So on the one hand, he wants praise for the Abraham Accords but on the other hand he is trying to avoid responsibility for October 7. Thread that needle, Donnie! You can do it!

We should’ve been so much more dismissive and hostile to anti-vaxxers. If we ever get our hands on the wheel again, it’s the end of “religious exemptions” and the end of then “being allowed in or near public buildings, hospitals, schools”. Fuck them all.

I think all the time about the part in Pride where Bill Nighy as the old union steward says, of the right-wing tabloids, “I don’t believe what they say about us, why should I believe what they say about them?”

My Khan quotes Andor

he came to trump's attention by lobbying to pardon other war criminals, including a guy who decapitated a teenage civilian in front of his squad and whose own men fucked up his sights so he'd stop shooting random women. he belongs to a church which considers slavery and marital rape to be mandatory.

essentially every business he has ever been involved in is fraudulent. he preferentially does business with dictators. he sent thugs to threaten to kill a baby. pete hegseth stole money from veterans. he lies about being involved in war crimes. he's a serial rapist and domestic abuser.

i think one thing people have a hard time grasping is that the central figures of the trump administration are not bad as in "the worst republican blowhard you know," but bad as in "the worst people you have ever heard of." donald trump is a serial rapist whose best friend was a pedophile.

If they're going to try and retcon Charlie Kirk, then we should try to retcon him too.

The highest paid cop should make less than the lowest paid teacher

Not enough people understand or contend with how stupid he actually is. It’s like a joke or a shallow insult to a lot of people. They don’t base their analysis on that defining fact

Couldn’t make a crueler caricature if I tried

I have something to do that I do not want to do, so instead I will make a thread of some of the various ways this painting has been described in #ALTtext. Feel free to add.

There’s several ways to reduce the number of Trump voters. Voter suppression, for one.

When you see a pretty lady

More accurate face proportions

It would really own me as a Lib if they retaliated for Charlie by going for Schumer. I’m sure his ass will be at the funeral

Writers I like who are getting purged from their publications for opposing fascism are starting newsletters… *on Substack* smdh

when they used to say "twitter isn't real life," what they meant was they thought progressive viewpoints were overrepresented there.

Oh it’s me, Charlie. I’m in Heaven now. So sorry I died

With Disney Adults on our side in a “taking shit seriously” competition, we can’t lose

This is a new fear? The NYPD successfully publicly threatened the mayor’s daughter. Cops have been waiting for a fash president.

Now, five years after the collapse of her public image, it might be time to revisit Lydia Tár’s case. Was her cancellation a product of a fleeting era when people spoke earnestly about “safe spaces” and “microaggressions” – a time when the left, not the right, was doing the canceling?

perhaps this is why people keep screeching about bsky being a bubble that no one uses and also is influencing everything like, this (presumably) un-dicked-with flow of content is painting a picture that looks out of whack with FB and twitter etc

So in the live-action Little Mermaid, the implication is that King Triton either adopted his daughters or had concubines from several different ethnicities

People still writing things *against* fascism on *Substack* (For those who won't click on Substack links, here it is in the wayback machine)

The media company that can figure out how to produce news or news adjacent video content without relying on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitch, broadcast TV, cable, or corporate streamers will make a billion dollars and probably help save American democracy — or exist long enough to document its end

Part of the reason that media corporations are folding to the Trump administration is because they have no belief that Democrats will ever do anything to punish them. Dems offer no deterrence so of course they're going to do whatever gives them more access and money.

the triumph of the pilled

What’s at stake here is free speech. Across the board, we’ve seen the Trump administration use the power of government to go after anybody who’s criticized them — and in this case, Jimmy Kimmel. We need to all stand up and speak out.

Tucker knows about getting taken off the air for political reasons

honestly think the kimmel thing is gonna be a massive normie turning point.

My 64 year old mother is Sephiroth posting over it so yeah I think it might be

@lastweektonight.com you guys better have a plan for when the administration comes for you. we can’t afford to lose any more.

This is how you give fascists a platform

Leak the Epstein files

John Oliver better have a plan for when the administration comes for him

Yesterday, Trump was threatening a reporter. Today, he coerced ABC to kick Kimmel off the air. He's also suing NYT & WSJ for reporting the truth. And it's not just media: he's threatening private companies, colleges, Congress—everyone. Enough. NONE OF US should cave. We ALL need to push back.

Robert Redford on Richard Nixon's death. Not much changes, I guess.
