We do not deploy American forces against Americans in our own cities. Our military is not trained for domestic law enforcement. It’s illegal and un-American.

They’re not acting like they’re in a four-year term. They’re acting like they’re in an everlasting dictatorship. Are we all clear on this?

Thou Shalt Not Declare War On Thine Own Country.

Science 101. Correlation does not equal causation. Tylenol aka paracetamol doesn’t cause autism. A correlation can lead to all sorts of causal fallacy. Like so. 👇

Why would the DOJ scrub the fact that right-wing extremism is the #1 domestic terror threat in America? Why not acknowledge and confront it? Also why haven't they released the Epstein Files? Also why did Ghislaine Maxwell get a sweetheart deal transfer? These problems won't go away.

I didn’t grow up in the wild, but I was raised by a family who used margarine containers as Tupperware.

Hey Canadians. I’m Indigenous to these lands and my creator promised me the land your house sits on so you’re going to have to vacate it and leave never to return or else.

I just can't grasp how my countrymen can't understand this: undocumented immigrants come here and as soon as they can start contributing to the economy -- whereas rounding them up and detaining them, or deporting them to third party countries, COSTS BIG MONEY. Make money vs cost money. So simple.

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted.

This is reflective of the moral rotten & decay. That is now governing this nation.

One thing we have learned is that homelessness in America was 100% a choice. If we can stand up housing for detainees all over America in a matter of months, we could have done so for the homeless. We demanded far far too little from our Democratic leaders. We should have demanded they do more.

they tried to "un-woke a robot and it went full nazi" is something out of a 30 Rock TV show

The US prison population has declined from 1.6 M in 2009, years to about 1.2M in 2023 and was projected to fall as low as 600K in 10yrs The escalation in ICE is designed to facilitate state repression, but it’s also a blank check to the prison industrial complex and private prisons. Abolition now

The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 called for dismantling the NOAA, which provides warnings of natural disasters, such as the deadly floods in Texas. The irony is that Heritage wanted these cuts because it’s angry that NOAA helps prove the reality of climate change--the thing causing floods.

Same thing with crime stats, stolen elections, and “great healthcare plans.”

i saw this man tie a damsel to the train tracks while wearing a top hat

Senator Carlos Guillermo Smith Legislators have the statutory authority make unannounced visits to state run facilities, but the DeSantis regime is REFUSING us entry into 'Alligator Alcatraz'.

Cutting Medicaid to fund tax cuts is the political version of selling grandma’s wheelchair to buy crypto.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

So do I.

Make no mistake: Alligator Alcatraz IS a concentration camp, and they absolutely ARE planning genocide and ‘ethnic cleansing.’ As a white person, i don’t know what I can do to help, but if all I have is my voice, I will make sure it’s heard.

Poem: To The Young Who Want To Die By Gwendolyn Brooks #poetry #poemsky

Hot take: Not only are work requirements for Medicaid bad, tying health care to work at all is cruel and we should be doing it less not more. Everyone deserves health care. Everyone.

Republicans push grandma off a cliff. Media: “Why didn’t Democrats install a railing?”

Isn’t all plastic surgery gender-affirming surgery?

A Minneapolis pediatrician said he felt pressured to “fall in line” with child abuse specialist Dr. Nancy Harper and her team. Then he was given a choice: resign or be fired. @jlussenhop.bsky.social

It's incredible that neither the president nor VP was here. The politicization of all facets of American life is coming from the White House. No other American president would have failed to pay their respects. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Justices Sotomayor and Brown-Jackson have such a DEEPLY TOXIC work environment. I sincerely hope they have the support they need in this moment. They worked their entire lives for this opportunity, only to have the (always complicated) Court become…this. I see and respect their efforts.

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.

They're just televising the construction of concentration camps like it's a good thing. This is unimaginably dark.

My favorite word here is "normie"

Ace Bailey will either be an All Star or playing in the G-League in five years.

Nothing screams 'freedom' quite like arresting people in wheelchairs protesting Medicaid cuts.

Crockett: The First Lady, a model— when I say model I’m not talking about Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford, or Naomi Campbell level— applied for an Einstein visa. You’re supposed to have some sort of significant achievement… She had none of those. It doesn’t take an Einstein to see the math ain’t mathin

The Iranian government notified (thru intermediaries) their intention to bomb the US airbase in Qatar. Because they recognized deaths of Americans would drastically escalate this. How upside down is world politics when Iran is the calm, rational voice in an armed conflict? #uspoli

The number of immigrants detained in ICE facilities across the country has reached a record high of more than 56,000. The driving force behind this surge is the detention of immigrants with no prior criminal convictions.

A day after President Trump said Iran’s nuclear program was “obliterated,” officials said they didn’t know the fate of Iran’s uranium stockpile.

Maybe this is a weird SPEED situation where if ESPN doesn't show the Haliburton injury replay every 15 minutes the production truck will explode

A North Eugene High School student crosses the stage with a beaming smile at the Leavenworth International Accordion Celebration. The accordion strapped across her torso is nearly half her size, but Maria Telesheva carries it as though it’s an extension of herself.

ABC’s Jay O’Brien is reporting that republicans in Congress were briefed ahead of the strikes, but that democrats were not briefed until after the attack was underway.

no accidents

If I hear another person say ‘American democracy is falling apart’ I might lose my mind. American Democracy isn’t collapsing. That’s ridiculous hyperbole! Something has to exist in order for it to collapse. What IS collapsing is the mythology of American Empire.

Does Prince Charming still exist? A spate of media scrutinizing the one-percent—including “Materialists” and “Anora”—attests to the difficulty of romanticizing wealth and love.

Operation Midnight Hammer was a HUGE success

God help me. I decided to rearrange my bookshelves. I am a fool. A fool!
