"In growing numbers, [people are] flying to the Midwest to find a place to live. In the past couple of years, the region has become a popular place to relocate; three of the country’s five fastest-growing metro areas are there."

"No president can decide to withdraw from NATO without Senate approval." —Marco Rubio in 2023 "It's the president's decision if we stay in NATO." —Marco Rubio in 2026

Shortly after Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed Florida’s version of the SAVE America Act into law, pro-voting groups moved swiftly to challenge the severe new voting restrictions, asking a federal court to block the state from requiring voters to prove their citizenship status.

In a significant retreat for Mike Johnson and House Republicans, GOP leaders have reached a deal to end the DHS shutdown

The way sitting politicians can say this stuff about Muslims while facing zero consequences is an indication of just how entrenched Islamophobia still is in our institutions and culture.

Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

Ossoff: "You're seeing what I'm seeing, right? The president posting about the Obamas like a Klansman."

Hey man. You work at a newspaper. Have some self respect and try to write at least one sentence that doesn’t feel like sandpaper on my eyeballs.

I don't know anything about curling, but I am truly watching the Olympic curling session.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. "What the fuck are we doing?"

“The global publishing platform Substack is generating revenue from newsletters that promote virulent Nazi ideology, white supremacy and antisemitism, a Guardian investigation has found…” www.theguardian.com/media/2026/f...

The "young intern" at the White House who has been retweeting juvenile, racist, and otherwise embarrassing material from Donald Trump's account for at least 11 years was born on June 14, 1946 at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, New York, NY. He sometimes goes by the name John Barron.

“I was confused as to why the victim was on his side, because that is not standard practice when a victim has been shot. Checking for a pulse and administering CPR is standard practice. Instead of doing either of those things, the ICE agents appeared to be counting his bullet wounds.”

People are saying this because it doesn't matter whether someone is a good person or a bad person, there is no justification for police or ICE to execute them. We want people to stop being tried in the court of public opinion for being murdered

If you want proof that Trump is going to try to rig the elections, here it is: In a letter to Gov. Tim Walz Saturday, Bondi claimed that Walz could “restore the rule of law” by complying with a list of demands, including giving the Department of Justice (DOJ) the state’s voter registration records.

I am okay. Thank you for all the well wishes. We are in scary times. Please stay safe and do not let these people silence you. Onwards.

I remain absolutely furious that all this shit in Minneapolis started because a barely-literate homeschooled mormon made a video trying to run up in daycare centers trying to find people of Somalian descent doing fraud despite the ringleader (a white woman) being in jail since March. Demonic.

BREAKING: Minnesota, Minneapolis, and St. Paul lawyers escalate their request for an immediate TRO to temporarily halt Operation Metro Surge following today's ICE killing of Alex Pretti — noting three shootings by ICE in the past three weeks, after 11 months of no officer-involved shootings in Mpls.

Text of the video posted by Mac Randolph “Never wanted to share this video but his speech is very on point.”

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Very good that TMZ is running this headline on its top story rn: www.tmz.com/2026/01/24/n...

And another declaration from a medical doctor who was on scene and attempted to treat the man who was shot. Doc: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I said this last time but their real position is “if you disagree with us we can kill you.”

So my sister has the same name of the winter storm that is occurring in the South. Winter Storm Fern is a bish & so is my sis 😆😆

The """"reporter"""" Vance is talking to here served in Trump I until CNN listened to his old radio show.

For years, we have been lectured on the importance of major news outlets — about how their integrity prevents our democracy from dying in darkness. Yet Donald Trump just stood on a well-lit global stage and declared his intention to abuse the criminal justice system to destroy electoral democracy.

"Like many other blue states, Minnesota pays more to the federal government than it takes in. But why should the state continue to subsidize a government bent on destroying it? What if it just…didn’t?" A big question from @snipy.bsky.social in @atrupar.com's PN: www.publicnotice.co/p/minnesota-...

This needs to be all over every tech and news publication NOW. TikTok under the Oracle and Ellison is now a tool of the fascist Republican Party to target immigrants, transgender people, and other groups.

This is a 16-year old girl who was carrying documentation and was pulled over with her documented friend, also 16. This is what they did to both.

Hey friends, it's -15 degrees outside! In temps like this, exposed or improperly insulated skin can get frostbitten in as little as 10 minutes. Here's how you care for it if it happens. First, you need to identify what level of frostbite you have!

Gotta say it's mindblowing to me that the Brown shooter is still at large and they don't even seem to have identified who they're looking for.

The people who wrote this about Charlie Kirk were fired and threatened with violence

Crashed out so hard about THAT needle-drop in #HeatedRivalry episode 4 that I wrote an entire article about it. www.slashfilm.com/2050452/heat...

"Bluesky is an echo chamber." "Bluesky doesn't have enough reach" "Liberals must return to X to challenge the far right" I'm not a tech bro or a journalist. Your priorities are not my priorities. Stop telling me I need to do anything other than chat about comics & telly with people who seem nice.

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

I'll never be offended by the lack of respect the industry shows to us. We shouldn't seek validation or approval for anything. Sinners is a winner, full stop. prospect.org/2025/12/11/s...
