Waiting for the perfect opportunity for one of my enemies to err so I can call them tedious and tedentious. Especially tedentious. I remembered that word today and boy howdy one of my enemies will feel its sting

Woods Ervin of Critical Resistance notes the Legislative Analyst’s Office found California could close five more prisons—saving $1.5B a year. That money could fund Medi-Cal, food aid, housing, and other vital programs. Check out my latest @therealnews.com therealnews.com/prisons-clos...

people need to keep canceling their subscriptions and hollywood people need to keep up the pressure criticizing them and saying they'll never work for disney. frankly all the entertainment business unions should be on strike.

I was fired from my gig as a primary and middle school drama director on Monday. We live in frightening times. Take care of each other, and reach out to me if you want to talk 🧡

the garland-led doj has to be one of the dumbest in history www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

Jimmy Kimmel was taken off the air after our government threatened a private company with retaliation, marking a dark moment for free speech in our nation. More than 400 artists across our nation signed on to say: We refuse to be silenced by those in power.

someone gets it Mamdani pulls planned ABC town hall event after network suspended Jimmy Kimmel’s show www.amny.com/news/mamdani...

To be clear: this entire “we’ve got to run more pro-lifers” insanity is because literally a week ago polling showed that Democrats would prefer politicians like AOC and Mamdani over Jefferies and Schumer by, let me emphasize this, a 20 point fucking margin. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

my question for ahmari: the federal reserve is subject to democratic control — congress can, whenever it chooses, alter the terms of fed independence. how and why is the unilateral authority of the president, exercised outside of rule if law, more democratic than congress’s legitimate authority?

Brendan Carr threatening ABC on Benny Johnson's podcast reminds us it was just a year ago we learned that Johnson and other high-profile right-wing podcasters were LITERALLY ON THE KREMLIN PAYROLL and everyone on the right said "Eh, whatever, no biggie" and they're still doing their thing.

i think one thing people have a hard time grasping is that the central figures of the trump administration are not bad as in "the worst republican blowhard you know," but bad as in "the worst people you have ever heard of." donald trump is a serial rapist whose best friend was a pedophile.

A good illustration of how traditional journalistic neutrality runs into trouble with Trump, these people are required to live in a Trumpist halluciniation that demands they invent and believe total fictions to remain in good standing bsky.app/profile/mmas...

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended. It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.

I love it when I see a profile where they are like “no DMs, if you DM me that is the same as killing me, no DMs for any reason”

We have gathered here to mourn the murder of one of our own and to encourage the murder of many others

The idea that if you make Dems a little more Republican, Republicans will vote Dem is what’s breaking us. And it doesn’t even work!

Just over on @cnn.com leaning into #newspeak But enlighten us. What exactly is a “chief loyalty enforcer?”

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

It would be nice if Ross Douthat could someday bring himself to stop coyly pointing to racists doing racism as examples of civic virtue underappreciated by liberals and just cop to the fact that he's personally a giant racist

What ICE just did to me was a violent abuse of power — and yet it’s nothing compared to what they’re doing to immigrant communities. I’ve been fighting the right as a journalist and now I’m running for Congress to do the same in DC. Because we deserve leaders who will actually stand up for us.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

Israel killed 31 journalists in Yemen strike

The Republican reaction to Kirk’s murder has been a campaign of state repression that ends with Trumpist toadies deciding what Americans are allowed to think, do and say. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I wrote about how Democrats and the press aided Trump's obvious five year quest to transfer ownership of TikTok to his technofascist buddies under the pretense of security and privacy concerns:

I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical.

The loser energy that radiates off "it's illegal not to like me" shit like this is palpable bsky.app/profile/zack...

It is the job of the Democratic party to sell and defend the policies that most Democratic voters want, not to present a candidate slate that is palatable to moderate Republicans who might switch if they hate their own candidate enough.

Sorry I was late to your wedding, my flight was canceled because my pilot posted a Charlie Kirk quote verbatim in the comments of an Instagram Reel.

Conservatives think black children are adults and don’t look away from that being the reasoning for legislation like this. It’s about whupping the ni****s and keeping them in line — and several Democrats voted for this

After 47 years, Jerry has made the difficult decision to step down from the company we built together. I’m sharing his words as he resigns from Ben & Jerry’s. His legacy deserves to be true to our values, not silenced by @magnumicecreamco.bsky.social #FreeBenAndJerrys

My US Government teacher spent half of every class ragging on Bill Clinton with whatever Rush Limbaugh's talking point du jour was.

depressing Musk correctly reasoned people were so addicted to The Platform he could transform it into a recruiting tool for fascism, pump Nazi shit 24/7 and most users would stay sitting in the toilet as long as he also artificially juiced engagement

liberalism told itself a bunch of myths for most of my gen x childhood - that things like mass protest for civil rights and an end to the vietnam war just shook the foundations and the good guy won. now we have no fucking clue how to win, because we lied to ourselves.

to recap liberals freaked out at criticism of biden and israel on tiktok. democrats caved and pushed for a tiktok ban. trump won. he sold it off to right-wing interests, meaning that along with twitter it will be a digital version of fox news.

This was such a massive failure at the congressional level. The misguided and widely criticized attempts to ban TikTok only empowered Trump and his conservative media allies in the end—like many critics of the ban legislation feared it would

The shape of politics in the US right now is increasingly that the media, political and economic elites are allied with the Trump regime against the actual people of the country who hate it

A reporter just asked the U.S. president a perfectly legitimate question about his attorney general's vow to prosecute people for constitutionally protected speech. He responded by threatening to prosecute the reporter. The threat itself is an abuse of power. It ought to be an impeachable offense.

No one ever talks about how Ezra Klein is Ethan Klein’s dad

been very hard to watch a bunch of 50-year-old podcasters come to terms with having a job.

I’m sure they’ll try stuff against civil-society groups and people if they find an opening, but the VP telling folks to call people’s bosses is sort of a tell that the fed govt. can’t lawfully or semi-lawfully do much here.

They stormed the Capitol chanting "hang Mike Pence" because he wouldn't lie for Trump.

Liberals overthink this so much. We are morally superior to the Right. We have truth and facts on our side. We make this harder than it has to be.

I appreciate your campaign's transparency and Heater's hard work. 🫡

Solidarity with Elizabeth Spiers, who did something enormously brave and is now facing some very scary consequences

America lorded over by a dying billionaire pedophile who seems to be spending his time shuffling around having strokes and a perpetually embarrassed Campbell's Soup kid with unresolved daddy issues that he is going to make the entire Earth's problem just in time for the semiquincentennial

These are right-wing terror events I covered just from 2017 to 2023. It's not even close to comprehensive. The government's trying to erase this history.
