Trump's 'war on drugs' in Venezuela? Straight-up imperialism BS. World's largest oil reserves + socialist gov't = regime change excuse. Strikes, CIA ops, troop buildups—all to grab the black gold & crush sovereignty. Not narcos, it's Exxon dreams.

To be unaware of one thing you don't wish to talk about is convenient. To be unaware of *everything* you don't wish to talk about is either lying or incompetence. Or both.

Republicans can dish it out but as usual can't take it...

"In unison." Amen. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

The World: yeah, fuck that place!

I noticed that Trump's neck has camel toe.

ICE agents interfered with—and even threatened to “shoot and arrest”—emergency personnel rescuing an injured protester last week in Portland. The agent “pointed his finger at me in a threatening manner,” the driver recalled, “and began viciously yelling in my face. newrepublic.com/post/201774/...

Meet Bobby Walker who thinks rape is epic. This is who the Guardians of Pedophiles is grooming.

Someone I know has friends in the military and they're being apparently deployed to Idaho for no real reason but it seems connected to this Qatar thing. Everything is really stupid

the claim that protestors are "creating chaos at the expense of" Broadview residents who "lack the protestors’ privilege" to go back to their neighborhoods is v sus on what basis are you assuming that protestors are ~outside agitators~ and not residents mad about what's going on in their community?

"Most Americans probably don’t have a detailed grasp of what’s happening with ACA subsidies right now, but once people start getting letters notifying them of how much their premiums are going up, it will become a much bigger issue."

"That is the behavior of a dictator, and Mike Johnson's job is to stand there and tell you that all of it is completely normal." @saletan.bsky.social has a story today on how Johnson is a flunky who will rationalize Trump's crimes.

"Conversion therapy" is a polite name for something that isn’t conversion and isn’t therapy. It’s abuse.

Chat when trying to consolidate authoritarian control over the military, is it generally a good idea to humiliate 100s of soldiers whose lives you just threw into chaos with a random deployment for being fat by replacing them w/ other soldiers who aren't fat but whose lives you are also disrupting?

“I spent three nights in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen & veteran.

JD Vance is LYING. These firings have NOTHING to do with the shutdown. Donald Trump is CHOOSING to fire these scientists to threaten Democrats. Trump is destroying what little is left of our public health infrastructure, and we will NOT be ready for the next pandemic.

Help me out here. When did Biden take office? Who was the FBI director on January 6th? Who appointed that FBI director?

This sadly demented man doesn't realize *he* was president on Jan 6, 2021. Get him in an assisted living facility ASAP.

The firehose of easily disprovable lies from Trump and his allies continues to get worse each month, with one statement after another completely untethered from reality, which is why it is so important for them to take ownership and control of media platforms & intimidate others.

The deportation order derives from the crime of which he has now been exonerated. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

It's Sunday my "antifa" adjacent friends!! That means we've survived another week of physically and mentally weak people who think they're "alpha" everything. They are not🤣 Today's giggle is from the fabulous duo of Tina Fey & Amy Pohler playing Noem & Bondi. Stay safe y'all! #SheShed

I mean…😂

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters. And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

Yep, all this shit is on Mitch!

“After entering a home in Texas without a warrant, [DHS] agents shot and killed a family’s dog and then fled the scene.” www.reddit.com/r/somethingi...

So if Russ Vought and Bob Kennedy were deliberately trying on behalf of an enemy to sicken and kill Americans by destroying the public health structure - what would they be doing differently?

The Right claims that Christians are being attacked for practicing their beliefs. It's true. In the streets of Chicago.

Of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most.
