MAJOR NEWS: Prosecutors in Tallahassee are convening a grand jury relating to the Hope Florida scandal, the Herald/Times has learned. This is the charity started by Casey DeSantis that used FL legal settlement funds to campaign against medial marijuana amendment.

It's kind of funny that Trump's idea of how to Make America Great again is to make it what it was like in his 20s and 30s but that somehow doesn't extend to the tax code.

Everything is great

The fascists basically control meta and Twitter/X. They’re about to control TikTok. Now they’re forcing tech company’s to delete apps they don’t like? This is your regular reminder to physically write things down. Document this time in history. Don’t rely on social media.

I always pay attention to what stories People Magazine and other consumer media outlets cover. That's how you can tell that something has broken through the usual political and news bubbles. This horrific Chicago story has broken through. people.com/ice-agents-o...

Please use alt text when posting illustrations or photos or other images. I realize it feels like an inconvenience if you didn't ever do it at the other place, but folks who need it are a zillion times more inconvenienced every single day.

every day I wake up and read a headline that sounds like something a concussed writer for The Simpsons would come up with while trying to make an intentionally stupid joke about George Orwell

Another way to put it, this is not about reality. It's about power. Trump wants the power to declare that the sky is orange, and then to bring the full force of the federal government to bear on the "crisis" of the orange sky.

This is too perfect

Trump wants to gift King Charles one of Eisenhower's swords. The head of the Eisenhower library says you can't do that, it belongs to the American people, give him a replica instead. Trump fires the head of the Eisenhower library. This is how fascism works. www.cbsnews.com/news/sword-t...

happy halloween

It’s your 75th anniversary, Charlie Brown! 💛⁠ ⁠ 🎉 Today marks the official 75th anniversary of Peanuts! On October 2, 1950, the first Peanuts comic strip, shown here, was published in seven newspapers nationwide. Charles M. Schulz was 27 years old.

Portland enacts emergency powers of nudity to check federal overreach.

Some schools will be starved of resources. Other schools will be offered bribes. The end goal is the same. To make the universities an extension of the Trump administration. Shame on any of these institutions willing to take the bribes.

If Fox News just started playing footage on loop for a bit from the Matthew Broderick Godzilla, the literal president would probably bomb Madison square garden

This letter is FIRE, and more Democrats should speak up like this.

as a christian, one thing i love about trump is that he explicitly rejects the teachings of jesus

Trump's memo supposedly defines what constitutes “antifa” beliefs, listing “anti-American,” “anti-capitalist,” and “anti-Christian” views. However, it doesn’t specify whether it will target groups based on actual incidents of violence or simply for professing a certain ideology.

I have lived and worked in and around Chicago for 27 years and I have been assaulted less often than Sen Paul has been in his own back yard.

There are few things in this world more joyful than pictures of Bob Newhart and Don Rickles on vacation together and I honestly hope that anyone who sees this has a love like theirs in your life

Shocking story from one of our members, just happened today. Two men were getting lunch at Wawa, speaking Portuguese, and two ICE officers also happened to be there. Here's the story of what happened next. Watch the whole video on Instagram. www.instagram.com/reel/DPFHSh_...

🤷🏿‍♂️

This is really bad. It won’t get the popular opposition the Kimmel incident did, but it’s way more sweeping and authoritarian. This is an effort to bring the full force of government down on any and all opposition to this administration. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

Looooooong before this crew came along, there was GRADY effing JUDD, who is everything MAGA thinks a cop should be: viciously racist, misogynistic, proudly violent, ignorant and intolerant, just pure white male supremacy on the hoof. Making central Florida a miserable place for years and years now

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.” Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

New argument against AI regulation just dropped. Checkmate, atheists. www.wsj.com/tech/peter-t...

"Well, he was always nice to me" - ancient liberal proverb

A 12-foot statue of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein frolicking and holding hands appeared on the National Mall in Washington, DC on Tuesday, September 23. A plaque under the statue states that it has been erected “In Honor of Friendship Month."

very funny that the feds found some scammers and immediately trumped it up so they could claim they disrupted a terrorist cell, like no, dude, they were gonna text your grandma about her Medicare bills

This story is wild. Even for crypto. Worth a read.

Bacially almost all the major black and white characters were born out of homages to minstrelsy. I talk about this in my Character Design classes actually

Historians and citizens who say they are concerned about the Trump administration's pressure on the Smithsonian are working to document exhibits, as they exist today, throughout the museum network. n.pr/3Kdrsdy

Bluesky, just here to say I appreciate you when things are otherwise no laughing matter

Well, obviously Jimmy Kimmel was wrong to suggest that MAGA World was making a spectacle out of Charlie Kirk's death.

Tampa Electric Co. customers paid, on average, the highest energy bills in Florida for June, and the second highest in the nation compared to other major utilities, which reported their data to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

It includes "challenges with corporate sponsorships, reductions in county, state and federal grant funding, and the discontinuation of DEI programs under Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, has made it increasingly difficult for our organization to sustain ongoing operations for 2026."

If they're going to try and retcon Charlie Kirk, then we should try to retcon him too.

This is far more disrespectful than any joke I've seen by the left about Charlie Kirk
