Merry Christmas, everyone!

Americans having to bootleg broadcast news about our government’s offshored concentration camp is a level of fascism that immediately precedes democratic societies dropping leaflets on us from weather balloons.

"Republicans now hold increased sway not only over North Carolina’s election board, but also over its schools, building codes, environmental regulations, coastal development, wildlife management, utilities, cabinet appointments and more. All had previously been under control of the governor."

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should

Major measles outbreaks have repeatedly cropped up in the Southwest this year. Yet at IHS hospitals in the region, agency officials deemed “measles” and “immunizations” a "medium risk" in internal agency emails. Staffers, including doctors, now need to get approval to use them in public messaging

So, I have read articles written by people who claim that the entire concept of modern medicine is bad, because "artificially" saving people's lives has put a stop to human evolution by letting genetically inferior people breed. Great that those folks are in charge of the CDC now.

The “canceled people” database listing victims of cancel culture, which includes oft-repeated cases such as Bret Weinstein (Evergreen State College) and James Damore (Google), has a little over 200 entries across 18 years. canceledpeople.org

All 3 top KY Senate Republicans running to replace Mitch McConnell have filed their financial disclosures. One of them reported assets of $44M-$114M. All are pretty interesting. Here's what the reports say: www.kentucky.com/news/politic...

Trump just celebrated Schumer's cave by pardoning 75+ co-conspirators including Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and Sidney Powell, for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

A whole lot of nothing for over a month just to sit in the cuck chair while you watch the fascists fuck our country

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

This feels significant

It’s giving recession indicator, just like the Hamburger Helper photo going around

Add Cincinnati to the rapidly expanding list of cities where homeless students sleep in parking lots because their families can't afford a place to live. www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2...

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes

Zohran Mamdani: I want to make housing and transportation affordable for the common person Andrew Cuomo: if you elect Zohran we will have 10 9/11s a day Curtis Sliwa: The events of Godzilla 1998 actually happened and I lead the team of French mercenaries that killed her babies in MSG

Too many neolibs are falling for @govpritzker.illinois.gov’s tough guy bit. He is a billionaire that represents the ruling classes. So, it should come as no surprise that he hasn’t said a word about Illinois State Police showing as much force—if not more—as the Nazi goons in ICE

Already today, Israel has: -Conducted a drone strike on Khan Younis in Gaza -Shot & wounded two others near Khan Younis -Killed 5 Palestinians in Gaza City -Fired on & wounded a several others near Jabalia All in violation of the “ceasefire.”

Bari Weiss, the incoming editor in chief of CBS News, once auditioned for a role on the hit daytime television show "The View," but tested so poorly with audiences that she "wasn't invited back," according to a new report.

I love living in a gerontocracy <3

Killing it for sure
