Republicans pass laws claiming to help consumers like expanded drilling for oil, opening federal lands to mining & laws they claim help small farmers but only help large agri-businesses. And prices keep going up. If Congress passes laws under false pretenses they should be null & void.

🥳 A small town in #Oregon is celebrating after officially stopping a large data center from being built in their community‼️ The #LaPineCity Council voted unanimously to reject the proposed project 👏

Silencing freedom of the press. Essential for all dictators.

just finished my round trip to my RSS feed with news from the United States. all i have to say, kindly, is: WAKE THE FUCK UP. if you see any movement to oppose this regime, join it now. learn how to mobilize and help others to. This is no time for caution.

Oh my yes!!

‘Republicans are the party of war, inflation, corruption, and cultish worship of a man who is a convicted felon, civil fraudster, sexual abuser, sociopath, protector of pedophiles, malignant narcissist, and existential threat to democracy.’—Robert Hubbell Substack

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

Absolutely nothing is stopping John Cornyn, Tillis, Murkowski, & Paul from caucusing immediately with Democrats & giving them control of the Senate. The same is true of Thomas Massie & any 2 retiring GOP Reps in the House. It is a choice to continue caucusing with the authoritarian personality cult.

Remind me again, who was President during WW2?

ICE hasn’t gone away. It’s still the largest most heavily funded (un)law enforcement agency in the world. If currently they’re not making headlines it’s because they’re being trained to be more lethal and under control. They’re an occupying force.

The tech bros gave us crypto currency that isn’t currency, artificial intelligence that isn’t intelligence, and prediction markets that are inside-trader scams. On the other hand, they have given us gigantic data centers that employ no one and destroy communities. So there’s that.

The Andean cock-of-the-rock, also known as tunki, is a large passerine bird of the cotinga family native to Andean cloud forests in South America. It is the national bird of Peru. Primarily eating fruits its disperses undigested seeds across the mountain range helping regenerating the forest.

I ain't embracing shit. Demi Moore, Sandra Bullock, all you boneheaded Hollywood hippies and woo woo peddlers, kiss my whole arse.

“A morally and emotionally normal person might be somewhat chastened by being told, to their face, in an official hearing, that they had caused a young woman’s death. Not so the British press. This, for them, was only the start.” www.liberalcurrents.com/the-end-of-t...

Did it happen at the corner of Epstein Ct. & Distraction Ln.?

Autopsies show how hard doctors tried to save babies who died after not getting a vitamin K shot: tubes inserted in their airways, blood transfusions. They’re excruciating to read because they underscore how preventable these deaths could have been. By @deldeib.bsky.social

Hell Yeah Science☄️💥⚡️💯

Every American should be disgusted by this.

This is the most tragic novel I’ve ever read. I’m sitting here, heartbroken over this poor bird.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Release the #EpsteinFiles! Punish the guilty and their enablers. No more delays. No more cover-ups. Justice matters.

IKR?!

NEW: An $11,000 golf cart. More than $7,000 on TV subscriptions. $1.5 million in office renovations. Those were among the expenses that one sheriff’s office billed to a settlement aimed at rooting out racial profiling in the department. With @azluminaria.org

A man died of a heart attack in a county with no hospital and no paramedics, about 20 miles from the nearest ERs. Can Republicans’ rural health fund help? Local leaders don’t think so. kffhealthnews.org/rural-health...

I'll never forget or stop reminding people that the full Epstein files should be released. The survivors deserve justice.

TFW when your 82-year-old Midwestern dad can’t take your call because he’s too busy organzing against ICE.

This is a true statement and we’ve got to get the vote out to stop this madness.

Experts are projecting that the war in Iran will cost taxpayers $1 trillion. The people in charge just gave the richest 1% a $1 trillion tax break. And they really want us to believe SNAP and healthcare are the problem?? Get real.

I second this

It's worth noting that Anita Hill accused Clarence Thomas of sexual harassment in 1991 and in those days other women also testified that Thomas had a heavy obsession with pornography. This coincides with his appearances in the Epstein Files. Maybe we should look closer.

BLUMENTHAL: Was the Capitol attacked on J6? SCHWARTZ: There was definitely trespass & violence B: So the Capitol was attacked? S: You're asking me to weigh in on sort of public characterizations B: You're insulting our intelligence. Do you really expect us to accept these canned answers?
