Lol they’re rounding up and arresting anyone with construction experience

One thing that was reiterated this week: Money ≠ Intelligence

The skeleton key to understanding reactionary conservatism is quite simple: they are scared, all the time, of everything.

Look how that Overton window just sliiiiiides First it was "illegal" immigrants criminals Then it was it was simply immigrants Then it's lawful us residents/green card holders Now it's criminal us citizens GUESS WHO'S NEXT

Tariffs will be lifted on penguins who agree to be completely white. by Stephen Miller

It’s so weird how we’re all just working like this is still a normal country.

France is moving far too fast against Marine Le Pen. by Merrick Garland

This is going to get worse, not better. Never underestimate the American public’s thirst for performative cruelty towards The Other: defendants, foreigners, anyone they’ve been conditioned to see as less than human. We’re the country that made lynchings into picnics.

I appreciate that Jeffrey Goldberg did not sit on this news for a book that he writes two years from now

(1/X) Can this country to back to the way it was before Trump? No, it cannot. Narcissistic sociopaths break things in ways that can't be fixed.

Probably my favorite video.

What came first: the right-wing podcaster or the brain worms? @taylorlorenz.bsky.social joins me on this week's episode of Bubble Pop. We're breaking down the right-wing dominance of online media (hint hint: no, they aren't just organically popular). Here's a taste:

Department of Education illegally dismantled by some dads who are still upset about that one day their kid came home from school and told them they’d learned about a Black person

Facebook is cancer

An entire administration of 12-year-old boys trying to act tough. Read the statement below and then look at this dweeb.

Whether it's the Navajo code talkers helping to defeat the Nazis or it's Nazis removing all mention of the Navajo code talkers from the US military's website, the conflict between Nazis and Navajo code talkers has continued for over 80 years.

You know what they got there? Americans...

Fentanyl is very much like a weapon of mass destruction in the sense that Republicans like to lie about finding it and then use that lie as a justification to do ruinous, destructive things

Taxes must be raised on the richest, and they must be forced to pay them. That is the solution.

It's so hard to grasp just how utterly evil these people are

Drop some WEAPONRY

Federal Conservative politicians are seeing much higher engagement on social media than Liberal or NDP politicians, a boost that can mostly be attributed to Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter in 2022.

Hitler sent people he called ‘terrorists’ to concentration camps with no due process. But so did Stalin and Mao. So both sides.

David Bowie’s The Man Who Sold The World and Hunky Dory are two of the greatest albums ever made, but both were flops at the time, and Bowie almost gave up so to just write songs for other artists. Just keep buggering on, if you can.

Trump openly defying the courts, confirming all the warnings of a constitutional crisis. Here's a kidney transplant specialist on H1-B w great fellowships/training programs -- Ohio State, University of Washington, and Yale. Phone seized, lawyer unable to even contact her during her detainment.

So it’s over then, works for me

Tesla lost enough value today that it could have fully funded USAID for a year.

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup

worth saying again that this was a bait and switch. if trump had openly announced he was running on allowing companies to discriminate against women and minorities he would not have won wapo.st/43aVQg1

Lol my first trip to twitter jail

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

Smaug was a job creator, he earned that mountain of gold. Plus he had autism, which is why it sometimes looked as though he was burning people to death with his fire-breath.

I’m not watching. Trump threatened my country and all he cares about is ratings.
