I love and respect this scientist. Carl Sagan answers a question about creation vs evolution.

Imagine that. The lawless criminal and pathological liar was lying.

For too long, City government has stood idly by while homeowners fall victim to criminal deed theft. Those days are over. We're creating the City's first Office of Deed Theft Prevention. If you think you or someone you know may be a victim of deed theft, visit nyc.gov/deedfraud. @chiosse.bsky.social

Two nights ago, I said Trump had been using our troops as pirates in Iran and a Republican got mad. Well… the president just admitted it. He literally bragged about doing piracy.

Goodbye, get lost, and we'll see you soon.

Everyone please welcome CBS News Immigration Analyst Viktor Orban.

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations: Alphabet: 8.01% AT&T: 4.6% Meta: 3.57% General Motors: 3.09% Amazon: 1.37% Exxon Mobil: 1.31% Disney: -1.57% CVS Health: -3.88% Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5% This is what a rigged system looks like.

Eyewitness video from the scene of today's ICE shooting in California appears to (you guessed it) contradict officials' claims that the man "weaponized" his vehicle. The car is reversing and the agents appear to be well clear of it.

An Easter message from the president which should really force the VP and the cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

If we bought a few less bombs, we could probably afford nice things. One thing I'd like to see from the next presidency would be to appoint a special commission to prepare a report on the actual cost to defend the United States from attack. Not foreign wars. Just the cost to defend this country.

your grandparents voting for reagan

Holy New York.

Sanders: But there is another vision out there as well—a darker vision. It is a vision which says that we must give up on democracy, that we are too stupid and inept to govern ourselves, and that we must put more and more power into the hands of one man.

WHATEVER is making you CRAZY about AMERICA right now, SATURDAY is the day you come out to EXPRESS it. We NEED every single one of YOU. www.nokings.org youtu.be/Y43lD7aYnqI

Looks like it was a narco trafficking compound in exactly the same way Alex Pretti was a domestic terrorist.

The grift will not stop til he and the entire bloody lot of grifters are extracted, then banned from ever holding a governmental position again. This once great nation has never witnessed an entire admin with such brazen corruption & utter incompetence. They all must be held to account.

"The 5 Most Islamophobic Tweets From Republicans Since the Iran War Began" GOP members of Congress are now saying insanely vile and racist things about Muslims that they couldn’t say about any other group.

Chris Murphy: "It's just disgusting, it's so heartbreaking that we have a president who is cheerleading the death of American citizens. Mueller is amongst many who have been trying to hold this president to account. He's the most corrupt president in the history of the country."

Tyranny cannot succeed where people refuse to submit to it. Next Saturday, on the third No Kings Day, we will proclaim our refusal to submit. We will reaffirm that America Belongs to us. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-no-kings-next-saturday

Some of you are probably thinking “Another protest!?” Well, yes! This No Kings Day on March 28 is more important than ever. Here's why. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/s5j1Aevwoek

I somehow missed this. UNBELIEVABLE.

And he's the President.

After the head of ICE in Central Florida pleaded no contest to exposing himself and masturbating in front of a 16-year-old girl (which was witnessed by her mother and caught on mall security cameras), ICE allowed him to apply his vacation and sick days to reach retirement and collect a full pension.

HANDS OFF: 1300 events NO KINGS 1: 2100 events NO KINGS 2: 2700 events NO KINGS 3: 3000 events and counting Let’s make history. Again.

Even with all the news organizations and their taking-heads, this is still the best explanation for Trump's predicament I've seen so far.🗽

GOP: the mail is secure enough to receive your photo ID, social security card, your debit and credit cards, your stimulus checks, and your tax returns Also GOP: the mail is not safe enough for voting

The US is no longer a liberal democracy, according to the top global watchdog on freedom and democracy. We're falling fast, and are now classed the same as Guatemala, Colombia, and Peru www.v-dem.net/documents/75...

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

Putin is providing intelligence to Iran. Trump has eased sanctions against Russia. Russia is now profiting off the war at the expense of American lives and machinery. Trump is a complete fool or deliberately working against his own country.

There is no telling where our data is.

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trump’s presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.

Massie on Newsmax: "We're not getting the answers we need from Pam Bondi. I just spent 3 hours at the DOJ this week looking at the unredacted files. And I'm finding evidence of files they haven't released yet." (Note that the Newsmax anchor agrees with him!)

Like clockwork.

Oh, you correctly identified what I did? What if I told you that I simply wasn’t doing that.

Alex's mom on his 38th birthday.

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America. And if it was any other president’s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, it’d be the instant end of their presidency.

Chris Murphy: "It won't be the billionaire children of Donald Trump and his buddies that die. It's going to be the children of middle class and poor families all across this country that are gonna die for a war of choice, a war of vanity, an illegal war."

Ted Cruz: "I have no indication they were anywhere close to getting nuclear weapons"

These guys were selling t-shirts until they needed a war to cover up the intentional damage they did to the economy and the president's involvement in a pedophilia scandal.

Still, nobody on the right will care about the contradiction. They will only care how it effects their bank account. And it will.

lmao people worrying about an apple watch in a SCIF when these guys are drawing up war plans in claude and placing side bets with online bookies

Imagine telling the world that you're liberating the women of Iran and one of the first things you do is blow up a school full of girls. Disgusting.

I suspect this war is going to make AIPAC as popular as the NRA among Democratic primary voters.

I don't care about the productivity gains or efficiency. I don't care whether they're cutting-edge. American values matter and OpenAI clearly rejects them. I'm ending my personal subscription and my orgs' enterprise subscriptions. OpenAI will never receive another cent from me.

Hegseth is wholeheartedly endorsing the core premise of fascism: industry, as part of the private sphere, must be subordinated to the military objectives of the state.
