While walking the dog, we were surveilled by the neighborhood watch. Happy #Caturday

Well, this is concerning. My logical brain says, “the courts would step in…congress would…” and then I’m yoinked back into today’s reality. Who’s going to stop him? These are not normal times.

Lets not let them take it all away, ok? ❤️ happy saturday

I don't think you need complex political triangulation when the president is shrieking "I am sending in the WAR DEPARTMENT because Portland is AT WAR!" You should just keep saying that he should be removed from office because he is plainly insane

Trump is ordering the military to use “full force” against an American city, while the Supreme Court declares him the Sun King and Congress hides under a pile of coats. The checks and balances only work when the institutions aren’t run by utter cowards and the complicit

Next level is right. Worth a watch.

So many coverups. Release the Epstein files. Release the Homan tapes. Release the Venezuelan fishing boats evidence.

We got our flu and covid vaccines this morning. 🩹💪 www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/k...

These people calling for bipartisanship! Even now! It’s a level of delusion that defies credulity.

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this. You're welcome

I continue to be amazed at the absolute lack of courage

The only thing Charlie Kirk had in common with Jesus is that Christians get mad when you quote him to them.

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Looked at my data collections for state-backed activity. If the report were a picture:

"To a supremacist society, most of us are acceptable losses. Charlie Kirk is not. To a supremacist society, guns are allowed to kill most of us, and the pundits can debate later how sad our deaths were. But guns were not supposed to kill Charlie Kirk." www.the-reframe.com/acceptable-l...

In September 2025, FBI Director ________ and his Deputy Director ________ will investigate the assassination of _______. Imagine trying to fill in the blanks in this sentence a year ago.

Every presidential candidate should be legally required to do a 30-min interview with Jiminy Glick.

Oliver North and Fawn Hall just got married, you say?

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

This op-ed includes the phrase "a generation of eternal novices" — a scary update on Tom Nichols's "the death of expertise."

Photo passed along from a federal employee from inside the Dept of Labor building, where a giant Orwellian image of Trump's face is now draped outside. Big Brother is watching.

Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."

It isn't until the 26th paragraph that there is mention that what Trump is doing is being challenged as illegal. And it accepts Trump's stated rationale to act. Here is what I think: Trump is illegally deploying the military in blue cities to set the stage to interfere with the 2026 elections.

I did this one a long time ago. I think I've improved a bit since then. #BlueSkyArtShow #skyline #watercolor #HumanMade

"I don't want to hurt you, stop fighting back, you're hurting yourself" is literally the language of an abuser. One of the most banally horrifying things about this administration is that there is no subtext, no dog whistles, no need for interpretive work. It's all just explicit racism and cruelty.

i will never not be amused by how the conservative world is governed by the kind of “affirmative action” they say happens in mainstream institutions. totally unqualified dipshits are handed the keys to institutions because they say the right thing and have the right look.

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

it’s basically trite to note at this point but if this were any other president, and certainly a democrat, spending a ton of money to gild the white house would be a legit scandal

those damned outdoor pigs can't keep getting away with this

From this month's edition of The Onion.

Hello journalists. If you report this you gotta say that under the Constitution he has no power to do it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Hearing Trump speak is often like hearing the voices of enslavers echoing down the centuries.

Hm. The end of this movie has more resonance than it used to. #TCMparty #TSOM #TheSoundOfMusic
