Marco Rubio was confirmed 99-0 by the US Senate one year ago this month.

"Thompson landed his helicopter between the advancing ground unit and the villagers. He turned to Colburn and Andreotta and ordered them to shoot the men of the 2nd Platoon if they attempted to kill any of the civilians."

They do it because we let them.

Bare minimum the US cannot be allowed to host the World Cup or the Olympics.

Trump the terrorist warmonger rapist pedophile is illegally bombing the city of Caracas in Venezuela

Democrats love war

No one supports a war in Venezuela btw

The world must boycott the World Cup and the Olympics. It is both the only moral choice and will actually get the attention of these dead-eyed clout demons.

Please put the US under sanctions. Cancel the LA Olympics. No international conferences.

Cancel the LA Olympics, scrap the World Cup, the United States cannot be a trusted part of the international community so long as the White House operates this violently and with impunity.

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

Fuck the war criminals in DC

Here's to more solidarity and worker power in 2026.

It’s so awesome that such an innocuous and tame call for people to come together triggers losers this much

I bet Joe used this in family court to discuss why he didn’t pay over $100,000 in child support.

This is the "testing the waters" phase of the playbook. The GOP ecosystem targets groups like Somalis, Haitians, and trans people specifically because they've calculated that the average person's passive disapproval won't ever turn into active defense. They're exploiting public apathy.

At least we don’t live in a world of staggering class disparity in which a tech magnate attempts to quash left-wing sentiment using sexualized artificial intelligence!

If you are a resident of California, the state now has a portal where you can demand deletion of your personal data from 500+ registered data brokers with a single request form, for free. consumer.drop.privacy.ca.gov

Yeah yeah electoral socialism has limitations, and there's still the police monolith, and any political figure will inevitably disappoint you in some way(s), but if you're any kind of leftist and still unmoved by Mamdani you don't know ball

Can we just celebrate the (literal) platform devoted to transportation advocates — and trans advocates! — at NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's inauguration. What would this even look like in LA for the inauguration of our next mayor??? Yes, I am asking for both your suggestions of mayor and advocates 😉

literally laid the modern groundwork for the imperial presidency. see also bush v gore. see also iraq war. see also "reality-based community." literally the trump blueprint. despicable

The 2024 election was a cost of living election and a referendum on the failings of the Biden administration, and the main theme of 2025 was people mistaking that for a total cultural victory for the far right and acting accordingly, to the horror and confusion of average Americans

one last time, for the road

Better things are possible if we keep fighting for it. This year will bring breakthroughs: I can feel it.

Yes and-ing this to say, I absolutely love that his speeches do not sound like he studied Barack Obama recordings as if they were the zapruder or game film. He talks good but does it in his own way.

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

The hater becomes a waiter at the table of success

This looks like a storefront that sells kratom and bootleg dick pills.

Hi all, we have about 27 hours to meet our goal of raising $50K by Dec. 31. If you have been moved by one of our stories, please consider contributing to our EOY fundraiser. PJP is a nonprofit org that needs the support of our readers to keep doing this work. Share, tag, support, amplify, please.

The most depressing thing is how many elites, Harvard professors, NY trend setters, Joe Rogan, seemed to only develop revulsion in being shown that we are all actually interconnected and dependent on each other for survival.

One of the best to ever do it

This happens often #onhere and I usually block and keep it moving. But today, others must also suffer alongside me.

The far right seems to suffer from body dysmorphic disorder at roughly similar rates as the rest of the influencer demographic and their audiences. Tech giants turning the Internet into a giant dopamine casino has made so many things worse.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

“Politicians should run on popular positions people like. No not that one.”

it's genuinely fascinating to me that "you cannot facilitate a genocide against a people and still expect their vote" is too advanced for some analysts to understand.

John Gai carried his sick father to a nearby clinic in a wheelbarrow, but he died from cholera on the way. Gai then pushed the wheelbarrow for hours through the camp to take him to the cemetery: “Nobody should have to carry a dead body among the living.”

Have a lot of work fame-o stories but the funniest one is probably when me and Chloe East nearly knocked each other over in front of the bathroom

I helped Jane Fonda set up PDI on her phone while we were gathering signatures for a jail reform petition together. She went to the Silverlake farmers market and collected like 200 signatures in an hour by letting anyone who signed take a selfie. Awesome lady.

Yes, the city needs to actually repave streets. Yes, the city needs to repair sidewalks. Yes, the city needs to install curb ramps. But the bigger problem is that when LA decides to do anything at all to "help" pedestrians, the result looks like this complete and utter bullshit

What an inspiration to be with Angelenos who not only dream of our city, but are ready to build it together. This movement isn’t from one moment alone, it’s built on Angelenos who’ve tirelessly created and organized solutions for future. Now we’re set to bring community-led solutions to City Hall.

you, an idiot: we should have universal health care me, a TV genius: the average american is going to lose 400 pounds next year

So if you're a family evicted from your apartment, or a mother fleeing domestic violence with her children, or someone unhoused trying to get off the street or out of their car for a night... you're not allowed to stay at these Asheville hotels. Just unabashed discrimination.

In America, where irony is dead, a hotel chain uses a policy denying shelter to local people, for fear of accidentally housing homeless persons… To deny a reservation to the author of a much-lauded book on how American economic unfairness forces working people into homelessness.

When you definitely have not been hornswoggled into filing an expensive lawsuit by a Florida ambulance chaser whose whole deal is filing Donald Trump’s nuisance suits

A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles. When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies. This is outrageous.
