Prove that you're human song

I said what I said.

Still slow to spending more time here, but leaning away from Facebook. Maybe it’s just time to drop some memes.

I’m soon to kick Facebook to the curb (as one does Nazis and other toxins), so I’ll try and throw more things in here. Like photos of the west of Ireland where I currently sit. Must I return?

This needs to be posted early and often!

You know what's scarier than the Pentagon having a secret drone program? A blackout drunk in charge of the Pentagon having a drone program.

imagine a country so furious about drag performers that it voted for polio

For as long as I live I’ll never understand how anyone could have voted to return the madman responsible for this horrific attack back to the office he was trying to steal. youtu.be/_b-T_xbOaCk?...

Between July of '79 and December of '80, my dad died, Reagan was elected President and John Lennon was murdered. I was 18. Welcome to adulthood.

BREAKING: During the final weeks of the presidential campaign Elon Musk, the right-wing MAGA billionaire, made $75 million in campaign contributions to his Trump-aligned America PAC — Musk has contributed a total of $238,523,078 million to America PAC, according records filed today with the FEC.

“You can say he had fascist rhetoric and still go in and talk to him” is probably the most perfect encapsulation of liberal capitulation you’ll ever see. We’re lucky, in the modern age, to have Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski give people a clear example of what a quisling is in high-definition.

It’s not going to show up in an article or coverage tomorrow, but the open murder of a CEO was cheered by a ton of people and turned into a meme. Like, I really don’t think people have fully wrapped their heads around how quickly shit is changing and what the overarching sentiment is becoming.

I personally don’t celebrate gun wielding assassins in broad daylight under any circumstances. That being said: United HealthCare absolutely did try to kill me by trying to cut my chemotherapy dosage and I had to get my senator to intervene and it was one of the most traumatic weeks of my life.

It shouldn’t be ignored that Kash Patel chose to plead the Fifth in response to a grand jury subpoena over the Mar-a-Lago classified documents. He only testified, involuntarily, after being granted immunity. Think about that. Trump’s FBI nominee pled the Fifth in response to a DOJ subpoena.

Despite over 100 reported violations of the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire, Pentagon spokesperson says they "assess that the ceasefire continues to hold."

Response to coups by elected leaders: - South Korea: blocked by mass mobilization of citizens - Brazil: coup leader indicted, barred from politics - United States: coup leader re-elected with majorities in the legislature and a compliant Supreme Court

TRUMP: I’m going to use the FBI illegally to go after my political enemies! BIDEN: Um, I guess I’ll pardon my son then because fuck that. MEDIA: Biden is breaking norms!

Number of New York Times stories yesterday on Joe Biden pardoning his son: 6. Number of New York Times stories yesterday on Trump promising to weaponize the FBI to go after innocent American citizens who he considers his political enemies: 1. THIS is the failure of American media.

Nichols: You have the makings of a not so slow motion authoritarian takeover of the United States government. And people ought to be really concerned about this.

So a reminder: It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom. It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president. It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child. For the record.

EVERY. WORD. OF. THIS.

Trump won *98%* of farm-dependent counties in America. Now the farmers in those counties are begging Trump not to deport their workers. FUCK AROUND meet FIND OUT.

THIS JUST IN: An investigation of Tulsi Gabbard's PACs shows much of the funds raised have gone to fundraising & to pay her advisers, not the stated mission of the PACs. Plus, she won't reveal the donors to a charity she runs. All this needs vetting. Pass it on. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Trump is lazy, intellectually incurious and utterly selfish. He doesn’t give a single shit about the American people. The entire REASON he ran for a second term was to escape prosecution. That’s it.

Pretty crazy someone can be charged federally with interfering in an election and those charges get dropped because they win an election.

I don’t think a United States senator saying this should be taken lightly

White, privileged nepotism baby stepping into a high-level policy position has thoughts on racism. Oof.

Also…

Here's Donald Trump's Senior Director of Counterterrorism, Sebastian Gorka, wearing a Vitezi Rend medal. He is a sworn member of Vitezi Rend, a Hungarian group that collaborated with the Nazis during World War II. Bro has zero business in that role.

The fact that it does not shock me that Trump has appointed a Nazi just shows how desensitized we are to his Fuckery.

Holy fuck. Seb Gorka is his pick to be senior director for counterterrorism. Seb fucking Gorka, who was denied security clearance in the last Trump administration… Seb fucking Gorka who has ties to a Nazi-allied organization in Hungary… The. Director. Of. Counterterrorism.

Bernie’s here on Bluesky.

It’s difficult to overstate what a huge deal this is. Perhaps, dare we hope, justice is finally coming for the people of Gaza. A first, historic step.

A reminder today, as US politicians including the President fall over one another to attack the ICC over arrest warrants and defend Netanyahu…
