Lindsey Halligan, one of Trump's personal attorneys, is now in charge of one of the country’s most important prosecution offices. She is a 36 yo loyalist/cultist with no prosecutorial experience, who has largely spent her career handling insurance matters in Florida.

Look, it’s Heroin and Adderall ganging up on Tylenol.

So much for the Homan bribery case. The FBI quietly killed it amid all the pageantry so we wouldn't notice. They never see evidence of wrongdoing when it's real and empirically provable and committed by one of their loyalists. Only the imaginary "crimes" they ascribe to their perceived enemies .

White Trash....

This administration has pushed countless thousands of people out of their livelihoods, stripping them of healthcare coverage and food/housing assistance. There will invariably be a spike in homelessness, which a still-employed Fox News host recommends punishing with extrajudicial murder.

Once and for all: Who is ➡️ they ⬅️ ? And who is ➡️ we ⬅️ ? And Count Miller, who/what is ➡️ you ⬅️ ? Inquiring minds need to know.

Instead of watching TV or live-streaming any - ahem - event, I spent the day cooking my grandma's recipes (and some of my own) to bring to our family Rosh Hashanah dinner tomorrow night. Highly recommend cooking your way through all of this, holiday or not. 💙 Peace out.

Just 2 gun rights advocates sitting behind a wall of bulletproof glass while enjoying a memorial for a gun rights advocate who got murdered by a gun.

It’s really all we should be talking about today.

Minutes before Trump bragged that he "HATES" his opponents, Charlie Kirk's grieving widow said she forgives her husband's killer and called for love for his opponents. Unfathomably grotesque for Trump to deliberately and explicitly contradict her at her own husband's memorial service.

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended. It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.

I have never seen a festival of hate like what is happening in Arizona today Every speaker sounds like they want to genocide more than half of America

I hope that when my time comes, I'll be mourned because people love and miss me and not because the government requires it.

Each year, nearly 5,000 children are diagnosed with brain tumors, which are the leading cause of pediatric cancer-related death. In August, the Trump administration announced it would stop supporting a federally funded network dedicated to researching these deadly cancers.

Be sure you take a moment today to remember Charlie Kirk for exactly who he was.

Not to mention that Johnson actually had words.

Imagine if Richard Nixon had just tweeted out the Watergate scandal rather than putting it on secret tapes. That’s what this is.

Trump canceled an annual government survey on how many Americans struggle to get enough food. The data has been collected every year since mid-'90s, and is widely used by federal, state, local policymakers to make funding decisions for food-aid programs, & to evaluate how well those programs work

This is what we need from elected officials -- a commitment to stand up for their constituents and, just as important, a willingness to tell right-wing trolls to get bent.

ICE is advertising for recruits on college football telecasts. Your tax dollars pay for ICE to lie that they’re going after “the worst of the worst” when they’re actually terrorizing hard-working people who improve our communities. ICE’s signing bonus is blood money.

How could the 95 House Democrats who voted in favor of a National Day of Remembrance named for a certain recently murdered extreme-right activist not understand that there is zero percentage - ever - in giving a bully even a fraction of an inch? How??

This moment is disturbing even in the mundane: I’ve started taking screenshots of historical sources I’m using in research from the national park service, the smithsonian, and the national archives, just in case they get taken down. It’s now a part of my process and takes time I have to plan for.

I am hereby trying one more time to post the text of the GOP resolution signed by 95 Dems. Let's see if this app will now let me. And...nope.

I just tried to post something about the 95 Dems who voted in favor of the resolution to honor a certain activist who was shot a couple of weeks ago, but BlueSky wouldn't let me, citing "internal error." I'm posting this just to check if leaving his name off will make a difference.

If there has been any downside whatsoever for Trump to Kirk's murder, I'd like to know what it is.

Only liars require pledges.

Beyond the Fringe! I had the vinyl record and listened to it incessantly, even though I was too young to understand much of it. Good old days..

"It is late to get organized, but not too late." This article is prescient and beautifully written - and it warned us nearly a decade ago of exactly what is happening in our late-stage boiled frog information ecosystem right now. Well worth your time.

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

From President Lyndon B. Johnson to the Smothers Brothers, who had a popular, bold, and very funny political satire TV show in the late '60s. I'm old enough to remember it. They regularly skewered Johnson (Vietnam War era), and for all his faults, was elegant enough to respond thus.

"Tonight we're all Jimmy Kimmel. With an autocrat, you can't give an inch. If ABC thinks this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive, and clearly they've never read the children's book, "If You Give a Mouse a Kimmel." ~Stephen Colbert

If some Dem yahoo had said what Kilmeade said and these kinds of shootings ensued (even if completely coincidental), Fox News and every other wingnut outlet would be trumpeting it like a 5 alarm fire.

This is the playbook, folks. If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away. Do not be quiet in this moment.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Trey Reed, age 21, found hanging from a tree at Delta State U 9/15/2025. Mississippi cops said "no foul play" before his body was even cold. No official moment of silence or ABC pulling shows or actors posting tributes or corporate statements or mandatory loyalty oaths or policing of responses.

I was sitting at the Truth bar last week sipping a drink by myself, and now so many more have joined the gathering. Welcome @jimmykimmel.com and @karenattiah.bsky.social Now its a party!

Here, ICYMI, is Lawrence O'Donnell's most excellent commentary from last night. Must watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAHL...

Um, so, Epstein files?

This was the monologue that got Jimmy Kimmel fired. via @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

When you've lost both John Woo and Karl Rove...😑

I don't know what to do either. Just want to send love to you all for now.

America has become a full-blown fascist state in under a year. Trump and his thugs now have 3 more years to build out state media. Not by chance that Vance jumped into Kirk's podcast seat the other day. Nexstar is also part of the state media plan and Jimmy Kimmel both revenge and a warning.

Who here remembers this and they’re not the current FBI director? 🙋

Courageous, truth-telling women are burning up my screen today, and I'm so effing here for it. 🔥🙌

Oranges, carrots, grapes – Alejandra, an immigrant farmworker, has harvested all of these through extreme heat and cold. We spoke with her at a legal clinic we held with @ufw.bsky.social last summer about the harsh working conditions farmworkers like her face day-to-day.

I'm thinking (and hear me out) that it could be a clever flex to give the Nobel Prize to DJT for Operation Warp Speed. It did save many lives and slow down the pandemic. This could be an effective stick in the eye, putting the POTUS in a bind and forcing MAGA to acknowledge the benefits of vaccine.

her testimony is so powerful and clear. you should hear it.
