Notice a trend? This is the U.S. that the Dept. of Labor and Trump envision. AI-slop propaganda from the @dol.gov paints a picture of white nationalist U.S. labor forces, completely ignoring *real* hardworking people of every race, ethnicity, nationality, and gender, that make our country run. 🧵

Inflation is so bad these days that taking a $50,000 cash bribe can't even get you indicted. SAD!! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

“The target repeatedly brought up Homan, saying he was collecting bribes in exchange for future government contracts, the two sources told Reuters.”

EXCLUSIVE: Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion. Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

Trump posts a deranged message to Pam Bondi pressuring her to prosecute his political enemies after a U.S. attorney quit because he refused to fabricate charges: “We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility.”

The FBI used hidden cameras to record Tom Homan taking a $50,000 bribe (in cold, hard cash) last year from undercover agents posing as business executives who Homan promised government contracts in a new Trump administration. The Trump DOJ has now shut down the probe. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

Someone asked if I was ready for the fall, and it actually took me a moment to realize that they meant autumn, not the complete collapse of democracy.

Netanyahu: ‘These So-Called Genocide Experts Have Probably Never Committed A Genocide In Their Lives’

“…The two sources familiar with the internal deliberations say that multiple ABC execs knew Kimmel had not actually said anything over the line. But it didn’t matter. The government was angry, and wanted another liberal scalp.”

They are literally canceling culture

Ed Milliband on Elon Musk on LBC, "Just because you're a billionaire doesn't give you the right to tell us how to run our country" "This guy is a publicity seeking narcissist, who is inciting violence on our streets" "As the Americans would say: butt out of our politics"

ABC: “What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech.” Trump: “We'll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. Maybe they'll have to go after you.”

Beatrix von Storch, deputy leader of Germany’s far-right Alternative for Germany party, held talks at the White House this week, two people familiar with the matter told POLITICO.

at the center of the efforts to destroy civil society in russia, hungary, georgia and elsewhere is the stigmatization, harassment, & criminalization of NGOs. that's what this is about, a full-on assault on democratic debate & freedoms. this is not hyperbole. it's right here.

How British TV is prepping for Trump's visit: "More than 100 of Donald Trump’s inaccurate statements are to be dissected by Channel 4 to coincide with his state visit, in what it described as 'the longest uninterrupted reel of untruths, falsehoods and distortions ever broadcast on television.'"

Well said Ed

Not the smartest people

Given all that’s happening right now this is actually good news

Seems like a far better case for the UK to prosecute Musk for inciting large scale political violence than to go after musicians for waving flags and activists for holding up signs supporting non violent Palestinian rights groups

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday. As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

"Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? Let's see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face." — Donald Trump, October 31, 2024 ( ht: @luiszanger.bsky.social )

idk if you've seen this south korean editorial that ran a few days ago. google translate version scorched my eyebrows www.hani.co.kr/arti/opinion...

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

It’s the Sydney Sweeney of the abyss (remember her?)

This is Musk actively inciting political violence.

Shocking! Shocking! Always the ones you most expect.

Chris Wright is genuinely a con man selling climate denial to the world in order to enrich himself and his gas industry friends. This should be a much bigger story.

Jacobin: "Charlie Kirk has never received a warm welcome in the pages of this magazine. It doesn’t matter now. The assassination of Kirk is a tragedy. Morally, it is unjustifiable. Politically, it is cause for serious alarm. A larger spiral into political violence wd be a catastrophe for the Left."

Perfectly normal way for us to talk about the internal functioning legal system of an actually democratic country 😬
