Trump’s “ceasefire”

The power of the people is stronger than the people in power. #NoKings

red sky at night, sailors delight. red sky in the morning, release the Epstein files.

Hark, Speaker Mike Johnson! Looking at all the many, many pics of the enormous, joyous “No Kings” rallies throughout the United States today, I am struck by what lovely weather your Lord and Savior provided. Apparently, God is a fan of, as you claimed, "America-hating Antifa terrorists." Glory!

One last post (for the moment!): Why the costumes? Authoritarians grab power with fear. They can’t STAND mockery. It weakens their hold. That’s why.

J. D. VANCE: We need to end DEI. MONKEY’S PAW: (raises one finger)

This man needs to resign.

Move, I'll Do It: An Autobiography

These are the faces of men who think racism, rape, and gas chambers are punchlines. The fact that these are actual GOP officials, not trolls in a reply section, says everything about the rot inside their movement.

They are terrified of the No Kings rallies and doing everything they can to discredit them. If you're on the fence about going, just think of how much it'll piss off these assholes.

I am Spartafrog!

Coming soon to Crash Course Native American History: Lily Gladstone! Before she was an Oscar nominee for her role in Killers of the Flower Moon, Lily hosted Crash Course Film Production. We asked Lily to come back and guest host our episode about Native women, which comes out tomorrow!

Amazing how the internet has gone from "Don't trust Wikipedia, anyone can edit that" to "Only trust Wikipedia, because anyone (not just billionaires) can edit that"

Russia, if you are listening…

President Miller

JB Pritzker has also been emphatically placing Trump's mental decline squarely on the agenda. On our pod, he adds a new element: People around Trump are using his decline to manipulate him, so they're less likely to intervene. More Dems should say this. 1/ newrepublic.com/article/2016...

You actually don’t have to hand it to Donald Trump. You don’t have to give him credit for anything. He’s a horrible human being who has never known a day of suffering in his life. Nor does he care an ounce about the suffering of anybody else. Hope that helps.

With SCOTUS set to legalize conversion therapy, I think it's important for states to get around this decision by implementing new legislation applying private rights of action to practitioners of conversion therapy by their victims with large damages and long statutes of limitations.

7. But I haven’t talked about how those malicious and unaccountable forces can pull his strings. Well, this is how. And Stephen Miller is doing it in plain sight.

I think about what Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford said about her assault by him, that it was his and his buddies laughter that she couldn’t get out of her head. What is happening right now is what rape culture looks like as government.

Under the Desk News issued a video about the connection between real estate management companies and these "immigration" raids (The Chicago raid wasn't about immigration. Something far more sinister drove it.). I decided to look up what's happening with propery management companies. 🧵 ...

1846: lawyer James Collins says that if anyone sees a Chicago police officer trying to arrest a suspected fugitive slave, it was okay to attack the officer. They had no authority to make those arrests, and therefore should be considered kidnappers. (Officer Rhines was a drunken terror to refugees).

Trump just said the shutdown will cause disruptions to Social Security services - but Social Security funding isn't impacted by a shutdown, and the staff who run it are "necessarily implied" & continue to work. If Social Security stops, it's because Trump illegally stopped it - to try to blame Dems

I didn’t know this was happening. That’s a problem. But it is! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Reminder that Miller once asked an admiral “When a boat full of migrants is in int’l waters, they aren’t protected by the U.S. Constitution, right?” When admiral said that’s technically true, but int’l law still applied, Miller replied: “why can’t we use a Predator drone to obliterate that boat?”

“Oh, but it’s just Trump being Trump!” No. This isn’t the campaign trail. He is the president. There’s no more room for “take him seriously but not literally.” Just admit it. “The president should be removed from office because he is plainly insane.” Go ahead. You can say it. Everyone knows.

I want a 13th Amendment lawsuit challenging prison slavery, espech in immigration detention I know youre thinkin 'the Constitution's ban on slavery explicitly exempts prison labor' but it's actually slightly narrower, exempting "punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted"

Please, if you have the privilege of not being an obvious and immediate target for state violence... Call them fascists, loudly, ESPECIALLY right now. Call yourself an antifascist, loudly, ESPECIALLY right now. We all need to be Spartacus on this one.

The below tweet constitutes the entirety of the response by PBS News to my raising serious factual and ethical issues with their sycophantic reporting. Take a look at each point in my thread that he ignores. Hopefully will be a good moment for public debate.

Presidents don't use war rhetoric against their own nation. Authoritarians do.

If Democrats don't make this the biggest story in the country for the next several days - and either force Republicans to denounce it or not, what are we even doing here? Every voter should know about this. (Imagine what would happen if, say, Mother Jones wrote this.) www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/b...

October 18 is coming. Do you know where your local #NoKings is? It’s so easy to check at nokings.org.

Sinclair and Nexstar say they won't air Kimmel? Guess what? We have a LOT of ways to push back, and they're all below in one incredible toolkit. For example, I just emailed Nexstar, left a comment on Sinclair's main page, and called two affiliate stations [1/3

Hi, can you explain to me what you mean by "leftist sympathies"?

The narrative needs to be that Trump is afraid to meet with democrats

Spotted on The Mall this morning 💀

Today is a great day to release the Epstein files.

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

... Grok's tutoring team began looking for people with "expertise in porn," if anyone needs a side hustle.

Also I wouldn’t be shocked if everyone in Trump’s orbit gobbles up shares in Tylenol’s manufacturer Kenvue when the price plummets and then in a few weeks they announce it’s safe to take Tylenol again. Or any number of scams. It’s just one after another.
