Being neurodivergent or disabled can make interacting with police downright dangerous. In fact, half of all US police violence is enacted on people with disabilities, mainly disabled people of color. Source: www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... (1/2)

JB PRITZKER Could Be A Good Candidate For President........ ?

I feel so confident with this administration’ Centre for Disesase Control in charge /s apple.news/Ac5XF3Y3JR8q...

I've come to the conclusion that I'm off putting in some sort of way. I need to hire someone to pretend to be me and then sell my books for me.

Every state should take a page out of Hawaii’s playbook on tackling Citizens United

We are very far off the cliff, folks. @CBS should be avoided entirely. Shame on them.

Satire & Political Comedy Are Resistance 🎭 "Authoritarians don’t like anybody who doesn’t give them undue dignity. Comedians are anti-authoritarian by nature. And authoritarians are never going to like anybody laughing at them." - Stephen Colbert

So the trade bullshit was to bankrupt the farmers so land for data centers could be bought for pennies on the dollar. Got it.

When politicians say they can't hold corporations accountable, remember: they can. They just choose not to.

Good morning and happy Friday to everyone. Honestly, voting is like taking a bus. If there isn't one going exactly to your destination, you don't stay at home and sulk—you take the one going closest to where you want to be. We can vote better than they can cheat. 💙🗳️

Patriotic Americans should question what kind of person could support someone who starts senseless wars, is a serial adulterer, an admitted sexual predator,a pathological liar, a megalomaniac,has gone bankrupt six times, has 34 felony convictions, and — not to mention — is tied to the Epstein files.

PSA: If you spot an abandoned vehicle in an odd location within a roadway and with one or more doors left open—chances are ICE forcibly removed someone from the vehicle and just left their car; this has been ICE’s practice in hundreds of documented cases. And that’s documented cases. Stay woke.

This New Yorker cartoon is accurate but a gut punch.

Katalin Karikó is one of the most extraordinary scientific stories of this era. A girl from a modest Hungarian household helped develop technology that saved millions of lives worldwide. In 2023, she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for discoveries that enabled effective mRNA vaccines.

You Go Jasmine Crockett 👏🏻......

Stephen Colbert is a national treasure and so is every member his extraordinary team. it’s a travesty their show is ending. honored I’ve somehow have been on the program four times (!) and that I bear even a slight resemblance to the kind-hearted man behind that desk.

hey you. yes You. I want art from you. no I don't care that you "can't" draw. I am commissioning you, forcibly.

No one has been arrested yet for the Epstein Files. But now, we are going to arrest a 90-year-old man for murders he committed 30 years ago, but not a rapist who committed it 30 years ago?

A few days ago, in another thread far far away, Tamika Thompson offered to buy, autograph & ship a copy of her book to a lady who was not able to get it from the library. This act of kindness haunted me a bit. It was a rare, generous & elegant offer. 1/ @tamikathompson.bsky.social

REED: How many taxpayers' returns were leaked by the IRS in the 2020 breach? BLANCHE: Excuse me? REED: 405,427. One of them was Donald Trump, correct? BLANCHE: Donald Trump and his family. REED: And Donald Trump was president at the time. So it was his IRS that allowed this breach of privacy

Find a way to convey HOW BIG this Terrorist Slush Fund is, like @pbump.com did here (or even simply pointing out that Trump is taxing every single American $5 to pay off his terrorist buddies). www.ctinsider.com/columnist/ar...

Today, Blanche got very offended when I called him out for continuing to act like Trump's personal attorney. Now, we learn he quietly signed a deal to bar the IRS from EVER reexamining Trump's, his family's, or his companies' prior taxes. How does this serve the American people?

Memphis is under occupation—and has been since September.

So once applications open for the $1.7B slush fund, we're all going to apply and break their portal, right?

I’m sure it’s fine. Frank Bisignano— who reportedly oversaw a program at JP Morgan in the 2010s to spy on JP Morgan employees using software from Peter Thiel’s Palantir—is both the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration & the CEO of the Internal Revenue Service under Trump 2.0. 1/

This is, I think, a better reading than others are doing. 1) It is retrospective, nor prospective. 2) But it is not limited to tax crime. It includes all crime. 3) And it likely explains why Todd Blanche got SO freaked out when @vanhollen.senate.gov noted he was Trump's former defense attorney.
