"Mike Lawler was the deciding vote for that big bag of BS Bill. that cut $900 billion from Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act. It is not enough to just blame Donald Trump. We need to put it on all the people who enable this to happen. And that starts with Mike Lawler."

There are days when I miss being an editor. I loved writing headlines. Whoever did this, I hope they took the rest of the day off.

To be fair this is basically how these guys win elections.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

The activists were subjected to "violence, degrading, humiliating treatment" by Israeli authorities. Read 👉 buff.ly/oiezu7m #GCNnews

You only have a few days left to tell the FCC that they should stop trying to force broadcasters to classify trans and nonbinary people as inappropriate for children to see on TV skepchick.org/2026/05/the-...

🤔 I swear I've seen this movie before.

They” didn’t leak Trump’s tax returns. An IRS contractor did - along with thousands of other tax returns - during Trump’s first term. Biden’s DOJ prosecuted the contractor, who got the max: 5 years in prison. This is shameful spin from SDNY U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton.

Eye-popping poll by Emerson of the upcoming primary in New York's 10th congressional district, where Brad Lander is crushing Democratic incumbent Dan Goldman 57% to 23%. emersoncollegepolling.com/new-york-cit...

WYDEN: "Founding Fathers would roll over in their graves if they knew the govt was able to demand a list of everyone a person called and texted, everyone who watches a YouTube video or visits a website, or uncover anonymous social media accounts, all without a warrant or court order of any kind"

Takeout/delivery and cooking your own food are both wrong. Instead you should be extracting atmospheric dust, nutrients, and moisture using specialized microscopic hairs called trichomes.

ProPublica’s board and senior management hide when asked to engage with bargaining. The board meets today, but they won’t meet with us. We will make our voices unavoidable until they agree to a fair contract, so, today, we welcomed folks to our office with flyers about our fight.

Probably worth talking about the level of corruption that has the Trump admin using the federal government to pre-empt state laws where it clearly does not have jurisdiction to do so. States banning gambling is settled law, and the only fools pretendimg these are normal futures markets are paid to.

Umm this is insane: “Philadelphia lawyers appointed to help people challenge their convictions can instead urge judges to rule against them, and often do so without speaking to their clients.”

The most corrupt administration of all time. They’re using your tax dollars to reward insurrectionists.  Insanity.

I say without hyperbole that this is the most brazenly corrupt action in US Presidential history. That it does not immediately lead to impeachment is a dangerous sign of how far the rule of law has declined.

Republicans are trying to decide elections - not voters, and they have the Supreme Court and billionaire extremists on their side. If we didn’t have power, they wouldn’t be trying to silence us. Democracy will have the last word.

The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office issued a nationwide arrest warrant on Monday for the ICE agent who allegedly shot a Venezuelan immigrant in north Minneapolis during Operation Metro Surge and then lied about the circumstances that led to the shooting.

NEW: The FBI wants to buy access to automated license plate readers (ALPRs) nationwide, which would likely allow the agency to track the movements of vehicles—and by extension people—across the country without a warrant, according to FBI procurement records reviewed by 404 Media.

We need a ban on stock trading by the President and Members of Congress. It’s bullshit that elected officials are getting rich off the backs of the American people while having access to insider information.

Never ever support pro-Israel Zionists. They pull shit like this.

The NYT removed the "um"s in Trump's answer on Taiwan, but put "um"s in AOC's answer on Taiwan to make her look dumb Trump said "Um, I would say 'like' is maybe too strong a word...um, no, I'm holding that in abeyance and it depends on China, depends, it's a, it's a.." L: Trump R: AOC Video below

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

“Nearly 50,000 Lake Tahoe residents are being told to find a new power provider because the grid is being re-routed to A.I. data centers.”

"Do you believe that transgender Americans should have access to gender affirming care in this country?" "I believe we should follow the law." Seven words when one "yes" would suffice.

Just flagrant illegality here.

WHAT THE FUCK, WHAT THE ABSOLUTE FUCK THIS FUCKING CROOK IS STEALING OUR SHIT!!! Literally picking our pockets to line his own and his friends'!!!! He is stealing THOUSANDS of dollars from my family in lost health care subsidies and higher costs. And yours!! We should all react accordingly!!!!

Spamberger needs to get recalled, and our labor movement needs to learn that anyone who calls themselves pro-capitalist (or was in the damned CIA) is not an ally to working people.

Americans are struggling to afford a full tank of gas, while Sec. Sean Duffy spent 7 months filming a luxury road trip reality show with his family, paid for by the companies he’s charged with regulating. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Hard-hitting journalism from the AP here, addressing the most serious issues of our time.

This would be an act of pure, brazen robbery. In other words, something Trump and his enablers are perfectly capable of carrying out. www.cnn.com/2026/05/13/p...

Thucydides nutz.

New research shows that more people abandoned Labour because they were too tough on immigration - and because of their support for Israel - than because they were too soft on immigration.

Some of those that work forces ...

NEW: Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp called a special session for next month to redraw the state’s congressional and legislative maps in time for 2028. The move adds Georgia to the growing list of southern states poised to wipe out majority-Black districts before the next presidential election.

Not a useful take. No one in the trump admin is interested in preventing terrorism, whatever that means these days. Gorka is exactly the right guy to pervert the justice system to label political opponents as terrorists, and persecute them recklessly. There's no use judging him by old standards.

Almost impressive when your dickhead political smear gets ratio'd on both comments *and* reposts.

Grupo Seguritech quietly built a $1.27 billion surveillance empire. Now it’s expanding into the U.S. and across Latin America https://restofworld.org/2026/mexico-seguritech-government-surveillance-profile/?utm_campaign=row-social

You can’t really make this up: left: Toxic narcissist Homelander from “The Boys”/ right: Toxic narcissist from Mar-a-Lago.

I discovered that my Green candidate won by 2 votes against Reform after 2 recounts. Don’t ever think your vote doesn’t count. So glad I made the effort.

The Republican Party has become a collection of arsonists targeting every part of civil society, liberalism and democracy. What unites them all, however, is corrupting the electoral process. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

This administration is engaged in an all-out war against free speech, and everyone who pretended that conservatives were "pro-free speech" needs to take several seats and reflect on why they were so easily duped (or complicit). www.science.org/content/arti...

folks, the idea is out there. Virginia Democrats are talking about it. this could happen. gift link to the NYT: www.nytimes.com/2026/05/10/u...

We really need to post this into existence.
