Lol. Lmao even.

“And, as it also turns out, much of the reality-based press is doing a poor job of even acknowledging that they have a role in saving democracy, much less doing anything about it.” @sulliview.bsky.social brings the receipts. open.substack.com/pub/margaret...

Trump is killing low level suspected drug traffickers who are not in the U.S. and he's letting a drug cartel mastermind who was convicted by DOJ, and is serving 45 years in the U.S., out of prison. Money and power have a grip on America's corrupt president. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/29/n...

Unvaccinated infants are the second most likely group to get hospitalized for Covid after older adults. Any effort to minimize the effectiveness for kids is evil.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

19 year old freshman just wants to go home for Thanksgiving to see her family, she gets deported to Honduras. Former President of Honduras who’s serving 45 years in prison for drug trafficking? He gets a full presidential pardon. Both are Honduran. Only one is a criminal.

After Marty Makary claimed, with no evidence, that COVID19 vaccines killed children, Defend Public Health published this report on the topic. Now Prasad is making the same claims. These are not “unbiased” people. We don’t trust them & neither should you. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Thanks to every one of you who turned up and demanded #climate action! #auspol @risingtideaus.bsky.social

If they used their publicly funded library to read up on the topic…oh hell.

Oh my. When you've lost the Babylon Bee …

The fucking irony of this Jew to cape Third Reich white supremacist talking points BECAUSE his grandparents could assimilate into US culture when whiteness expanded just enough for them. (One day he might find that this same conditional whiteness he was granted is more conditional+ less secure.)

Breakfast pie is the best pie.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

False consciousness is believing your oppressors are to be looked up to as pillars of democratic society. Class consciousness shows you they are anything but. They exist to enforce the rule of capital.

Speaker Mike Johnson has reportedly told the White House that most Republicans aren't interested in extending ACA subsidies. Reminder that 57% of ACA Marketplace enrollees live in congressional districts represented by a Republican. They're selling out their own voters.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

really important advice for folks planning on ACA insurance

Na na na na Na na na na Hey hey hey Goodbye

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business. The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay. It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders. Textbook corporate greed.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone. Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work. Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences. It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Don't do this!

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Child killer RFK Jr. has CDC website changed to make false claims re vaccines and autism contrary to promises made at his confirmation hearing. Vaccines save lives and do not cause autism. #Medsky www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

BREAKING: Federal judge rejects DOJ's effort to subpoena the names and medical records of children who have received gender-affirming medical care from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A gunman tried to silence my wife in an extreme act of political violence. Now, Trump has called for my execution because he didn’t like what I had to say. Gabby and I know, when others try to silence you, you must keep speaking out — and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.

"I fired 5 rounds & she had 7 holes. Put that in your book, boys." That's what the #ICE agent who rammed US Citizen, Miramar Martinez & shot her 5 times. Then ICE lied & said she rammed them. #ICELawlessness abounds. If it can happen to them, it can happen to you! So speak out & share! Link⬇️

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

Just so we’re all clear: A swastika is a hate symbol. Real men don’t call women ‘piggy’. Vaccines do not cause autism. Calling for the execution of sitting members of Congress is fascist. And it’s the Gulf of Mexico.

This does feel like a major crossing of the Rubicon – the world's best-funded and in many ways most powerful public health agency is now actively pushing disinformation. I know there's a *lot* going on to care about at the moment, but this one really is significant, and matters well beyond the US.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Turning the military on citizens. Attempting to rig elections. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political opponents and calling for their executions. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Corruption.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Personalized gold bars from the Swiss. Used jumbo jet from Qatar. Huge amounts of $$$ from crypto. The amount of corruption in the White House is at unconscionable levels. We need some real serious ethics across the federal government.

wrote about the president’s flagrant and destructive corruption in a column that references street fighter, the simpsons, machiavelli, and a host of revolutionary-era americans (gift link)

Piggy says what?

The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121. #epstein

Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years. Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024. It’s far past time for Medicare for All. Here’s what you need to know.

Don't do any of this.
