We won’t have to touch anything… We’re just demolishing a facade… Ok it’s only most of the East Wing… It’s only the violent criminal illegals… Well at least some of them were criminals… Ok so we’ve locked up some citizens… We’re upholding the constitution… Well just the good bits… Ok I AM THE LAW!

This GOP simply doesn’t believe in facts over fealty. That’s what this all comes down to. Incompatible worldviews talking past each other, allowing one to steamroll the other.

American institutions don't crumble. But they can be destroyed.

Silicon Valley’s leaders are tech junkies, eroded by constant algorithmic feedback. Their minds show the same cognitive and emotional decay they helped design. These aren’t visionaries guiding progress — they’re addicts steering the planet into dysfunction. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37516683/?ut...

“as AI grows more profitable” - he says about what is still the least profitable endeavour in the history of humanity…

I'm sure this has nothing to do with the fact that our tax code has been rigged to create one of the most unequal economies in history, right?

Strange to have to say this, but a centralized internet is a fragile internet. We used to know this.

Authoritarianism and disinformation are real threats to our democracy. Educators help students think critically, engage in civil discourse & stand up for what’s right. This @sharemylesson.bsky.social collection offers K–12 resources to teach just that: sharemylesson.com/collections/...

Trump broadcasts to the world precisely how full of shit he’s been this entire time.

Get your politicians to commit now to #NoBailoutsForAI

CEO: I deserve this compensation! I’m a job creator! Truth: Just the opposite. Wealthy CEO’s don’t create jobs - the economy creates jobs, and it creates MORE jobs when MORE people have more money, not fewer people. More jobs would be created by paying you less and your workers more! #econsky

It bears repeating: Giving money to the very rich or to giant corporations DOESN'T create jobs. It's the working class that drives real growth for our country. www.businessinsider.com/rich-people-...

"The richest 10% is responsible for almost half of our carbon pollution. But even more shocking? When you look at just the richest 1%, they're responsible for more pollution than half of Americans. That's about 65 million households." h/t @cityatlas.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgA0...

Freedom of speech for opportunists: “Where we don’t yet have power, we demand freedom of speech until we get power. Where we have power, we demand freedom FROM speech until you can never get power again.”

The shameless GOP lying about the No Kings gatherings scheduled for next Saturday reveals how deeply hostile much of the Republican Party is to “the right of the people peaceably to assemble.” I look forward to our local No Kings event, and urge my fellow Americans to attend in their communities.

This is becoming urgent. Private equity is gutting hospitals for profit — when they collapse, communities lose care. That’s life and death. PE has been taking over some of your favorite companies for years. They sell off assets, strip the business bare, and when there’s nothing left, it collapses.

AI companies are spending billions on deals with each other, which boost their value. This has helped twenty billionaires tied to AI add $450B to their fortunes in 2025. Meanwhile, an MIT study found that 95% of companies using AI haven't seen returns on investment. Be warned.

The media standard HAS TO be “Evidence or GTFO” — not “Claims have been made (and we are hereby amplifying them), evidence maybe pending”

A horrible story but god bless this woman so accurately reading the ICE goons for filth here

Protesters played a recording of "Yackity Sax" when Kristi Noem toured the roof of the ICE facility in Portland, OR. The piece was jointly composed by James Q. "Spider" Rich and Boots Randolph and released in 1963. AKA: Theme from the Benny Hill Show. TROLL- A-RAMA!

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Whether you like it or not, this is our painful truth in America.

I voted for Zarmok the Irrational because I thought his unique approach to governance could bring a refreshing dose of rationality to "politics at usual." But his recent performance has been anything but
