There are people who actually say that a voter should not vote for the person who is the less than ideal candidate in preference to the worst one because supposedly you never get progress that way. VOTING FOR THE BETTER OF THE TWO IS HOW EVERY BIT OF PROGRESS HAS EVER BEEN MADE. Sheesh.

"This was...a deliberate choice to penalize a journalist for refusing to sanitize factually accurate reporting, and it sends a chilling message to the entire newsroom....Today, CBS management is...choosing access journalism over accountability and protecting power rather than scrutinizing it."

Hmm. A “6 month physical” followed by cancelling a trip to Camp David because of… *checks notes* scattered thunderstorms. Sure, sure.

The fact that Thomas Massie lost a Republican primary because he wants pedophiles to face justice tells you everything you need to know about the state of the Republican party.

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.

Not enough people understand how much a billion dollars is...if they did, things would be very different. $1.8 BILLION is enough to give each pardoned J6 criminal $1 MILLION... What the ACTUAL FUCK?!

Residents in Fayette County, Georgia noticed their water pressure was unusually low. Turns out that a data center 20 miles away had been drawing 30 million gallons of water in secret through connections the county didn't know existed. Is it any wonder why so many are opposed to data centers?

This 👇 - They have failed both the Judicial Oath and the Constitutional Oath. They are not impartial, neutral arbiters of the law and don't even try to hide that they are influenced by their own personal political preferences.

ICE arrested 3,000 mothers in just seven months in 2025. For Mother's Day this year, call your members of Congress and tell them 'No Money for MAGA Murders - no funding for ICE and CBP'. (1/2)

🚨 HOLY SHIT!!! They white-washed MICHAEL into a propaganda piece attempting to ERASE the fact that he MOLESTED 4 and 5 year-old kids in his secret Neverland Ranch liar. DISGUSTING! deadline.com/2026/04/mich...

Jewish trauma is real. The Holocaust was real. Antisemitism is real. And none of that makes the genocide of the Palestinians and Lebanese any less real.

Pay attention folks. This is how it's done. Trump sues his own DOJ, run by his private attorney, for $10 billion. Normally that would go through the courts with the DOJ arguing AGAINST giving Trump $10 billion. Instead, his DOJ will negotiate a settlement OUTSIDE of court. Literally inside dealing.

There's something missing on Bluesky lately. RELEASE THE FILES!!!

Are we serious right now? Why are we referring to 15-year-old girls as women?

Kerry: I was part of the any number of conversations with Netanyahu. Psaki: Pitching the US strike Iran? Kerry: Yes, he wanted us to strike. He came to President Obama. He made a presentation to ask to strike. President Obama refused. President Biden refused. President Bush refused.
