A timeline of insanity

🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING! The Epstein criminal's Epstein speech on the Strait of Epstein closed by the Epstein War scheduled from the Epstein Room at the Epstein House at Epstein o'clock today, Monday 6, month of Epstein. Everything will be addressed except the Epstein Files. Be there or be Epstein!

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

This could happen? Nah.

‪Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Is it possible that giving space lasers to the Proud Boys to play with over a US airport is not a super duper safe plan? Asking for a friend.

Exactly the halftime show deep dive I wanted. Thank you, @beckyhammer.bsky.social!

First the spectacular Bad Bunny halftime show and then this news?! Tonight is THE BEST.

What a moment.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

WHAT? WHAT'S THAT YOU SAY? THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY? OH NO. WHO WOULD HAVE EVER THOUGHT?

There, I fixed it.

4 federal agents pull over an elderly US citizen for the suspected crime of being brown, break her car window, throw her to the ground, then drive off after they find her US Passport in her purse. The Salem Police, when called, say there’s nothing they can do. www.salemreporter.com/2026/01/31/u...

I would like to cosign every bit of this, from the big backpacks to the soup ladle, and with all my heart and all my soul, I would like this post to end up unnecessary, both for @garrettbucks.bsky.social and anyone else, like me, who feels the same way.

“Pretty fucking wild” is a nice way of saying “insulting to any mildly intelligent person.”

I used to write about parenting which was really a series of stories about having agency & autonomy in tough times. Then I started writing about reproductive justice which was really a series of stories about having agency & autonomy in tough times. Now I am compelled to write about everything.

BREAKING: Supreme Leader Trump has repealed the Second Amendment

In the ECUADORIAN CONSULATE! That’s basically an invasion. That’s invading Ecuador.

I’m so tired of bad people getting away with doing bad things.

“Federal agents briefly detained our reporter at the scene, who says he was tackled to the ground and had a gun put in his face.”

"American Jews cherish our own families’ immigration stories. "We recall that we or our ancestors came to this country to escape oppression and find opportunity. "We grieve an American promise that seems to be no more." -- Joint statement by 7 rabbinical groups, asking Trump & Noem to back off

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

Weekend ICE Report (Jan 17–18) Today marks 49 days of ICE in Minneapolis. The information in this video comes from unpaid community volunteers who patrol our neighborhoods to document ICE activity when no one else will. These abductions don’t always make headlines, but they happen every day.

"He blamed the administrations that preceded the current one for having allowed themselves to become so corrupt. Now that the work of removing the poison from that system had been completed, the rebuilding of the country’s childcare infrastructure from the ground up was now his highest priority."

If your revolution doesn’t have sambusas…

Killing people is wrong. This is not a radical statement.

ICE shot and killed someone in south Minneapolis

Dear male White House reporters, The next time Trump insults one of your female colleagues, if one of you doesn’t interject and say “Excuse me, sir, but fuck you.” God is going to lose his mind. Regards, God

Supreme Court oral argument this morning, in sum Sotomayor: you're asking us to destroy the foundation of government (derogatory) Gorsuch: you're asking us to destroy the foundation of government (complimentary)

I love tasting new things, and a few years ago a friend whose family is from the Philippines introduced me to Ube, the purple sweet potato. Behold the micro-level American mixing-pot at work: Ube pie for Thanksgiving! Immigration made our dinner better, folks.

"By the day they raided Café Marko, almost everyone in town probably would have been swept up if they were there."

It could happen.

I'm not into public declarations of philanthropy, but one of the monthly outlays of $ that makes me feel the most satisfied these days is a donation to @democracyforward.org. These are the lawyers and legal minds behind many of the cases stopping this administration from executing alllll their evil.

Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe. Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

what could possibly go wrong?

Women are watching abusive dynamics play out on the national stage and for many it feels very, very familiar to what they’ve experienced regularly— I hope midterms are a referendum

I think about the Raymond Carver story "A Small, Good Thing" several times a week as I read the news and eat pastries, and it makes more sense with every passing day.

“The students said there were desks in the quad manned by the military, where you could get your tuition reimbursed if you enlisted immediately in the research corps. They said no one was signing up, that the soldiers there all looked bored and annoyed.”

In a world where women are increasingly but subtly owned, this could happen.

The high school debate unit, but make it prosecutable.
