@chrismurphyct.bsky.social to Democrats: Don't be suckers. "This is a high-leverage moment, with the world watching to see what we stand for. And we have a chance to actually constrain his attempt to destroy our democracy..." Great @gregsargent.bsky.social interview. newrepublic.com/article/2013...

If a federal judge, appointed by Trump, can call him “simply untethered to facts,” our White House press corps can as well. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

We can't settle for Republicans’ promise of later negotiations. Because every time this Administration says something, they go back on their word. If Republicans need Democratic votes, they need to keep health care premiums from skyrocketing for the American people.

You're either with ICE or with humanity and democracy. Choose.

My favorite actor is not human.

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

thinking about this screenshot from Columbo that makes it look like a 90s point-and-click adventure game

It’s odd Vance is trolling on gratitude because I’ve noted before his complete lack of gratitude to anyone who helps him. Extended family takes him in… he writes book about what losers they are. Mentored at Yale? Take it down. Ohio makes him senator? Suckers

This looked cooler when Kash drew it in his Trapper Keeper after he went to the Slayer concert in 1992.

Kinda wild Apple will kick ICEBlock out of the App Store on safety grounds but the Saudi government app that lets men track women (their “property”) and control their travel is fully allowed even after the Human Rights Watch AND members of the Senate begged them to ban it.

I have never bought the “Hillary Clinton lost because she disrespected Republicans voters and WORDS MATTER but Donald Trump can do ten times worse every day and win 2 out of 3 elections just because” theory

Hope people will boost this. Displays of backbone should be acknowledged.

Donald Trump expected us to back down. Democrats continue to stand up to protect healthcare for everyday Americans. #RepublicanShutdown

the usual story. rich guy wants to punish universities for not clamping down on pro-palestinian protests and for doing too much to recruit minorities. at base these guys want the top tier of american universities to become, once more, safe-spaces for their dunderheaded failsons

These people hate our country. They hate Americans and have declared war on our constitution and freedoms. They should repent and resign

I gotta be real it is extremely doing a number on my mental well-being that mr. cato institue here is taking a stronger stand than the majority of the democratic party. the anti-DHS coalition is uhhhh a bunch of socialists, the cato institute and the neocons as led by bill kristol???

wow I wonder why my entire body was in the air in the first place

President Macron: “Europeans, let's wake up! We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks.” defenddemocracy.eu/macron-democ...

Good stuff

This is a remarkable finding.

You can always depend on Jake the Snake to be a feckless wretch.

Whomp whomp

Jack Posobiec must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Also the law should be retroactively changed to include dunking.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

People in the Trump WH are upset that the Sec'y of Commerce suggested that Trump's former Sec'y of Labor has access to videos of Epstein's massage room and that everyone who spent time with Epstein knew he was gross but he bribed them all into silence with said videos. zeteo.com/p/trump-jeff...

Question for LawTok - The First Circuit's decision regarding Birthright Citizenship gets tossed out by the Supreme Court, right?

Justice Amy Coney Barrett displaying Useless Bitch Face.

Wanna know whose shutdown this is? Pay attention to who’s enjoying it.

BREAKING: The First Circuit rejects Trump's executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship. In the New Jersey-led multistate case, the appeals court, in a 100-page ruling, keeps the nationwide scope of the injunction blocking the EO in place. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session. Want to know why? Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out. Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

It has. Ever since Ronald Reagan signed the law on Emergency Medicare reimbursements. Yell about Reagan. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Nothing says alpha male like dressing up in military fatigues and raiding the apartments of sleeping families in the middle of the night, using helicopters and flash-bangs to terrorize women, children and elders, then leaving them zip-tied outside in the elements for hours.

Rest in Peace and Power, Mr. Cain.

Gee. I hope he’s ok.

starfleet medical officer here. I can tell you that a 72 hour stay in a medbed indicates a serious and potentially fatal health condition.

What was JD Vance and other Republicans saying about inflammatory rhetoric?

The Whitest Kids You Know sketch where the guy asks for a tattoo of Bowser surfing while playing a double-necked Les Paul with a weed leaf and cross behind him.

Here is Anthony Kennedy’s story about the time Antonin Scalia wrote a scathing homophobic dissent calling Kennedy a vapid phony, and then spent months sulking, and then finally apologized in private right before he died, and Kennedy’s takeaway is “wow friendships are so important”

Kate McKinnon should apologize for having fucked Bari Weiss. I don’t make the rules.

Welcome to the karma cafe. Where you can’t order what you want, because you are served EXACTLY what you deserve.

Hegseth wants an army of muscular, white male Christian patriots, eager to do violence (a pull-ups). You might say, “militaries are inherently about doing violence!” True, but in liberal democracies they should also represent the depth and breadth of the country and promote democratic values.

Hard to tell the real illegal militia from the fake illegal militia

a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

“I have no idea what Project 2025 is.” - Trump, October 31, 2024

I'll never forgive my fellow Americans for electing this utter piece of shit. They enabled an entire government full of the worst human beings imaginable and most Americans are too ignorant to even understand what they've done.

this is, beat for beat, like the episode of The Simpsons where Krusty has his George Carlin phase and then tries to tell a crowd that the suits are actually alright and that the Canyonero is a great SUV. just an astonishing unforced error in not understanding his own appeal.

Black folk will tell you: The 1st thing cops say after an incident is always a lie.🤷🏿‍♂️ They lie because there's upside in it for them, and no downside. No matter how many times they get caught lying, newspapers will print their next lie as the gospel truth.🤡 And people stop caring before truth hits

Senate Democrats say they want to restore American healthcare subsidies. A right wing podcaster says what they really want is to fund sex change operations in Peru. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to trust.
