@oscar-lucinda.bsky.social My friend on Bribie just contacted me about the big storm. Are you okay?

Kavanaugh stop. Smashed the kid’s car windows and arrested him. He told them he was a U.S. citizen. The officer replied “I don’t care.” www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

Of all the things that never happened during any Trump interaction ever, this never happened the most. What utter bullsh*t.

If this is true, it would suggest that #Russia has considered dangling some sort anti- #China alliance with the #US, as part of a #Ukraine war resolution:

The number of war crime investigations open in Ukraine at the beginning of the fall was 178,391, Kyiv's top prosecutor told CBS' "60 Minutes" in a program airing this evening.

speaking as a virginia beach native if these kind of dudes are plotting against ICE then there is wide runway in public opinion for straight up abolishing the agency under a dem presidency

An American Red Squirrel, also called a Pine Squirrel, peeks out of a log before zipping off to a tree. These squirrels store their food in only a few places - sometimes only one - and are fiercely territorial of these food caches.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand” Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Wow I wonder why

Russia is losing major infrastructure, especially in its energy sector, and can’t even pay the soldiers it sends to die in Ukraine. Putin can’t afford this war anymore. Ending it on Russian terms makes no sense unless the White House is trying to help Russia.

Most accounts on Twitter turn out to be Russian MAGA bots. Here’s why Bluesky has an intellectual diversity problem

Red knot L99 at Bald Hill Beach, South Australia, would have recently returned from the northern hemisphere. It was banded in northern China in May 2024. It's incredible to think about how far these birds travel.

This does track with my, admittedly limited, experience of Ireland in winter. youtu.be/OVFrlkTHdM8?...

The US is turning into Russia

The Trump admin submitted a sworn declaration under oath that Costa Rica had changed its mind and would no longer take Mr. Abrego. Costa Rica has now said publicly that that this is false, that they have not changed their position at all, and that they will still take him.

A teenager. A U.S. citizen. Detained by ICE at a courthouse. This isn’t law and order—this is intimidation. It doesn’t protect our communities; it undermines them.

“Meta shut down internal research into the mental health effects of Facebook after finding causal evidence that its products harmed users’ mental health, according to unredacted filings in a lawsuit by U.S. school districts against Meta and other social media platforms.”

And Trump wonders why Ukraine doesn't want to capitulate just because Putin told him to tell them to.

Are those "MANY GREAT LEGAL SCHOLARS" in the room with you right now, Piggy?

A smart, decent man running against a fool. Should be a no brainer, but it is Alabama so good luck Doug Jones.

Amazing story, state legislator and Turning Points USA leader who crusaded against bogus voter fraud claims pleads guilty to attempted election fraud. azmirror.com/briefs/turni...

Although the scale of this is still to be assessed, this is the inevitable outcome of the monetization of the algorithm. Rage-bait becomes a personal revenue model. Nothing about this should be a surprise.

I just think Trump understands Mamdani is not someone he wants to tangle with. Too smart, too charismatic, too New York, too straightforward, too young. Easier targets elsewhere, like everyone who works for him and most of Congress. (1/2)

23 November 1896 | A Czech Jewish woman, Elsa Kahnová, was born in Prague. She was deported to #Auschwitz from #Theresienstadt ghetto on 6 September 1943. She did not survive.

Now we know what Trump looked like at the most important moment of his life - when he pulled off his first successful grift.

An really important thing a lot of people don't realize about Trump is that he doesn't bully people he doesn't think he can bully.

It's highly unusual for a sitting president of the United States to threaten to murder members of Congress.

I genuinely think @mrnikli.bsky.social may be one of the best business writers in history, and “Brainwash An Executive Today!” is one of the best written and insightful and funny business pieces of all time. A must read. Execs can be really stupid! ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/brainwa...

Who needs enemies when you have friends like Trump?

The “deal” deprives Ukraine of everything it has won by withstanding Russian aggression and defending the borders of Europe. It rewards Russian lawlessness—and makes America complicit in the lawlessness. It’s the end of post WWII American power. www.greatpower.us/p/28-points-...

And then she starts posting Russian propaganda every single day. What a coincidence.

That sounds like quite a dry spell, Mr. President

Rep. Jason Crow's office is seeking a Capitol Police investigation into Trump for what they described as "intimidating, threatening, and concerning" social media posts. It's highly unusual for a member of Congress to request a police investigation into a sitting president of the United States.

So, special election next year for MTG seat. Here's the Democrat already in the race. 40-year military vet, retired as an Army Brigadier General. 5 children, 4 grandchildren. Wife Karla works as a family doctor. Plus, they run their grass-fed cattle farm. www.shawnforgeorgia.com/meet-the-can...

Really not tracking the Ryan Lizza stuff (accidentally saw that gross "cheeks" comment). But just a reminder: We spent much of the election last year distracted with these same people -- it wasn't the best use of our time.

Turns out the media & most of Parliament is as out of touch with reality as Twitter. Dear England.

I never believed in the concept of an “Alpha male” until now.

There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.

A-f-ing-men to this.
