thinking about how the feds raided multiple properties owned by Epstein, carried out a bunch of boxes, and that was the last we heard about any of that

damn, did I miss a Black militant force bulldozing unsuspecting white neighborhoods or is this writer full of shit?

we need a total and complete shut down of adult conversion until we can figure out what the hell is going on

turns out antisemites that are pro Israel are still antisemites

OpenAI employees are very excited about how well their new AI tool can create fake videos of people doing crimes and have definitely thought through all the implications of this

The federal government has shut down after a congressional standoff over measures aimed at protecting health insurance for millions of Americans

Donald Trump would rather shut down your government than keep your healthcare costs from going up.

I get somebody every time

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion. In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose 29%. (Published May)

Please note that, unlike the president, the deputy chief of staff does not have immunity from prosecution for official acts per Trump v. United States

I fully understand how difficult it is to remain focused on any one particular atrocity but this really ought to be a serious scandal and people need to pay heavy prices for this

The review of more than 60 scientific articles showed that microplastics, among other effects, can stimulate the formation of osteoclasts, cells specialized in degrading bone tissue. www.wired.com/story/microp...

does anyone else remember a moment during his first term where he idly floated the idea of Medicare for All during a meeting and then someone ran over to him and redirected his attention?

THE MEME IS REAL

Y'all...this is Bluesky trying not to get sued out of existence. We should be pissed. Age verification is being used to keep G-rated queer content away from kids and teens who need it. But we should be pissed at the governments of Ohio, South Dakota, and Wyoming.

investigate that Duck Dynasty family

This can only seem logical if you don't understand how the concept of whiteness was invented in America (Spoiler: it was racism and disdain for non wasp immigrants. The Irish didn't get to be white until they became slaves catchers and eventually cops)

every time he talks about his wife and kids, it feels increasingly likely that the people pushing the Great Replacement rhetoric could bully him into abandoning them

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 26-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 2.4 MILLION people in Sweden found found NO EVIDENCE to support a causal link between acetaminophen (the API in Tylenol) use during pregnancy and increased risk of autism, ADHD, OR intellectual disability in children.

LOL "I spoke to the governor, she was very nice. But I said, 'Well wait a minute, am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening? My people tell me different.' They are literally attacking and there are fires all over the place... www.kgw.com/article/news...

think it has more to do with their belief in immutable hierarchies and how having a Black man in a position of power and authority over them drove them insane that a Black man could be elected president at all violated their entire worldview and they haven’t stopped punishing everyone for it since

Think it’s very important we situate their claims to desire a “post-racial” nation within their demands to eliminate any policy which would actually address the material effects of racism. They’re wanted a code of silence around systemic racism, because Obama won an election.

The federal government is actively at war against the civilian population of Chicago

The agent admits he treats immigrants like "they're animals" and that he tells his kids that they are animals "all the time"

Disabled people are particularly vulnerable to abuse under fascism. ICE has been neglecting the medical needs of detainees. One disabled immigrant, Rodney Taylor, needs our help. He's a double amputee who's been in the country since he was two years old. He's being held in solitary:

no one has an "unbridled desire to work" for god's sake. I want the job for the pay, why do we have to do this weird performance pretending it's anything else?

This is much, much more significant than the Comey indictment but has gotten like 0.1% of the media coverage

turns out they have no objection to being told what to do as long as it isn’t by someone they perceive as a liberal

are they going to push to fire every cop that knelt to recoup their public image? you know, in between blinding journalists at the demonstrations

kinda surprised they're not dismissing her as a DEI pilot and saying that's why she crashed

in response to an article about a man who has been kidnapped by ICE, this dude feels the need to loudly announce that being expected to show any respect to a Black person drives him insane

is he going to get sued by Disney?

UPDATE: 25 states plus DC have taken actions to protect COVID-19 vaccine access. Two regional public health alliances have formed: The Northeast Public Health Collaborative and the West Coast Health Alliance. There are several midwest and mountain states who have collaboration potential.

They will use all this dangerous BS about Tylenol use as another weapon to criminalize pregnancy loss.

✊ New Yorkers will not stand idly by as ICE operates in the heart of our city, kidnapping New Yorkers and separating them from their loved ones and community. #ICEOutOfNY

seems like this could have been a Zoom meeting

consumers aren't gonna spend shit on this garbage because it sucks ass and does nothing useful, so I'm guessing their exit plan is the same as every other bubble, big taxpayer bailouts for the well connected players and devastation for everyone else

misspending a couple of hundred billion dollars, whoops!

Elon saw Trump at the Devil’s Sacrament

What might not occur to you upon reading this headline is that, in other words, ICE is targeting gay men of color Every queer press org should be picking up this story

From LA to Chicago, the feds continue their horrid practice of aiming high and directly at press. When these agencies get to uncritically claim that videotaping is violence, this is the outcome: reporters getting hit in the face with “less lethals.” Unconscionable.

When people start rationing their healthcare bad things happen. Ask anyone who has to pay for insulin. Hell, people already literally die in this country because asthma inhalers still cost $50 with insurance because of corporate price manipulation.

Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) announced Thursday she would introduce articles of impeachment against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. due to “health care chaos” under his watch. thehill.com/policy/healt...

can’t Comey just step on him?

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

what could this possibly mean? is Damien an investor?
