The Senate passed Dick Durbin’s legislation that allows people to sue Twitter and other platforms over non consensual fake images made with artificial intelligence. rollcall.com/2026/01/13/s...

Call your reps, call your senators. Tell them they can shut this authoritarian government down or we'll throw them out of office and get some representatives who, you know, actually represent us.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Claudette Colvin, whose refusal to move seats on a segregated bus helped spark the civil rights movement, dies at 86.

NEW: Far-right Zionist group Betar US will disband following an investigation by NY State Attorney General Letitia James into the group's "violence against and harassment of Muslim, Arab, Palestinian, and Jewish activists" and failure to register as a charity in NY despite soliciting donations.

Sorry your belief in ivermectin and alternative medicine didn't work out for you, Scott Adams. Now you're dead. I guess you shouldn't have called for the end of medical research in the 2010s, research for prostate cancer. You didn't need Trump or last-minute Jesus. You needed science. #ByeBye

In case anybody on Capitol Hill is wondering, the mood right now out here in the hinterlands is for Democrats not to miss votes. Especially since so many Republicans are out that Dems could pretty much stop anything with full attendance. We are paying attention.

ahem Schumer and Jeffries these are your marching orders...shut the fuck down! @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov

Someone inside DHS leaked the names of 4,500 ICE and CBP officers to a nonprofit that tracks ICE. About 80 percent of those name are active. www.rawstory.com/ice-agents-d...

GOP Adds ‘ICE Kills Everyone’ Pillar To 2026 Platform https://theonion.com/gop-adds-ice-kills-everyone-pillar-to-2026-platform/

now up to six resignations in D Minnesota. Metastatic and spreading quickly. Clearly one of 2-3 biggest scandals in DOJ history.

The Clintons are betting that by the time their subpoena is litigated, we will have a Dem majority in the house that will withdraw the subpoena. A pretty good bet.

Hoping the Dems to unify to refuse funding the government as-is. We can’t vote to fund ICE. Call your reps and tell them not to fund the government as-is on 1/30.

Americans do not want to go to war with Venezuela. I just signed onto the War Powers Resolution that would prevent military personnel from being deployed to Venezuela without Congressional approval. Speaker Johnson must bring this up for a vote immediately.

ICE OUT FOR GOOD TRUMP And Vance OUT FOR GOOD Steve Miller OUT FOR GOOD

Thanks Mehdi for the merch idea :) @mehdirhasan.bsky.social

NO. You don’t get to REFUSE a Congressional subpoena because you don’t like the MOTIVATION for its issuance. WE don’t get to CRITICISE & PROSECUTE the REPUBLICANS for refusing those subpoenas & then blithely refuse them when WE get them, fellas. Not how integrity works. apnews.com/article/bill...

The Minnesota shooting case is now metastasizing unlike any i've ever seen. The successive resignations of heads of the crim section at CRD and 3 top career prosecutors in Minn -- who had hung in all this year n/w/stg multiple outrages-- means the Department is in open revolt in DC and the field.

Remember, Scott Adams won't see your posts focusing on his late-career bigotry, but J.K. Rowling might.

Elon Musk tweeted that he’s filing for full custody of his child with Ashley St. Clair after she renounced transphobia. His retaliation and litigation abuse toward the mothers of his children is sick. This isn’t the first time and I doubt it will be the last.

Trump just posted that the "day of reckoning & retribution is coming" in Minnesota.

For 18 months, I had to keep the secret that I didn't just voice The Flying Dutchman in the SpongeBob movie, but I also played him in live-action sequences. The hours it took flew by thanks to superb makeup artists Gage Munster & Marcel Banks who were both so kind AND hilarious. 🤣 Thanks fellas! 🙏

Oh yeah, the Mark Cuban point that Europe did not have private health insurance before adopting nationalized health care is in fact wrong and proven wrong by history.... They started with the problem that the working class could not afford health insurance.....

Whenever we have an event, our highest ticket tier includes a handknit hat made by yours truly as a thank you. Anyways, I made my favorite hat ever today for one of those tickets. I hope they like it :-)

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face. If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

I just enacted congested pricing for the roads around Mara Lago....thank you for your attention to this matter.

YES!!!! BREAKING!! MINNESOTA SUES NOEM OVER WHAT ICE IS DOING IN MINNEAPOLIS!!! THIS JUST IN! Minnesota, Minneapolis, and St. Paul have JUST filed a lawsuit against Noem, Bovino, and others over what's been going on with ICE, including, but not limited to, what happened with Renee Nicole Good.

Breaking: MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Minnesota and Twin Cities sue federal government to stop ICE enforcement surge after fatal shooting in Minneapolis.

JUST IN: Judge Mehta rules that Trump/Russ Vought's termination of environmental grants during the shutdown — targeted solely at states that voted for Kamala Harris — violated the 5th Amendment's Equal Protection clause and orders them restored. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

another person has been shot by an ICE agent while the agent was off duty....

Democrats need to realize ICE isn’t just—or even primarily—a mass deportation force. ICE is also Trump’s most loyal internal security force which will be used to attack regime opponents and try to steal the election. They should defund his authoritarian capabilities.

ICE OUT FOR GOOD!

So last week Marco and other reps were walking back the statement that we would run Venezuela. But now the idiot posted that he is the acting PRESIDENT oF venezuela. How do you walk that back now motherfuckers. YOU CANT. 25th this guy now

I will just note that the TWO Republican members of Congress who have spoken out forcefully against the Trump admin’s criminal investigation of Powell (Tillis & Bacon) have both previously announced their retirements.

theheadlinelab At a White House roundtable, Donald Trump presses a Halliburton executive about why his company left Venezuela. The answer is blunt. They were forced out in 2019. By U.S. sanctions. His sanctions. This is what policy amnesia looks like in real time.

🧵Go to Berlin and you will see squares of metal in the old cobblestone sidewalks in front of residential buildings. Upon each one is a name, when the person was taken from their home, and their fate. Thousands of them. They are called Stolpersteine.

Non-expert thought of the day: Machine learning is excellent. LLMs are very different from machine learning, and they are unethical and untrustworthy shite. This is why "AI" should never be used a catch-all phrase for both technologies.

Warren Warns Fellow Democrats Not To Kowtow To Donors

Retiring GOP Sen. Thom Tillis, who sits on the Senate Banking Committee, is now threatening to block any Trump "nominee for the Fed — including the upcoming Fed Chair vacancy — until [Jerome Powell's] legal matter is fully resolved."

give the nurses on strike in NYC some support and love...

Kudos to the Golden Globe producer who - immediately after a joke about famous people on the Epstein list - cuts to Bill Maher.

keep in mind there are still 46 secret docs missing from Trump's stealing secret docs.....where are they?

ICE agents being called to MN..... Stand down, call in sick, tell them you have COVID As you know their orders are not morally right

Am thinking a lot about this terrible subject prepping for an upcoming @onwithkaraswisher.bsky.social pod in the wake of the heinous situation at Grok & the complicity of Apple and Google and this piece by Elizabeth Weil of @nymag.com is a must read and a gut punch. www.thecut.com/article/sibl...

The totals are in! After donating the equivalent of my Veteran disability benefits for 2025, you all matched $29,015, which makes a grand total of $74,994.71 to the LGBTQ+ and immigrant communities for Giving Tuesday. THANK YOU!!

You know its easier to use text themes if you use flyweight OOP patterns to construct them! #FlutterDev

What ICE is doing is un-American. We protest/film/harass/mock/bother/march against/peacefully interfere with ICE because we love America.
