Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement. Check out how tiny the crowds were: Philly: 200 DC: "several hundred" Boston: 500 Austin: 1,000 Houston: 2,000

Maria Greeley is a U.S. citizen who was detained by ICE and told her passport “isn’t real” and that she “doesn’t look like” her last name. What do they think an American should look like? This racial profiling happens every day under Trump’s lawless regime. It’s un-American.

Trump voters are dumb.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Wild to me that an authoritarian party that rules America only in the interests of ‘their voters’ find it difficult to understand that half of America is honestly, authenticity, desperately pissed off.

Chicago turning out.

"Whaaaa! Whaaaa! How can I possibly be a Christian when the head of my denomination talks like its namesake?"

The "Party of Law & Order" is surprisingly partial to pardoning and commuting the sentences of convicted criminals who disobey the law and disrupt the order.

Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on. Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights. Block, and move on. This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

All of this is the violent convulsions of white supremacy realizing that power is slipping away forever. This is, in their deeply racist minds, a do or die moment.

Jeffries: "You've got Leavitt, who's sick, she's out of control. I'm not sure if she's just demented, ignorant, a stone cold liar, or all of the above. But the notion that an official WH spokesperson would say that the D Party consists of 'terrorists, violent criminals & undocumented immigrants'..."

This, folks, is what skilled rappers call a bar.

She still isn’t wrong.

This doesn’t seem good.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

Journalists turn in access badges, exit Pentagon rather than agree to new reporting rules apnews.com/article/pent...

This is what happens when your country is run by incompetent knuckleheads.

Secret?

Stunning to me how quickly the press has memory-holed credible reports of Trump working with Bibi to trash any attempt to stop the killing in Gaza when Biden was in office. The press will not save us.

I’m surprised that people are surprised that everyone in @schumer.senate.gov’s address book is a septuagenarian. #MaineIsWinnable

“Whiteness isn’t water. It’s kerosene.” That’s a bar. I’ve always said that whiteness is both a shield and a sword.

@democrats.org will never learn. They simply can’t help wanting to be liked by the GOP and the press.

one of my takeaways from this great piece is that weiss just doesn’t…sound like an intelligent person? or at least, not someone who has thought even a little bit about how and why they think the things that they do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gieT...

Hi Sally. When Weiss published a supposed expose on the death of George Floyd, a veteran criminal justice reporter showed in deep detail that the piece was not just wrong but filled with falsehoods and misrepresentations. Weiss did not retract the piece. What do you think of that?

You may have to wait a while for an answer as Sally Jenkins is still trying to unravel the mystery of “what were Charlie Kirk’s views?”

From deep behind the Antifa front lines in Chicago. The pleasant Autumn day disguises the danger in the Navy Pier. Countless refugees seek mindless, but entertaining, diversions from the war.

The cruelty is the point

Narrator: She will, in fact, vote for the republicans.

Cray-cray.

Inception level trolling here.

This truth is gonna hurt some folks.

No one is covering the GOP's scheme to rig congressional maps for 2026 as closely as Democracy Docket. It is providing gavel to gavel coverage of the ongoing hearing over whether the Texas gerrymander will be in place for the midterms. Support its work by subscribing now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

People need to understand how stacked the deck is for the prosecutor in grand jury presentations. If they know that the James indictment, while still atrocious, is far less legally problematic for her.

Any news organizations not running video of currently calm and normal Portland underneath Trump’s insane rantings of absolute chaos should not be trusted.

The girlfriend of the OG Antifa leader.

Exactly.

everyone who knows the kid who didnt do their homework or who was the kid who didnt do the homework and is pushing bullshit to the teacher has seen this speech pattern before

But he’s too busy to know what the President is saying or doing anytime he is asked.

I’m only three movies into the Harry Potter franchise but I think it’s clear so far that you shouldn’t trust a new professor at Hogwarts.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system. I am not fearful — I am fearless. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Dude is a crank.

new polls website just dropped fiftyplusone.news

Actual fascism.

“Make the proof.” Oof!

you'd think a prominent news outlet like the New York Times might mention that "antifa" isn't an actual organization in a long story about antifa, but nope! and the subhead helps props up a false claim this professor was up to something seedy as something up for debate

The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.
