Prime example of white privilege in plain sight. Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

KARL: “Why haven’t you sworn in Adelita Grijalva?” SPEAKER JOHNSON: “I’m following the Pelosi precedent with Letlow.” KARL: “But that was the date Letlow requested.” SPEAKER JOHNSON: 🤷🏼 #EpsteinFilesCoverUp

Hey fucking red alert

seems that RFK is clearing the path for his CDC to do tuskegee syphillis experiments as a matter of course. in other news, RFK is a genuine monster who relishes in the pain and suffering of those he feels he has control or dominion over

This one is gonna hurt. But yeah that's a dealbreaker

BREAKING: Microsoft, $MSFT, leaders worried that meeting OpenAI’s rapidly escalating compute demands could lead to overbuilding servers that might not generate a financial return, per the Information

Russians started a human safari in Pokrovsk too. Videos are just civilians getting slaughtered under the surveillance of a drone. This will obviously not make it to headlines but please don’t let russians kill in silence

Not usually a Freudian, but damn

Watch how the media reports yesterday’s march. Outlets that don’t report it, or dramatically downplay it are showing you precisely who they are. When it matters.

for the love of all that is holy WHY CAN YOU NOT DESCRIBE THE PLAIN REALITY OF THE VIDEO

If you're hung up on your whiteness, maleness, or heterosexuality you probably don't have much else to recommend you. Your privilege is the only way to get your foot in the door. The bond between MAGA types is that they recognize each other as fellow losers. This bond is their greatest asset.

Trump: America's Hitler...

Was DC’s ‘No Kings’ protest a ‘hate rally’? @premthakker.bsky.social brings you inside the US capital’s huge, historic mobilization — and speaks to Mehdi Hasan, Bill Nye, Chris Murphy, Al Green, and the protesters. @mehdirhasan.bsky.social Watch and read more: zeteo.com/p/no-king-tr...

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Every post about the Santos pardon makes you remember anew that Ivana is buried on a golf course.

"Think of this as the equivalent of participation in a faith community that meets to worship—a regular practice to guard against loneliness and despair, and check in with others going through a similar experience.”

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.

The 30-second video from the National Republican Senatorial Committee is raising alarms among many observers who warn it crosses a new boundary in politics and could unleash a flood of AI-generated deepfake attack ads.

"The Supreme Court Case That Could End Free and Fair Elections" As Trump pressures states to redraw electoral maps to favor Republicans, the nation's far-right justices appear poised to weaken the Voting Rights Act and silence American minority voters:

it's fascinating that the american government is shutdown and the federal government is uh... doing forum raids

MAGA folks don’t understand that the culture of Bluesky involves everyone just blocking people they don’t like without any engagement. They think they’re “shadowbanned” by some unseen force from above.

It has the feeling of Hitler & Speer, planning Berlin's makeover.

Historian here No Kings is the most American thing you could say and the people opposing it simply don’t believe in our republic or constitutional democracy.

lol. this is our world now. The oligarchs rule, sorta. But the politics itself is unstable. And they’re casting around for the sweet spot of safety.

What a thug trash administration.

Among George Santos’ many scams was a “pet charity” where he swindled people out of money who needed it for medical care for their pets. This is who Trump just pardoned www.nytimes.com/2023/02/09/n...

I am reel Amrecan from Tennessee oblast, you should not go No King rally, very dangerous, they will get you photo and put black bag on babushka.

JUST IN: Judge Mehta threatens contempt and bar sanctions for attorney Carolyn Stewart — who has repped numerous Jan. 6 defendants and pardon recipients — over filing a motion with “fabricated” citations to local rules and refusing to correct it.

What happens when the military is inevitably handed illegal orders? Who’s going to stand up? Will they have the courage?

Facts don’t care about the GOP’s feelings — there’s nothing more American than rejecting a mad king. Please join us tomorrow: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Their aspirations are totalitarian. As horrifying as the immediate fascist project of racist terror against nonwhite immigrants is, all political opposition are “antifa”, and they want to surveil and arrest all of us. Our aspirations have to be correspondingly big: abolish ICE…\1 wapo.st/4nWuulq

Hahaha

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton. I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

Trump tells SCOTUS that protests in Illinois constitute "a rebellion or danger of rebellion"

Yup. The thing that endangers officers isn't that people say "fascism." It's that people can see them doing the fascism, whether or not anybody uses the term.

John Roberts take note

If everyone is radical, it's not radical.

On top of detaining U.S. citizens, ICE is now fining legal residents for not carrying their papers. It was never about going after the “worst of the worst.” It was always about cruelty.

Ha ha ha 😥

​Welcome to No Kings Eve. Trump is sounding and behaving kingly, and Republicans are at DEFCON 1 on the desperation meter. You can tell by their hallucinatory talking points, which are untethered from both reality and the Constitution. New from me at @msnbc.com: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

This is how a one-party state happens

If you think the problem in this city is that my rent is too low, vote for Andrew Cuomo. If you know the problem in this city is that your rent is too high, vote for me.

Himes: If you've got the capability to blow a boat out of the water, you've got the capability to interdict it, arrest everyone on board, interrogate them, and find out where it was going, where it came from, who the bosses are, and what the distribution networks look like.

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that. No phones, no staff, nothing. I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!
