So....the Fourth Reich?

Wow…. Jennifer Jenkins doesn’t hold back when asked about Randy Fine.

Wow

I think my biggest gripe is the lack of understanding that this world will NOT heal from anti-Black racism just bc you tax the wealthy. Just because you deconstruct the class barriers, racism is so deeply ingrained, you can't ignore that component to any political arm you affix yourself to

The moment you think you can untangle class from racism is the moment you've lost the plot. You already lost the fight bc you will be crushed under the weight of their whiteness (or desire for proximity to whiteness) bc whiteness is SOCIAL currency. Social currency is still capitalism.

While “architect of arguably Trump’s most cynical policy scheme to appoint drug cartel bosses and their cronies atop the governments of every Latin American country in the name of fighting drug cartels” "Rubio turns out to be more in bed with narco-kingpins than Scarface" bsky.app/profile/hier...

Marco Rubio’s history and connection to the drug world is pretty insane prospect.org/2025/12/23/n...

When he mentions civilization (in every other sentence) he's actually saying whiteness. So of course the North American plains were "empty" before Columbus. He declared mass migration the biggest threat to "civilization" now but when it happened then it created "civilization". Of course.

Rubio just made a speech to the European defense community in Munich that did not mention Ukraine. Or democracy. Or US business deals with Russia. Or the administration's plans to support the European far right. But there were lots of nice words about our common civilization.

it is the oldest ideological trick in the book, one played by bosses and books alike, to take a realist investigation of real estate, race, and class mobility and neuter it into smut and THAT rather than “faithfulness” is the problem we experts have

The son of migrants raging about how migration has ruined Western civilisation. You can’t hate your way into whiteness, man. Ask Vivek.

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.” - 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas. Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

What’s so awful and stupid about this is that it applies to every single right-wing “Intellectual.” The whole culture is a snake pit of race science cranks and misogynist perverts. They have not changed their positions meaningfully since the civil war began.

Romania has decoupled economic growth from pollution faster than anywhere else in EU. Its net greenhouse gas emissions intensity fell 88% between 1990 & 2023, so each euro’s worth of economic activity heats planet 10 times less. Emissions have plunged by 75%. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Remember: this guy admitted that started churning out right wing agitprop because he couldn’t get book contracts and work writing the serious stuff he wanted to write.

gotta do investigations into DHS “waste, fraud and abuse” as pretext for killing the agency

and i wrote this a decade ago about jackson as the model response to trump-style politics www.slate.com/articles/new...

Civil rights figures like Jesse Jackson are why black feminists are theorized intersectionality: he might have forged a multi-racial coalition but black woman weren’t always in that coalition. Complicated man, complicated politics.

time to pass out a bunch of “fell for it again” awards bsky.app/profile/sbag...

It costs $130 + a $35 facility fee to obtain a passport and an extra $30 for a passport card. In California, fees for certified copies of vital records are between $18 and $31 each. How is the SAVE Act not a poll tax?

Jesus Christ these people are monsters.

once again pointing out that Trump vs. US is a treasonous decision--the Supreme Court equivalent of January 6--and the justices who voted for it have forfeited any claim to legitimacy (or indeed due process) whatsoever

you're using your institutional authority to delete the civil rights of 340 million people and install Trump as a king? okay, the next president, if there is one, is changing the locks on the Court building. those are the rules that you people established

And that’s before they replace Alito, who maybe has had a an actual thought at some point with a guy whose only qualification is kissing Trumps ass during an interview.

Even people who are appalled by what this court has done give them way too much credit for having an actual consistent philosophy. Even the executive immunity ruling will only stand until a Democratic president is accused of something.

This is dangerously naive. The rules will change on Jan 20, 2029 for a Dem President if court reform isn't undertaken immediately. bsky.app/profile/emdo...

Any Dem that comes in without a plan for court reform will effectively be a lame duck on day 1, who will spend 4 years giving orders to agencies that the Supreme Court tears up and reverses with the help of burrowed right wing bureaucrats.

One thing that's important to realize now is that, even in a scenario where Dems sweep to a crushing trifecta in 2028, Republicans will use their control of the courts to attempt to continue, as much as they can, to run executive agencies in exile, with DHS/ICE under Biden as the model

i hope he runs though so he can destroy rahm emmanuel's career on stage or something

i think a campaign geared toward what people online were arguing about in 2022 is probably not going to work out

Jesse a Jackson interviewed me once and I could not believe that the man standing next to MLK at the moment of his death found a reason to speak to me. I was and remained stunned I was so honored. Rest easy Reverend.

Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program. "Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."

A reckless & dangerous ICE apprehension chase led to the death of another US citizen. Linda Davis, a special education teacher, was killed because of #ICELawlessness. Call Congress at 202-224-3121 & demand accountability! It's okay if you've called before. Call every day until they call back.

Reuters: New Mexico lawmakers on Monday passed legislation to launch what they said was the first full investigation into what happened at Zorro Ranch, where the late U.S. sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is accused of trafficking and sexually assaulting girls and women.

What is the Republican Party's favorite data format?

Trump’s the star of the Epstein Files.

Trump just announced he was “totally exonerated” in the Epstein files, which means he is guilty as sin.

They want ICE agents to wear masks but ridiculed citizens for wearing masks during COVID. The hypocrisy is beyond the pale.

If only he and one other like-minded Republican would caucus with the Democrats, they could actually make a difference.

Notice we never see a dime of that funny money? More like "groundbreaking Trump corruption."

Mike Rounds says Republicans just want to make you show your document with a yellow star in order to vote

There are no words to adequately describe the depravity of the theft and betrayal of the United States of America by Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff.

Words fail me when it comes to describing this sort of evil done very clearly and simply for evil's sake. "Depravity" is maybe the only one that comes close

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...
