at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses.

Folk music has always been about resistance.

50 years of movies warning about tech driven dystopia and we still just saunter right into it.

“That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Does this look like a “domestic terrorist”? @KristiNoem needs to resign. @JDVance owes her son an apology. Shame on everyone.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

As you listen to DHS and ICE offer their excuses and justifications for murdering an American mother in cold blood, a quickly-forgotten reminder from Chicago: www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

Arrest the murderer and arrest Bovino. Not complicated.

This is murder.

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.

Spheres of influence? Oil revolution? Imperialism? A new political theory argues that we're thinking about Trump's global takeover all wrong. "Actors are debasing themselves to this order, like the Swiss bringing gold bars and Rolexes to the White House to avoid being targets of tariffs.

Kelly: This letter or anything that Hegseth says or does to me is in no way going to affect the way I do my job. His option is he can continue with this kind of bullshit or he can go take a hike. That's his options.

I am pleased to announce that I have commandeered my neighbor's home. This home will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, to ensure it is used to benefit my neighbor and me! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Gallego: "The reason why you have Article 1 power is because you don't want to let idiots like President Donald Trump make foreign policy decisions without their being a check and balance against that"

Supreme Court supports business owners denying service to customers they feel violate their beliefs‼️

We failed to hold the right-wing oligarchs accountable for the coup on January 6th, Russian interference, the subprime housing crisis, the WMD lie, Iran Contra, Watergate, and the confederacy. Elect people who will.

30 years ago they were like we have to ban song lyrics for the children but it’s full steam ahead for the here’s how to do drugs until you die machine

this is small comfort given he has state power and i don’t but i am struck by what an obviously weak and fragile man miller is. a blubbering piss baby whose entire affect and personality is an attempt to make up for his profound feelings of inadequacy

The broken clock speaks.

In a nutshell.

If Nicolás Maduro stands trial in the United States and gets convicted of 34 felonies, does that mean he’s qualified to be our next president now? Just checking what the standards are these days.

Actually, that exactly how JURISDICTION works unless you have an extradition treaty

Oskar Fischinger (1900 – 1967) abstract animator, filmmaker, and painter, known for his musical animation and special effects. He worked on Fritz Lang's Woman in the Moon, influenced Disney's Fantasia and in late 1940s invented the Lumigraph. 1/ 🧵

I don’t understand how the first reaction from leadership isn’t “This is an impeachable offense. My colleagues must defund Hegseth and begin drafting articles immediately.” Like, even if it doesn’t get done, how are you not planting this flag in the ground immediately?

It’s almost like green energy is the only way forward and a handful of oil barons are doing everything in their power to keep that from happening so they can get even richer at the cost of literally everything else in the world.

Why does Israel have ANY say in the US Constitution?

This is why they want us talking about day care centers and $500 boots.

Fog in Tucson is fairly unusual - so we’re all, “Hey look at that!” this morning.

Dammit, who leaked this?!

Courage and Hope. I love this

Save this, it's perfect.

NINETEEN YEARS AGO today, I put down the crystal and never picked up again. I had lost 3 years of my life being someone I didn't recognize, but I fought (HARD) and saved myself. I'm forever grateful that I never have to exist in that nightmare world again. #igotclean 12/26/2006 #addictionrecovery

Scientists at Princeton have created this reconstruction of what Elon Musk would look like today without gender-affirming surgeries 😆

I love the smell of panic in the evening. Smells like…victory
