A bunch of snot-nosed kids under Elon Musk taking a chainsaw to our government systems and randomly firing experienced federal workers. What could go wrong?

My local shelter os raising money for a much needed new building. Wish i knew @mcuban.bsky.social to ask him to hook them up. All i know (vicariously online) os @gailsimone.bsky.social They’re the same right? www.gofundme.com/f/support-st...

I have something controversial to say... I know it's that time of year & all, but I don't like tamales. Yes, this 6th gen Texan who will eat Mexican (Tex-Mex, whatever) food 7 days a week, doesn't like tamales. I will not take questions at this time.

I’m begging for help here - please share: Yesterday my bestie, Mom of 10 year old twins and survivor of thyroid cancer, underwent a double mastectomy for a new diagnosis of breast cancer. While she was in surgery, these assholes stole CANCER CARE PACKAGES off her front porch. 1/2

The American people have had enough of this two-tiered justice system where the ultrarich never face consequences. Ask your GOP Members of Congress what they will do to uphold the law they voted for, ensure the release of all the Epstein files, and give Epstein's survivors the justice they deserve.

I do wish more candidates and elected Dems would do this.

I find it more than ironic that at a time when almost the entire conservative moment is trying to defend their Dear Leader's relationship with the world's most notorious child sex trafficker, their new celeb of choice is the wife of a registered sex offender.

Dog came over to me and whined to be let outside and I said, "I can't take you out yet, there's a cat on me." She literally sighed and went to lie back down.

Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now—after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.

Share and tell CBS to air this! Sharyn Alfonsi, the veteran “60 Minutes” correspondent who reported a segment about migrants sent to the El Salvadoran torture prison CECOT, just sent a blistering letter to colleagues, sounding the alarm that Bari Weiss spiked the story for political reasons.

Call me a luddite, but I think having computers make up "news" to fit your bullshit narrative is bad.

Thank you @purplebirdhouse.bsky.social for the lovely Solstice card.

We’ve had enough of this two-tiered justice system where the ultrarich never face consequences. Tell your GOP Members of Congress that constituents aren’t letting them off the hook — Republicans backed the Epstein Transparency Act and now they need to ensure the law is upheld.

Rick Steves rules. Good dude!

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer. Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump. Now, it’s gone.

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

Four detainees dead in ICE custody over four days, swelling 2025's toll to 32 under Trump's arrest surge. Overcrowded pits starve medical aid, crushing lives in neglect's iron grip. #AbolishICE

An attorney general who hides evidence to protect the powerful forfeits the right to hold office. She should resign or be removed.

I’m convinced at this point we need damnatio memoriae for this administration. Refer to them as “the 47th administration” and demolish everything they ever did. Those $1 coins they’re gonna issue? Void em. The stupid ballroom? Burn it to the ground

It’s time to accept that the US supreme court is illegitimate and must be replaced | Ryan Doerfler and Samuel Moyn

Learned today that a dose of Skyrizi without insurance is $20-22K. I assume the drug is effective, but guys, that commercial is on every five minutes. Maybe funnel some of that advertising budget into reducing the medicine's cost. People who need it it will find it without hearing the song.

We accidentally watched 3 Cary Elwes movies the last 2 evenings on 3 different channels (yes, we have cable). We planned on The Princess Bride tonight, but managed to catch Men In Tights yesterday and Twister this evening. It almost seems inconceivable.

Remember how I said I have it written into my foreign-language contracts that my work has to be translated by an actual human? This shit is why. Those book translations are gonna suck. They'll save money putting out books that are going to be painful to read. That's not a great long-term strategy.

So we watched Teen Wolf & most of Men In Tights tonight. Did we miss anything that happened in the world?

Offering money to fund an illegal third presidential term isn’t protected speech. It’s conspiracy to violate the Constitution. Under 18 U.S.C. S371, money + coordination = overt acts. To pursue a known illegal act is a felony, even if it fails Who’s filing charges?

This post has been edited to add a link and context around new reporting from NOTUS (bsky.app/profile/anna...) that suggests the NCAR closure is related to a personal spat between Trump and Colorado's governor, which if true is shocking in its context.

House Democrats have introduced War Powers Resolutions to block further military assaults on Venezuela. We’re expecting a House vote this week, so call your representative ASAP and demand that they vote YES to check the regime’s lawless violence: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Ken Paxton has launched a snitch line to gather reports of supposed violations of Texas' transphobic bathroom policing law. Please do not abuse this snitch line. Please do not fill it with faff and nonsense. Please do not attach huge, unwieldy and irrelevant documentation to any reports.

McGovern: "When billionaire CEOs need something, Republicans move at lightning speed. But when it comes to working people needing affordable health care, suddenly the story changes. There's hand wringing and the money is gone. My friends, if you are ok with that, we do not share the same values."

Now this 👇is how to write an obituary for a racist. "A man would carry such a prejudice to his grave has undoubtedly gone to hell, if there is such a place and if not, a hell should be made for his especial benefit."

This is the sort of contract that if you were entertaining signing it, your friends should smash through a window, do roll on the floor, leap up in a feral pounce and slap it out of your hands

A naval blockade is historically & legally considered an act of war under international law. A Trump war would be catastrophic for the U.S. & if it truly escalates the damage it does to the country would be generational. Hit the phones and the streets #3E #NoTrumpWar

WTF?!?

Just got this notification. My business has a small shipment of Colombian tea currently in customs in Miami. We paid $965 for the tea. The Trump administration is taxing us an additional $142.84.

A quite startling overperformance for Democrats in tonight's special election for a state Senate seat in Kentucky: Democrat Gary Clemons won 72% to 25%. He was defending a Dem-held seat where Kamala Harris beat Trump by 5% last year.

Look at that. A country run by grown-ups!

Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII. One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing. The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.

Over six years ago, I published an 11,000 word article in The Atlantic (gift link below) explaining how Donald Trump was, beyond any question, mentally ill and unfit to hold any office of public trust. He has proven these points virtually every day since. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
