A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

It’s cool that American Protestantism is just Oops, All Heresies now

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

I have no words for this.

@warriorsworld.bsky.social Sheed done done it again with another pure flame entry into the Bay Area cultural pantheon #sfgiants

New C.D.C. Director Resists Ouster as Other Officials Resign www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!" Social Security - "That's socialism!" Debt free education - "That's socialism!" Universal childcare - "That's socialism!" $1 trillion+ in tax cuts for the wealthy... "That's just how it is."

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

“ICE gets a bigger budget than the Marine Corps” is a simple fact that should be communicated very widely because it clearly expresses how crazy and radical this is

Thank you FIFA for finally answering the question of “what if the team that won the Champions League last month played the team currently in sixth place in the MLS’ Eastern Conference”

Raids in the 310 and 818 today !! Be your brothers keeper !!!!

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

I mean today rules. We got ROB HOG and total meltdowns of a bunch of total hogs.

“I was happy to work with a man I knew was pedophile until he cut my EV credit” is such a hilarious rich person sentiment

Hands off Social Security. Hands off Medicaid. Hands off veteran care. Hands off our kids’ education. Hands off our rights. We’re going to fight like hell to defend our democracy from Donald Trump. #HandsOff

1000%

Schmuck Chumer, please just leave bro.

oh this is a big mystery

We're doing these racists a big favor when we pretend their project is in any way based on actual grievance with modern DEI policy. They just want to promote the belief that no non-white person has ever been worthy of any praise or qualified for any honor or position

You knew Donald Trump and Elon Musk were killing children, but the details will chill your soul. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Huge march in New York today protesting the illegal DOGE cuts

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

I loved MICKEY 17. Loved it. It’s weird, challenging, goofy, silly, and visionary. Ambitious and overstuffed with ideas, but for every one that didn’t work, there’s one that floored me. Gimme a hundred MICKEY 17s. It has more originality and spirit than most movies churned out from studios today.

Oops 😬

Around 35% of SpaceX’s revenue comes directly from the federal govt. Less than 1% of NPR’s budget comes from the federal govt.

😒

The people who voted for Trump because they thought he’d pull the U.S. back from foreign entanglements and overseas adventurism are really among the prime suckers of our era.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

Time to accept that we simply have a mad king. The guy slapping 25% tariffs on Canada's postage while calling for its annexation - and releasing scarce water into the Central Valley to fight already-contained fires in LA - isn't doing a bit or pursuing a secret, rational strategy

This must hit so hard if you’re stupid

At least we have this photo of David Lynch and Billy Wilder.

Joe Biden just defined all the things that are wrong with the oligarchy we are becoming, but he did absolutely nothing to stop it from happening for the past 4 years. If anything he helped it by hiring a head of DOJ who refused to charge large companies with obvious fraud. Very infuriating stuff

Nation Never Needed Pharrell To Show Up In Crazy Hat More Than It Does Right Now theonion.com/nation-...

Republicans on the NC Supreme Court just blocked certification of a Democratic justice's election win. Her GOP opponent is trying to throw out 60,000 ballots cast in November, citing debunked far-right legal theories. This assault on democracy should be a national scandal.

This one boiled my blood

Trump is going to make Ozempic more expensive for Americans because Denmark won’t give him Greenland. (I can’t believe I just typed that sentence out.)

Sitting at Costco eating my $2 lunch while a person at the next table is ranting about higher ed & how professors are super pretentious & highbrow. They also suggested professors are rich. So tempted to tell them.

Oh the populist right-wing authoritarian is interested in territorial expansion you say? Well that’s a new one !

I was really hoping we'd have a woman as president before we had one from South Africa, but here we are.

💯💯💯

We can’t have DEI but Kim Guilfoyle is Ambassador to Greece.

“I’ll stop drinking if you let me run the Pentagon” is maybe the most alcoholic thing anyone has ever said

What’s nice about bluesky is I can scroll, reach where I left off previously, and close the app. Don’t really brain rot scroll here. Anyone else?
