In light of Elmo begging to go to the pedo’s HQ island, here’s a story where he tried to give a flight attendant a horse in exchange for sex. Company had to pay out 250k for her silence

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Good news, he’s 25% through. Bad news, he’s only 25% through. bsky.app/profile/trum...

What in the Gestapo is going on in Grand Rapids? Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.

Latin American countries, especially those with leftist leaders, need a NATO like defense agreement against the US at this point.

We can easily say that what happened to Kirk is a horrible tragedy and also that what happened to him exactly the world he advocated for day-to-day. Hell, he was in the process of advancing that same violent filled world when he was shot.

The rich are protected by the law, but not bound to it. The poor are bound to the law, but not protected by it.

this is media newspeak for "the bill robs the working class and enriches billionaires" - they're not allowed to just come out and say those facts, so it has to be more polite

This country has endless money for prisons and concentration camps, but never for healthcare, education, and overall welfare of its citizens

As good as this is, I think we missed the massive opportunity of having a rizzed up mayor named Paper Love Prince

In national elections, liberals like me ask leftists to be coalition partners — hold their noses and vote for a candidate they don't love to beat someone truly terrible. In New York, the shoe is on the other foot. And we should be clear that we're willing to do what we ask of our partners.

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

The Senate bill aims to effectively end all civil rights lawsuits against the federal government except by entities rich enough to potentially pay million/billions in fees. I am not making this up.

The head of the department of homeland security announced that she planned to use military force to take over a democratically elected government in the state of California and we are arguing about whether a California Senator properly identified himself at the door.

Why did they decide to break up during pride month…?

We need to take away Texas’ claim that it’s the freest state because this is authoritarian plain and simple

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

The Democratic Party kicked out @davidhogg.bsky.social for going after the gerontocracy but they can’t do anything about death coming for them

Hello, is this a bad week to get into trading stocks?

Imagine holding elected officials accountable. What a dream world that must be

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I'm running for Congress.

She’s got my support solely because she wants to actually fight. She’s more than capable of learning the ropes of Congress and legislating once elected

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Twenty-one members of the United State DOGE Service have resigned, they said in an anonymous letter, citing DOGE's ongoing work dramatically reshaping the federal government.

Democrats inability to politicize anything is enraging. Many people claimed that egg prices were a big factor in the election and they’re now nearly double what they were at election day. Politicize it dammit

The Times spoke to people being trapped inside a Panama hotel after deportation from the US and the individual stories of horror are almost too much to bear www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w...

Nice!

The DOGE website is reportedly hosted on non-government servers, not secured against database attacks and can be easily defaced, 404 reports www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

Wow! You mean destroying the federal government doesn’t help fix inflation?

@cyberalien.dev Hello, just wanted to share that I had the need to use Iconify on demand components in a Laravel project and keep the API locally. So I wrote a package that does that similar to the Node JS API. github.com/abetwothree/...

Just a reminder that D.E.I. stands for diversity, equity and inclusion. Blaming everything on DEI is extremely racist and sexist. The underlying message is only straight white men have the capability to do things properly.

lmfao

A silver lining I’m seeing is friends and family who never post about politics on Facebook are posting about the funding freeze and ICE raids. Their policies are so horrible, it drags non-political people into the political world. Means they can’t get away with their policies w/out strong push back

A U.S. airliner collided with a Blackhawk helicopter just days after Trump dismantled a key aviation safety advisory committee, leaving it without members previously responsible for examining airline and airport safety issues.
