TENNESSEE, What the FLOCK?

Mainstream TV news has shifted from “inform the public” to “don’t offend power.” The worst part is the tone: everything is delivered like a calm weather report while the country is on fire. These past anchors understood that journalism is supposed to apply pressure. Not host a brunch panel.

The indictment of @splcenter.org is not about justice. It’s an attack on free speech and a blatant attempt to silence organizations fighting to protect our rights. But intimidation won’t work. We will not be silenced. #StandWithSPLC

Meet the Squid Galaxy! Messier 77, located 45 million light-years away, glows in this new Webb Telescope image. Those "tentacles" are actually vast filaments of hydrogen gas stretching into intergalactic space. A stunning view of a barred spiral in the constellation Cetus! ✨ #Space #Astronomy 1/4

The golden age of corruption.

It's still shocking to me how little coverage and how easy it has been for Republicans to return us to pre-1960s minority representation. And ultimately this has been what "Make America Great Again" has been all about.

It’s becoming more and more evident that Republicans only want a democracy if only Republicans are allowed to vote. And if they can’t have that, they don’t want a government where the voters get to choose their leaders.

Question: Why would the Super Bowl ever come to a Jim Crow state that intentionally strips representation from Black people? cc: NFL

This Is ALL The Supremely Corrupt Court Does,Anymore.......

He’s a war criminal… he should be arrested if he ever leaves the US.

. I’d like to know why Congress votes on pay raises for themselves And not the American people that they work for. .

FBI discovers secret ANTI Message on the Fort Myers Beach, dozens of AGENTS, are pulled from (sanitizing) Epstein Files

Keep your eye on the Epstein Files and Epstein survivors' Rep. Massie. 8647 out of our White House and into prison.

The supreme court betrayed Black voters, they betrayed America, and they betrayed our democracy.” - Barack Obama

Dance party on the streets of DC. And the signs are amazing

Would someone please explain to me how a judge orders The Epstein Files released, the order is ignored, and there are ZERO consequences… Is the ‘rule of law’ officially dead?!

Thousands in downtown Tucson AZ today walk out of work and school...

Israel 'intercepted', near Crete, a peaceful flotilla taking food to the starving people of Gaza and detained 175 activists. To be clear, they were abducted in international waters. It was piracy and a flagrant violation of international law. Under Netanyahu, Israel is a rogue, terrorist state.

TRUMP is making careful subtle improvements to NATO

THE SUPREMES - BLEACH THE VOTE GUTTING VOTER RIGHTS

Firing squads for the poor. Sealed files for the powerful. That is the DOJ in 2026, and they're not hiding it anymore

BURGUM: Understand -- there are times in North Dakota when the wind does not blow and the sun doesn't shine KING: Of course. That's where batteries come in

David Allan Coe, the singer-songwriter who wrote the blue-collar anthem "Take This Job and Shove It,'' has died.

Oh, look what I saw on the beach!

The loudmouth who threatened to destroy an entire civilization feels threatened by pictures of seashells.

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

America has a GUN PROBLEM not a book problem.........

My old satire website got its ads blacklisted for saying Melania backed Hillary after the Access Hollywood tapes came out. They’re fragile fuckers who can’t take a joke.

GOP in a nutshell... #Iran #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

It is up to us now. “... But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.”

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES 😡

Merry Mirthday

When we say 'fuck corporate comics' that really extends to all corporate creativity. Video games. Movies. Toys. Anything that thrives heavily on the humans they then turn around and neglect. The reason I hate DC and Marvel is you got a hundred Roger Sweets you can point to.

The *unredacted* Epstein files along with the *unredacted* Mueller Report You want my vote - you make this happen

Her name is Dr. Hadiyah-Nichole Green.

goddamn i love old library books so much this is so beautiful i might cry

Hochul: "I’m working with the Legislature to change New York’s redistricting process so we can fight back against Washington’s attempts to rig our democracy." This is the way

Ain’t it murder????

This will sound very nerdy, but when I was a kid, I revered the Supreme Court. If they could rule unanimously against segregation in 1954—when the two other branches of government would *never* have been brave enough—I thought they're the lone voice of good. That is all trashed now. They're garbage.

Ever since my dog died, my neighbor has made a point of letting me visit with his goldendoodle in the mornings during their walks. It is pure joy. Man, America may be insane but there are pockets of goodness everywhere all the time.

Here’s the thing. If both racial and partisan gerrymandering is perfectly legal, then you won’t live in a democracy. You live in a country where politicians pick their voters not the other way around. It’s pretty much that simple.
