Really looking for someone to respond "Arrest This🖕".

I still sometimes think about how baffled and upset Jake Tapper was that people had no use for his fucking book other than as the subject of anatomically improbable suggestions for what he could do with the many unsold copies.

Is there any evidence that a grand jury foreman actually signed this thing?

Generations of GOP policies making inequality worse have entered the chat.

If you get your news from the Times, or the LAT, or the Bezos Post, or CNN, CBS, ABC, or NBC, you can be forgiven for being one of the 30% who don't know who's responsible. Except for the part where you don't realize all those organizations are regime soft propaganda outlets now.

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

i desperately want everyone involved in the destruction of USAID to have to, st the very least, answer to the american people for the suffering and misery they have caused apnews.com/article/myan...

I know it's hard to accept emotionally or intellectually. But the reason 100% of what Republicans say now sounds like Lewis Carroll and Charles Manson ate the brown acid is because they are only talking to those inside the Fox bubble now. All of the menacing gibberish makes perfect sense there.

this is incredible

The people who are sincerely in favor of freedom of expression will speak out now for the reporters.

“No one man can terrorize a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices.” -Edward R. Murrow

as free press effectively takes over cbs news, keep in mind that democratic investments in media have been minimal -- at best -- and the party and its donors continue to light money on fire for dumb campaign bullshit that makes consultants rich but doesnt win elections or change the narrative

ICE is doing a hell of a lot of harm in the Chicago area *right now.* I don’t mean to trivialize the national guard stuff, it absolutely is an irresponsible escalation, but the guard-centric convo around this really does understate what’s going on without any guardsmen.

Let it never again be said that a woman with no real reporting experience who fell for a Twitter account called "Official Antifa" cannot be the head of a huge news organization

Narrator: This is fascism.

Mark Kelly: “lf you are undocumented in our country, you cannot get healthcare from the Affordable Care Act exchange. You are not eligible for Medicare. You are not eligible for Medicaid. They’re just making that up. They just like to blame brown people.”

I am just so fucking proud of her.

Things that would have shocked 1970's-me about 2025: "1. Tiny TV/Phone/computers in everyone's pocket." "2. Many women will be very muscular and you'll like it." 3. "Thai food." Things that wouldn't have shocked teen-me: "Stupid people voted in dystopic garbage-can authoritarianism."

Casey Desantis’s charity that got $10 million redirected from a Medicaid fraud settlement the state entered into directly into its bank account rather than the FL treasury.

"Excessive reliance on data dependence." WTAFF does that even mean? If what he really means is the Fed is too reliant on data, oh yeah, data is bad. At last interest rates can be set based on the I Ching or astrologers, maybe poll the customers of a midwestern diner. www.msn.com/en-us/money/...

Just a reminder that the MSM chortled and normalized away Bridgegate when Well Known Republican Moderate Chris Christie acted on this exact same mindset.

I rode the metro as a child in the 1990s when the murder rate was several times higher than it is now bsky.app/profile/joel...

Completely agree on this

The president just told all of the military's leaders that all Democrats are evil and promised to send the full force of the military into Democratic cities to assault the "enemy within," and there's *still* a chance that Democratic congressmen provide the crucial votes to keep this regime running.

What in the fuck kind of normalcy meth are the editors at Bloomberg feeding the reporters who wrote this savvy smiley face rendition of this terrifying event? 111https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/trump-tells-top-military-brass-us-under-invasion-from-within/ar-AA1NBaty?ocid=socialshare#comments

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

Man, every day, I'm just shocked at how hypocritical the people everyone always knew were hypocrites are. Also at the way people who've acted under transparent pretexts for years are suddenly being all transparently pretextual about their motives.

About to be the family that owns TikTok.

Age yourself with a film you saw in a cinema as a kid

Not debating artistic merits here. I'm just saying if I was told I could hang out with any 19th Century Paris literary figure, it would be Dumas père. I would, of course, need to become reasonably fluent in French first. That's where the Monkey's Paw/Twilight Zone curse version of the wish lies.

🎶 “Do you remember his pledge to expose sex offenders? It’s since been erased from the agenda, and hidden from the light of day…” 🎶

He’s inciting civil war.

Boy, the circumlocution editors are sure getting a workout at the New Improved Bezos Post. "campaign to use the military against Americans that has little modern precedent." JFC.

Ossoff: "We have a president who's completely out of control, a crook engaged in unprecedented corruption, who's passing one of the most unpopular agendas in history. The public is turning against him. The opposition is motivated. We can win & we have to win, but we don't have the luxury of despair"

"Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them...The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.” ― Frederick Douglass

Mark my words. He'll be the next MAGA Martyr to Wokeness. They'll have a GoFundMe set up within a week if one hasn't already been created for him.

The way they keep dribbling out bits of the Epstein files reminds me of Nixon dribbling out the tapes.

I swear to god, you could shit better search results than you get from Google these days. So frustrating.

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

Quinnipiac in recent poll asked: Do you think that the way people talk about politics these days is contributing to violence in the United States, or don't you think so? 82% of voters agreed with this including majority of Dems, Independents, and GOP. I said basically this and got fired.

As always, Pat Bagley nails it.

And her entire Naval personnel file.

If I was a prepper whose quasi-religious faith in the inevitability of total social, political and economic collapse has finally been fulfilled, I strongly suspect I'd soon be saying "boy, I wish I'd put all the money I spent on gold coins into more freeze-dried food and ammo."

Despite everything I still have fundamental faith in the American people turning this around and making things better. [reads any New York Times focus group] Fuck this. Fuck everything. Burn it all down. [drinks directly from tequila bottle]

As surely as day follows night, whenever a Dominionist or secular MAGA grifter in office develops a sudden yearning for the private sector, there is always, always, always an ugly scandal chasing them out the door they slammed behind him. Sooner or later it always chews its way out. Wait and watch.
