New: 404 Media is suing ICE. We have filed a lawsuit demanding ICE release its $2 million contract with Paragon, a company that makes powerful spyware to break into phones and read encrypted messages. This is expensive for a small outlet but this info is important www.404media.co/were-suing-i...

The Democratic Party is polling at 34% among all Americans. Abortion rights polls at 63% among all Americans. Yet party elites—who’ve failed at their jobs and handed the country to Trump—will try to tell you straight to your face that the problem is the latter, not the former.

To be clear: this entire “we’ve got to run more pro-lifers” insanity is because literally a week ago polling showed that Democrats would prefer politicians like AOC and Mamdani over Jefferies and Schumer by, let me emphasize this, a 20 point fucking margin. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

This might be an obvious question but why is any country now formally recognizing Palestine as a state arresting their own citizens for demanding Palestinians not be murdered by a rogue pariah regime (a crime against humanity supported by the same aforementioned country)

Congrats to Biden, the rest of the Democrats who supported the TikTok ban last year, and this guy specifically—they got what they wanted. Draconian censorship was necessary because the kids were pro-Palestine and struggling in Biden’s economy. And now—an even more concentrated media environment.

Hate to be *that* person but—this was a (yes, “guerrilla”) project I made in my senior year of art school, back in 2004…

if this post bothers you, if you are unable to draw a straight line between the imperial presidency/unitary executive/surveillance state building since at least bush 2 and never rolled back; if you cannot draw a straight line between the phony antisemitism moral panic and the kirk one: pls stay mad

hard to really take a lot of this kimmel shit that seriously, especially from people who were lockstep behind bringing militarized cops and paid goons down on college kids for calling a genocide a genocide. the horse has been walking very slowly out the barn for a while now

congrats to joe brandon and all the purported defenders of democracy who normalized cracking heads on student protestors in order to cover for israeli genocide. you really greased the skids for ol donnie trump to formally submarine the first amendment

True, though where were you guys with this energy when people were being fired and blacklisted and beaten by cops and beaten by pro-Israel thugs and censored on media platforms for saying Israel was committing a genocide under Biden's watch

Hold on, these are the "we don't have to bake your gay wedding cake" people?

This is the same guy.

Bring @chrislehmann.bsky.social back as editor. This, let’s call it, intentionally misleading mistake (?) wouldn’t have stood under his watch

All I can say from my vantage point (and without violating an NDA) is watching truth-tellers forced out of institutions while the ones who’ve willingly censored themselves continue to carry water for those same institutions, who are only capitulating further to the right—is incredibly demoralizing.

rightwingers driving around pissing themselves off that businesses don’t have their flags at half mast is maybe one of the funniest things i’ve ever seen

I see a lot of liberals horrified that people are losing their jobs over Charlie Kirk and I have to ask where this energy was when people were losing their jobs over Palestine

It’s actually impressive how the Democratic party managed to have the two worst possible members in positions of leadership at the exact moment of history they needed the opposite the most.

Fun fact: we’ve never had a president from Maryland… yet. We’ve had one from Delaware, and that’s shameful as Delaware is a supremely inferior state in comparison

*sobbing through tears* Nice

We’ve been living through 72 nonstop hours of this exact tweet

“the real problem is leftist cancel culture” I write as the right wing tries to force half the country to censor themselves under fear of death threats and losing their jobs

"On the last episode of his show before he was killed," Kirk told "his audience, falsely, that “one in 22 Black men will be a murderer in their lifetime” and that “by age of 23, half of all Black males have been arrested and not enough of them have been arrested.”

Feel like I’m going insane with the revisionist history that Charlie Kirk fostered open debate. He chilled speech and his targeting of professors for wrongthink led to threats, harassment, and being forced out of their jobs. His legacy is chilling speech right now, about him

A Christmas Carol, 2025: After Scrooge is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Future and horrified by his rotten reputation as the universal villain, instead of looking inward and realizing what a horrible person he’s been, he sends mobs to hunt down and/or fire everyone who spoke ill of him in death

I have two: 1) The Hour (2011) 2) the muppets (2015)

There were more than 120 domestic terrorist attacks, in which there were 11 murders, in the United States during the “relative calm” of the 1980s and 1990s. They just all happened to be at abortion clinics, so I guess those don’t count.

This is century-defining stuff.

i was at [a major newsroom] pre-covid. i spent the weekend (on my own dime) covering a patriot front march through DC. they had a full police + helicopter escort. i sent the video to my editors. they said that I was "scaring people," by merely informing them the militia was out in force.

Kirk/Fuentes supporters sound like violent gangs to me. Better round ‘em all up and deport them. Get ‘em off our streets so the Real Americans can enjoy their own country again

Every editorial board, columnist, cable news panel, and polling outfit that uses terms like “very conservative” or “very liberal” simply cannot comprehend these kinds of intra-party factions, which is why no one feels represented by these places and they’re losing their audience to the internet.

the concept of being a guy who didn’t think the Yankees represented the Evil Empire until the last 24 hours

As I say every 9/11, everyone watch Aaron McGruder’s lecture at Emory University from 2002. 23 years later, every single word is still relevant. He calls out the Bush administration, the Democrats, the media. There’s even a reference to Israel. And it’s funny as hell. www.c-span.org/program/publ...

Behold, the best 9/11 humor of all time: The Onion's TV listings (my favorite row is MTV)

relax folks, this guy is trolling the right

@willsommer.bsky.social wrote the piece Klein was trying to write without the maddening Liberal impulse to sanitize Kirk's fascism with "you gotta hand it to him" and "he was just a patriot who loved his country". You can talk about Kirk's undeniable influence without calling it "The Right Way," ffs

How in the actual fuck does he get the Brad Stevens treatment without even winning one (1) playoff game in 7 years.

Why are young people not rallying to protect institutions like the Democratic Party (which calls them antisemites), universities (which call them antisemites), and traditional journalism and media (which call them antisemites)?

I got around to reading this closely and it's an easy education in how David Shor rigs things. The tested messaging on deploying the National Guard is actually shit - so they lead you to conclude that the *focus* is shit, instead of the fact that the test message is (deliberately) shit

In its alleged fight against antisemitism, the Trump administration has relied on two groups with murky funders—one of which is in Israel. Here's my deep dive @thebaffler.com into Canary Mission and Betar, two extreme Zionist groups at the heart of Trump's crackdown. thebaffler.com/latest/for-b...

Deeply unsettling thing to say when we as a society have normalized the torture and slaughter of animals by the millions on a daily basis

Oh my god he looks like Jonah Ryan

Now this is a journalist who deserves respect.

Tim Walz : trans rights are human rights JB Pritzker : we’re taking names of all you fuckers and coming after you Gavin Newsom : lol my pr firm made another meme while i guest starred on another right wing podcast

This is a ridiculous deal for an extremely important book... usually these deals are only on Amazon so pick it up support an author and a local bookstore at Bookshop.org.

once again the kinda thing that'd be too on the nose if satire
