from NO KINGS yesterday, in Portland — handed out by a guy in overalls and carrying a pitchfork on which tines was speared a sign, "ASK ME ABOUT GARDENING CLUB". So I did. (Regrets for not taking his photo as well.)

The man who is hawking the Trump Gold Card program specifically for wealthy foreign nationals is complaining about *checks notes* people getting rich selling citizenship to the US.

NBC: Under intl law, hitting civilian infrastructure is prohibited. Why is POTUS threatening war crimes? LEAVITT: POTUS has made it quite clear to the Iranian regime their best move is to make a deal or else N: Which objectives would destroying a desalination plant help? LEAVITT: Haley, go ahead

I honestly find it hilarious that the first American Pope is constantly calling Trump out for being a fucking ghoul.

Stephen Miller allegedly urged Department of Homeland Security agents to “force confrontations” with protesters in Minneapolis in order to win a “PR battle." trib.al/NcbpdiX

Instead of investing our tax dollars into helping Americans get life-saving healthcare, Trump is spending $1 BILLION a day on the Iran war that no one wanted. Hard-working Americans deserve so much better! #FundHealthcareNotWar abcnews.com/Health/1-10-...

There wasn't a recount. The democrat Brian Nathan won by .5058% FIVE votes fewer would have triggered a recount.

Per YouGov Rahm Emanuel is the 78th most popular Democrat, behind everyone from Michael Dukakis to Barney Frank. He is 12 places behind Harry Reid, who died five years ago. To the extent anything's happening here it's *entirely* media-driven. yougov.com/en-us/rating...

"“Give them wisdom in every decision,” Hegseth continued, “endurance for the trial ahead, unbreakable unity, and overwhelming violence of action against those who deserve no mercy.”" Just like Jesus would have done.

The Trump administration is citing white supremacist Alexander Porter Morse in their bid to end birthright citizenship. Morse was a Confederate officer who argued for legalized segregation.

A local candidate who posted “ban trans kids" on social media is running for school board in Anchorage in early April. It's one of many school board elections that are worth your attention next month.

Will this be enough to convince folks that the whole idea of the stock market and modern economy is just made up bullshit? Therefore we aren't shackled to it like some sort of universal force and can change things? Because it seems to be the only thing still falling for these lies.

My interview with Solomon Pakal is up on Patreon! I'm continuing the discussion around decolonizing witchcraft and pagan practices by diving into the incredible work he is doing around Mayan culture and mysticism. These monthly videos are available to supporters at the top two tiers. 1/

Prosecutors are also investigating Gregory Bovino, the outgoing Border Patrol commander who was the face of the immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota and who was seen on video lobbing smoke canisters into crowds in Minneapolis.

"message is always clear: The US is split down the middle in every way. This allows these media figures and the outlets they control to base their election coverage on the (false) concept that conservative policies and ideas are precisely as popular and legitimate as those coming from the left."

What the fuck are we doing here

I hope Vance has the same effect as when he visited Pope Francis.

Right after Russia helps Iran target our troops for strikes, Trump is making a special exception to allow a Russian tanker of oil to bypass the US blockade of Cuba tonight. Putin owns Trump.

Trump will never challenge Russia. Whether it's because he wants Putin to like him or because they have dirt on him it doesn't matter. Trump is a weak, insecure, pathetic, erratic man who is a danger to the world.

It gets worse and worse. www.esquire.com/news-politic...

Are you telling me the chuds who like to talk about "merit" are the ones actually reducing standards so their knuckle-dragging cult members can make the cut?

The American people need answers here. Russia is helping Iran kill Americans and Trump just keeps going out of his way to help Putin. I don't know how at this point it isn't treason in every sense of the word.

"The worst-case scenario is that American automakers effectively give up on producing EVs, and learn to survive as a niche manufacturer for gas-powered vehicles. That could have all kinds of negative spillover effects." ICYMI @citizencohn.bsky.social:

BREAKING: After ProPublica published letters written by children at the Dilley concentration camp, ICE officers raided the dormitories and confiscated the children's letters. I'm suing ICE to get them back. I'll explain it all in 45 minutes on @meidastouch.com here: www.youtube.com/live/H-D8SzR...

The pivot from "I'm just following orders" to "I'm too dumb to understand" is...interesting.

Hey friends! Looking for something to do Saturdays in April? Consider the "Pathways to Ancestral Wisdom" Insights course with Cherry Hill Seminary:

The NYT quotes a young conservative operative without identifying him as such. On the left, the NYT quotes him wondering why anyone would think Trump is different from any other president. And then on the right, is that kid's Substack insisting that Trump is different from any other president.

Hegseth personally intervenes to deny promotions to Black folks and women who were marked as "exemplary" in their reviews. He's turning the US military into his personal White Christian Nationalist Crusader army.

This story is insane. Married an American, arrested at her greencard interview, flown out of state, nearly killed multiple times when her diabetes was ignored and then mistreated. When she finally got out? Found out her credit card had been used illegally. www.daylightsandiego.org/san-diego-wo...

I know I’m a broken record on this but: A handful of law profs are engaging in an effort to convince the Supreme Court to accept a reactionary administration’s effort to redefine American citizenship and render countless children stateless.

One of the things about moving out of your MAGA swamp is your parents calling to tell you about the latest hateful bullshit the neighbors are doing followed by "can you believe that?" Yes. Yes, I can believe that. That's why I didn't come out until after I escaped.

"Hegseth had been pushing Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll to remove the four officers for months, but given their years of exemplary service, Driscoll refused, military officials told the Times. Hegseth finally removed their names himself, likely without the legal authority to do so."

"If DOJ is seeking voter data under the banner of election oversight but planning to use it for immigration enforcement, that could undermine the legal basis for compelling states to turn it over."

Yes.

Not immigrants, drag queens, Muslims, or Mexicans. Two white church going Christians, one a cop, arrested on dozens of counts of raping a child they met at their church. Plymouth, MA Police Officer Samantha Pelrine, 31, & her husband, Daniel Forand, 37, raped a 12-year-old boy from 2019-2025 1/3

He is such a desperate, insecure, broken man. Real historic figures don't need to force themselves onto everything. They are remembered and commemorated because other people want to do so, not because they were forced to. This is pathetic.

Phang: But here’s what really did in Meta and Google: the disclosure of internal documents from these companies, which were presented as evidence during the trial. The jury heard the following—and when you hear this, you’ll understand.

Hugo Holland, who is running for judge, once compared a mentally disabled Black teen to a dog during a death penalty case and told the jury to “get rid of it.” Attorneys later found that Holland had failed to turn over a trove of evidence. With @veritenews.org

I guarantee no one would be asking "Why didn't we bomb children and spark an energy crisis??" This North Korea-style public bootlicking is so fucking gross. I find solace, however, in knowing these clips will be played in history classes 50 years from now showing how awful these people are.

"The U.S. was the only member state to vote against the agreed conclusions, which represent CSW’s priorities and guidelines on gender equality and justice for the world community."

1. Yesterday, the NYT dropped a bombshell: Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) has been aggressively lobbying Trump not to end the fighting and pushing him to launch a ground operation. Why would Trump listen? Follow the money.

146 workers died in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire on this day in 1911. The bosses responsible were never held accountable for the awful working conditions that sparked the blaze. Remember this today as politicians and their corporate backers attack workplace safety.

Trump is desperate for a win *somewhere* so he's going to pressure Ukraine into surrendering. Yet another gift to Russia from its Useful Idiot.

A periodic sign tap that nearly all people in media who claim to be "centrists" are actually conservatives. Self-identifying as moderate is the core ploy of American reactionaries. It was invented by Bill Buckley. Bari Weiss is just the latest practitioner. I traced the full history here:

I don’t know the contents of the new casts’ contracts, but fair bet it has some sort of clause where they cannot “disparage” Rowling in public.
