A heart-breaking moment captured in an SS photograph of a group of Hungarian Jews at Auschwitz II-Birkenau in or around May 1944. A child found a flower & is giving or showing it to an older boy. All the people in the picture were murdered in a gas chamber moments later. #YomHaShoah

I was elected as a democratic socialist, and will continue to govern as a democratic socialist. 100 days in — and we’re just getting started.

Happy Caturday, a little relief from the seemingly endless procession of terrible news, Reo and Kitteh napping on a Saturday afternoon.

A milestone in March: for the first time ever, renewables provided more power on the US grid than natural gas.

Glad to see NATO isn’t blindly following the US into this mess.

And in the immediate aftermath, the folks that benefit the most from these cuts are the wealthy. Imagine the implications of having all those essential services privatized.

Yeah, the first place I thought of was ‘Rosedale Park’, which was still predominately white in 1976, soon to be deserted by the white folks in a textbook case of ‘white flight’ spurred on primarily by the election of Coleman A Young as mayor in 1973.

Are we great again yet?

In the run-up to the first Gulf War, SNL had a skit where Dana Carvey, as George HW Bush, gave a speech to the Iraqi people where he said America was a great scorpion and jackals would slake their thirst on the blood of Iraqi soldiers. It was funny because it was so absurd.

some of you on here have never teleported to a waffle house and it shows

This is absolutely fantastic. ht: @maddenifico.bsky.social

Aaaaand he doubled down on his claim.

In case you were wondering: Yes, there is a Jonathan the Great Tortoise angle to the Pam Bondi firing news.

I've never related so much to another human before 🙃

This devastating, emotional, 2-minute clip of the oral evidence from Professor Kevin Fong (@drkevinfong.bsky.social) discussing his hospital visits at the height of the second wave perhaps explains it best. 7/19

Miles Davis' best "jazz-rock" album, IMHO. Inspired Jeff Beck to get more "jazzy." 'Blow by Blow' & 'Wired' The vocal at the end, worth the complete listen. LOVE this record! 'A Tribute to Jack Johnson' When the 13 year old me found who Johnson was, why white America was TERRIFIED.

I'm going to KEEP talking about how Senator Rick Scott, the RICHEST man in all of Congress DEFRAUDED Medicare & is trying to CUT Social Security. Will you join me?🤚

REMINDER: The Republicans who cut SNAP benefits in their Big Bullshit Bill, saying FOOD BANKS would be a more appropriate source of help for poor Americans… Immediately turned around & cut $500 MILLION in funding for… FOOD BANKS. Yeah. Those Republicans. ALWAYS THE FUCKING REPUBLICANS.

"Net migration last year was substantially negative. That is more people left the country than came in... the first time that's happened in at least half a century." That's a huge economic shift.

🧵 How many times have you heard "Blacks are 13% of the population and commit 50% of violent crime"? Well, racists have been using the UCR wrong for their tired narrative. Let's set the record straight. Pull up a seat, folks.🪑 #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

“It was scary. An incredibly frightening moment. Teleporting is no fun.” Gregg Phillips, the head of Trump’s FEMA’s Office of Response and Recovery, talks about the time he teleported… to a Waffle House.😬 More: www.cnn.com/2026/03/20/p...

Before Elvis, she created the sound that became rock and roll. The credit went elsewhere. Sister Rosetta Tharpe blended gospel and electric guitar years before it had a name. Musician. Innovator. The godmother of rock and roll. #SheShed #WomensHistoryMonth

This is everything

Vance can’t tell the truth about why we went to war because he claims he’d ’go to prison’. Okay.

What fresh hell is this?

Too bad, so sad to be Target. Sucked up to Mango Mussolini and all they got was a huge sales slump for their trouble. Maybe Trump can bail them out!

I'm not making this up. if you're an American stranded in the Middle East and you call the State Department help line, you get a recorded message pretty much telling you to go fuck yourself. thank you for your attention to my extremely angry post about it. link is here: bit.ly/409JSAA

Congressional briefings undercut White House claim about Iran threat Pentagon briefers acknowledged to congressional staff that Iran was not planning to strike US forces unless Israel attacked Iran first, undercutting the administration’s claim of an imminent threat as a reason to launch strikes.

The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold. The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold. fuelarc.com/evs/its-offi...

⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️ 🧵 It was the first all-Black protest in America that most people never heard of. It was the loudest protest ever—all without saying a word.🤫 Let me tell you about The Silent Parade of 1917. (cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

If you’re looking to understand who Alex Pretti was, look no further than this video where he honors a veteran who has passed away. He was not a domestic terrorist. He was a good man and a hero. (video pulled on X)
