As always thank you Kat for saying the truth

NEW: an a16z-backed startup called Doublespeed promises clients can “orchestrate actions on thousands of social accounts through both bulk content creation and deployment.” Essentially an AI-powered bot service in violation of all major social media platforms www.404media.co/a16z-backed-...

Scrooge beats Tiny Tim. Ghosts visit him. Afterwards, Americans decide that the ghosts said he was innocent and actually Tiny Tim was at fault because one time he hit back.

I can suspend a lot of disbelief but I draw the line at Johnny Depp being redeemable

Remember when conservatives and pundits said trigger warnings were a huge threat to freedom of speech

People constantly did this about the amber heard trial and it drove me insane. As if a widespread culture of misogyny and abuse is some sideshow from ‘real’ politics

I think it’s time to retire this joke format. Not only are the two things arguably related to each other but human beings are allowed to care about more than one thing at once!

Trump told reporters at the White House that the protesters in Los Angeles “are insurrectionists.” That’s false. January 6 was an insurrection, this is a protest. But by using that language, he may be laying the groundwork to invoke the 1807 Insurrection Act.

Twitter/X are both mainly valuable for their intangible impacts on discourse and how it shapes culture and politics. But reading how little the top posters are making reminds me how underreported on YouTube is, considering how much money creators actually make over there

AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 83 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (or video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

There are dudes who woke up one day and were, like, "Hmm...what should my defining character trait be? The funny guy? The guy who's really into cars? The guy who likes to work out a lot? Oh, I know, I'll be the guy who devotes his life to hating Amber Heard."

Just wanted to thank those who joined our overpass action last Sunday, June 1. Andry Hernández Romero was the subject of our banner display for the start of Pride Month. A harrowing TIME article about the CECOT megaprison described a detainee known as "the gay barber." #BringThemBack #PrideMonth

Also undercovered: right wing orgs funded coverage sympathetic to Depp—for a reason

It's the third anniversary of Depp v. Heard. Not here to relitigate it for my readers, who are smart folks and get that it was a farce. But I'm looking back because, in retrospect, it predicted Trump's win. An analysis. www.salon.com/2025/06/02/j...

On the three-year anniversary of the verdict in Depp v. Heard, I wrote about realizing the terrible truth that she was, in fact, the victim—and seeing the DARVO playbook weaponized against endless women online and in the courts ever since. spitfirenews.com/p/what-we-di...

New episode! On @inbedwiththeright.bsky.social, we talked to the great @kattenbarge.bsky.social about the Depp v Heard trial and the spectacle of backlash. Listen here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...

This is just sickening

Andry Romero, a young gay man, was given an asylum appointment by the U.S. Government. When he showed up to the appointment we kidnapped him and sent him to a foreign prison. I asked Secretary Noem to check if he’s alive. Her response was shameful.

The state of Georgia is keeping a deceased Black woman’s corpse hooked up to machines against her family’s wishes because she was 9 weeks pregnant and they cannot let them shut off the machines b/c it violates their anti-abortion laws “ITS TORTURE,” says her family www.11alive.com/article/news...

Carla Hayden, Librarian of Congress fired by Trump *U of Chicago trained professional librarian *Seems nice Todd Blanche, Librarian of Congress hired by Trump *Personal lawyer, not a librarian *Is definitely planning to kill you

Trump kissing MBS’ ass at the Saudi Arabia US I vestment Forum. He’s calling him a great man. A great family. While Elon sits behind MBS and claps. Trump talks about murderers the way he should talk about our allies, promising our country’s support.

Every photo of this man projects “mean dumb asshole” which is exactly what you’re looking for in a Librarian of Congress

Library of Congress staff just showed what resistance looks like. After Trump abruptly fired Dr. Carla Hayden, the respected Librarian of Congress, he tried to install Todd Blanche, his former personal lawyer and current Deputy Attorney General, as acting librarian. Staff weren’t having it.

I asked the ACLU if they had any proof of life for Andry Jose Hernandez Romero and if there had been any contact between Romero & lawyers since 4.24 when he was added to an ongoing lawsuit against the Trump admin. I was only told the following: "We have no way of contacting anyone at CECOT"

She absolutely did not btw

After being driven out of Hollywood and the U.S. by a misogynist hate campaign, I'm so happy for Heard being able to embrace motherhood and create a family on her own terms. www.jezebel.com/amber-heards...

I still see people on the fence about this because the final outcome never reached them It's because of this case that men in the US can sue their victims if they ever come forward. I don't think the wider population realizes what they all lost. Even now people think she shared blame, it's crazy

If there's anyone who deserves more happiness in her life, especially after all of the fuckshit she's had to deal with, it's Amber Heard. (If you hop into my mentions to talk shit about Amber on behalf of Jawny Debt, or simply for your own entertainment, I won't hesitate to curse your ass out.)

AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

It’s not mutual just because you defended yourself. It’s not equal just because you didn’t stay silent. Calling it “mutual violence” is how abusers protect their power.

I wrote this in 2022 www.jezebel.com/johnny-depp-...

Zhouhan Chen, who previously investigated the online activity of Depp v. Heard, told the Guardian he estimates it's more than "80%" of posts. Meaning, this is yet another example of a bought-and-paid-for pile-on. www.jezebel.com/data-expert-...

Imagine getting an asylum appointment from the U.S. government, showing up for your scheduled appointment, and then getting deported to a foreign prison. That's what happened to Andry Romero. He deserves due process.
