If you thought Epstein friend David Copperfield could make things disappear, you never met Pam Bondi.

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

Happy crimmas! #atsmini #shortwave #radio #seasonsgreetings

First they came for AWS And I did not speak out Because Canvas was down and that was fine by me. Then they came for Cloudflare And I did not speak out Because I didn't need the textbook website. Then they came for GitHub And there were no more internet services For me to use to get work done.

We stand with survivors everywhere. Release the files, and jail the PDFs, including the ones in the White House. #EpsteinFiles #TrumpIsAPedo #JeffreyEpstein #50501movement

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

If you were looking at a newspaper (or its website) this morning and didn't see this iconic photo, it was an intentional choice to pander.

LA: “They took a US citizen father out and left a toddler in the backseat. Two heavily armed border patrol agents got in that car and drove the child and the vehicle away.” What are we doing?

Excessive force. PERIOD! They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor. 📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

“We don’t have illegal aliens… the legal term for my people were slaves….” 🚨This is what leadership looks and sounds like in 2025.✊🏼

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

NO KINGS!!

🚨 Mayor Brandon Johnson of Chicago answers this question brilliantly. 1/2

I just realized this album is 47 yrs old & I am NOT ok. I’ll be over in the corner sobbing if you need me 😭

Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague. And if the response from ICE to people exercising their first amendment right is to drive vehicles through them, they should not be an agency in the US.

Coming up later today, it my turn to sit in for Kim Andrew Elliot on @swradiogram.bsky.social . I'll be taking you on a visit to my town, Hope, British Columbia in Canada 🇨🇦 (the place where Pop Shop Radio is made) to give you a special look at the entries in this year's chainsaw carving competition

MA put in a 4% millionaires tax 2 years ago, & the GOP said we'd miss revenue targets & millionaires would flee. MA collected TWICE the projected revenues, & the number of millionaires went UP 40%. www.wbur.org/news/2025/04...

“The president cut your health care so he could build himself a golden ballroom” is a pretty easy message to sell

Crabocopter….. Love how it folds in claws to be more hydrodynamic after take off…. 🦀

Yesterday, Maurene Comey, who prosecuted the Epstein case, was summarily fired from SDNY. Her letter to colleagues pulls no punches. "Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought." h/t @msnbc.com

NASA is more than rockets and moonwalks. NASA is behind much of our everyday technology. From space discovery, to Air Jordans, to CAT scans, NASA has played a role. We get it all on less than a penny of every federal dollar. Now their science may be gutted by 50%. #NASADidThat

Is there any progressive answer to right wing media on the am or shortwave radio.

Let’s talk about weather balloons—a.k.a. radiosondes—and why recent cuts to NWS staffing and balloon launch schedules are putting the public at risk (eg., Deaths in Texas). No satellite or model can replace what these humble balloons do. Here's why. 🧵

Jokes for nerds. 😆

Skip the man cave and the she shed. Give me the attic #library. #books #booksky #WritingCommunity #design

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal." That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.

"How does it feel to get arrested at 87 years old? He said "I'm just beginning!"

BRENNAN: The public approval is so high of deportation PADILLA: It depends how you ask the question. If you ask the same people, 'Do you think we should maintain due process in the US?' the answer is overwhelmingly yes

There is no bottom: 80 year-old veteran arrested, arms handcuffed behind his back, even though he is physically disabled for protesting Trump’s military parade. Pure evil!

Isaac Asimov on, "If God is Dead, Everything is Permitted?"

Everyone in the past was neurotypical, which is how we got things like this single-author, eight-volume encyclopedia of ferns

What would it take to get the press to cover Trump’s cognitive freefall?

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.

Please take a moment out of your day to marvel at the elegance, agility and effortless natural grace of the penguin.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

Invest in HAM radios.

People are figuring this out. youtu.be/EnOx-HKBIwk?...

As the economic news keeps coming out over the coming weeks keep one thing in mind: this is the fault of one man and didn’t need to happen.

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

What if you’re so outrageously incompetent you get it done in a matter of minutes?

Carney: "The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation is over."
