With thousands of teachers using ZEP people's history lessons each year, we hear powerful stories about the impact these lessons have in classrooms. Here are just a few. Please donate (find link on post below) to help us reach more students in 2026. www.zinnedproject.org/news/impact-...

”The problem of misinformation in the current age, argues political scientist Samuel Bagg, is not that reliably truth-producing institutions and practices don’t exist, but that people have ceased to trust them.“ Changing that requires far more than fact checking … www.volts.wtf/p/the-cure-f...

Hum.

In case you were wondering, Jack Smith's testimony was the *opposite* of "total exoneration."

The reduction in the number of insects is noticeable. 6 hour drive from Adelaide to north of the Flinders Ranges, hardly any dead insects on the car. No need to clean the windscreen every 2-3 hours. It is very concerning.

Cool.

Q: “To the extent members of Congress are up in arms this happened to them, who should be held accountable?” JACK SMITH: “Trump. He directed his co-conspirators to call them to delay the proceedings.” As @MarshaBlackburn @SenatorHagerty try to take millions from taxpayers. 🤔

Caving to Trump: The Top Ten Worst Offenders of 2025 www.telos.news/p/caving-to-...

The Trump Cabal is destroying books, documents and journals that belong to the public. Why is no one stopping them from knocking down buildings and destroying stuff?

The surprise is what? MAGA won’t care about the truth. They are so entrenched in their felon 47 delusions that acknowledging the truth would destroy their fragile mental competence. Dems should go on a full blown attack and pound it 24/7.

Understanding the smoke and mirrors that trump is using in the situation off of Venezuela is critical. Most Americans do not know that he is killing fisherman in boats and claim they are drug traffickers. It’s escalating. China has ships there now. www.dropsitenews.com/p/trump-vene...

I'm speechless. Go ask your maga relatives why they support this.

This hurts.

The dream of taking younger generations on big Canada fishing trip probably not possible in my lifetime, as Canada burns.

So, the CIA is a branch of the armed forces now?

5.2m pages? The Fedl Budget with documents is 1,500 pages. 5.2m is 3,466 of those budgets. Or, if Ep. lived 24,328 days-- they've gathered 21.3 pages for every day of his life. I don't believe it. Or 42.6 pages for every day of the last half of his life. No way. There is some other message here.

This latest reporting shows Bondi, Blanche, and others at the DOJ have been lying to the American people about the Epstein files since day one. The less than 40,000 pages that have been released represent less than 0.01% of all the total documents. They are hiding something.

Exactly.

Enormous amount of evidence that UBI programs work. The opposition they face is overwhelmingly ideological, not practical. Ask your reps why they won't follow hard empirical evidence.

Stephen Miller thought cruel bigotry would be work. That many Americans were as hateful as he, and others couldn't do anything about it. Instead, as @gregsargent.bsky.social writes, he prompted a pro-immigrant backlash. As bad as things are, that's one reason I'm feeling hopeful heading into 2026.

Smeared Andrew's head, slashed Chris & Kenny's-- but A-Train more intact, though serious. Come to the show!

He was supposed to serve 10 years and pay $36 million in restitution for defrauding investors. Never served a day. Not Somali.

Persuasive arguments work often, in differing degrees-- often they leave little evidence, for they are dissuasions. The wickedness of them is not naive failure, but that they often come with unvoiced threats-- especially in the mouths of people identified with powerful commercial institutions.

Be sure to mark your calendars and VOTE THEM ALL OUT IN 2026 !

Such an excellent thread about how moral panics can be whipped up and exploited, even when it starts with literal insanity. How many times has government-funded child care been killed by the GOP? Goes back at least to Nixon…

Do it. Somebody has to.

If I were actually a free thinker who questioned everything I might get to wondering why my government tries to make me mad at Somalis every time something new comes out about Epstein

Remember what I’ve been telling you about Iowa? I’m there almost every month to speak to organizers. I see it. They see it. MAGA is in trouble.

Now, for the apologies? @sophiatesfaye.bsky.social has been kicking ass. www.salon.com/2025/12/31/p...

Miller is a lost, deplorable, cretin who acts as if he subconsciously thinks that the way to be powerful is to be the most racist against his own ethnicity and all others that aren't white descendants of western europe? It's beyond bigoted and stupid!

Sen. Jeff Merkley is calling for an insider trading investigation after a Guardian report exposed fossil-fuel billionaires and Trump donors buying more than $12 million each in company shares right after meeting top Trump officials. Days later, their company got a crucial export license.

Worked 'n worked 'n still cut off Kenny's head! Well, Kenny's got his head & you should come to this show!

Judge Tosses Charges Against TikTok Streamer Shot by ICE as Video Refutes Agents’ Claims
