Remember how all the people with cooler heads said comparing them with nazis was being hysterical

Mystified by Dems worriedly telling everyone to be careful because the letter is probably fake. There's no proof it's fake. Just take the win! Act like Republicans for once and run with it. Assume it's real. Donald Trump is a pedophile. Make headlines. Do TikTok videos. Shove it down their throats.

My son & I met Jinkx Monsoon & BenDelaCreme. They were absolutely sweethearts, gave us hugs, & chatted with us for a short, but sweet bit. I love them. They bring much needed joy, comedy, & compassion into this world. This year's show was amazing. Go to JinkxandDela.com if you want to stream it.

Massie: "Blanche is using a different theory that wouldn't survive first contact with any court, which is he's trying to say that prior laws override our law. That's not the way this works."

This study does not have equipoise. It is proven that the newborn hep B vaccine dose reduces the risk of primary liver cancer & other liver diseases (eg this RCT had 30 yrs of follow-up: journals.plos.org/plosmedicine...). It is unethical to deliberately withhold the birth dose to “see what happens”

I don't choose violence in my daily life, but Jake Paul and Andrew Tate both getting their asses kicked within about a 24 hour period is something I can appreciate.

This is getting out of hand. AI making up papers which then get innocently listed with authors' other publications online which then get cited, puzzling authors who never wrote such things …

As Google prepares to integrate so-called AI ‘agents’ into its Chrome browser, this also introduces new vulnerabilities into the browser. What are they doing to lower risk, and what can you do about it? Check out our digital security newsletter to follow along.

Democrats have been busy working to bring down Americans’ sky-high housing costs. Republicans are standing in the way.

GOP Rep. Thomas Massie and Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna plan to draft articles of impeachment against AG Pam Bondi over the DOJ’s failure to release all Epstein files as required by law.

Hands up! Who is not surprised that the Epstein Files release turned out to be a big fat nothing, just like our pedo (p)resident?

WATCH-- Former AG Eric Holder says Congress should consider impeachment for the DOJ officials responsible for holding back the Epstein files: “That's a nuclear option that Congress has.”

I fully expect this administration has done everything possible to tamper with the Epstein files and protect Trump. I have zero confidence the release will change anything. But I will say the administration and House Republicans are certainly acting like something very bad is coming.

WASH POST: “A retired Tennessee policeman who spent more than a month in jail over an anti-Trump Facebook post is suing the authorities… Larry Bushart filed a lawsuit in federal court Wednesday against a sheriff, an investigator and Perry County…” www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Once again a reminder: We can have trans rights, bodily autonomy, gender nonconformity, and freedom of expression, or we can have none of these things. There’s no third option.

I cannot emphasize how serious an assault on democracy this is. Any effort by the Trump administration to engage in false claims of fraud or mass voter suppression relies on this as a building block. As importantly, there is no legitimate reason DOJ would want this information.

If I were the enemy, installing a bunch of paedophiles in the US government would be a wet dream. Well... »Democrats on the House oversight committee release another tranche of images, including ones of the intellectual Noam Chomsky and the tech billionaire Bill Gates« 🎁 link (no paywall)

Boy, deranged sleepy trump and his ass-kissing minions are throwing everything but the kitchen sink at us. Could this have something to do with the release of the Epstein Files that's supposed to happen tomorrow?

Trump: “One year ago, our country was dead!” The Economist, one year ago:

Senate News: Republicans are trying to sneak a provision into their latest government funding bill that would make it easier to sell off public lands and national parks, and may have the votes to do it. If you care about protecting your public lands, now’s the time to make it known.

The Community Safety Firearms Act is now law. Because of fierce advocates who turned pain into purpose, Oregon is safer. We banned bump stocks and devices designed for mass casualty. We strengthened protections in schools and neighborhoods.

Rob Reiner was the consummate storyteller. Over and over, he revealed us to ourselves: what it is to be young and have friends, to fall in love, to feel misery and vengeance, to feel alive. And the laughs. So many laughs. The loss of Rob Reiner is... inconceivable.
