Some guy on TikTok is threatening to release the Grindr profile of Mike Johnson. Please human, please don’t let God down. 🙏

This whole press conference has big “didn’t do the reading but I gotta turn in the assignment” energy.

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity. "To be clear, men wouldn’t be posing as ICE agents and assaulting women if ICE didn’t exist."

For the media to run with this as truth is insane. Where are all the "alleged" and "unconfirmed" tags they usually put on statements that go against the president's narrative? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. END/

Back to the texts, where did the local prosecutors get the messages? Did they get screenshots from the FBI and then reproduced them themselves? Or did they get the already-reproduced version of the messages from the FBI? Who all has seen the actual messages? 3/

Rand Paul should be ashamed, trying to further the agenda of these MAHA eugenicist ghouls. He knows better, and is digging in with his disingenuous questions for his sound bites. Disgraceful.

Today is the 88 day anniversary of the assasination of former Minnesota State Speaker of the House, Melissa Hortman. It was such a brazen act of political violence, taking her life for the sole “crime” of being a Democrat. May we never forget. Praying for her family.

Glenn Beck’s media outlet The Blaze just gave an interview last month to the person who killed the politicians in Minnesota

Sigh.

When some maga bigot shoots a bunch of kids, or a synagogue, or a mosque, or a Walmart, or a supermarket, that's a lone wolf with mental problems. When it's one of theirs who get shot, it's a sophisticated leftist plot, and every single liberal is in on it. That's how it works for the magas.

I just heard Venus Williams' age referred to as "45 years young." Can we retire this approach forever? It is super patronizing.

One thing I love about Coco Gauff is that when she is sad she looks sad. When she is scared she looks scared. She doesn't mask uncomfortable feelings with anger. To me this is a sign of good parenting. I look forward to seeing how she grows.

People saying "in other European languages 'education' = 'manners'" are tediously missing the point. Ostapenko is a sore loser who thought she could get away with bullying and threatening her opponent. The only correct response is to apologize and STFU.

Everyone is talking shit about Alcaraz's haircut, but to me he went from scrappy little TeenBeat heartthrob, to warrior man. He looks like a fucking marine!

I've said it before and I'll say it again. If you are designing a login flow with MFA that requires a code input from a time-sensitive authenticator app, and that cursor is not automatically in the text box, you should be arrested and go directly to jail.

A landlord turned off Tenant Client's family's heat upon learning Client was an immigrant. Landlord hired three different law firms to argue this was legal, then fired each one after they couldn't get our case dismissed. This week, landlord settled for enough that Client will buy a house.

There needs to be a congressional investigation into ICE and its practices. The agency needs to be completely dissolved and its agents and officers need to be prosecuted for any and all crimes committed.

1/4 At ICE’s Krome Detention Camp in Florida, Cuban immigrants formed a human "SOS" on the patio—desperate to alert the world. The facility is nearly 200% over capacity. Built for 600, it now holds 1,700. People sleep on floors, eat only a cup of rice a day, and go without medical care.

And some say women are too emotional for positions of leadership 🙄

If we're going to ban green holders from owning land, are we going to ban non-citizens from owning property full stop? Asking for all the kleptocrats jacking up real estate costs across this country.

I want to say a few words about my arbitration case against Twitter, because I really care about labor rights, and I am sad that people think companies can or perhaps should be allowed to do whatever they want. 🧵 1/

We won. That's it. That's the Tweet. Fuck Elon.

Facts. 💯

There needs to be a spreading hands emoji for posts like this. This is so well said.

It's not a new argument, of course, but Chesterton dismissed it effectively in 1908. "You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."

something to be said about how these people view americans as inputs to be used up by capital

The people: we want lower drug prices. Trump: if we raise prices for other countries our prices won't seem so bad. Art of the deal.

The real masculinity crisis is that it took less than one generation for women to outcompete men in higher ed and home ownership once the legal barriers to both were both were removed and they are collectively losing their minds faced with the reality that they were never naturally superior.

Trump's post is a federal crime. 26 USC § 7217.

This story is haunting me. Why is ICE over 900 miles from the border? Why are they operating without uniforms or badges? How do we know that these aren't just deputized Proud Boys or other MAGA militia? Where's the oversight? The accountability. I fear we have crossed the Rubicon with this one.

What the eugenicists don't understand is that if they get their wish, we become the walking dead, and they become the desperate survivors. There is no winning. We never stop coming for them. They live in fear forever.

“He is granting audiences to people who buy his meme coin. When the sitting president of the United States is selling access for what are effectively payments directly to him. There is no question that that rises to the level of an impeachable offense.” Sen. Jon Ossoff

"Trump has seen a decline of 10 points among White people without a college degree, a key part of his political coalition; he is also down 13 points among adults under age 30 and 11 points among those who say they did not vote in November."

Fully on board with dems running for office promising to reinstate fired federal employees and jail this administration’s various criminals, but let’s go ahead and add “we will seize by eminent domain any national parkland sold to developers”

Defund Musk. He should survive on his own.

The Trump administration is literally kidnapping and torturing people.

HOLD UP! The $10 million that DeSantis’ administration diverted to a state-created charity last year consisted of Medicaid dollars owed to state and federal taxpayers —- contrary to what the governor and other officials have publicly asserted.

It's one thing to deport people who have been adjudicated to have no legal status. It's another thing to send them to a prison from which they will never emerge. This needs to be said on TV over and over again.

I'm just a poor country political historian and not some big city media fella, but it *does* seem like a slightly big deal that the leader of the United States presented comically faked "evidence" in the Oval Office to justify his power to disappear ordinary people into a Central American prison?

Due. Process.

Either the courts get to decide who is a “violent criminal” or “gang member”, or Donald Trump gets to decide. That choice determines whether we are a Republic governed by laws or an autocracy living under a ruler.

What have Republicans done for the rest us? Defunded our schools and roads and hospitals and post offices and social safety nets…and for what? To send tax cuts to billionaires. Wake up, friends. They hate us. They laugh at us. The loathe us.

The Holocaust didn’t start with the gas chambers. It started when my friends Werner and Walter were taken from their homes when they were 14 and deported to Poland. They were tattooed 10 numbers apart in Auschwitz. #NeverAgainIsNow

I will say this - EVERYONE with power seems to be desperately hoping that unpopularity does the work that consequences need to do

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

Foreign Friends with Travel Plans to the U.S. for Conventions: A bit back I said you should maybe reconsider those plans. I would like to amend my prior statement. Cancel them. Cancel them now. We cannot keep you safe from our own government. Take your holiday in Spain or something.

SCOTUS didn't order Trump to return Abrego Garcia. They ordered the lower court to define "effectuate," they told trump to "facilitate" the return, they told trump to be ready to report the steps he's taking, & they told Xinis to show due regard & deference to trump's power over foreign affairs.

More serious point abt today's White House event. Bukele is actively and publicly conspiring to violate American domestic law and orders of American courts. Trump won't be in power forever. The next Democratic administration won't be like the last one.
