Reupping this great SP! Thank you Lauren! 🤗

Orwell said it best. Authoritarians want to keep you stupid. Accept disinformation. Believe propaganda. Never question authority. Why else would you buy the dumb flags, wear the dumb clothes and storm the Capitol when you’re told?

A great takedown of "big wellness" through the prism of Attia and Epstein "As a woman, I cannot imagine taking expert health advice from Attia seriously at this point, given the gross and dehumanizing way he talked about the female anatomy in his emails with Epstein." (Gift link )

A federal court has blocked Trump’s shutdown of America's biggest critical infrastructure project - which makes sense, since he's violating legal commitments the federal government made in good faith on my watch.

I hate that (Competitive) Shit. Only a Crook would approve of a Currency that Competes With Their Own Dollar...??

I believe they will lose the midterms without the post but I definitely see this sealing their fate. This toxic behavior isn’t sustainable for anyone anywhere from someone on the world stage. There is no one this administration hasn’t touched. #SheShed #Pinks #Peace

Love ❤️ Freeman after dark!

Enjoy your coffee ☕️ Joanne and let’s hope Heather cleaning the b/r 🧼 is quick! 😅🤗🫶🏻

The idea that tyranny or cruelty come from powerful personalities is a false notion, as these traits are weaknesses. ”Any man who must say, 'I am the king' is no true king.” Tywin Lannister (George R.R. Martin, A Storm of Swords / Game of Thrones) #DEFENDDEMOCRACY Thread 15/15🧵

He can claim he didn’t post it but we all know. End racism by ending this administration! Vote every republican out of office! people.com/trump-shares...

So far it seems like the mainstream media is mostly ignoring Trump posting a video of the Obamas as apes

Dozens of articles yesterday reported on Trump's rambling, profane remarks at National Prayer Breakfast. But I was only 1 to cover the more dangerous #ChristianNationalist remarks by Pete Hegseth: publicwitness.wordandway.org/p/at-nationa...

The case also reveals a Trump tried and true tactic: that when his popularity is sinking overall, he tries to give his white evangelical base a little boost, this time with prosecuting black people for supposedly violating white evangelicals' religious freedom. redcircle.com/shows/fbed71...

Trump and Pam Bondi have complained that DOJ under Biden "weaponized" government against Christians. They claim to have set out to "eradicate" that "anti-Christian bias." That's why he pardoned anti-abortion clinic blockaders and she's prosecuting anti-ICE protesters. redcircle.com/shows/fbed71...

Over my many years covering about white evangelicals and dominionism, people often asked me: what would it actually look like for them to achieve their goal of taking over the government? We are now finding out. Listen to the latest Reign of Error episode:

Happy Friday friends! ☕️⛅️🌻 “Don’t give up the ship.” Credit @slotkin.senate.gov Keep fighting! Just show up if you’re unable to do anything more! Strength in numbers!

Sen. Elissa Slotkin is refusing to voluntarily comply with the Justice Department investigation into that video she organized urging U.S. military members to resist illegal orders. Slotkin's legal team is requesting Jeanine Pirro preserve all relevant documents for "anticipated litigation."

Don the con is such a small handed, petty, racist, little narcissist that will never measure up to president Barack Obama! #NotMyPresident

And this is how Republican PACS steal elections with Citizens United. Vote Kat Abughazaleh!!!

He is N🚫T board certified in anything!

Bari Weiss is digging her heels in the sand on Peter Attia, after the new CBS contributor was revealed to have had a cozy relationship with Epstein. What her silence signals about how she's dealing with the matter & what it says about her leadership in @status.news: www.status.news/p/peter-atti...

Peter Attia never finished a residency and isn’t board certified in anything. Yet, he’s made millions suggesting he knows more than anyone else on “longevity medicine.” Add in his vile private behavior, and somehow Bari Weiss is still advocating for him?

I don’t believe Tom Homan. I think this is a ploy to get @democrats.senate.gov to fund DHS. They lied about deescalation last week and I don’t believe a word the Cava Czar says.

CASTEN: I want to read you a quote -- 'tariffs are inflationary and would strengthen the dollar.' Do you recognize it? BESSENT: You're referring to a letter a wrote. Tariffs could be inflationary CASTEN: No no. It says 'tariffs are inflationary.' Do you want to correct the record?

In the past week we've learned ICE has secured property to build human warehouses in Merrimack, NH and Williamsport, MD. Just some facts I think bear repeating.

this is a wicked man who knows he is being wicked and does it anyway

My uncle Howard Simons was Managing Editor of WaPost during Watergate. What a sad day for #USDemocracy

If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.

“If you build it they will fill it!” ~ Rachel Maddow @maddow.bsky.social

Elon Musk's net worth just hit $800 billion. How? One of his corporations acquired another one of his corporations. Meanwhile, Elon's companies pay next to nothing in federal income taxes and get billions of dollars in government contracts. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
