We should reboot journalism completely. Start from scratch. They should get those old timey hats and a pencil and figure it out from there

You can think it’s good that Massie and MTG are stirring up shit within the GOP caucus without thinking their politics in general is good. It’s not hard at all in fact?

This is the story of how Rapist Matt Gaetz upended a 17 year old girl’s life. He was almost our attorney general.

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes. The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last. The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes. Why? It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

pretty incredible that elon musk wants for nothing except literally all of the most important things

Help mom I’m being bullied by 87 year old novella writer Joyce Carol Oates again can you pick me up

“Tell your children who the cowards were.” - Ta-Nehisi Coates

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

This looks awfully intentional.

Give them no peace. None. They failed ALL of us.

I contend these are not democrats and that these individuals are absolutely in on the fix. Watch the $ and vote them out.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Yeah, I'm sorry, but you do not keep the government shut for more than a month and then NOT get a deal on the main item you have been messaging on without completely shifting the blame dynamic.

DO NOT CAVE!

I swear to god Chuck Schumer better not ruin the bolt of energy that Tuesday shot through Democrats by folding on the shutdown

I do not know what is going on with UofL fans who live in Louisville still... Idk if it's the radio shows or the fan boards or what but y'all are toxic. It's not good. Figure it out and knock it off.

There is no doubt at all that the Trump Administration spent the emergency USDA SNAP fund and they may have even spent the regular SNAP funds. In this article they claim USDA would have to dig in couches for something that isn’t there. Where is the SNAP money? www.npr.org/2025/11/07/n...

Who would have thought that raising prices on everything, cutting off food assistance, doubling health insurance, destroying our reputation around the world, decimating critical government agencies like the CDC, and waging actual war on our neighbors, family, and friends would be wildly unpopular?

Oh

What happens when you distill 2025 into a single social media post? This. This is what you get.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

Fiona Bruce: "I'm stopping the recording because we have a breaking story which we should respond to... Prince Andrew will no longer be 'Prince' Andrew." *Audience applause* "He will surrender the lease to his home and find alternative private accommodation." *More audience applause* #bbcqt

I think COVID not only exposed racial and wealth disparities, it more concerningly revealed asymmetries in information ecosystems and appetites for violence. You cannot become a more compassionate, collectivist nation if a brainwashed white "handyman" decides to unload 500 rounds at the CDC

there are going to be a lot of stories in the next couple weeks about the generosity of ordinary people in helping their fellow Americans and all of them will be wonderful and none of them should be necessary we don’t have to have a government this cruel and capricious

It's not lost on me that the part of the White House we are destroying is the part that has to do with women's history in the White House.

Once again, Costa Rica is a modern country, who speaks his native language, close to where he was born, but also has a modern healthcare system, good quality of life, and the whole point of this administration is to hurt people, so they are not trying to facilitate it.

White House and Texas Republicans already seeking out new candidates to replace Tony Gonzales in the house, because of the dead self immolated aide who he was allegedly having an affair with issue. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

dear US friends, when a sitting president (re)builds the seat of government, it almost always means the president has no intention of leaving at the end of term. your African friends with decades of experience

The New York Times publishes a handy guide to which federal forces are terrorizing us at any moment. This is America, 2025.

wow, which common vaccine was it?

Scott: Her whole race is about policing bathrooms. They’re the pee-and-poop caucus. That’s all they do—they police where kids are going to the bathroom. They’re not worried about where kids are learning or what they’re getting out of school.

Leavitt: At this moment in time, the ballroom is really the president's main priority.

NBC News finds that: -- ICE has shortened its training from 13 weeks to six. -- Nearly half of recruits couldn’t pass an open-book written exam. -- Recruits "are supposed to attest" they can pass the physical-fitness test, which requires them to run ... 6 mph. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Within a week we've had a major jewel heist at the Louvre, a mafia-involved poker ring and sports gambling corruption. We're living in the 1920s.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Food pantry manager 🙋🏻‍♀️Typically our participants receive 11 healthy items. Two weeks ago they received only 7 and 3 of those items were different types of onions (so 4 items essentially for the week). Now I know why. projects.propublica.org/trump-food-c...

As someone who manages a local food pantry this hits so close to home. Donate to your local food pantry please if you can.

the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."
