Calling it now. It's gonna be the...

The most pathetic group of people on the planet are those who got virtually everything they could ever want from two American presidents in a row, from different parties, and they're still mad because they have bumped up against the limits of American patronage.

No, we really don't have to.

Inflation is at a three-year high. Everything costs more — groceries, gas, healthcare, a plane ticket. The math is simple. Every American dollar spent overseas on war is a dollar that could’ve been spent here at home to pay for a dignified life. It's time we change the equation.

real Goofus and Gallant hours / which way modern mayors???

It's not inexplicable. Trump promised to make everyone rich and prosecute their enemies, while Democrats didn't actually have a candidate until late July.

People keep saying gutting the VRA and Trump were reactions to the first black President being elected but this is all shit that conservatives have been obsessed with doing ever since the VRA originally passed, along with dismantling the Great Society and the New Deal.

PS. I’d love a signal boost for these important & inspiring figures & stories! @profloumoore.bsky.social @hdichter.bsky.social @nlbm.bsky.social www.saturdayeveningpost.com/2026/04/cons...

I love this stupid country so much, what a beautiful tale

NEW—I got an exclusive excerpt from a USAID whistleblower's new book that made me gasp multiple times. It details Trump's dismantling of the humanitarian aid agency & his team/DOGE's shocking ignorance to public health. 'Into the Wood Chipper' by Nicholas Enrich is out tomorrow. Read excerpt here:

Personally I think when a world leader announces “Tune in tonight at 8pm Eastern to watch the world end” like it’s the fucking season premiere of Roseanne we should have a different leader the next day.

This is the most incredible footage of blue whales I’ve ever seen

gotta do investigations into DHS “waste, fraud and abuse” as pretext for killing the agency

roses are red violets are blue tom homan’s a bitch greg bovino, too

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

If you're trying to raise awareness on this issue, saying "Citizens United" is sub-optimal. Say "unlimited money in elections" or "removed donation limits." Saying you want to get rid of united citizens automatically confuses people who have never heard of the case.

The only way we're going to get to "comprehensive immigration reform" is with a general amnesty of unauthorized immigrants in the country. If Reagan can do it, so can we. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ysmg...

You're laughing? The team that lends their plane for deportation flights and whose owner is best pals with Trump got utterly humiliated in front of a hundred million viewers, and you're laughing?

It's been said many times, many ways: the fascists thought winning an election would mean winning the culture, and the fact that hasn't happened is making them rabid.

Dem leadership: changing this is a difficult process, you fool. You rube. You utter infant. Give us between $5 and $50 Mamdani, wiping grease off his hands: So it turns out there's a switch on this machine that puts it into either orphan-shredding mode or free school lunch mode. Just had to flip it

I want to live in an America that is better than this because I know America is better than this. We are going to build an America that’s better than this.

Once you believe that empathy can be toxic or that compassion is a finite resource you're only a short distance from being able to excuse or ignore murder ... particularly when you don't agree with, understand, or identify with the victim.

I’ve been calling to stop DHS and ICE funding since Renee Good was murdered. Americans are watching in outrage while their neighbors are murdered on tv and cities get taken over. Senators have the power to do something about it. We need to stop funding DHS now.

THREAD. Every year, I tell the story of Ezell Gilbert. It's the story of one of the most remarkable cases in U.S. history, and you’ve probably never heard of it. The story of what the U.S. government did to him is vital for understanding the current moment we are in.

You should be embarrassed to be a member of congress and issuing anything other than impeachment resolutions. You're in the model UN. They should give you legos and a propeller hat

Allow me to connect some dots for you: Too much of the world currently relies for its basic functions on resources which must be continuously extracted. You burn that oil one time and oops, now you need more. Geopolitical horrors are, in fact, one of the reasons we need to move to renewables ASAP.

we have to figure out the exact amount of wealth that drives everyone who attains it permanently insane and stupid. it's way less than a billion but there are some low end millionaires that seem reasonably intelligent. i think 14 million sounds about right

www.goodreads.com/book/show/22... one of the most hopeful books I read this year

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." -FDR, 1937

You ever just sit down and realize that the rise of 21st century fascism is capital's answer to climate change?

the other funny bit is that "free market think tanks" like this insist they're focused on "protecting taxpayers," but they'll literally NEVER mention the fact that giant region telecom monopolies are slathered in untold billions in taxpayer subsidies for substandard access they never fully deliver

Have some self-respect. You are citizens of a republic, not Donald Trump's courtiers. Stand the fuck up.

Feed Musk’s wealth and power into the woodchipper (distribute it to the less fortunate via the government)

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Of course I'm worried about socialism. I mean, just imagine if Mamdani one day becomes President and nationalizes industry, imposes historic tax hikes, goes after the media, builds a secret national police force, militarizes the country, and sends people to camps.

You’re scared of Spanish? Do you also piss yourself when you see your own shadow

The caning of Charles Sumner was so brutal if you just filmed it based on the historical record it would be the goriest thing you’ve ever seen on film.

billionaires should not be allowed to exist because the downside of "one of them loses their mind" is simply too dangerous for a functional society also, having a billion dollars tends to make you lose your mind

It’s pronounced cyclist.

I've read a couple of history books and I can tell you for sure that rounding up your generals, having a drunk yell at them and call them fat, and then stopping paying them that same day is absolutely how you institute durable personalist rule

Posting early 90s minivans as a timeline cleanse.

2️⃣ Private wealth is at record highs in all advanced regions. Public wealth, by contrast, has declined to turn negative in North America, fall near zero in Europe, while East Asia has stabilized with 25-30% of national wealth in public hands.

1. At Charlie Kirk's vigil just now, DNI Tulsi Gabbard just invoked MLK Jr.'s line, "Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that." She insisted Kirk "lived" by that line. Unclear how Kirk would've felt about that comparison, since he decried MLK as “awful” and "not a good person."

Never forget that one of the big reasons that social media is so heavily slanted towards bad moderation and ignoring violent rhetoric from the right is that they did have automated tools that deplatformed far right rhetoric, but they turned it all off because almost all Republicans got caught too

I know I am saying this on the internet, but… We gotta turn off the internet
