the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

If you could slash turnout to pre-Trump levels Democrats would probably win every national election in a blowout. That's an uncomfortable fact for various reasons but important to recognize

BECOME UNGOVERNABLE

“Dear Senator Dipshit - You know who isn’t in the Epstein Files? George Soros.

Here's hoping Punxsutawney Phil predicts ICE is all gone in 6 weeks.

Heartbreaking.

In a world of Melania movies, be a cat bongo. #PsakiBriefing

I just saw Trump's YMCA dance in Detroit today on #lastword with Lawrence O'Donnell. Our country allows this man to have the nuclear codes.

the democrats are right we should focus on kitchen table issues. for example there is a guy at my kitchen table who wants to shoot me in the face with a gun

I keep coming back to this

This is a good analogy for the US's descent into authoritarianism.

It's darkly funny watching them essentially argue that Iranians have more right to protest than Americans

One reason I favor impeaching Noem is because it's a political process for a political problem. No, this will not stop ICE enforcement action but YES it would be an opportunity to educate the public about DHS & perhaps begin to lay a foundation for dismantling it.

I fear this is why Dems will continue to lose. We have a toxic purity test that labels as traitor any Dem who reaches out to the middle, nor can welcome new folks who were formerly in the middle/right. We seem to forget that we lost, and we'll lose again, if we don't adjust our thinking/action.

Mark Kelly is a patriot. Pete Hegseth is a piece of shit. Pass it on.

Off-topic, but who is the guy with the mustache partying with Trump and Epstein in the clip we keep seeing? Is he still alive? He looks like . . . someone who would be partying with Epstein and Trump. #maddow

Paging @radiofreetom.bsky.social

Who’s booking the Venezuela Comedy Festival?

Insanity: Sources close to the White House told the Washington Post Trump lost interest in backing Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado to lead the country because she accepted her Nobel Peace Prize rather than demanding it be given to Trump, which was viewed as an “ultimate sin.”

So what do you think Denmark and Europe’s response is when Trump sends military in to take over Greenland? What scenarios are we looking at here?

The only way it's about a drug is that the U.S. is addicted to oil.

We fucking warned ya! 🤦‍♂️

A major use-case for AI is reality destabilization.

this is how a cosplay mob boss answers he has ZERO clue how ANY of this is going to work the venezuelans living in the US that are cheering right now...are unfortunately going to be feeling 100X worse in a few months time

I am totally against everything the Trump administration does and stands for, but I don't think it is helpful to tell anyone who is a former Republican or who supported a war over 20 years ago that they should STFU (even if they have made a whole turnaround).

This week, every Senator will have the opportunity to vote for or against the use of military force against Venezuela. I am voting AGAINST any war with Venezuela. Congress must rein in this corrupt and dangerous President IMMEDIATELY.

Tennis fans on Insta are asking the United Cup organizers if American players should no longer get to use their flags next to their names a la Russia/Belarus, since American has now also invaded a country for no reason. Fair question and extremely embarrassing to the U.S.!

Remember when Republicans got suspiciously upset about Democrats reminding the troops of their responsibility to not follow illegal orders? Hmmm.

Hey, if Maduro can get to his off-shore funds, he can probably write Trump a check "for the ballroom" and get pardoned!

Its really hard to explain to your average person how massively evil and destructive every stupid thing Trump is doing really is. Its so much worse than people are willing to admit.

The new Axis: China, Russia and the USA

Mark Warner with a great statement on Venezuela and Trump's violation of the rule of law.

Trump got woken up from his morning nap to do this Venezuelan press conference. That's my charitable take.

2026 to 2025: Here, hold my beer.

people offended by $600 shoes are going to be in for a surprise when trump eventually reshores US manufacturing

And please, PLEASE let us not forget that time in 2023 when Karen Smith was elected President of the school board in Bucks County, Pa and swore her oath on a stack of banned books. The most gangsta oath ever! Just brilliant. www.edweek.org/leadership/t...

May 2026 surprise you in the kindest ways. On we go, friends and kind strangers.

Fixed it.

I love Anderson and Andy but I wish they would ignore the abomination that the Washington Monument is tonight #CNNNYE

Happy New Year, humans. This year we take the fight to them.

About POTUS. Truth.

Happy Festivus Primitive man needed an explanation for natural phenomena that scared the shit out of him. Lightning, thunder, etc. so he uses what he knows and elevates humans into Gods to whom he assigns responsibilities. The rest is history.
