Pls call your Senators and tell them to oppose the GOP’s Save America Act: 202-224-3121. This is important bc MAGA is still trying to pressure Thune to force Ds into a talking filibuster in the hope that exhaustion or unforeseen circumstance will prevent Ds from succeeding. It’s all over X today.

Remember, choosing not to post is just fine.

These are calls for mass political violence, against all Democrats. They openly call for the bombing of "Democrat" cities and for the jailing or killing of Democratic politicians. They are from some of the most influential voices in right-wing politics. Will anyone say anything?

I ignored the murder of Melissa Hortman. Here’s why I’ll be talking about the murder of Charlie Kirk all day today. by most liberal pundits

It's possible ... hear me out, here …. It may well be that these people lie their asses off whenever they exhale

Ten year old student who witnessed shooting: "I heard [shots] again. I just ran under the pew and then I covered my head. My friend Victor saved me though, because he laid on top of me. But he got hit... He's really brave, and I hope he's good in the hospital."

Homicide mortality, per CDC:

"If you don't stand for the invocation, I'll have you removed" was what Lt Gov of TX Patrick said as he threatened to have Texans removed from the gallery if they didn't stand to participate in a prayer. We are not a Christian Nation & no one should have to participate in prayer. #Pinks

Stephen Miller Tears Up As Son Says First 14 Words

Hello journalists. If you report this you gotta say that under the Constitution he has no power to do it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

And here I was thinking the way to solve hunger was food.

Trump could give Ghislaine Maxwell a pardon on his last day in office exchange for favorable testimony now (SCOTUS has already said he can’t be prosecuted for it). She knows he’s her only chance for release. That means any “new” testimony she offers is inherently unreliable unless backed by evidence

Giving this speech while adjourning the house to cover-up the Epstein files belongs on the Mount Rushmore of hypocrisy. Amazing stuff, Speaker Johnson

Donald Trump says Coke is dropping high-fructose corn syrup for real sugar. In terms of public health, it's a better idea in theory than practice, writes @nicholasflorko.bsky.social.

The ‘Daily Show’ co-host reminded MAGA of Donald Trump’s extensive ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

I encourage everyone to read this letter. Please then realize the president is imposing a tax on American consumers to leverage a foreign nation into making a domestic political decision that will help one of his political allies.

really interesting that the vice president cites as a key intellectual influence a guy who thinks black people are natural slaves

Paramount has joined Disney in paying bribes to Donald Trump, the Washington Post killed its Harris endorsement, Fox News functions as Republican state media, and the X algorithm amplifies fascist content. Here's why the media has a liberal bias problem.

How profoundly sad. The kids deprived of reading Calvin and Hobbes are the kids who need them the most. My brother put it best: "We know we’re fucked when they come for your cartoon stuffed tigers." Let's go sit in the grass and crack open "The Days are Just Packed." pen.org/magic-tree-h...

I'm going to call this the era of "A Million Substacks". If anything's going to make me miss traditional media, it's that every half-literate jackhole that thinks they have a point to prove has started a Substack site. Actual publications mean nothing anymore.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Joe Biden says he's started treatment for his prostate cancer and the prognosis is good. Donald Trump says Biden was executed in 2020 and was replaced with a legion of clones. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to believe.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Every document coming from RFK Jr. and his minions should be written in comic sans. These are not serious people.

Trump Shares Own Experiences As Victim Of White Genocide theonion.com/trump-s...

“Here is why I think that the ‘cover-up’ of Biden’s ‘true condition’ is beside the point—and why I’m not really vibing with the umbrage-mongering: It’s pretty much impossible to ‘cover up’ for something that is hiding in plain sight,” @markleibovich.bsky.social writes

How many of us said, "I'd rather vote for a [insert vegetable here] than Trump?" I did, and meant every word. It never mattered much to me who the Dem nominee was. Could someone other than Biden or Harris have won? Perhaps, but repeatedly trashing Biden now doesn't fix that.

Pretty incredible that Jeff Bezos' Amazon announced a "$5 billion-plus" partnership w/ a Saudi AI co launched by Mohammed Bin Salman and sent CEO Andy Jassy to meet with him less than 7 years after MBS murdered Jamal Khashoggi, a columnist for Bezos' Washington Post. techcrunch.com/2025/05/13/a...

Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi went to a consulate in Istanbul to get a document he needed to get married. Instead, he was murdered and dismembered on the orders of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, now a close pal of Donald Trump.

In 2024, Biden signed into law a $105 billion measure designed to end a shortfall in air traffic controllers. In 2025, Trump came in and instead began firing hundreds of them. So you can see how *clear* it is that Biden is to blame for the shortage now.

I know, norms and all that, but the default Dem position should be: We think this is illegal but if the courts say you can do this then we are going to rip the guts out of the entire conservative movement. No more Heritage, FedSoc, etc. All of them lose their tax exempt status.

Not a word of this is true. Literally not a word.

The correlation between people who actively worry about "echo chambers" and people who would be punched square in the face if they spouted their shitty ideas in public without a whole internet as a security barrier is pretty damn high

In THIS administration we value WARFIGHTERS who WARFIGHT the enemy and if you’re not WARFIGHTING the enemy to DEATH we don’t want you in the DEPARTMENT OF WARFIGHTING, take your “logistics” and “intelligence” BULLSHIT somewhere else this place is for WARFIGHTING WARFIGHTERS WHO WARFIGHT. GRRR!
