Autocorrect just fixed my “shif” into “shit”. The world is healing.

When a King and direct descendent of King George III has to remind the American government about the utmost importance of checks and balances, you know we're in deep trouble.

JFK did not kill himself. He was murdered. The truth is coming for us all. theonion.info

Super proud of this work to keep kids toys safe: youtu.be/2swzoVYU_iQ

Hillary Clinton was right about everything. Kamala Harris was right about everything. Both would’ve been incredible Presidents and I remain proud AF to have cast my vote for them.

This is how Bruce Springsteen opened his concert in Los Angeles last night. 🔥🔥 Footage from @margaret_nagle on Threads.

Dem leadership should be telling everyone that this is the talking point.

Young planets forming deep in the universe - WISPIT 2, a young star surrounded by a disk of gas and dust, in which at least two planets are forming. The video combines images taken at various wavelengths and times, as captured by the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy at ESO.

This should be an impeachable offense. I understand that we’re way past any of that, but that shouldn’t stop us from naming it.

Not in Seattle? There are #NOKINGS events happening all across Washington! Find your closest event here:

Why are ICE thugs being paid to stand around and do nothing at our nation’s airports, while hardworking TSA agents are still not getting paid? 🤨 The answer: Trump and the Republicans.

This may be the most powerful 85 seconds I've ever seen on television.

My resolution to overturn the Supreme Court’s disastrous Citizens United decision — H.J.Res 122 — has now been co-sponsored by 72 Members of Congress. You can view the full list at: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c.... I’ll keep fighting to get it across the finish line!

…

Hades! QRP with a game that has a 10/10 soundtrack!

Indeed, Fuck ICE.

Jerome Powell confirmed today that the causes of inflation and net zero job growth are Trump’s immigration policy, Trump’s tariffs, and Trump’s war in Iran.

BREAKING: The House Oversight Committee just formally subpoenaed Pam Bondi to answer questions about the Epstein investigation behind closed doors on April 14. tinyurl.com/ympvmxh2

NOEM TAKING QUESTIONS - DOES NOT APPEAR TO KNOW SHE WAS FIRED

The U.S. State Department issued a notice yesterday for Americans to evacuate more than a dozen Middle Eastern countries "via commercial means due to serious safety risks." The catch? Air space is closed. There are no flights leaving 10 of the 13 countries.

Hey @asusrog.bsky.social , my XG Mobile which was pretty kickass now does not turn on or work, and your warranty process is a Byzantine fever dream UX nightmare that I need the LLM that WAS running on said GPU to figure out. Oh BTW I’m CTO for a huge reseller.

Every AI company needs to at least copy/paste this document and release it as their policy, or produce an even more restrictive one, fast. www.anthropic.com/news/stateme...

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

Literally impeach every single impeachable person in the entire chain of command, including Trump.

If Moderna is no longer bringing vaccine trials for Epstein-Barr virus (good evidence that EB causes Multiple Sclerosis), herpes, and shingles because of Trump appointees, I want prison time for those appointees. This might be dooming millions to disease they don’t have to experience.

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

Mamdani has now gotten more votes than 1/4 of the members of the United States Senate did when they got elected. The political power being channeled here is immense.

This is the one of the best speeches I have ever heard, this is amazing. THIS is the kind of politician you want in the coalition, Mamdani is absolutely an inspiration Fucking goosebumps, man

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

Trump Job Approval Among 18-29 Year Olds: 🔴 Disapprove: 75% (+38) 🟢 Approve: 20% (-22) YouGov / Oct 27, 2025 (% Change With Feb 4, 2025)

Uh like, worth watching. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnUO...

Trump is trying to withhold SNAP benefits from hungry families, children, seniors, and our vets. He's weaponizing hunger.

With this creators should be sweeping down on them with every lawsuit imaginable. Blitz them into nothing before they get the powers that be to change rules. Again.

Which is it, Mike?

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.   During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

AOC has just officially become the top House fundraiser, beating out Hakeem Jeffries. Now lemme take a big sip of coffee as I look at the age distribution of donors to AOC vs Jeffries

Patriotic protesters wearing goofy inflatable frog costumes are using laughter to fight facism. And there’s nothing a bully hates more than being laughed at.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

We also need canonized replacement words/phrases that we all align on to better describe: Fascism (power-mad?) Oligarchy (rule by the rich?) Socialism (For the People?) Autocracy (Dictator?) Plenary authority (Cheeto Hell) Kleptocracy (Robber Barons?)

We need 10 viable dem presidential candidates, on YouTube *every single day*, detailing their plan for the midterms/‘28, demonstrating positive actions that can be taken today, talking to the disillusioned, bringing different folks together to common cause, debunking disinfo. Right now.

Every Congressional Republican needs to answer: Do you support the President's call to imprison the Governor of Illinois and Mayor of Chicago? Trump is not a king. This is not acceptable. Do Republicans want a dictator or a President?

I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
