Finally, a pro-Trump message I can get behind. But please don't share this widely. Donald would hate that. youtu.be/Afetnw70S04?...

The blood of 50+ people, including children, in Texas is fully on the hands of Elon Musk and Donald Trump, and we should never let them forget it. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/05/u...

This is truly disturbing. If AI is now outputting its own music, how long will it be before most, or all, of creative content is developed algorithmically? We need to oppose this now if we value art at all. www.wired.com/story/from-s...

And this is what happens when your country is run by a bunch of ignorant idiots. bigthink.com/starts-with-...

This is a great article about TACO Trump's malignant narcissism and how that mental illness drives everything he does, specifically his recent unprovoked and illegal attack on Iran. It's an insightful look at our most cognitively deranged president. www.salon.com/2025/06/22/w...

Great. So now, thanks to the TACO-in-Chief, we can all start looking over our shoulders for the terrorist attacks that are sure to come as reprisals for bombing Iran (for which we are at fault). And what, exactly, was the point?

Go, Canada! Shoe the rest of the world how this loathsome felon deserves to be treated!

What a shock. A Democratic, Hispanic senator roughed up by TACO Trump's Gestapo for daring to question Kristi "Puppy Killer" Noem. Just imagine the Reich-wing outrage of those RepubliKKKans who childishly heckled Biden during his SOTU speech (MTG) were treated this way.Not a good look, brown shirts.

The authoritarian regime advances. This is one small step away from a loyalty oath in which government employees will have to swear fealty not to the country, not to the Constitution, but to TACO Trump himself. Democracy is doomed. www.newsweek.com/trump-admini...

Here's a suggestion: When someone bans a book, go right out, get a copy, and read it to find out what they want to hide from you. getpocket.com/explore/item...

This report of terrifying and deserves to be much more widely circulated as RepubliKKKans become more adept at successfully blocking the votes of POC and others suspected of voting for Democrats. They must be stopped, and elections returned to the people! hartmannreport.com/p/trump-lost...

The recent elimination from the Armed Forces of honorable, decent service people who happen to be trans proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Trump administration has no interest in "meritocracy," only in purging non-white, non-heteronormative people from society. This is not America.

Bobby "BrainWorm" Kennedy is now set to investigate the insidious plot to do... something... by adding toxic chemicals to jet fuel, which is then released into the atmosphere. Just one more idiotic conspiracy theory spread by this moron. What's next? Flat earth? www.politifact.com/factchecks/2...

Not surprisingly, the Trump DOJ just quietly lifted a desegregation order in LA, most likely a harbinger of more far-ranging actions to come in order to "Make America White Again". Can "Whites Only" bathrooms and water fountains be far behind? apnews.com/article/scho...

Don't know how may know this, but Public Square (www.publicsq.com) is a site that promotes MAGA businesses. Just put in your zip code and you can find the businesses to avoid in a moment! I found my insurance agent on there, so it's time to move my insurance elsewhere to a non-Nazi company.

So the Secretary of Homeland Security can't even keep her own purse secure. Perfect. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/u...

Here's my question: When Trump posts hateful, aggressive, intolerant messages like this in the guise of celebrating a Christian holiday, where are all the "good Christians" denouncing him for it? It sure seems to me that there aren't any, and that tells me all I need to know about religion today.

The Fascist Trump administration takes another page from the Nazi playbook, this time banning books on solely ideological grounds. If they can do this to the Nimitz Library, they can do the same thing to the library in your town. The Nazification of America continues. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/u...

Why is there no mechanism under the law to prosecute government officials who repeatedly and deliberately lie to the American people? Everything Leavitt says here is a lie, unsupported by even the flimsiest evidence. Why is she allowed to get away with it? Why isn't she held to a higher standard?

Oh my god. Karoline Leavitt just had a full blown meltdown of lies during her press conference and accuses Abrego Garcia of “human trafficking” despite zero evidence.

This pretty much sums up the MAGAts, the White Supremacist RepubliKKKan Party, and the despicably vile Christian Nationalists.

We need to stop calling CECOT a prison and talk about what it truly is: an extra-judicial concentration camp in which people are imprisoned and abused without the benefit of due process or representation. This is not about law, it's about fascism. encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/a...

Another despicable example of America's continuing Nazification. A 19-year-old here legally with no criminal record or gang affiliation abducted and sent to a foreign concentration camp by ICE. Be afraid, America, be very afraid, and make sure this story is told. www.newsweek.com/merwil-gutie...

Another example of Mump's effort to Make America White Again. What's next? Overturning the Civil Rights Act of 1964? Is this really the America any but the most diseased, deranged, and despised among us want to live in? www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Given the explosion of needless cruelty in Texas recently, this is particularly disturbing, especially since none of the Gestapo agents in Fuhrer Abbott's administration will explain why it was necessary. Just change "trans people" to "Jews" to see where this is heading www.kut.org/politics/202...

Who wants to bet that the fist person Trump names as a Kennedy Center honoree is himself? www.nytimes.com/2025/03/15/a...

Chuck Schumer will go down in history as the Neville Chamberlain of the 21st century, aided and abetted by John Fetterman playing the part of Charles Lindbergh.

What Musk stated by doing to his customers, he's now doing to the entire country. Thanks a lot, "genius." philkoopman.substack.com/p/people-are...

My biggest problem with RFK Jr is that I'm more qualified than him to be the head of the HHS. I have a Master's Degree, have never been a drug addict, and have seen every single episode of ER, St. Elsewhere, and Chicago Med. Right there, I know more about medicine than he does. We're all doomed.

Notice that Trump and his Nazi staff never tell us exactly what Waste, Fraud, and Abuse they've found. They never produce records or documents or anything else to back up thier findings. They're clearly just making it up as they go along and expect us all to fall for it. Fascists.

AGAIN, KINDLY, GO FUCK YOURSELF. YOU HAVE ZERO COMMON SENSE. WE ARE A NATION — NOT A BUSINESS— BUT YOU’RE BANKRUPTING JUST LIKE EVERYTHING YOU’VE TOUCHED.

It seems to me that those hypothetical questions about "If you had the opportunity to assassinate Hitler in 1933 or '34, would you?" aren't so hypothetical anymore.

This is exactly how I feel right now.

I know so many, many people who need to see this.

No article has captured my recent feelings better than this one. Absolutely. On. Point. → This weeks MUST READ “Living your life to impress other men by hating women is one of the most embarrassing things I can imagine. Looking up to any of these men for how to live your life is even sadder.”

I don't know what to say. I'm deeply honored, because I've been soooooo supportive of the RepubliKKKan Fascist Party. Does anyone really fall for this crap? Are MAGAts really this stupid? I have to assume that the answers to the above questions is a resounding "Yes."

For anyone who's still not clear on the way Trickle-Down Economics works, this is as good an explanation as I've ever seen.

Just saw Eggers' Nosferatu: Pretentious, self-consciously "artsy," awkward dialog, poor performances (especially from Lily-Rose Depp), weak cinematography, and no emotional build to the climax. Orlock looks like a diseased, rotting Borat, which is not a good look. See on streaming if you must. ⭐

This is a fascinating essay that strips away the myths and lays bare the facts about Elon Musk, and it's not pretty. If you admired, or even ignored Elon up until this point, read this and find out why you shouldn't. Congrats to Seth for an excellent, and well-researched, piece about this sleazeball

Abbott never intended to "eliminate rape." He only said that to shut up his opponents who raised a valid concern regarding his inhumane abortion ban. Following up on that would mean doing something to benefit his constituents, which won't ever happen. www.texasstandard.org/stories/slav...

Elon isn't just "on the side of fascists and Neo-Nazis," he's a proud, card-carrying member of both groups himself. It's not a surprise that someone who was raised with privilege in Apartheid South Africa would turn out to be so morally repellent.

I know this has been discussed previously, but if you haven't read this incredibly prescient novel by Sinclair Lewis, get a copy today. In it, Lewis tells the story of America's election of a fascist president and the incredible turmoil that follows. It's more relevant now than when it was written.

Wait. Ted Cruz has friends?

This would be laughable of it wasn't so pathetic. What kind of immature, posturing, low self-esteem, delusional dick weasel says this kind of thing? He needs to be laughed out of the country immediately.

I'd support a Constitutional amendment that charges each member of Congress $2500/day, withholds paychecks for them and their staffers, and freezes their health insurance and all of their perks for every day the government is shut down. This would never happen again! www.nytimes.com/2024/12/19/u...
