I’m sure this will be popular. 5 million people are in default right now. The Dept of Ed estimates as many as 10 million by end of next year because of job market.

I don't think free speech on campus ought to mean that a young coddled bigot gets to use their ignorance to casually destroy the career of a knowledgeable trans person on a random Wednesday

blue states should create escrow accounts into which citizens pay their federal taxes but are withheld by the state until the federal government stops acting like its only obligated towards states that support the maga agenda

A disturbing update to this story: Despite the fact that he was about to be released from a US prison after completing a sentence here, when Kelvin Membreño was deported to El Salvador he was sent to CECOT prison and remains there. The family has not heard from him since.

If a coworker said this, you’d mock them endlessly “Careful, Katie, we’re supposed to put cans in the recycling. I know how you feel about reckless disregard of leadership.”

It’s interesting that the administration wants you to know that Bari Weiss is in league with them.

“American presidents don’t have to apologize for being pedophiles any more.” — JD Vance

these “christian nationalists” aren’t afraid enough of hell

I am just a boy, begging my fellow liberals to understand that propaganda is not inherently evil and they should use it at all costs.

FBI was told about Nassar for years ignored the charges and the victims FBI was told about Epstein in 1996 FBI ignored charges and victims 2025 wash rinse repeat

This is critically important. Democrats need to pass it if they retake Congress. Trump will veto it. So pass it again. Campaign on it. Given current polling, corruption of the FBI, and the brutality of ICE and BP, there’s no better time to say, “Federal police are not above the law.”

Meanwhile both Obama and Biden administrations spent 12 years being afraid of doing propaganda. Stupid.

A friend was processing the George Wallace collection at the Alabama state archives. She sent me a copy of a letter to Wallace parents asking him to not “stand in the schoolhouse door” in June 1963. It was from my parents.

gotta put in a full day of work the day before christmas eve. you know everyone's working hard this week trying to grind away. the president rapes kids btw and we have mountains of proof. get back to work though ok! you could get fired.

The problem with idiots is eventually they need smart people to implement their dumb plans and that doesn't go over well when the entire plan hinges on killing all the smart people.

i can't figure out if the cabal of rich tech bro incels who put the stupid liars in charge are mad at them for being so bad at everything, if they're in total denial, or if they're just fully mentally checked out

The institutions suck and I have no attachment to them if they die. Build new, better ones.

And she assumed it would be easy because it was a topic she had an opinion on and so did not need to do any research. This is the epistemic world view of the ignorant, and, apparently OU leadership.

The NY Times headline reads “Vance Refuses to Take Sides in G.O.P. Fight Over Bigotry." This is false. He took a side: that of neo-Nazis and other assorted bigots and nuts. I think he thinks it's strategic. An analysis. www.salon.com/2025/12/23/j...

I’m sure Trump is innocent of this Epstein stuff because he isn’t on video bragging about grabbing women & hasn’t had 27 different women accuse him of sex assault or bragged about going into beauty pageant dressing rooms when they’re naked or talked about how hot his daughter is.

So you’re telling me that when your country welcomes talented people from around the globe, and brings them together in world-class universities, they make discoveries that save lives? Interesting. UM researchers make breakthrough to treat form of leukemia www.detroitnews.com/story/news/l...

The right used to do a thing where they counted how often Obama said “I” in a speech and called him a narcissist. Now they give us this fascist orange shit stain.

New: We obtained thousands of internal chat messages from the ICE team creating viral videos of raids and "EPIC takedowns." A scramble to satisfy the White House and "feed the beast" spawned a new "propaganda" machine, current and former officials told us. "It's a war!" wapo.st/4s6YnC5

I think anyone who is looking to the last 20 years for an example of how the post-trump era will unfold is not understanding that the current moment really has no precedent in america, nor will its aftermath

Now that Bari Weiss pulled a segment telling the truth about Trump's deportations to let Stephen Miller have his say (i.e. spread propaganda), it's a good time to check out our deep dive into Miller's real worldview and agenda, which doesn't pull any punches: newrepublic.com/article/2041...

This antisemitic and homophobic administration will eventually come for Weiss. This is the way of Christian Nationalism. They don't get to some point of white supremacy and then are like, "Ok, we're good now."

We've known that Epstein tried to contact Nasser for a couple of years, but haven't actually seen the letter. From 2023: amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/06/...

In our deep dive into Stephen Miller, we report that Miller praised Coolidge's 1924 restrictions even though an unpublished history of Miller's ancestry authored by his grandmother explicitly talked about how it closed the door on people like Miller's relatives: newrepublic.com/article/2041...

It’s the year 2025 and Americans have to watch a bootlegged international version of a news program because it was censored here in our country to protect a criminal president.

Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

If they had any credibility before it's fully gone now that they're openly doing crisis PR for the president. Still funny that the best they could come up with is "The evidence you're about to see is fake"

Something very funny about de santis praising Coolidge for “immigration.” Coolidge’s immigration policy was that people named de santis shouldn’t be allowed to come here bsky.app/profile/anth...

Anyone who sends people to concentration camps to be tortured should be tried and, if found guilty, hanged like the Nazis they are.

It used to be that the United States would use Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty to transmit truth across the borders of repressive regimes. Now the work of American reporters, having been censored, is being smuggled across the border to reach Americans.

watching the CECOT 60 Minutes segment that CBS suppressed, it’s striking that Weiss specifically called out as unnecessary some of the most rigorous investigative work in the segment, including an explanation of how it was done (by human rights researchers)

You can very clearly see why someone whose job it is to protect war criminals would need this pulled from the airwaves: It’s visible proof the Trump administration is operating concentration camps.

bari weiss saw this and decided that she had to hide it from the american public

Having the semester end on Dec 22 and Grades due Dec 26 is just cruel.

MY LATEST: The “60 Minutes” we have known is dead. The fearless program that many of us grew up with was strangled by corporate titans seeking favor with the Trump White House. I don’t know what is next for the storied franchise, but it will never be the same. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/60-m...

I have to think there are a lot of Boomers very attached to 60 Minutes and its always-reliable continuity. I would expect those people to be reacting to the Bari Weiss censorship episode with confusion and unhappiness, regardless of the politics.

WATCH: Here's the segment CBS News pulled from "60 Minutes" last night

NEW President Clinton’s office is demanding the DOJ release all photos of him from the Epstein files along with any documents that mention him. Statement from his Press Secretary:

In 2025 MAGA taught us that the opposite of DEI isn’t merit, it’s mediocre people running institutions into the ground.
