Tuesday morning: New CBS boss promises “huge emphasis on scoops.” Tuesday evening: CBS Evening News anchor interviews his mom. www.yahoo.com/entertainmen...

In a better world, we'd joke about this for at least a little while

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem. Thank you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

There's no Trump "pivot" until we see real investigations into the government's killings and real accountability for them. As Rep Jamie Raskin notes here, someone in the White House is ordering DOJ to cover up these killings. Someone in DHS is directing this. Who? 4/ newrepublic.com/article/2057...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

i very much respect that Candace is a messy bitch who loves drama

People are saying that Stephen Miller is the reason why President Trump did *not* receive the Nobel Peace Prize from the actual Nobel Committee and not just a second-hand participation trophy from a much cooler person who had earned it and took pity on him.

As far as I know, she is not on this site, but the timing is perfect. "January 28th is NATIONAL KAZOO DAY! (If you think this isn't actually a real recording, I'm afraid you're wrong.) #NationalKazooDay " --Sandra Boynton (from FB).

For everyone’s safety, they should move the Summer Olympics, too. Sorry, LA.

US ARMY COMBAT MEDIC (who is now planning to leave the country): “ICE ‘can’t find’ my husband” uk.style.yahoo.com/veteran-leav...

I was just following orders

🎶Riii-diii, Scoiattolo, della tua storia d'amore finita! Ridi del dolore che avvelena le tue ghiande!🎶🎭 (Laugh, Squirrel, over your broken love! Laugh at the grief that poisons your acorns).

In Minneapolis, far-right influencers posing as journalists are casting themselves as victims and labeling ICE-watch groups “terrorists.” Their big new evidence—“infiltrated” Signal chats—isn’t a secret, had no calls for violence and urged people to witness, not interfere. www.ms.now/news/minneap...

There's no way you can keep funding a federal government who's primary mission is to inflict pain on the population. Every federal agency from McMahon at DoE to RFK shredding HHS and everything in between. Every day we let them stay open is more time we'll need to repair the damage they've done

Bezos spent $40 million on this, of which $28 million was a direct gift to the Trunp family, plus another $35 million marketing blitz for a propaganda clunker absolutely nobody could have believed would recoup even a small fraction of that cost. It is a flat bribe, right out in public.

I would say that not only is this a good idea, it's a moral imperative.

This woman has more courage than every member of the Democratic leadership caucuses in Washington combined. And there are tens of thousands of everyday people just like her who are finding courage to confront evil face to face while our "leaders" dither and argue over semantics.

Ban us from the Olympics. For real. Fucking ban us. Put your foot down. www.bbc.com/news/article...

It’s been 38 days since the Epstein files were supposed to be released but weren’t.

Street art memorializing Alex Pretti in Seattle. Per r/Seattle, it was painted on a building facing Swedish Hospital in the First Hill neighborhood www.reddit.com/r/nursing/co...

my grandmother, an Auschwitz survivor, was Anne Frank’s neighbor in Amsterdam, and Oma thinks this comparison is perfectly apt

i'm being flip but when i think about the guys who are gassing preschools and putting children in camps and killing people both on and off camera--complaining about WHISTLES--i understand why dante was like no, we need way more kinds of hell. at least nine

🚨TENNESSEE Rep. @votegloriaj.bsky.social files a resolution calling on the DOJ to comply with the BIPARTISAN law requiring them to release ALL the Epstein files. Will the @TNGOP supermajority join? Call your reps. 👀 (cc: @rokhanna.bsky.social ) www.capitol.tn.gov/Bills/114/Bi...

Universal in all languages, actually!

Just in time for a new funding fight, WaPo reports that DHS has not really investigated ANY of 16 shooting incidents. Dems should demand real investigations for all of these (maybe get Robert Storch, fired DOD IG to do it) AND ALSO LaMonica McIver event. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

To agree with and amplify what Dr. Prescod-Weinstein is saying here, this documentary was released in 2022. Like everything Ken Burns and his team does—it’s well worth your time. www.pbs.org/kenburns/us-...

"Echo" seems right because in an echo it's the exact same words in the exact same register and timbre, but a little while later.

Denying the Israeli genocide of Gaza and not committing to abolishing ICE are two non-starter positions for Democrats in 2026/2028. I don't care that you testified against Trump and got famous off it.

If I see you use this word, I'll block you. If you use it "satirically" I'll block you. Using it at all today is a really fine test of character. I've had some of my books edited because I used it twenty years ago and I'm ashamed today of having used it. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/26/u...

All institutions should strive to be like the AAP. Consistently under threat, consistently refusing to bend or compromise on their ideals.

BREAKING: We’re suing the Trump administration on behalf of the family members of 2 Trinidadian men killed by a U.S. missile strike while traveling home from Venezuela by boat. The government must be held accountable.

Border Patrol shot someone south of Tucson this morning. Three gunshot wounds. No other details atm.

The U.S. has now killed 126 people in boat strikes.

“This is a preschool you stupid motherf*ckers!” (From Somali Snaps)

"Removing bovino doesn't solve the problem" I dunno, dude, it seems to entirely solve the problem of having bovino around. Bitch is a first town boss in a jrpg. He's not the end, but beating him allows you to progress and feel good about it.

In these exceptionally dark few weeks I’ve found a lot of comfort in STARFLEET ACADEMY! It’s hard to pick a favorite character from among the fantastic cast but I knew my first piece of fan art would have to be Sam! Also I want pajamas with little warp cores printed on them. Now.

JANUARY WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE IMPROVES

new life motto just dropped

Marimar Martinez is so brave.

As a Canadian, what I've learned so far: - Minnesotans are very nice and VERY organized - Mainers are aggressively xenophobic but in a way that lCE will not like - Philadelphians crave the blood of their enemies - LA is ground zero for chaos tactics that never lose - New Yorkers love gay hockey

Watch this space. The idiots in the regime are including ICE agents in diplomatic protection details abroad, and Italian elected leaders are not having it. The mayor of Milan calls ICE "a militia that kills."

The Bari Weiss plan is for CBS News to employ fewer reporters charged with finding things out and more (right-skewing) commentators charged with telling them what to think. Same playbook Wash Post is using. www.npr.org/2026/01/27/n...

They bid a final farewell to Alex Pretti at the veterans' hospital where he worked as a nurse.

Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)

Today is "Large boulder the size of a small boulder" day!

Remember: short jokes aren't funny. Calling Greg Bovino the "one-third Reich" is, however. Don't look at me, I didn't make the rules.
