very shock, stop press

Well, let's fucking go!

Our tax dollars are being used to make dating videos for seniors

Man, my dad was not progressive in the least, and I still think to myself that I'm glad he's not here to watch the sad pathetic losers turn governance into authoritarian racist bullshit.

Remember that little ICE guy? Dressed like a Nazi? Looked like one of those little goblin-faced dog?

Just remembered that the only time I've worn election gear ever was in 1988, when I sported a Jesse Jackson for President pin on my jean jacket.

I am now convinced that federal holidays are imposed to break your spirit.

I finally listened to the Dan McQuade memorial episode of @defector.com podcast the Distraction. Was holding off, bc crying. It was fucking great.

This is not going how shadow president Stephen Miller fever-dreamed it would go.

You thought voting lines were long before!

Trump violence workers are already pariahs, they just don't know it yet.

Have you ever once seen the New York Times quote Trump like this?

Oops

It is very obvious who the bad guys are on this.

I, as a clumsy person, wonder how durable those shelf labels are.

Harper’s Letter signers are assembling their rapid response team, I’m sure

Ah yes artists, famously undedicated to their work, never obsessive, who don’t understand {checks notes} creating things. This shit right here is why people hate you AI assholes. Myopic and arrogant. You’re not creating or iterating anything? You literally invented a soulless box to do it for you.

Very strong retro Mike & the Mad Dog vibes

Hey maybe prosecute Pete Hegseth for murder.

LFG

Where ..?

Trump tried everything possible to create riots in Los Angeles, Portland and Chicago and failed. Even had film crews in tow to create propaganda videos. Instead they got peaceful resistance and observers. Upped ante in Minnesota hoping for George Floyd murder response. Failed again. Miserably.

"It is completely inappropriate to seek to weaken Canada, to go and ask for assistance to break up this country from a foreign power" 🟢 Agree: 81% ⚫️ Disagree: 19% Read it free: open.substack.com/pub/canadian...

Musk finally declaring war on the Amerca-hating French and Italians.

It really is amazing how much of political punditry, *especially* elite outfits in NYC and Washington, still embrace this bizarre idea that rural spaces represent the "Real America" while metropolitan areas, where most (presumably real) Americans actually live, should be held in contempt.

Just as ICE and CBP have no legitimate role in "election security" neither does the head of DHS. The mere existence of this press conference should be a scandal, much less this tone-deaf comment.

Tell me again how labeling medical misinformation and (temporarily) banning links to the NY Post Hunter Biden laptop story were the worst examples of government censorship in U.S. history 🫠

This is a factually inaccurate claim. Polls indeed show voters say they trust the Republicans more than Democrats to "handle the issue of immigration", but (a) the GOP lead is within the margin of error & (b) this is not "firmly behind Trump's handling of the issue" www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/u...

US Troops killed all the guards at Dachau for this kind of shit.

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

What really galls is that these soulless turds could easily accomplish all of their heinous goals without this utter smirking lawlessness

It further boggles the mind that the administration is doing so and chortling about it.

I mean

This creep-ass lying sack of shit can take his paper bag full of unmarked bills and shove it up his ass.

Hard to get good and properly depressed, what with all this despair

This is a fucking lie, @senmullin.bsky.social is either a fucking idiot, or a fucking idiot who lies so Trump won't get mad at him.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones. Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

NEW: Jonathon Redondo-Rosales, a 36-year-old LA protester, spent six months in jail accused of assaulting a federal officer with a *cloth hat.* A judge tossed out the DOJ’s case, accusing govt of acting in “bad faith” and engaging in “prosecutorial harassment“ that could “chill lawful protest”

Fuck these fascists.

You guys don't get yourself correct with AI, you're gonna get left behind, just like you were with NFTs.

They've determined a crime occurred, they just need to figure out which one

Not entirely unlikely that a certain grand jury is about to get charged with seditious conspiracy

Hey is that ~good~? Is that a country you want to wave a flag for?

During the Japanese Internment, their property was confiscated by the government and/or sold for as little as 10% of their value to locals. I just wonder what happens to immigrants' homes and other property when they're send to a camp and deported?

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?” There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

Age confirmation: "the stupid, it burns"

Age verification? In this economy?

I thought no one was supposed to peek at the jobs numbers until they are released?

not the most horrifying aspect of the story about the Boston Irish guy currently imprisoned in an American concentration camp, but: ICE forged his signature on documents to make it look like he was agreeing to be deported. How often are they doing that? How often have they gotten away with that?
