Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

That is a VERY thick photo album. I'm sure there's nothing of interest in that...

"Person impeached for insurrection sends billions to Argentina during US gov't shutdown" and "Felon convicted of fraud pardons felon convicted of fraud" and "Long-time Epstein associate posts video depicting himself as a king dumping diarrhea on Americans from a fighter jet" are factual statements

"Let's put [Liz Cheney] with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? Let's see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face." — Donald Trump, October 31, 2024

Here's an English language SK news account www.koreatimes.co.kr/foreignaffai...

It should be way bigger news that Trump effectively killed any attempt by foreign countries to build new factories in the United States with this idiotic ICE move. Just incalculable long term damage. Trump just killed his "build America" push www.wsj.com/world/asia/c...

The motive is to rile people up and get attention. Here we all are commenting on his take. I’m starting to think that “journalism” isn’t as much about informing anymore, as it is about getting a reaction.

Melissa Hortman practiced politics the right way.

like this is the most irresponsible level of hysteria i’ve ever seen. most of these people are either paid by the republican party, or are high level advisors and allies. this is insane

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

Just maybe remember Melissa Hortman🙏, her husband Mark🙏, & their dog Gilbert🙏, along with John Hoffman who survived. They didn't get nearly the press I'm sure this will, no matter the outcome.

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.

“I can’t stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up new age term, and it does a lot of damage.” - Charlie Kirk

This afternoon, in addition to Charlie Kirk, there was a school shooting. Bullets don't know and don't care if you are a Republican or Democrat. It is time for Republicans and Democrats to find a way to work together to reduce gun violence. www.wcpo.com/us-news/crim...

Acts of political violence aren’t acceptable. Non-political school shootings aren’t acceptable. Sacking the legislature isn’t acceptable. Military occupation of peaceful American cities isn’t acceptable. Abductions conducted in courthouse hallways by masked agents of the state aren’t acceptable.

what is wild about the epstein birthday book is how the entries reveal not only that everyone knew about him, but that it was *all* they knew about him. no "thanks for all the laughs" or "remember the Cher concert?" just joke after joke about preying on kids. wealthy creeps devoid of dimension.

SCOTUS is a political arm of the MAGA GOP.

A “we were wrong” correction would be nice.

I'm sorry, what. The times witnessed the Adams campaign bribing reporters multiple times in July and is just now reporting it...

Obviously that number is false, but pretending it's true, it basically would mean, if the murder rate was roughly the same as 2024, that there were 2 murders in 9 days instead of 3. Even pretending 9 days is a sample size of any value, touting that number is absurd to the point of parody.

Convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has reportedly been cleared to leave prison on work release.

Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring. And then that guy was "silenced" forever. And now we will just not talk about anything else until they... #ReleaseThe_EPSTEIN_Files

we can sneak around town / hunting working folks down / I hear they got a great benefit plan join ICE boy ain’t it nice / join ICE take my advice www.tiktok.com/@jessewelles...

The GOPedophiles really should listen to the VICTIMS!!!

She took so many tranquillizers it turned Donald into a pedophile

Imagine living a life of such depravity that the only way you can avoid prison is to become President and corrupt the entire legal system.

I implore you, US politicians, to understand that what the majority of people want, is simply for you to DO THE JOB OF GOVERNMENT. That is, ensure the bottom two rungs of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, so that we can pursue the other three. That's it. That's all. No more. Just that.

I think the idea that “The President is simultaneously an institution beyond the reach of criminal law and also a private person who can file $10 billion defamation suits when he dislikes a news article” is not very sensible.

How can anybody argue that the world is flat with such compelling evidence that it is a ball?

"Enigmas never age." In other words...

I can watch this all day

With silence, complicity, bending to its will and enthusiastic support; they endorse the fact that: •He raped her •He slapped her •She was 13 #FDT #EpsteinFiles #complicit

Wu: "It's a 500 year storm that keep hitting every year. We're saying there's something wrong with that. You're not supposed to have 500 year events every year. And every time Dems offer up legislation to say 'let's do something about this, let's save lives,' it's uniformly rejected on party lines"

North Carolina Gov. Josh Stein on Trump wanting the states and not FEMA to handle disaster response: "We don't get a huge storm every year. The country does. It doesn't make sense for each state to have a fully staffed emergency response team."

this guy has been with the Border Patrol for almost 30y, with most of his assignments apparently in Southern California (www.cbp.gov/newsroom/loc...), but put him under this admin and he talks to his neighbors like he's the general of a foreign army of occupation. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/07/u...

'Vacations.' The word is 'vacations.'

The President—who uses antisemitic slurs—is building concentration camps and an enormous secret police force. Ya know, maybe this is just because I’m Jewish, but I wish the political opposition and the media made a bigger deal about it!

The press absolutely do not think its their job to inform the public

This is America.

LAPD shoves an unhoused woman to the ground so hard her skull cracks open and she’s knocked unconscious. They then carry her to the curb, prop her up and abandon her. Witnesses took her to the ER.

A crew of masked federal agents arrested NYC comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander at the courthouse downtown after he asked them to produce a warrant. www.amny.com/news/brad-la...

When will they stop? Uh, I guess when you stop pretending everything is normal, voting for their bills and confirming their nominees?

Watch this ICE officer casually raise their rubber-bullet gun to shoot an unassuming Australian journalist in the back from behind as she does a standup at the LA protests. Now consider again who the “lawbreaking terrorists” are in this situation. bsky.app/profile/dell...

I never, ever want to hear again that women are too emotional to be leaders.

very fun to read frederick douglass accurately describe the problem with the pardon power in 1867
