From Texas to Tennessee, lawmakers nationwide are attempting to impose religion on public schools. They’re pushing the Ten Commandments, organized prayer sessions and the use of taxpayer dollars to fund faith-based charter schools. https://bit.ly/4v8Oy7Q

Operation Epic Fury has been a complete and total success. In four short weeks, we killed their entire leadership, destroyed their navy, and totally obliterated 168 schoolgirls. Nobody thought we could take out that many schoolgirls at once." michaelianblack.substack.com/p/transcript...

Reminder to next dem government: take all of SpaceX’s federal contracts and give the money back to NASA.

We can do this before January 2029 if we impeach and remove both him and J.D before then.

Of all the dangerous and illegal things Trump is doing to tear apart the fabric of our constitutional republic while Republicans remain cowardly silent, in the final year of his term the politicization of the US military may turn out to be the biggest problem.

Think about it. Trump spends the first year of his second term alienating Europe. Then he starts a war that Europe wisely refuses to participate in. Now he and Putin have their “excuse” to withdraw the United States from NATO. Everything he does, Trump does for Vladimir.

#Astros and #Rockets dominating tonight. Just feels weird.

Repeat after me: If they can overturn Roe v. Wade, we can overturn Citizens United… And we will.

Endangered Rice's whales live their entire lives in the gulf, where they're vulnerable to vessel strikes, noise pollution, oil spills and climate change — all of which could increase with more drilling, scientists said. https://to.pbs.org/4sUKB5a

Hello! Today is THE LAST DAY to file a claim in Bartz v. Anthropic. GET YOUR MONEY! Check the works list to see if you are on it here: secure.anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com/lookup/ File a claim here: www.anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com/claim-form

the thing thats just not coming through in the coverage of, well of anything but particularly the war, is that theres literally no reason for any of it and republicans are making your life worse but cant explain why or what the payoff is supposed to be

I served in the Pentagon. Surely, surely Chairs and Ranking Members of Senate and House Armed Services Committees will take action here. What's reported here is a gross stain on America and damaging to the armed services. It also fits a pattern with SecDef Hegseth. Have we no shame. Gift link:

So are the headlines saying the Democrats won this round, or nah? Cause they did. Funding for TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard, no funding for ICE. That’s the deal Dems have been offering over & over. Republicans caved.

Today, I'm introducing my wealth tax — and more than 50 members of Congress are joining me. It’s time for the government to start working for American families, not just the ultra-rich.

I feel like the surrender of the global electric vehicle market to China is one of those things that will, with a couple of decades of hindsight, be vastly consequential. Scaling benefits, technology development, supply chains... A lot of incumbents that depend on export markets will be screwed.

I'm expecting a wheelbarrow-full of pardons for insider trading on January 19, 2029. Note that the prospect of those pardons helps to keep subordinates in line. Corrupt-cop style, make sure that lots of people get a little taste, then make clear that the pardon depends on continued loyalty.

The fact that Zelensky has not told so many people to fuck off who more than deserved it over the years it is a testament to his character, patience and leadership. He never gives up trying to placate and persuade people no matter how ignorant & insufferable they are. I could never do it. Few could.

Rev Black (the priest ICE shot in the head) also pitched turning these camps into community spaces or multilingual schools and childcare facilities. One day we will not only reverse every hate-filled policy of our country, but we will turn the sites of their evil into monuments to community.

Sora being killed and Meta losing bad in court, all in one day? Nature is healing.

Eat shit, lol, and long live The Onion.

DHS has waived environmental laws and begun installing more than $1 billion in buoys along the Rio Grande. Experts say the project has been shrouded in secrecy and could intensify flooding in the region.

I hope no one needs an MRI this year. The world's largest producer of liquified helium is in Qatar and is shut off. We just got a notice that our supply for the year will be at least cut in half. No one could have predicted this (unless they thought about it).

First Mike Davis gets DOJ's antitrust people fired to benefit his clients, then SEC enforcement chief leaves over sweetheart settlements with people--Justin Sun and Elon Musk--who've paid Trump hundreds of millions. Bribery in plain sight. www.reuters.com/business/fin...

SFO

NEW: We have seen DOJ secure a search warrant to seize ballots in Georgia and a subpoena to seize ballots in Arizona. Now a sheriff is seizing ballots in California. This is a crisis unfolding in real time. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

the same number of troops have died in this war that died in the evacuation of afghanistan fyi, weird how the media has decided that isn’t a point to drive home this time

In 1776, Americans went to war rather than send more of their money to Britain every time they drank a cup of tea. In 2026, Donald Trump started a war with Iran and then forced Americans to send more of their money to Iran every time they buy gasoline. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

BREAKING: A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration's restrictions on journalists at the Pentagon are unconstitutional. The government doesn't get to decide what news the public has access to.

From @theathletic.com: The new WNBA collective bargaining agreement means minimum salaries are expected to exceed $300,000, with the average player salary reaching about $600,000. "This isn’t merely a raise. It’s a correction." nyti.ms/4sYZZNH

Republicans are building a police state. Their promise to "get government off our backs" was always bullshit.

The Dow has lost 3,547.25 points in the last month. It's down 7%.

Non-Christian Americans should get an income tax exemption.

This administration does not accept the pluralistic character of the American public. The citizenship of nonChristians is contigent at best.

One death every four days in ICE detention. One every FOUR days. This is passive eugenics. Not an accident.

@katmabu.bsky.social narrowly lost the IL-09 primary last night. But here's a number worth sitting with. Her campaign brought in more first-time Gen Z donors than Jeffries, Schumer, the DSCC, and the DCCC, and her primary opponents combined. This is why campaigns like hers matter.

I know I've said this a trillion times but I have to say it periodically to keep from going insane: The right ran a huge, well-funded, & ultimately successful campaign to completely take over political media & the infosphere more generally. This is by far the most important political development...

Where is the DOGE check. Where is the tariff rebate? Where is the cheap gas? Where is the lower inflation? Where is the healthcare plan? Where are 700% cheaper drugs? Where are the cheap groceries? Where are the lower utility prices? Where is the “no more wars?”

Trump and his friends are in political trouble. Their response? Make it harder for you to vote and disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans. Trump said it out loud: If they pass the SAVE Act, Republicans will "never lose a race for 50 years.” Vote NO.

I’ll be standing in a 3 hour long line at LaGuardia cause yall won’t fund TSA but please enjoy your pointless debate about making people buy $130 passports to vote

Lieu: "Undocumented immigrants want nothing to do with the govt! To vote, you have to first register. How many undocumented immigrants are gonna go, 'Yes, I'm gonna give all my information to the govt that's maybe trying to deport me. No way!' This is a problem that doesn't exist."

Last month the NYT said AOC "struggled" to give an answer on Taiwan and quoted her with "uhs" and "ums" to make her look stupid Yesterday talking about Hormuz Trump claimed he's heard from "numerous countries" and said "uh" four times. The NYT deleted the "uhs" and paraphrased him to look smarter:

bye, bitch

Bring on the prosecutions! www.cbsnews.com/news/gregory...

If he's going to get a national profile on the strength of a younger woman's campaign, I'm going to come out and say it: during his short-lived tenure as a math professor, Biss had an inappropriate romantic relationship with one of his undergraduate students. I was that student.

He wasn't just an asylum seeker. Paktyawal was an Afghan special forces soldier who worked with the U.S. Army's 3rd Special Forces Group. He was evacuated on August 30, 2021, entered the U.S. legally and had a pending case with a work permit and social security number. Killed by ICE maggots.

If you think about it, what has happened here is that the US shut down the Strait of Hormuz and is now using the shutdown to blackmail other countries to do its bidding

#ICEOut ‼️
