Last night’s sky saying #TransRights 🏳️‍⚧️ And it’s beautiful.

Releasing a health care plan is not negotiating. It's...releasing a health care plan. Odd that the House speaker doesn't understand that basic point.

The East Wing is traditionally the domain of the First Lady. Hard not to see this as a family metaphor too.

I’m reading abut improvements in male contraceptives that may soon reach the market. However, one effective new product…”now in phase 3 [trial]…causes side effects such as acne, hair loss, weight gain & apparently increased libido” We’ve always worried about MEN accepting male contraceptives…

BREAKING: Paul Ingrassia, who was nominated to lead the Office of Special Counsel by Trump, withdraws after offensive text messages were revealed where he claimed he was a Nazi. Trump hires the “best people”.

🤯

Donald Trump, ‘No Kings,’ and the ‘3.5 Percent Rule’ talkingpointsmemo.com/where-things...

Yes, mook. The President of the United States was effective at conveying to his nation that he wishes to dump feces on whatever plurality of its citizens are opposed to him and his policies. Statesmanship to remember alongside that of the greats. Leadership so rare.

Just wow! 🤩

Good grief. I actually remember watching this when it came out just before the Bicentennial. I thought the king shit was ancient history and yet here we are.

Now say something about Trump.

“O ye that love mankind! Ye that dare oppose, not only the tyranny, but the tyrant, stand forth!” PS. - maybe Thomas Paine

... the Law for the Re-establishment of the Civil Service and its individual paragraphs allowed civil servants to be demoted, involuntarily retired, laid off with a lump sum, or sacked without any pension or payoff. PS. - Sebastian Haffner,  Defying Hitler: A Memoir

Wherever you go , there you are.

“White House deputy chief of staff Stephen and his podcaster wife, Katie Miller, have fled their Arlington home after peaceful chalk messages were left on the sidewalk.“ Now imagine if armed, masked men were hunting you and your family like animals.

“Dear Leader also got a hole in one the very first time he played golf at the age of four.”

When Schumer defends norms, he comes across as defending a status quo that he has known his whole career. When @petebuttigieg.bsky.social or @aoc.bsky.social defend those things, they are making an argument about a future they would like to see. For us to win we need to be the party of change.

Reuters reporting this blatant crime as if it’s a lunch date is a prime example of the kind of careless, aloof normalization in journalism that has greased the skids of this catastrophic authoritarian power grab.

Shorter Mike Johnson: Beating up a woman isn’t “really serious.”

Here you go, @mary94930.bsky.social

NEW: Adrian Fontes has CERTIFIED the results of the AZ-07 election of Adelita Grijalva. Mike Johnson is OUT of EXCUSES and should swear her in.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it. The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait. At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Promoting the editor-in-chief's personal side project. Zero named sources in a story that promotes the editor-in-chief's personal political position. Misspelling the subject's name. It took one day for CBS News to become a conservative blog. www.cbsnews.com/video/some-n...

The Trump administration has promoted the anti-vax, anti-science movement which has now produced an epidemic www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

One of the many things I wish I had been wrong about is saying that back in the nineties, our leaders looked at climate change and said: We can’t do shit about this without measures we find unacceptable, so future generations will just have to deal with it via machine guns, fences and attack dogs.

Not enough news outlets are making it absolutely clear that last night’s RIFs are unlawful

Number of days since Republicans shut down the government to carry out their Project 2025 agenda and protect the Epstein files: Eleven.

Please! Somebody copy this with text, “RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!“ Then join the Trump/Miller/Noem/Thiel et al resistance crowds throughout the US.

As I observed in my Substack Round Up this past week, the endgame of the military strikes against drug cartels in international waters is to lay the groundwork to use lethal military force against Americans at home. Pay attention open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

Among many others at the CDC, the Trump regime laid off the staff of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. “The publication’s storied history includes a June 1981 report that five previously healthy gay men were treated for an unusual pneumonia — the first hint of the AIDS epidemic.”

They must be with Antifa.

⬇️ Notice the eagle: pissed & ready to strike.

Only a government run by billionaires would berate its employees for not wanting to work without pay.

Wow.

Yes, you can hide from man but not your conscience You eat the bread of sorrow Drink the wine of violence Allow yourself to be conquered by the serpent Why did you disobey the first commandment ~ Buju Banton, 1995

It's harder for fascism to cement in a joyful, healthy community.

If People Magazine wants to restore their credibility, they'll recognize me as Sexiest Man Alive. I've earned it.

Congratulations to Maria Corina Machado, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize - her incredible optimism has already changed her country. I spoke to her, and wrote about her, at the beginning of this year: www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

Well… L: 7 AM today R: Monday PM

I’ve never seen anything remotely this petty charged as bank fraud.

Nothing more gorgeous from the fall garden than purple swiss chard, served w sliced golden beets. It’s the supper vegetable dish, probably including a good chunk of butter.

🤯

Trump promised a health care plan TEN YEARS AGO and has never come up with one. Unless you consider it a "health care plan" when you cut health care and use the savings to give rich people a tax cut.

CHICAGO — Outside an elementary school during dismissal… horrifying. What have we become?

you'd think a prominent news outlet like the New York Times might mention that "antifa" isn't an actual organization in a long story about antifa, but nope! and the subhead helps props up a false claim this professor was up to something seedy as something up for debate
