Trump is “strongly considering” Fox News host and former prosecutor Jeanine Pirro as interim U.S. attorney for DC, ABC reports

When we enable imperialism under the party that is meant to stand for progressive ideals, how can we act shocked when the one that openly stands for white supremacy takes those same tools and runs with them? The tools of empire always come home.

Fascism spreading got you down? Don't worry! Our former *progressive* leaders are securing those sweet Hollywood talent deals while the world burns! 🫠

Jocelynn was 11. She played French horn. Made TikToks. Told her mom she loved her every day. Then her classmates started threatening to call ICE on her family. The school knew. Did nothing. She died by suicide. This is what happens when we enable fascism’s foot soldiers.

You know what we think? That you can't *claim* to be on the left while making excuses for atrocities under Dem rule. That you can't *claim* to be on the left when your Insta-activism stops at the border. Time to choose: Real collectivism or just more American individualism playing woke dress up?

While billionaires measure their knob-rockets and politicians debate who deserves to live, communities are quietly building something they can't control, can't co-opt, and can't stop. Here's your guide to finding (or starting) mutual aid networks near you:

Last year in the U.S., while gun manufacturers raked in BILLIONS in profit, 16,500 human beings died from guns and 31,000 were injured. First graders. Teenagers. Moms. So remind me again what the Second Amendment protects? Because it sure isn't us fellow-peasants.

2023: "I was the worst!" 2024: "Hold my weapons contract . . ."

A generation learned to count bodies under desks before they learned algebra. Now we're shocked when they do corner office calculations?

We only need 30% of global resources for everyone to live. Your death is just better for their profit margins.

Explain to us how their spreadsheet deaths don’t count as terrorism . . .

We taught an entire generation of kids to hide from death between math and recess — now we’re clutching our Patagonia vests because they don’t shed tears over a healthcare executive who denied coverage to cancer patients while pocketing millions?

I know the CEO of Ticketmaster is having a bad day lol

BREAKING: The FTC has announced a new rule banning junk fees for tickets and hotels. This final junk fees rule bans bait-and-switch pricing and all tactics that corporations use to hide the total price of live event tickets, hotels, and vacation rentals.

Pleased to share this interview with @theprogressivists.com where I share my thoughts on the biggest issue impacting humanity, my favorite book, who inspires me, and the most ridiculous hill I am willing to die on. Enjoy! :) theprogressivists.substack.com/p/the-anti-b...

U.S. selective justice is wild right now: - Challenge corporate violence? House arrest - Express healthcare rage? Ankle monitor - Run insurance death panels? Corner office throne + bonus check - Spend a trillion while people starve? Just normal 🎄 things! Welcome to hell, bring marshmallows.

As the news comes out this morning that RFK Jr's lawyer is petitioning the FDA to revoke approval for the Polio vaccine, let's remember what Polio looks like. For many, it meant living as a prisoner in an iron lung. (Photo from @nytimes.com and @apnews.com)

Going after this woman so hard for using that slogan did nothing but reify for the American public that already saw Luigi’s act as carrying so much of their own rage that these corporations are as evil as they were said to be. So maybe they still rule us, but there’s no illusion it’s popular rule.

They regularly bomb abortion clinics, shoot schoolchildren and unarmed black and brown people under arrest and… silence. But one CEO gets murdered and we need a “national conversation about violence.” Noted.

Welcome to the U.S. in 2024: Where expressing anger at insurance companies who deny up to a third of all claims, rake in hundreds of billions in annual revenue + force hundreds of thousands of families to beg for healthcare on GoFundMe has become a more serious crime than actual violence . . .

What happens when Scrooge isn't just one miserly old man, but an entire fucking empire with nuclear weapons and a PR team, hoarding a third of the world's wealth while its people die from preventable diseases?

A nation where people ration insulin while UnitedHealthcare posts $324B in revenue isn't a society. It's a pressure cooker.

Congrats to Florida! #1 in book censorship #47 in SAT scores. Way to go! #floriduh

Here’s the thing about *selective* anti-racism: It’s just fucking racism with better PR.

The CEO of UnitedHealthcare, Brian Thompson, was shot and killed in midtown Manhattan this morning. See also: 1) UnitedHealthcare have amassed a staggering $22 billion profit in 2023 while actively lobbying against Medicare for All and universal healthcare initiatives

Women's reproductive health hangs in the balance, but if you mess with a man's penis, that's a $412 million mistake

Welcome to this week's Fuckery Report, your weekend autopsy of imperial crimes and capitalism's greatest hits. Pour yourself something strong, because this week's fuckery comes with a Black Friday discount on human dignity . . .

243 days ago, Israeli forces attacked World Central Kitchen vehicles, killing 7 aid workers from across the world — including the US. The US did not respond with policy change. Today, Israeli forces reportedly attacked another car carrying WCK workers, killing at least 5 people.

If the Democratic Party was cut off from corporate influence, and powered only by the people's grassroots efforts, then thousands of additional Americans would donate and offer unpaid labor for this movement, which means Democrats literally don't even need billionaires, but our system is captured.

Australia’s oldest dictionary of Australian English has chosen “enshittification” – a slang term referring to the deterioration of products and services online – as the word of 2024.

Reminder for NYC political journalists: three victims of Andrew Cuomo are suing him in state and federal civil court. I am not one of them. When you write your stories, make sure they are accurate and not carbon copy lies of his one man propaganda machine.

In what should be a surprise to absolutely f'ing no one, the Pentagon has failed its latest audit. Again. For the seventh time. "We failed, but we're making progress!" defense officials proudly declared, explaining they’re tracking more assets than ever before. Sure, Jan.

WHEN BLACK PRISONERS ARE SETTING THEMSELVES ON FIRE to escape racism, let's skip the palatable bureaucratic term of 'systemic racism' and call it what it is: white supremacy burning Black bodies.

From ICC warrants to WWE cabinet picks: Welcome to 'The Fuckery Report', your weekend autopsy of imperial impunity, reality TV taking over reality, and how the DNC red, white and blew it all.

Ok some peeps that are great folks to follow on here (that aren’t repro focused) @saadia---m.bsky.social @famousblonde.bsky.social @theprogressivists.bsky.social @bookersquared.bsky.social @lindsaymeyerharley.bsky.social @theconsciouslee.bsky.social @underthedesknews.bsky.social

Anyone else still receiving emails from the Dems begging for cash? All while they've laid off 2/3 of their staff with zero severance. Many of whom have dedicated years to the DNC only to now end up running GoFundMe campaigns to survive. I don't know about you, but we want off this f'ing timeline.

Okay y’all. It’s ☎️ time. #HR9495, a.k.a. the *Dictator’s Little Helper* bill, is a threat to democracy that must be stopped. Passed by the House today, 219-184, the bill empowers the Treasury Secretary to unilaterally label nonprofits as “terrorist-supporting” and revoke their tax-exempt status.
