Republican Timeline: “There's no honorable way to kill, no gentle way to destroy. There is nothing good in war” - Lincoln “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall” - Reagan “Open the fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah” - Trump (on Easter)

No real problem with ordinary folks asking about the 25th, but every time a congressman asks for the cabinet to remove a president you should read that as them abdicating their own duty to pursue impeachment through congress

"But he started it." "No, he's finishing it." "Because he started it." ... ...

If you’re going to rage-tweet a war, at least learn the difference between “reign” and “rain.” 🤡

gambling should be broadly legal but you should have to place all bets in person, it shouldn’t even be possible over the phone. if you want to bet on missile strikes, you should have to look another person in the face and say it out loud while a line of people behind you gets audibly angry at you

"Where did I go right?!"

Go see The Drama and that's all I'm going to say; you shouldn't even read this review even though I've tried to avoid spoilers. Just know that it's probably the best movie I've seen so far this year. cinetarium.blogspot.com/2026/04/zend...

Romero's most underrated by a country mile (though Im also a fan of Diary of the Dead. I tell you there are a dozen of us, a dozen!)

1. A day after Gov. Little signed Idaho's extreme bathroom ban with 5 years in prison, demonstrators were arrested in Idaho for staging a sit-in. This comes at the same time that a transgender woman deliberately violated Kansas ban. Resistance is spreading. Subscribe to support our journalism.

No justice could deny that Trump’s EO violates the 1952 Act of Congress conferring citizenship on exactly the same children born in the US whose citizenship the EO tries to erase. A 9-0 decision so holding would leave Congress free to try Trump’s move if it was as racist as he is.

Turns out covering up for pedophiles isn't a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

As an American, there are always disappointments to register and arguments to engage; amid the chaos of our battered, monied attempt at self-governance, dissent is constant. But this feeling of being utterly ashamed of America and embarrassed to the core by its president is new, raw and unnerving.

Boom.

Pam Bondi still has to testify, under oath, in front of the Oversight Committee regarding the Epstein Files. This does not get her out of that bipartisan, lawful subpoena. We will see her soon.

A reminder that last week, Pam Bondi accidentally released a Jack Smith memo revealing Trump’s motive for stealing and illegally retaining classified documents.

Ryan: Well, this is what happens when you have a five time draft dodger who spends most of his time on the golf course at Mar-a-Lago, instead of being commander-in-chief

If you are a part of a local community effort, mutual aid, community garden, food pantry and/or community defense reach out to your local chapter. If you know of a place that can host events for activist groups then reach out to your chapter generalstrikeus.com/chapters

Trump is dying.

(Me looking at the internet today ala Chris Mannix in The Hateful Eight stepping into Minnie's Haberdashery for the first time) "Oh. It's a joke."

Just so you understand, this is as if you prepared for argument in front of a panel that included Cookie Monster, and Cookie Monster asked you a question about cookies, and you had not thought about cookies in advance.

In the last 24 hours 1. Judge skeptical about Hegseth's press crap 2. Judge lets DOGE depositions back online 3. Judge blocks Trump defunding NPR/PBS 4. Judge blocks Trump attack on ESA 5. Judge blocks Trump's ballroom

This will fail. Tell everyone you know that this is desperate shit from a desperate man. Our duty is to vote and get everyone we know out to vote no matter what he does.

I just wrote a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social letter: Demand New Jersey Divest state funds from Palantir. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/c029...

You remind me of someone I... met in the marketplace

Farm animals....

For years, Democrats have been seen as like Charlie Brown going for the ball to kick only getting thwarted by that darn Lucy again and again... what if Stockbrokers are really Charlie Brown here?

Post reporters called the White House. Their phones showed 'Epstein Island.'
 Someone messed with Google's widely cited databases of business listings.

RIP.

Yesterday was the largest protest across multiple states in American history. Who will give it the proper coverage? (Outside @maddow.bsky.social of course who does great showing the various small and large protests)

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

ai feature implementation strategy is essentially “how annoying can we make the ui” so people accidently hit ai features so these companies can brag about how “highly used” ai features are internally

Magnificent No Kings protest sign in Ellsworth, Maine. 10/10.

i think you should support trans women on the basis that discrimination against us hurts us. when things are done to hurt us we feel it. we feel pain. we are real people. we want to be treated fairly right now, not in the future, but now, because it hurts now.

The Woodlands, Texas, which is one of the most Republican Counties in the state. This is outside the Woodlands Mall. Crowd was double what it was in October 25. #NOKINGS #TRUMP

Holy New York.

As a historian, you might appreciate this one somebody sent me from LA.

Bruce Springsteen: This past winter, federal troops brought death and terror to the streets of Minneapolis. Well, they picked the wrong city.

I'd like to buy the world a Whopper

New Jersey just joined nine other states—California, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maryland, Maine, New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington—in banning local participation in ICE’s 287(g) program. It’s the fourth state to do so this year. boltsmag.org/new-jer...

Important scoop here from @adamfederman.bsky.social. According to FBI documents, the federal govt doesn’t actually believe antifa is a threat to national security inthesetimes.com/article/prai...
