if you want to understand why curtis yarvin called neil gorsuch a cuck, you gotta read theory www.liberalcurrents.com/the-interrac...

Obviously Donald Trump is not an expert in refrigerants, but you can be, and understand why these decisions can be hugely consequential for climate change, if you read this quick 🧵:

NEW: there are a lot of think tanks on the Right out there. Some are good-faith conservatives worth paying attention to even if you disagree with them. Some are total far-Right hacks churning out bile. I walk through which is which.

Is the @nytimes.com finally crawling out of trumps ass now? Or just needed a breather?

Remember who enabled him, supported him, sucked up to him, etc., bc they’ll try to convince you they never did when this is over.

Erasing history and facts didn't work for the USSR, and they were better at it than anyone else.

Why wont any MSM write about it? “That’s not theocracy, that’s just natural law, that’s just the natural order of things.” Leonard Leo washingtonstand.com/news/legal-e...

I am obsessed with the liberty mutual commercials with the liberty bibberty guy 😭 they get me everytime

How many Dems voted for this attorneys confirmation in the SDNYs office?

“Russian propaganda on Bluesky first became notable during Germany’s elections last year, when the Kremlin sought to bolster Germany’s far right, led by the Alternative for Germany party, known as AfD.” #giftlink #disinformation #propaganda

“A world-class Ebola lab in Frederick, Maryland, with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) was designed for exactly this scenario…But that lab was shuttered last year, with staff laid off abruptly and their work …ended with no notice.” www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

America is exporting its white supremacy and the money behind to across the pond and into many other European countries. I hope Brit’s wake up before it’s too late 😔

One final vote in the Louisiana Legislature would allow the state Republican and Democratic parties to exclude unaffiliated voters from their primary elections starting in 2027. @jsodonoghue.bsky.social reports

Democrats are a disgrace

Here's the full text of HR 7661 (it's very short) which threatens to cut federal funding to any public school in the US which offers programing or books which mention "gender dysphoria or transgenderism" www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

How is the dnc STILL not taking these clips and running commercials everywhere?? We now have a year and a half of them saying the quiet part out loud about their (Christo)fascist and dictatorial fever dreams and yall are nowhere to be found @electdemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.org

I say it all of the time because it's true: Islamophobia in the U.S. is absolutely one of the most tolerated forms of bigotry. It's everywhere, routine and rarely challenged. It's not surprising that teenagers who swim in this water from birth would also be Islamophobic.

Like we don’t have enough white supremacists here already? If you see an Afrikaner in the wild, don’t hesitate to tell them to fuck off back to their European homelands.

In November I broke this story about Andrew Paul Johnson, a pardoned J6er who molested children and used the promise of reparations to bribe his victims silence.

The national prayer breakfast needs to be thrown in the trash and never retrieved.

Just found out the WHO has a Bluesky account. Here’s their thread on the status of the Ebola outbreak:

WHOA: The oral arguments hearing has been scheduled in the direct criminal appeal of #Scientology celebrity and 'That ‘70s Show' actor Danny Masterson — and you can tune in to watch it. The stakes could not be higher for Masterson, who turned 50 years old in prison on March 13.

This is actual bullshit lmao he’s clearly lying and y’all are eating this shit up like this man isn’t a Nazi.

I’ve been waiting for this for years. I don’t care how much you make or what your job title is, I would never let someone speak to me like this. I would dish his shit back at him twice as hard. American reporters are all subservient, weak-kneed pansies with no self-respect.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 we see you Louisiana

ICE flights. Saturday, May 16, 2026. Busy day -- 31 planes, 9 deportation flights, 4 to Tapachula, Mexico, alone. Tapachula is a main dropoff site for third-country removals.

Thinking again about this day — and how Cassidy tried to rationalize his decision to vote for RFK Jr Even as he — a doctor who made vaccines a centerpiece of his career, and the health committee chairman — arguably knew the risks better than any other GOP senator

#SCOTUS has posted a new version of Justice Alito’s mifepristone dissent that replaces the awkwardly revealing typo with just a dumb typo. There’s a HIPAA joke here somewhere, except it’s not funny: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Fuck this bullshit

I hate this man as only those of us who’ve read Bonhoeffer’s collected works including at least some in the original German can hate him. It’s a special club.

@palewi.re has created an index of all the FiveThirtyEight articles that are preserved on the Internet Archive. Very useful: fivethirtyeightindex.com

ABC News has now taken all FiveThirtyEight articles completely offline. They now redirect to abcnews dot com.politics. A needless erasure of thousands of pages of knowledge.

Simon Beacher is Barrett Jackman, you cannot convince me otherwise. What is the point of him being there? Like seriously, how did he make it to MLS?

Keep calling them confederates👏🏼👏🏼

White people being activated in the south by gerrymandering and hoods off racism is truly something to behold. Not enough for my liking, but there are a growing number of pockets that I have a feeling will sneak up on the GOP. And I cannot wait to see it play out.
