I'm going to sound like a broken record by the way I keep mentioning how 95% of Somalis in the Twin Cities metro area are US citizens, but very few mainstream outlets are pointing this out. This should be very basic stuff for any news organization.

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

So angry at Northwestern

In fairness, this is also Cybertrucks when there is LESS than an inch of snow 🤷‍♂️ #TeslaTakedown #MuskMustFall

Release the MRI results

I wish Secretary Duffy would concentrate on keeping the skies safe and leave the moral hectoring to me. I'm better at it.

Bill Cassidy has done infinitely more for the antivaccine movement than he can ever claim he has done to promote vaccination. He is one of the worst antivaxxers to ever live.

Our very own FVR members representing us so well at #removetheregeime in DC this weekend!!!

Imagine, if you will, that NASA updated its website to suggest gravity might not exist, prompting CalTech and CERN to release statements saying, "With great sadness, we can no longer recommend listening to NASA." This is what's happening in epidemiology.

On the one hand, I admire what MTG is doing. On the other hand, only monsters put up a Christmas tree before Thanksgiving.

Ayo @npr.org did y’all ever apologize for this? 🤔 Talk about aging terribly. Yeesh. Maybe it’s at least time do a little introspection? www.npr.org/2024/08/25/g...

This is one of the most important articles I have read. As a librarian who has spent a lot of time helping students find trustworthy data, this is a devastating read. @thebulwark.com @crampell.bsky.social Trump’s One Weird Trick for Eliminating Bad News: Delete It open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

Hero

The CDC website has been lobotomized. Where it once presented the decades of evidence debunking the false claims of a link between vaccines and autism, that has now been replaced with junk science.

New MRI, please.

Whether it’s Barack Obama, appearing in a tan suit or Donald Trump appearing 1700 times in Jeffrey Epstein‘s emails, both presidents made some highly controversial appearances.

ICE vs the clergy

Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.

And here's a YouTube link. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oj0P...

behold! the end result of the conservative Christian values movement!

@thereisnocat01.bsky.social I really miss @thereisnocat01.bsky.social posts 😥

My wife and I pay for life insurance even though we have never died. I pay for fire insurance even though my house has never burned down. That's not because we want to throw money at insurance companies. It's because THAT'S HOW INSURANCE WORKS.

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise. Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families. Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

The greatest con the Right ever pulled off is convincing America that mainstream media leans left.

It is embarassing that only a news outlet from the UK has an accurate headline while our local papers keep saying "reports" without specifying a liar made that report. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social enjoy Vegas! lol

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

This shit is so crazy and so obviously our biggest problem underlying everything and anyone who says otherwise is either greedy or blind We said what we said

Some charts for those who don't know the extent of the US public (and private) investment in research (particularly in biomedical research) compared to other countries and institutions. The destruction of the US' scientific institutions has global implications.

Trump just held a Gatsby-themed party at Mar-a-Lago, which proves a) he doesn’t give a shit about the millions of Americans starving without food stamps and b) no one has told him how The Great Gataby ends

FACTS about SNAP: -35% to white people (largest share) -90% to people born in 🇺🇸 -86% to households with kids -70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)

A big reason I decided that this is the year I become a full-size bars house for Halloween is that my city is occupied by fascists who have to be told by a judge they can't tear gas kids in Halloween costumes. If a kid is still going to come up and ask for candy, they're getting a full bar.

A judge blasted Border Patrol's Greg Bovino for violating her order to stop using excessive force against peaceful protesters & journalists. “Kids dressed in Halloween costumes walking to a parade do not pose an immediate threat to the safety of a law enforcement officer.” blockclubchi.co/4qukilG

It’s too bad only farmers are people and not librarians or artists or healthcare workers or researchers.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

The New York Times publishes a handy guide to which federal forces are terrorizing us at any moment. This is America, 2025.

People saying things like "oh come on, why do you care about a little Nazi symbol?" is, in the very question, a sign of decline. The answer "because Nazi symbol," with no further explanation needed, was assumed. When we had that consensus, it was better.

Demolition of the facade of the White House’s East Wing has begun. The demo is so Trump can build his big ballroom that is reportedly costing $250 million. (Video via Getty)

Danville, KY showed up for No Kings this morning

@gtconway.bsky.social: "I think that if people weren't getting together and doing this at this moment, we would be in big trouble...We're going to see bigger, and bigger, and bigger events."

The No Kings March in Chicago is one of the largest gatherings I’ve seen here. Looking down from by the river, the crowd stretches for blocks down Michigan Ave and wraps around Wacker Dr. This video is from a few minutes ago and the end of the protest is nowhere in sight. @blockclubchi.bsky.social
