Lol. Yeah, sure, whatever you say old man.

Feeling reassured I actually have ADHD when I have to repeatedly go back in the (incredibly interesting) Trevor Noah ADHD episode I've been waiting to listen to all day 😬

Democratic leadership didn’t want to stick their necks out for him. The GOP didn’t want him even referred to as a “Maryland man.” Sen. Chris Van Hollen, his congressional representative fought for him. And we should never forget any of this. apnews.com/article/abre...

🔥 @ossoff.senate.gov on the ACA subsidies extension vote: “This is life or death.” (@SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn both opposed it - but as Ossoff reminds us they were quick to vote to let themselves put millions of taxpayer dollars in their own pockets recently🤔)

found my new work email signoff

Democrats would be crazy not to make this comment super-famous tomorrow when the Senate debates health care. Republicans don’t want you to be cared for as a patient when you’re sick. They think of you as a “consumer”—and tough luck if you don’t have the money for the care you need.

That's $8,400 more per year. Millions of people can't afford to pay anything like this. And many of them will die as a result. All because Republicans refuse to extend the subsidies to make sure they can afford their health insurance

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Long but very worthy local news report that describes a five families style meeting of various hate groups and influencers

Just what airports were missing: play areas turned pandemic laboratories

ARKANSAS FARMER🧑‍🌾 : “Trump’s $12 billion bailout is a far cry from what we need. Just the loss in corn this year was over $16 billion. The loss in soybeans around $11 billion. Cotton & rice even bigger losses. $12 billion won’t make up for this 1 year.” (H/T @factpostnews.bsky.social )

WOW. So this is obviously a huge violation of this man's rights, and it illustrates a few things we're seeing broadly: - DHS officers are ignoring peoples' IDs and instead requiring screening through their own systems - Confirms @404media.co's reports of use of DHS's facial recognition app.

We have a lot of questions about the WB-Netflix-Paramount (?) deal so we got on the phone with @warren.senate.gov! To start, is this deal even legal????

Thank you Sean Duffy this is exactly what we were missing to make airports more pleasant and enjoyable 😍

Just stopping in to remind everyone that not all women are physically able to breastfeed, even if they desperately want to. They should not be shamed by men for that. (Fuck these assholes)

Anyone who has participated in or attended a naturalization ceremony knows how meaningful and joyous these ceremonies tend to be. The cruelty of this is heartbreaking and enraging.

My mom’s naturalization was a family event - dressed up, photos & lunch to celebrate. Days later my grandma-in-law gave her apple pie with a card: “Now you’re as American as apple pie.” If you’re not Native, you’re from immigrants. Punishing law-abiding immigrants is just white supremacy.

This is fascinating. Not only because I learned how people learn to read, but about the tragic failures of our education system that are hurting so many Americans. Explains why so many people prefer a YouTube video to a news article.

The White House claims she has been charged with a violent crime, while at the same time a DHS lawyer said she is “not a danger to society.”

"If this is an honest reflection of how he thinks, he's a disturbed dude... If you're thirsting over the idea that you can cane somebody because they're here illegally, then you need to go get help." @samsteindc.bsky.social and @timmiller.bsky.social on Phil Mickelson's rant against illegals.

just an utter joke of a court.

Trump may have accidentally pardoned the pipe bomb guy?

who decided to call it Secret Santa when Nondisclosure Claus was right there

Costco Wholesale has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, asking the Court of International Trade to consider all tariffs collected under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act unlawful.

🔥POWERFUL AD ABOUT ICE AGENTS: “What will you say when your kids ask you about your day? A mask can’t hide you from your neighbors, your family, God… you can walk away, but the shame will follow you home.”

they will die mad that they've already lost because, crucially and irrevocably, they've already lost

why bother with dystopian fiction when the united states is already doing worse in real life

“I got this cerebro where my heart used to be”

Trump’s Dept. of Transportation has: • Scrapped possible limits on train/bus driver hours to keep them from falling asleep • Delayed a rule to help prevent 9/11-style cockpit takeovers • Proposed exempting school bus child-restraint systems from crash-protection rules

My favorite piece of content today.

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based. Here’s an “influencer from Texas”

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

An really important thing a lot of people don't realize about Trump is that he doesn't bully people he doesn't think he can bully.

You ever just sit down and realize that the rise of 21st century fascism is capital's answer to climate change?

MUPPET KNIVES OUT

they just fucking stood there

A local TV station in New Orleans has posted a “know your rights” explainer in Spanish as ICE is set to descend upon us www.wwltv.com/article/news...

As the FBI’s deputy director, Bongino receives some of the country’s most sensitive secrets, including the President’s Daily Brief. His ascent to that position without passing a standard bureau background check is unprecedented, insiders say. By @williamturton.bsky.social @chrisbing.bsky.social

Donald Trump could have just kept his mouth shut about Jamal Khashoggi. But to smear a dead journalist, while sitting with the person accused of orchestrating his murder is just vile. Every time this administration hits rock bottom, a trap door seems to open. Cretin behavior.

Oh they don’t like the whistles? Hey everyone, they don’t like the whistles. If you use them it makes the armed goons sad.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

If the president can just raise taxes and spend money without Congressional approval, the constitution is null and void.
