“Wait until after the election” becomes “we just won, relax” becomes “if you criticize them you’re just helping the GOP” which then goes back to “wait until after the election.” Every time.

I don't think it can be overstated that they are hiring ideologically motivated agents en masse who view doing this as a good thing and they won't stop until they are forced to

we said all along that they wanted Gawker dead not because we embarrassed a pro wrestler but because the Epstein story is one Gawker was covering a decade before most other people caught up & was just one of many stories exposing powerful people and their misdeeds

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Looking at the list of 19 new CBS News commentators, the median number of times they appear in the searchable Epstein database is 2 and the mean is 100

BARI WEISS: Well, time to hire another new correspondent for CBS News. (Starts flipping through a huge tome titled “The Big Book of Pedophiles and Their Contact Information”)

Top 2 priorities should be solar on every roof and bidets on every toilet.

tbh every time I see Little Saint James I hear the beach boys singing it

I think it's important to keep in mind that (1) all of these people are rich and (2) sex work is legal and regulated in some nations. If this were about sex, any one of those people could have booked a lovely vacation in Amsterdam and quietly enjoyed themselves.

I keep thinking again, in light of the latest Epstein files dump, about how MeToo “went too far.”

remember when the panama papers came out and we found out every rich person on earth was committing tax fraud and then nothing happened

In case you’re finding yourself hopelessly out of your depth (like me) on today’s big revelation

Now watching. Join me, won’t you? youtu.be/0zjwPGh4Zw0?...

I believe it is possible for us not to be ruled by a cabal of psychopathic bloodthirsty pedophiles

it continues to be hilarious that that QAnon and Pizzagate believers constructed entire code languages that the secret pedophile cabal use to communicate and then every actual Epstein email is just: Dear Jeffrey, I love the girls you got for me, very nubile. Can't wait to see you at RapeFest 2012!

This seems……bad?

The billions to DHS have built the for-profit panopticon surveillance state they were unable to fully push through after 9/11 because people fought back. It took 25 years but they have it now. This cannot be reformed. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/t...

Memo to owners/residents of corner buildings: you have to shovel the sidewalk on the side, too. Not just the front.

If they were, like, 10 percent smoother with this shit they could probably accomplish most of their goals. But that would be Gay, so this is what we get

the arrest of journalists in minneapolis, including don lemon, is more evidence that the only move the administration knows how to make is to use force, and does not know how to respond when that force is met with defiance and indifference.

Me every morning in this fucking country

Imagine where we'd be if everyone involved in stealing the 2000 election was exiled to a labor camp, and everyone who rolled over for it became a hermit.

"This is the fundamental paradox of Trumpism: it is a governing philosophy built entirely on symbols, confronting a world that runs on policy." www.gelliottmorris.com/p/americans-...

You go to war with the martyrs you have. This is now a pro-Don Lemon propaganda account and he is to be considered an unstoppable ubermensch until such time he is once again a free moron. May death come swiftly to his enemies.

feds have arrested jamael lundy alongside journalists georgia fort and don lemon for the protest at a st. paul church led by an ICE agent lundy is currently running for state senate district 65 in minnesota. his wife is anika bowie, a st. paul city councilmember www.jlundyforsd65.com

These are all Black people. The regime is betting that you wont care Jamael & Trahern the way you care about Alex & Renée

Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.

one significant problem we have is a political culture -- at least in the center-left -- which is adverse, both for cynical and principled reasons, to a political culture on the left which demands anything other than a periodic vote and autopay donations.

one reason everyone loves mamdani is his videos showing him interacting with the mechanisms of civic responsibility, depicting him as an efficient guardian of the public. we, like, never see this out of almost any senator or house rep

It’s easy to forget since he’s still a high public official but Homan straight up took $50,000 in cash from undercover agents on camera and then nothing happened

I love LCD Soundsystem

I'm tired of biting my tongue. Fuck Obama, he could do so many things to help right now and instead he drops a fucking podcast link and peaces out. Disgraceful.

Agree with every word of this. www.liberalcurrents.com/dont-buy-a-g...

nice argument, unfortunately I have already depicted myself as a squared-up Ilhan Omar and you as a collapsing sewer ogre

Toughest congressperson in America rears back for a punch, and refuses to cut short townhall, after asshole sprays her with something.

IDK why right-wingers keep bringing up Obama's record deportations, it just shows that if you wanted to have a conservative immigration policy without partisan militias occupying cities and gunning people down in the streets you could do it and a lot of americans would be fine with it

The last few years have seen the largest wave of immigration in American history. All those images we carry in our heads about people arriving at Ellis Island — we just surpassed that. Crime went down. Real wages went up. This is a fake problem. Enough is enough.

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.

What will end ICE’s terroristic regime for good? Recognizing and rejecting its core white nationalism that has been a part of the American fabric for over 400 years. Some of us have never had the privilege to look away and ignore it. Now none of us do. My column: www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/26/o...

"simply about getting ICE back to obeying the law" Come on. They will never obey the law. And the law itself allows them to abuse & murder with impunity via qualified immunity. ICE OUT OF OUR CITIES is the minimum short term demand. Defund and abolish ICE is the only moral long term course.

What if we sold it to them as a celebratory cruise with strippers and coke

Emphasizing that ICE is deliberately arresting people who are in the asylum process precisely because they are easy pickings; after all, they're complying with the government! Amazingly, it's likely legal; but cruel, unjust, and very counterproductive by discouraging compliance!

“It’s going horrendously. I don’t mean there have been a few minor speed bumps; I mean the bus is pancaked, Wile E. Coyote–style, against the side of the mountain.“ www.theringer.com/2026/01/21/m...

DHS this is your communications director speaking. I am advising you today to please keep posting about how everyone hates you.

median dem elite: 83 years old, fondly recalls calling cops on vietnam protestors in college. likes to remind people that israel is besieged on all sides by “the arabs.” median gop elite: 23 years old, got job because the veep liked their 4chan posts, 3rd son of food processing plant oligarch

I wasn't sure what to expect from a group of Democratic state AGs, but I definitely was not expecting a long monologue about Ruby Ridge and the Boston Massacre www.theverge.com/policy/86588...

Renee Good's murder made a whole lotta white people realize it could happen to them.

I am quite tired of everything being so relentlessly stupid all the time

making me genuinely feel insane that there is a secret police that has been arresting people regardless of their citizenship status, has killed several people in their custody and has already held Democratic politicians and some Democrats are considering giving them more money
