LOL: Nope, we know AOC is not making a Nazi salute—"because if she started doing it you'd all vote for her." 🖐️🎤

This is far from the most important issue here, but the Ontario govt was under no obligation to "seek...permission to use and edit" any recording of Ronald Reagan that is in the U.S. National Archives/Reagan Library, as is the case here. And the Reagan Foundation has *no* relevant role here.

Olha is a professional violinist. But at 22, instead of the stage, she went to the front line. She survived an injury, a coma, lost an eye - and returned to the army. 📹 DW

By way of thanking Donald for not escalating with Tomahawks, I just killed a bunch of children at a Kharkiv kindergarten.

Would anyone ever do this to a house they plan to vacate in three years? I'd be worried.

Donald Trump and GOP’s America.

“Professing love for Hitler is more than anti-Semitic—it’s antihuman,” George Packer argues. The Young Republicans’ texts “degrade all of us”:

I ❤️ my hometown. Well done…

“California will start selling low-cost insulin in January, becoming the first state in the nation to bypass Big Pharma with its own supply of the expensive diabetes drug and marking a notable win in Gov. Gavin Newsom’s push to rein in health care costs with state-branded drugs.”

“It’s infuriating that longtermists keep telling these lies to trick people into thinking their view is more reasonable than it is. In truth, longtermism is an extremely radical view most morally sane people will vociferously reject if they understand what it’s really about.”

New article on three lies that longtermists spread about their ideology. These are: (1) That they care about avoiding human extinction. (2) That they care about the long-term future. And (3) that "future people matter." I explain why these are lies below!! Like, share, and subscribe for more. :-)

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child. She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck. This is not about immigration enforcement. It's about terrorizing Americans.

The hush money payoff to Stormy Daniels cost more than house Leticia James bought for her grand niece.

They're like a teenager who wants to run away from home and imagines that looks like continuing to live in Mom's basement rent free only Mom isn't hassling them anymore, man.

This is a very general problem with all the Trump admin "let's bring back the 19th century!" plans: you can't do it. The 19th century in 2025 just looks like your country falling apart.

Thoughts and prayers to Cosplay Cop Kristi who had to brave the dogs, farmer’s markets, capybaras, and marathon runners of Portland this week.

This headline 🤣🤣🤣

If we were a serious country, nonsense like this would end it immediately. But then, if we were a serious country, <gestures at everything> would end it immediately.

Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived.

🇪🇺🚫 EU governments have agreed to limit the travel of Russian diplomats within the bloc, in response to a surge in sabotage attempts that intelligence agencies say are often led by spies operating under diplomatic cover, - FT

This is exactly what the right wants— our silence. They want us afraid and to stop speaking up, to check out, to shut up about politics. We can’t give them that. Not now. Not ever.

Last week, the executive branch of the US government loudly and clearly declared Trump’s intention to radically remake America into a carbon copy of his favorite nation on Earth - Putin’s Russia. And hadrly anybody has uttered a word of surprise or protest. slavamalamud.substack.com/p/putins-pla...

Judge Diane Goodstein crossed the Trump administration last month. Yesterday, her home burned, her husband was injured and it's being investigated for arson. www.postandcourier.com/news/crime/s...

‼️ Trajectories of missiles and drones during today's one of the most massive strikes by Russia on Ukraine. 🚀 According to monitoring channels, Russia launched about 700 UAVs, up to 50 Kh-101/Caliber missiles and 2 Kinzhals.

Lviv region: a family of four killed by the Russian massive attack. A 15 year old girl is among the victims. Four more people injured. Private homes destroyed.

Spot on.

Ukraine’s intelligence says China shared satellite data with Russia for missile strikes on Ukraine, including hits on foreign-owned sites. Chine has been Russia's ally despite claiming neutrality in the Russo-Ukrainian war. euromaidanpress.com/2025/10/05/c...

I can’t get over this. Trump bailed out Argentina farmers with $20 billion of our tax dollars, then China turned around and bought soybeans from them instead of US farmers. Not AMERICA FIRST, America got played.

Keep in mind that this is someone who - while making a film about a man who brought a steamboat through the Andes - actually brought a steamboat through the Andes.

Nokia & Ericsson get squeezed out of the few crumbs they still had on Chinese market. All the while, Huawei & ZTE have retained 30 to 35 per cent of the European mobile infrastructure market. Huawei 50%+ of German 5G access network. Absolute economic security folly. www.ft.com/content/7d08...

MH17-style atrocity narrowly averted. @michaeldweiss.bsky.social, who exposed Russia's parcel bomb network, reveals for Euromaidan Press how close Europe came to mass casualties at Leipzig Airport.

Greetings from war-torn Portland. It rained yesterday. I had a delicious fresh hop IPA. The grocery clerk told me about her labradoodle. Pray for us.

I will never forget the story of “Cara”, a 16 year old who was bullied into removing her mask at school. Staff and kids bullied her. Her mom was immunocompromised and undergoing chemo, and Cara was trying to protect her. She caught Covid & her Mom died. We must be better than this.

It's odd that Republicans can do the mental gymnastics to link Tylenol to autism, but not link gun deaths to guns.

The Social Media User’s Prayer: God grant me cacophonous wrath about the things I cannot change, habitual neglect of the things I can change, and absolute ignorance of the difference. social.ayjay.org/2025/09/11/t...

⚡️ EU reportedly considers move to bypass Hungary's veto on Russia sanctions. The commission reportedly proposes shifting from unanimity to a qualified majority when renewing sanctions packages.

Trump is ordering a 50% tariff on kitchen cabinets, but in apparent deference to JD Vance, only a 30% tariff on upholstered furniture.

This horror will get worse. This is Trump’s fascism on steroids. Horrific and indefensible. “An ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital.” — NYC Comptroller Brad Lander
