Well said!

Believe it or not, this is a hopeful sign. Most professional-class Republican lawyers have decided that the costs of working for the Trump administration far exceed the benefits. They do not have faith in the longevity of this regime.

The Times editorial board was fine with urging readers not to vote for Mamdani and support Cuomo on the grounds that Cuomo was a ruthless operator who got things done. In a parallel universe, the Mamdani coverage would be that he is weak and feckless, unable to assert leadership. He can't win.

Netanyahu did this with Iraq! So much for “fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice … can’t get fooled again” bsky.app/profile/greg...

Weird because they got rid of all the dei hires right? It couldn’t be that anti dei politics was simply white identity politics intended to preserve racial and gender hierarchy regardless of merit bsky.app/profile/swin...

Interviewed Ryan Coogler 13 years ago. He was *so young* and I was just blown away by his presence and vision and charisma. Still can remember it so well. www.ms.now/all-in/watch...

The way our nation turned its back on those who helped us at great risk to themselves and their families is an unforgivable national shame. We owed Mohammad Nazeer Paktyawal. Instead, ICE arrested him in front of his children and he died in their custody. We failed him and his family.

Good map reading. We may do capitals of the states next.

We’ve been having the democracy v white supremacy argument in America for 400 years (including a civil war) and it blows my mind that people who are paid to prognosticate about our country still don’t understand that framework or the baseline psychology that fuels it.

A national reckoning on the way police targets Black communities is met with this and again the people who swear they’re pushing back against the white supremacy of the Trump administration are totally okay with this

Just absolutely unable to functions as grown-ups, let alone Cabinet officials who can reassure the public that they have a plan.

+ the 74 million Americans who thought it would great to turn the world’s wealthiest country over to them to stick it to the liberals and hasten the apocalypse.

Can the mayor get a restraining order against Michael Powell of the Atlantic? Because this is starting to feel like an unhealthy obsession

Less: War, ICE, Trump, tech overlords More: Nights in the Library Thanks @bklynlibrary.bsky.social for a night that reminds us what’s great about human beings in Brooklyn.

Remember...Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line. When we get upset, we stay home, they go vote. And 90+% of Republicans support the king, so don't get fooled by our echo chambers.

I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran). The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

Sheriffs across the country make it a point to publish booking photos of every person they arrest and they run them in the local paper.

This is, to put it mildly, a double standard. This guy was part of a government that encouraged online social media figures to engage in routine harassment of government employees to the point that many were fired or went into hiding. Some of it was done by Elon Musk, this guy's boss.

Haitian woman, 31, dies alone at Pittsburgh bus stop days after ICE released her to the streets far from home to perish. Rest in power, Daphy Michel: migrantinsider.com/p/the-loneso...

Minnesotans deserve restitution from ICE's terror campaign. The ICE surge cost Minneapolis $200 million in just one month. That’s before overtime, charter flights, and detention contracts. Taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to subsidize their own trauma.

I've never quite known how to say it, but just as Donald Trump is the physical embodiment of every negative American stereotype, Nigel Farage is the physical embodiment of every negative British stereotype, if that makes sense.

Honestly zero reason to ever set foot in Texas.

Part of the problem is that politicians think that Americans are just really stupid.... Another part of the problem is that politicians may not be wrong there

As a millenial, I feel younger than I am just because of how many traditional milestones have been robbed from folks in my age group but also older than I am because of all of the cultural and historic knowledge that didn't make it down to Gen-Z and Gen-Alpha.

right wing propaganda depends on everyone pretending they're journalism

We spoke to Black women who started the Target boycott & who sustained it for a yr+. They'll likely never go back. Teacher Laverne Mickens put it like this: “[Black women] will say if & when it’s over. And I can tell you right now: That will be the 15th of never ever.” 19thnews.org/2026/03/targ...

There’s nothing more obnoxious than when people celebrate being an asshole or “just saying what everyone’s thinking” Yeah, dude, most people have edgy thoughts, and learn to keep them inside. It’s called control. What you’re doing is like being really proud of constantly shitting yourself.

If dems don’t break up the maga media conglomerates as soon as they can they have no sense of self preservation bsky.app/profile/atru...

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

ICYMI — one of Elon’s DOGE guys Justin Fox saying a documentary is “DEI” if it’s about how historical events impact led Black civil rights because it’s “not for the betterment of humankind”

Someone in NYC should do interviews with middle-school kids who take the subway to and from school every day, to see if they have any advice for Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy who can't seem to go a single day without pissing himself in fear over them.

I've been unemployed for over a year and live very close to a border crossing, yet there is no amount of money they could offer that would make me apply to be an ICE or CBP agent. I would sooner go hungry

it took just over a year to get from "I'll lower costs on day one" to "I'm raising prices and it's good, actually"

Maybe not their most relevant malfunction, but still pretty sickening that they have to imagine someone "rural" (e.g. white) for social welfare spending to sound sympathetic to them

very fun how so much of this stuff reduces down to “i wanted to be able to say slurs”

I feel like people talk a lot about fascism, but in practice they don't really understand how it works. fascism's whole appeal is exactly this; it packages traditional bigotries as innovative and edgy. 1

Bush II set the bar very high but between this, USAID, the mass deportation atrocities and a conservative projection of the result of the anti-vax movement I think we can pretty definitively say Trump is the worst President now

Turning the world over to madmen. That is what is happening. Madmen.

wait. wait. everyone hold on. i've solved it

Yeah so these things cost $2.5 million each. That's $50 million of your tax dollars just . . . flying away.
