X is absolutely cooking the brains of the entire political class that remains on there. The ones who think they're immune are probably the most affected.

propaganda works. I suspect it probably works better on people who think they're immune to it

Wow: Amnesty International official says they were sharing info with the Biden-Harris admin as soon as October 2023 that there wasn't even a "semblance" of Israel following international law. They kept trying again and again — soon declaring Israel was committing genocide. Admin kept ignoring them.

Hey remember the shooting in Minneapolis that happened between Renee Good and Alexi Pretti, the guy they claimed was shot by an agent after he had attacked that agent with a shovel? I know it's hard to believe but the agents' story fell apart and charges were dropped. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/u...

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

I don’t know what this is called but I’m pretty sure it’s the cure for male loneliness

Ad makers will never say the quiet part loud, but they increasingly know that we're unhappy and looking for solutions.

Terminally online “revolutionaries”: “read theory and burn down a Walmart” (does neither) Wine moms: commits arson on a possible ICE warehouse in broad daylight

I’m just going to leave this here

New York Magazine’s coverage from 2007 treated her as a joke & backgrounded Epstein raping her. (“rococo law filings filed by William J Unroch, Esq, on behalf of his client and maybe-girlfriend, Maximilia ‘Ava’ Cordero, a self-described model who claimed that at 16 she was molested by…Epstein”)

Mood

JD Vance getting booed, as called around the world (auto transcribed & translated, mostly):

"It’s hard not to read these files and come to the conclusion that Epstein helped engineer the ultimate elite impunity — in which our society has been totally destroyed so the richest and most powerful men in the world can do whatever they want." Read more from @lopatto.bsky.social: bit.ly/4kF9C1j

From Epstein to Bezos, the ruling class is rotten to the core. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Why Is the Media Not Touching Jeffrey Epstein’s Clear Connection to Israel? They’re instead focusing on the possibility that Epstein was a Russian asset, writes @premthakker.bsky.social. Read now: zeteo.com/p/why-is-the...

When you hear Dune won an Oscar

Epstein had many known connections to Silicon Valley CEOs, but less known was how he made money from those relationships. We did a deep dive into how he got dealflow in Silicon Valley, giving him shots to invest in Coinbase, Palantir, SpaceX and other companies. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/05/b...

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

Was talking to a random nice older woman from East Isles last night and ICE came up. She then detailed, totally free of irony, her plan for reforming US government, which included the simultaneous mass execution of every leading member of the Trump administration, many of whom were mentioned by name

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023. The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets. https://ow.ly/jy8a50Y8kM3

DHS said that the woman CBP shot in the chest in Portland was “involved” in a gang shooting. Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.

Video of his remarks where he says, verbatim, that one of his jobs as leader is to funnel more aid to Israel 75% of Democratic voters oppose sending Israel more military aid, as do 66% of independents and 60% of Americans overall according to recent polling

Grunge-rock star Kurt Cobain, of Nirvana, bought a used 1965 Dodge Dart 170 four-door sedan for $2,500. His sister Kim sold it at auction in 2022 for $375,000.

"microtransactions in games started by cabal of pedophile elites for the purpose of indoctrinating kids into an economy" Ok. Well, we all knew it was evil somehow but I really didn't expect Epstein to be responsible for why video games are bad now. That's just not what I would've thought.

It makes you sound crazy to say this out loud, but it's becoming increasingly clear that the United States government has been effectively toppled by a group of overt pedophiles

Elon Musk, Jeffrey Epstein and Woody Allen on a Carribean island at Christmastime? www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

ELON MUSK: your island is so freaking like, based. it's seriously like effing amazeballs. i'm going to basically be making like all of mars totally just like the same as how epic this is STEPHEN HAWKING: jeff rey why, did you in vite, this lame, ass nerd

REVIEW | Melania Trump is a scowling void of pure nothingness in her ghastly film

Hey @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social someday we're gonna find out all the horrifying details that we don't yet know about the camps ICE is sending people to and it's gonna be on you. Chuck might be dead because he's old but Hakeem is gonna be around to see it.

Just a reminder, the greatest living American historian filmmaker, Ken Burns, released a 720 min exploration of every facet of the American revolution using zero generative AI and paying for all of its assets instead of cobbling it from stolen data, then he gave it away for free on PBS this year.

the only war is class war people have been awfully quiet as the government builds out its secret police with the stated aim of disappearing nonwhite migrants 🤔

I'm not happy about it, I'm not proud, but this is instantly what I thought of, seeing this, and I have to be honest about that.

And, as a final testament to Alan Alda on his 90th birthday, let us never forget that he was not just a strong advocate for passage of the Equal Rights Amendment, he was literally chairman of Men For The ERA & traveled the country for it for YEARS while starring in one of the top-rated TV shows

We lost over 10,000 scientists from the U.S. government. Most pushed out via threatened terminations, harassments, and via decimating reductions in force. Dark times ahead.

ICYMI: I looked through a published archive of Boston newspapers from the 1760s, when British troops were stationed in the city. The accounts read remarkably similar to what's happening in Minneapolis. radleybalko.substack.com/p/two-cities...

Abolish ICE. Nothing less.

Pro Football Hall of Famer John Randle posted a statement about ICE as text overlays on various portraits of himself and I kind of love it

Ta-Nehisi Coates: With the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, "Trump has clarified an inconvenient fact—the culture war is an actual war"

I am just gonna say it, these guys are completely emasculated by the knowledge that they have been out-organized by a group that is significantly made up of women, and all the bullshit call of duty nonsense is cope for their wounded egos bsky.app/profile/jeet...

TikTok has been under new leadership for like a day and I made a slideshow with posts from the ICE rally today and it immediately got out under review and is not being published. Incredible.

Amazing statement from the chaplain of the MN Timberwolves, I’m guessing in response to the craven press release co-signed by so many local CEOs today (inc the Timberwolves!) calling for the “deescalation of tensions” here but refusing to assign any specific blame or even *mention* ICE / CBP

Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds playing CSNY’s “Ohio” with a little “Killing in the Name Of” thrown in.

I'm not going to post screenshots for obvious reasons but I have been alerted that a bunch of the top posts in r/MassiveCock are anti-ICE now and anyone who defends ICE in comments is getting yelled down lol

When you realize you used your influential platform to make this version of our country happen

These monsters are sick.
