He was confirmed 10 days after this, making every senator who confirmed him, knowing his position on 'burdensome' laws and rules, complicit in war crimes.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Yep. Some go into journalism to have access to power, to be power's handmaiden & PR. Others go into journalism to question & illuminate the operation of power & how some norms/systems hurt the powerless. Wolff just 1 of many examples showing--again--the former is very common& usu far more lucrative.

Someday, someone will do a story about why the Pulitzer jurors never nominated, and the Pulitzer board never awarded, a prize to @jkbjournalist.bsky.social, the @miamiherald.com reporter who broke the bulk of the Epstein story. www.miamiherald.com/topics/jeffr...

@sarahkendzior.bsky.social has been saying the same since 2017.

incredible that these guys have a massive hard on for a country that, if it were a state, would rank behind kansas in terms of wealth and which would be a total backwater if it weren’t economically integrated with more functional countries

These cases are nightmares. Many people had removal proceedings “administratively closed” for years; the case is off the docket and the person can stay indefinitely. Now, suddenly, ICE is restarting them. And if they miss a physical letter, they might get ordered deported without their knowledge.

The marginal tax bracket at the heart of our income tax system obfuscates the key question about taxes in a democratic society: Who pays what? In the 1930s, France's Popular Front government had a solution — until it was dismantled by the right-wing Vichy regime.

Long before Mikhail Gorbachev, Soviet planners and economists engaged in wide-ranging debates about economic reform. But they never seriously considered the option of a genuinely participatory, democratic model of socialism that would empower workers.

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

3/Don't fall for false narratives pushed by our disgraced ex-gov's billionaire-backed attack ads and major media coverage suggesting NYC Jews are uniformly scared of #Zohran. Primary vote results debunk that. The most expen$ive US city needs Zohran's kind of leadership, esp to fight fascism.

Hope you enjoy #NoCuomo!, a pro- #Zohran "Gaston"/Beauty & the Beast #parody I produced+cowrote for @jfrejnyc.bsky.social! Share to replace hate+disinfo with humor+joy! @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social got majority of Jewish primary votes. We'll do it again! #LFG #NYC #Mayor #Election2025 #Cuomo #GOTV

It's hard to overstate how fully engaged Chicago and the surrounding suburbs are in this ICE madness. There are neighborhood watch alerts, spontaneous crowds gathering outside schools at pick up & drop off plus madly blowing whistles and honking car horns, this city is fighting back and hard.

It’s amazing how so many Trump supporters who have never left the United States know so much about the day to day life and culture of people in countries all over the world.

I ain’t gone lie if you’ve been giving to your religious organization all these years and they don’t give out free food and help when snap gets cut you need to leave them where they are and find a new spot.

Enough with the passive constructions. When authorities shoot people, say so. This New York Times headline could have easily said, “Coast Guard Police Shoot 2 People at Protest Site Outside Base in California.”

OMG, this idiot thinks Reagan's tariff speech was created by the Canadians with AI 🤣 How motherfucking stupid is he?!

Exactly 🤣 They blame everything on Antifa 🤣

BINGO!!

The last thing that Trump regime wants is an open hearing with Jack Smith testifying under oath. This is the way. Let's find out what Trump has been hiding, how he abused his powers to do it, and the actions of all the enablers...that don't have immunity. 🧾 www.rawstory.com/jack-smith-2...

Good Night, Everyone!!! FUCK YOU DONALD JOHN TRUMP! FUCK THE REPUBLICAN SHUTDOWN!! FUCK TRUMP’S BALLROOM!!! FUCK FASCISM!!!! FUCK THE ENTIRE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION!!!!!

I know Canada has to be tired of this lying, spoiled, whiny titty baby Decomposing Dictator. We are. (Trumpers now hate their former demi-god Reagan on tariffs & immigration.) From the Reagan library. You decide. 📺 youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc?... 🧾 Transcript: is.gd/LlsPRX 🦋 bsky.app/profile/ronf...

Why does ICE need chemical weapons?! 😳 #AbolishICE “Small arms” refers to armor, explosives, chemical weapons, pistols, and rifles while “ordnance and ordnance accessories manufacturing” denotes other materials like artillery, barrels, extractors, and mounts." 🧾 share.google/63YddkTKLZlh...

Maybe the FL Mar-O-Lago needs a remodel! 🤓

Of course, of course. Y'all are the least, if at all, of his priorities.

So far.

And yet...Trump...

Here are the companies destroying the east wing of the White House

IMHO, you can’t understand what’s happening to the US if u don’t know about the “network state” movement & its “parallel establishment” strategy, which includes building “parallel societies” (w/ their own physical territories) & “parallel institutions” in media, education, finance, science, etc. 1/

business idea it’s called Alamo Cathouse and it’s alamo drafthouse for cats. they get treats and look out the window.

This just happened - which is especially wild considering that The Lever self-published the book without a major publisher and without the huge PR machine that typically determines whether books reach an audience. I am in shock.

CBS aired a segment by Olivia Reingold—a reporter for the Weiss-founded Free Press—in which NYPD officers are worried about Mamdani, with some “considering retiring.” The evidence? Four unnamed officers out of ~33,000. The story is thinly sourced, fearmongering, tabloid drek trib.al/bVBxpHH

All week the pro-Israel and pro-Trump supporters screamed at us, in unison: why aren’t you celebrating the ceasefire?? Because we knew it wouldn’t last. But even I didn’t think it’d be over in less than a week. What a complete & utter humiliation for Trump, thanks to Netanyahu.

alt hed: President confirms he is full of shit.

"...it did not take long for the myth of “Akromiya” to be debunked. I know, because I was the one who debunked it." another amazing loreflash from the inimitable kendzior! #Hero

Abq today - Viva the I-25 corridor!

I took part in a small town protest today in very very red rural Missouri. Initially, a few days ago 43 people were "going". Turned out to be 640 of us in a tiny town square! I was beyond exhilarated.

They saw the light!

Mayor Johnson: There are those in this country that have decided, at the behest of this president, to declare war on Chicago and American cities across this country. They have clearly decided that they want a rematch of the Civil War. We will not submit to the authoritarianism that is coming down.
