If this isn't the most corrupt act in American history, I don't know what is.

OpenAI Announces Construction Of New Data Center On Top Of Sick Child

MSM, some quick notes: 1. It’s not a settlement (the case was dismissed). 3. It’s not a ballroom (it’s a bunker). 3. It’s not a library (Trump said it will be a hotel). It matters that you get it right.

Every GOP primary story is like “syphilis loses to pancreatic cancer”

A government of shallow, glib sociopaths striving to get an "Attaboy" from other shallow, glib sociopaths.

I’m not sure why this isn’t being mentioned more, but: IRS policy for 50 years has been that the sitting president & VP get audited every year, in an effort to reassure the public they’re not corruptly abusing the office to enrich themselves.

Anyone else feeling the rage of John Brown, the peace of MLK Jr. and the quiet unshakeable determination to care for others of Mr. Rogers/Ms Rachel? Multicultural pluralism and a just and fair society is inevitable, because we will make it so.

The attorney general in the next administration:

Any President that sues his own government, while in office, should immediately be impeached

Rep. @brotherjones.bsky.social in Montgomery: “We’re here united to take on this new confederacy, 60 years after the Selma March… because we know their intent is to dismantle everything gained during the civil rights movement.”

This is why right will win in the end; no matter the obstacles or setbacks, good people will not be forced into silently accepting the wrongs perpetrated.

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

@indivisiblehocomd.bsky.social we doing this?

Maryland’s diversity is our strength, and our state is better because of Marylanders of every background, faith, culture, and lived experience. Hate and bigotry have no place here. I stand with Del. Wu and Maryland’s AANHPI community.

@lincolnproject.us hey it’s your cousin, you know, Marvin Wilson? Know that new sound you are looking for? Well listen to THIS (All you need to add is “this message approved by the Lincoln Project”)

Democrats should ensure that voters hear this so much it haunts their dreams this fall.

The Roberts Court, the Trump White House, and the national GOP are acting like this is their one big shot. Either they secure the lasting end of US Constitutional democracy, or they’re in very serious trouble from the backlash. And they’ve already gone so far that there’s no other possibility.

Damnit not you too

A lot has happened, but not much has changed.

Happy Mother’s Day to people who believe motherhood should be a choice and not a punishment.

This amazing image really captures the Tennessee fight and it's all over the internet. I am reposting it to encourage people to credit photographer Nicole Hester and the Tennessean.

Jesus. Did that sergeant at arms walk there directly from the Pettus Bridge? The hair, the whole look, everything. Make the photo B&W, and you wouldn't know if it was 2026 or 1965. And the reasons are the same. And the fight's the same. Confederacy and Jim Crow lost before. They'll lose again.

Man, that sounds terrible. Killed with impunity by agents of the state for just being on the street and protesting? Hard to see how regimes like that can continue to claim a popular mandate.

1. Empire 2. Last Jedi I *like* parts of the rest of them, but these are the only ones with even a shred of gravitas.

Just makin' it clear for your asses. Erasing the voices of black and brown people is not "agree to disagree" territory.

John Roberts has done more practical damage to African Americans in this country than David Duke.

@elfreth.house.gov @vanhollen.senate.gov @alsobrooks.senate.gov Voting rights *amendment* time.

“Use AI to brainstorm but not to write.” “Use AI to help you outline but not to write.” These are commonly proposed as “ethical” ways for undergrad students to use AI, but I’m sorry, brainstorming & outlining are just as integral to writing as the actual construction of sentences.

In 1994, a man crashed his small plane into the White House. Clinton did not build a ballroom because of it. In fact he barely mentioned it. And he definitely did not say that no one can criticize him anymore.

This is what I think of when I see those 3D printed houses on YouTube...

Trump said he is considering a financial bailout for the UAE, an autocratic state experiencing an economic downturn due to the war in Iran. If the Trump administration does rescue the UAE, it will be assisting a country that has partnered extensively with the Trump Organization and the Trump family.

Well, it was built for space travel, so anywhere between zero and one

I don't know too much about history, but when the Archbishop of Canterbury urges Anglicans to join with the Pope, something really weird is going on...

If you sexually assaulted someone, you should not be serving in Congress—[or as President]. Period.

'the pope is an American because the Vatican is out to get me' is terrific because it's both a thing an insane person would think and also probably true.

Trump has apparently just posted a video of a woman being murdered on his social media account. I am not watching it and you shouldn’t either. You should, however, call your reps and demand impeachment.

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

This is so well done. 👌

to all who celebrate...

If Dem leaders had been calling for impeachment and filing articles of impeachment and demanding to know why their GOP colleagues refuse to join them in impeaching and removing him—as they should have this entire term—the public would be better prepared for the urgency and necessity of it right now.

Even former Representative Jason (Blake Bortles Party, Jacksonville) figured it out. The rest of Congress and the Cabinet should embarrassed.

Brutal.

He backed down and extended the "deadline" two weeks. This is good, but it's also terrorism. He is terrorizing the whole world worse than ever before by purposely using vague threats that insinuate nuclear warfare. He must be removed from office for the threat alone.

Personally I think when a world leader announces “Tune in tonight at 8pm Eastern to watch the world end” like it’s the fucking season premiere of Roseanne we should have a different leader the next day.
