Why am I blue? Because I'm holding my breath until Orion makes a safe landing in the Pacific ocean and all the crew of Artemis II are safe.

BREAKING: House Republicans block the Democrats’ attempt to pass an Iran War Powers Resolution—refusing even to allow a vote. During a pro forma session, Rep. Glenn Ivey sought unanimous consent to advance the measure. Presiding GOP Rep. Chris Smith ignored the request and abruptly gaveled out.

ICE agents shot another driver -- on Tues. He had just asked to call his wife. They shot him six times. One bullet his jaw. Now he can't speak and has been mostly unconscious. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/09/u...

Look it’s me in my favorite show. And again I must stress: I am NOT doing this show because of Jason. I was a fan before him. Thrilled to be on my favorite show with people I genuinely love. Alex is there as well. youtu.be/oRfHA2d3DhM?...

Doesn't know how to start a fart

House Democrats tried to pass legislation aimed at stopping Trump’s illegal war with Iran — and the GOP wouldn’t allow a vote. Republicans know this war is indefensible. Urge your elected officials to keep fighting to reclaim Congress’ power and end Trump’s war: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...

I don't want the US military under the control of Trump anymore. I know that seems obvious. I just needed to say it.

New season of Taskmaster! This is appropriate escapism.

How come Stranger in a Strange Land hasn't been turned into an HBO or Apple TV series?

My daily reminder that the rule that Matt Gaetz used to oust Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House still exists and can be used by any Republican to call a vote on support for Mike Johnson which could lead to a new Speaker that actually wants Congress to do work.

Every credulous buffoon in Tech Journalism:

America: Votes against Republicans. Republicans: Fights to limit Americans' ability to vote.

Victor showed the rest of the crew which button to press for Classic Rock.

All it takes is for 1 Republican representative to call for a vote on the Speaker of the House to reset the agenda and start getting accountability and checks and balances back into government. Mike Johnson is failing at representing America's best interests.

Dumb science question... can you have geosynchronous satellites around the moon? I just heard about blue ghost and the latency issue and was thinking that wouldn't be an issue on Earth because of geosynchronous satellites.

A last-minute ceasefire doesn’t erase President Trump’s reckless decisions that got us here. Congress must immediately return to DC to pass the War Powers Resolution and remove the President from office.

Thought experiment: You get to reboot America. The government, laws, treaties, etc are null and void. You are stuck with the people, industry, and infrastructure that is here. The world is paused until you put in a new structure. What does that look like? State governments still exist as is.

I've seen celebrations related to military victories. This doesn't look like any of those. Hell, there was more celebration after we invaded Grenada.

Turns out Russia, Russia, Russia was worse than we thought

Where's Congress?

Where's Congress?

Are you surprised?

Just wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Congress SHOULD BE ENROUTE TO WASHINGTON, DC TO IMMEDIATELY START THE IMPEACHMENT PROCESS!

Iran did not have control over the Strait of Hormuz before the start of this war. Now it does, and it is using it as leverage in negotiations. The Iranian people are not free, the regime is still in power. The world has sunk even deeper into crisis and global poverty will probably increase. 🧵

Trump's two weeks are his hope that something else will come along to distract us from the distractions.

Taco Tuesday. I am grateful though.

Trump said today that “a whole civilization will die tonight.” This is insane.  He is openly threatening massive escalation in Iran. Congress needs to immediately vote to put a stop to this. It is a constitutional duty to vote on war powers and both sides should demand this.

“A whole civilization will die tonight," is plainly threatening genocide and war crimes. Congress MUST step in. Republicans need to join Democrats to take action. Call Congress back into session—we should vote to end this war immediately.

Dear Congress, Is it a war yet?

Republicans in the House of Representatives needs to kick Johnson out as Speaker. That is something just 1 of them can cause to happen. That could pave the way for Congressional action against Trump.

A reminder that while speech is free threats can get you detained and questioned which can ruin your week. Don't let glibness and the desire to be edgy ruin your week.

Speaking of Threads, this one got me in the feels.

A general strike on May 1st? I'll have to take PTO. Welcome to America.

Where are the billionaires? Have they all snuck off to their private emergency doomsday bunkers?

Trump is a child who learned that if he goes to play with the electrical plug all the adults in the room make a bunch of noise and give him lots of attention. Even if he deescalates from this threat, he knows he can do it again and get lots of fun attention.

Insane. Psychotic. Dangerous. Irrational. These need to be acceptable words when talking about Republican President Trump. We need to stop gently saying "mentally unwell" and "dementia".

How long does it take to wipe out a civilization? When Rome went to war against Carthage, it took 3 years. The problem with hyperbolic bluster is it is either easily dismissed or if taken at face value, means those threatened by complete destruction will take desperate actions to prevent it.

The President of the United States is posting threats to do genocide and we’re ‘supposed’ to “just go about our day?” I cannot.

In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists. Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.

In 1953 Iran had a functioning democracy. A free press. Seven political parties. Women in universities. Women granted voting rights in municipal councils in 1952. A secular prime minister named Mosaddegh who believed Iran's oil belonged to Iran. The US and Britain decided he had to go.

The Republicans in his cabinet refuse to invoke the 25th Amendment… The Republicans in Congress refuse to impeach the motherfucker… And lastly, the Republicans on the SCOTUS have granted him “absolute immunity”… This nightmare continues for one reason, and one reason only… REPUBLICANS! 😎✨

Me, joking: I can’t believe we chose “destroying the economy” and “losing wars” over “being nice to trans people occasionally” Conservatives, dead serious: it was a tough choice, but I’m glad we picked “destroying the economy” and “losing wars” over “being nice to trans people occasionally”

@CBS it doesn’t matter WHAT you put in Cobert’s time slot. We aren’t watching it. Never feed the rats CBS announces sale of ‘The Late Show’ time slot after Stephen Colbert signs off - Variety

So Trump is saying he wants to flee to South America once his term is done (to avoid prosecution?) sounding very post Nazi Germany in my opinion.

We obviously need tighter controls on the military. Secretary of Defense can't be appointed by the President, their loyalty needs to be towards the people of the United States through Congress.
