Nothing like the response to Kirk. Wonder why?

Every time a cashier gives me one, I will demand an old coin.

Another chapter in “How much shit will America eat?” It’s a strange kind of vanity that is at once so gargantuan and relentless but also so cheap, lazy, and stupid.

Why did @cbsnews.com @nbcnews.com @abcnewsbot.bsky.social @cnn.com air that entire piece of meandering crap pack of lies? Why I have gone cold turkey from legacy news. They continue to literally endanger democracy. Barf.

15 years into Obamacare, the GOP health care message is as muddled as ever

You don’t disappear into woodwork in a crisis, and then show up again after folks did the heavy lifting. No, no, no.

Whoa. I remember when I thought “The Onion” was far out and funny…

ICE agent “mistook him for one of the…” Even if true. That means you pepper spray him and baby? Every single time press charges… What brand of justice will halt this mess?

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American. Two options: 1) ICE deliberately targeted him. 2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens. Hard to say which option is scarier.

Today, in the Sunday print NYT, we published an investigative look at Harold Hamm, the 13th child of Oklahoma sharecroppers who started an oil company named Continental, which turned him into a billionaire, powerbroker and friend of Donald J. Trump. You may never have heard of Hamm. But you should

Punk.

Yo.

And they already have our DNA…

Justice Kavanaugh laid out the framework for how racial profiling is permissible by federal agents leading to what has now been coined as the “Kavanaugh Stop,” by professor Anil Kalhan. The full story: lataco.com/kavanaugh-st... By @eltragon.bsky.social

Dems are creeps.

What a bunch of sucks the DNC is.

No more plane flights.

I mean honestly. Are we all asleep? This is insanity.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

There you have it. www.chronicle.com/article/just...

Hmmm…”tactics” versus solidarity www.bbc.com/news/article...

Hmmm

Every decision should be vacated.

As we cheerfully do our holiday shopping…

It’s too late.

It starts with knowing the truth. Don’t allow yourselves to be gaslit into believing this is a real question.

Federal agents shouldn’t be chasing, arresting, or shooting crowd control munitions at journalists or anyone else for one simple act: recording them in public. It’s a First Amendment right, and often the only tool we have to hold powerful agencies accountable.

i think to understand the meaning of the birthright citizenship clause to the framers of the 14th amendment, you have to understand significance of dred scott to the civil war republican party. dred scott wasn't just a bad ruling, it was understood as a rejection of the declaration itself.

Senator Hale, 1851, dropping truth bombs about the Fugitive Slave Act that apply just as well to Trump's efforts to send troops do "mass deportation" against the will of the people (Cong. Globe, 31st Congress, session 2, p. 598)

Ofcourse…

Tonight’s #FridayLimericks watch presidential clemency undermine the law. In Trump’s pardons, one might soon deduce There’s a pattern: condoning abuse. With much more from this guy, Law and order will die— While supporters use every excuse.

I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better. kentuckylantern.com/2025/11/25/t...

Absolutely depressing. I don’t know about the UK context, but I believe many of the us universities folded so quickly because they are governed by boards of billionaires already skeptical of, or hostile to, faculty labor, student activism, and progressive initiatives. Trumps demands were cover.

News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.

Here’s the thing about settling to keep the government grant $ flowing: this administration is actively trying to destroy state capacity to fund research at anything close to its current scale. If they’re successful, the entire model of the research university is dead.

Indigenous actor Elaine Miles of "Northern Exposure" was detained by ICE at a Redmond bus stop. When she showed them her Tribal ID, they told her it was fake.

NEW: Larry Summers wrecked millions of lives & was rewarded with riches & status - teaching him there'd be no consequences to befriending Epstein. Dick Cheney lied America into a war & is now valorized as a hero. America's hidden system of elite impunity is now out in the open for all to see.

Ugh. Wasn’t that that same as last time?????

A Washington resident died of complications from an infection with a bird flu strain never before reported in humans, the state Department of Health said. Read more: https://cnn.it/4o796sL
