And just so we're all clear on this, when your children are dying from preventable childhood diseases because of "reasonable concerns," you can thank Jesse Singal, Ben Ryan, Abigail Shrier, the Atlantic and the New York Times

Bus perverts

According to Kristi Noem, when you name-call government officials like this, you are encouraging other people to assassinate them—and that is treason.

Totally illegal.

Fucker owes me a decade of my life back.

And these will be the same dudes that will tell women to "humble" themselves.

The three journalists who helped ruin Ava Cordero's life when she tried to stop Epstein in 2006 *currently* work at NBC News, New York Magazine, and News Corp Australia. The one at NBC News is covering... Epstein.

They're quite literally pillaging the government.

"I can destroy the country." Just another fucking weekday in America.

Fetterman Slams Democrats Planning to Skip or Protest Trump’s State of the Union: ‘Never Going to Go Well’

The Roberts Court has a clear set of guidelines: the president can do anything he pleases, so long as it does not violate the rights of the owning class.

WATCH: “Johnny, you blatantly lied.” Rep. Johnny Garrett, running for Congress, RUNS 🏃🏻 from us + Tennessean reporter Vivian Jones to 🦆 Duck Q’s about his lie that undocumented immigrants commit 50% of crimes in TN (Per the AG it’s 2%, 90% of those non-violent/traffic. Also we’d love details.)

Oh boy @danielbiss.bsky.social not great

CNN: Apparently the breakfast had been going well. Then Trump became enraged. He started ranting about the decision, not only calling it a disgrace, but started attacking the courts at one point saying: these f’ing courts

I like to think that this map of all the regional names for woodlice in the UK could also be a map illustrating the new tribes of humans to be found on the same landmass after The Great Digital Crash and ensuing breakdown of society.

"It is difficult to comprehend the level of state-sponsored criminality we are witnessing because our country has never experienced anything like it."- #NYDailyNews (wait'll ya experience the midterms...) #AccountabilityIsComing ⚖️

During Trumps first “Bored of Peace” meeting he casually announced he’s going to attack Iran this weekend, if they don’t do what he says. Then he promptly fell asleep.

SO GOOD! "the idea that my political ideology is synonymous with hating technology is confusing. Every leftist I know has a hard-on for high speed rail or mRNA vaccines. But the “left is missing out” blog positions generative AI as the only technology that matters." -- @xoxogossipgita.bsky.social

The Mondotheque, an extremely early analog analogue of the Internet, allowing a curated central "International Museum" or "Mundaneum" to allow any person with one of these telegraphs to send, request, and view documents via 'electric telescope' from the convenience of their own home.

Mike Huckabee says Israel shouldn’t have to pay a single penny for the war or the reconstruction of Gaza and everyone else should pay. “Free stuff.”

Lady in white, "Andrew Windsor was followed around by protection officers at all times" #BBCQT "The royal family would have known what he was up to many years ago" "The royal family aren't blameless in what Andrew has been doing over the Epstein scandal"

Beshear: "If somebody is looking for a Democratic version of Trump, that's not me. My goal is to bring people together, my goal is to heal the country. You can't do that if you're engaged in the same tactics he is. If that's what the American people are looking for, I'm not their guy."

Grieving Prince Andrew Asks For 12-Year-Old During This Difficult Time

Less than one year ago, immigrants' rights activists watched in frustration as Maryland Dems gave up on ICE ban in final hours of the session. Times have changed. Governor Moore on Tuesday signed into law ban on ICE contracts. Nine sheriffs have to end their partnerships.

I know the US has done a ton of atrocities globally, but it’s really something to get so mad about one *good* thing we were doing that you turn it into a new atrocity. They KILLED MILLIONS OF CHILDREN with a keystroke and a grin, not a second thought. Unimaginable evil. Vought/Musk Hague 2027 Tour

DHS has a larger budget than the entire Canadian military. Where does the DHS funding go? Israeli security scams and Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale's VC investment in Israeli security technology.

🧑‍🌾 FOX: “A pretty grim picture”

If a Prince can be held accountable, so can a President.

The camps are for citizens, or foreigners visiting the U.S. who dissent or criticize or question the authority of the government and the new American emperor, Trump.

The sentencing of ex-President Yoon in Korea for insurrection reads like one long subtweet.

we couldn't use government funds to buy coffee (like, folgers ground coffee) when i worked on a CDC outbreak emergency response

i still have no clue why any of you listen to me

this is how the average voter understands politics

The President is taking a *pre-noon* nap. In public. At his big event. On World Peace. This will go mostly unremarked upon outside here. Meanwhile, the commentary class thinks it deeply important to inform you that AOC said "uhm" a few times in response to a question on the same topic a few days ago

RFK Jr/MAHA disciples, you got PLAYED. And everyone else saw it coming except you.

When in the South…

They're denying treatment to ICE detainees with HIV in the prison where Nicolas Maduro and Luigi Mangione (and, I feel obligated to add, the guy who shot Jam Master J) are being held.

I think it's important for the "all government people are corrupt crowd" to really hear this. No. No, they're not. This is why I'm excited to see some of the laid-off federal employees start to run for office. Americans need to hear from those who've actually done the work of governing.

Lord Hailsham used to trot out this line to American students who came to his talks: in the UK we have a republic masquerading as a monarchy whereas in the US you have a monarchy masquerading as a republic.

La brigade spéciale anti SVI (Syndrôme du Ver Inconnu) arpente les rues de Priyadansket continue à faire respecter le confinement. Les halls d'immeubles sont régulièrement enfumés à l'aide du gaz de combat Kombinat 327, afin d'interdire toute sortie inopinée. #MidJourney
