My friend wrote this book “Our Souls Collided” she used my name as the name for the main character. I maybe bias, but this is such a great read. It has it all, life, trauma, healing, family and above all love. Please support my friend and buy a copy. #blacksky #lesbian #booksky a.co/d/7aseN8Y

Stephen froze like a deer in the headlights and pretended to have connection issues because he unintentionally gave away the game plan. “Plenary authority is complete, absolute power over a specific area or issue, with no significant limitations." Show people this clip. This is an insane slip up.

Should’ve thought about when they were out here lining up to jiggle Trump’s balls. Fuck them.

Shiiiiiiiiiit I’d blow the devil.

If Republicans don’t pass our bill to reopen the government and extend ACA tax credits, millions of families will see their health care costs soar. Here's just one example of a MD couple who would see their costs nearly TRIPLE — a health catastrophe and another Trump betrayal:

I co-wrote Trump’s first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-18. He’s not trying to stop “left-wing” terrorism. He is staging it. His troop deployments are a false flag — meant to provoke a response in order to justify harsh crackdowns. This is now very obvious.

I say to my friend: I want to date/fall in love with and marry an incredible black woman, a sorority beauty, who’s a Scorpio to my Taurus - a woman who is - strong, independent, sensual, demanding, and quirky… My friend’s response in my ability: media2.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2l...

"Go to where the people are, and just talk straight." @janefonda.com talks her antiwar activism and bypassing the deeply polarized, siloed media with @timmiller.bsky.social on today's Bulwark Podcast:

The dominion lawsuit would be chump change compare to what I would rain down on Fox News. I’d so to them what Beulah Mae Donald did to the United Klans of America (UKA).

This is the way. Phenomenal.

Meet Adam Kincaid: the hand behind the Texas GOP’s latest redistricting push. He’s shaped some of the most extreme gerrymanders in recent years, including Texas’s new congressional map. And this week, he’ll take the stand to defend it in court. https://bit.ly/42o8F5q

What the fuck?!

Everyone is trying to have a normal Saturday night and the president's top advisor is on X announcing that civil war is necessary

About 1 in 4 U.S. adults worry they or someone close to them could be deported, according to a June @pewresearch.org survey.

🔥 Finally an EU leader says it out loud: “We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks that are controlled either by large American entrepreneurs or large Chinese companies, whose interests are not at all the survival or proper functioning of our democracies.”

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

Facts.

I’m mad that I never learned how to double dutch this good as a kid 😭

$200k to hang out with dogs. amazing IG gabriel.desanti, barkandburn

I don’t give a fuck about these farmers. They voted for Trump by 77.7%. They’re getting exactly what they deserve. investigatemidwest.org/2024/11/13/t...

Funny how Sleepy Joe Biden managed to get through an entire term of a presidency without the government shutting down. Something Troubled Trump has not been able to do. Either time.

"But I said your Nazi salute wasn't a Nazi salute!" "And this gives you power over me?"

In case it wasn’t clear, the anti-DEI crusade has never been about merit. Zero news experience. Never been a reporter. Elevated to Editor in Chief of CBS News, one of the most storied news institutions in the nation. www.mediaite.com/media/news/p...

Remember kids, every accusation is actually a confession.

EMERGENCY MEDICAID REIMBURSES HOSPITALS FOR CARE TO UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS BECAUSE BY LAW HOSPITALS CANNOT TURN AWAY ANYONE IN AN EMERGENCY. RONALD REGAN SIGNED THIS INTO LAW.

Bwahahahahahahaha … fckn welpity Welp!

If you read just one article today, make it this one. By the unrivaled Carole Cadwalladr, it's as disturbing as it is insightful. @thenerve.news has made a big first impression.

If Harvard bows down to this lawless president, it will cover itself in shame and betray its motto “Veritas.” Don’t pretend to stand for truth if you’re going to surrender to this bully. Appeasement only feeds the beast and puts us all at greater risk.

The Asians students who allowed themselves to be used in the 2023 Affirmative Action case as tools really screwed black students when the majority of their parents profit off black communities by having stores and restaurants in those communities which affords them the ability to go to Ivy colleges.

Charlie Kirk is treated as a symbol of America itself. But there's nothing more American than the story of Trey Reed — a young Blk man, found hanging from a tree, his death hastily ruled "case closed" by officials. My latest at The Nation: www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Here’s the state of play: • Trump wants this shutdown to dodge Epstein files. • MAGA blocked release & refused to seat a Democrat to shield him. • Democrats will cut ties with anyone linked • MAGA must stop covering for predators—release the files. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Mike Johnson on the shutdown: "It can provide an opportunity to downside the scope and scale of government, which is something that we've always wanted to do. So in a way Chuck Schumer has now handed the keys to the kingdom the executive branch under President Trump."

🚨ICE Is Buying a Tool to Track Hundreds of Millions of Phones, Without Warrants Please read, share, and sound the alarm

JD Vance: We have people who require food assistance, who will not get it unless we reopen the government (Trump's budget bill cuts SNAP for millions of Americans)

What in the actual fuck?! Is he high or drunk or both?!

If the Republican shutdown happens, I've requested that my congressional salary be withheld until it ends. If Congress can't do their job, federal workers - including the thousands I represent in Virginia - won't get paid. As leaders, we need to share in the sacrifice.

Exhibit A at The Hague just dropped

Today’s the last day of government funding and Republicans are doing NOTHING to make sure kids, families, and seniors have access to affordable health care and thousands of civil servants get paid while serving their country.

Hegseth: "A few months ago I was at the White House when President Trump announced his liberation day for America's trade policy. It was a landmark day. Well, today is another liberation day. The liberation of America's warriors ... you kill people and break things for a living."

Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband. Today they attacked two journalists. We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.

Mmmmm MAGA how y’all feelin’ now?! Ya… bunch of dummies.

Priztker: if federal agents fired upon journalists and protesters, when unprovoked, what would we call it?  I don't think we'd have any trouble calling it what it is. Authoritarianism.  So let's not pretend it's something else when it happens in our American cities.

"After his release, the 79 year old U.S. citizen was treated at a local hospital for multiple broken ribs, a dislocated elbow..." ktla.com/news/79-year... www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Birds of a feather.

The state could have backed him but instead they demonstrated for the thousandth time that there is no level of respectability that will prevent white people from serving you up on a platter in order to appease powerful racists.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Just wanna specify something: This thought stemmed from watching the ReLiving Single podcast (S1 E8) when they discussed Max representing Khadijah. This wasn’t a topic about labor; it was a thought exercise about the diversity of friends we have. I appreciate y’all who had fun w/ this…THANK YOU!

Dana Goodyear’s house burned in the L.A. fires. When she returned to her neighborhood a week later, “it was a mangled, flattened field as far as I could see in every direction,” she writes. “I drove right past my address and had to circle back.”

This is what happens when you sell your soul for power, because as a child you had none.
