If you look at the sheer insanity of what government officials and agencies openly post on XShitter, it becomes abundantly obvious how much the press is complicit. If Dems did even a fraction of this poasting it would be saturated in news coverage.

The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

The Trump regime is having trouble prosecuting James Comey on frivolous charges, and hasn’t been able to get charges against Letitia James. They couldn’t keep Kimmel off the air. Their desire for authoritarianism is bottomless, but their capacity is not. Hurting people yes, but bluffing a lot too.

“Could?” Let me be clear. A $100,000 H1B will kill our ability to do world class science in the US.

I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Ask her what does antifa stand for??

The more that comes out about various city projects and priorities that Harrell’s team stalled, blocked or killed—I feel like Wilson could have an extraordinarily effective first 90 days by just dusting off all the shovel ready projects and scheduling them.

Abolish. Fire. Prosecute.

Are these official government records that must be retained?

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in. Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators. The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Your IKEA product is your name, spelled backwards, with an umlaut. I am Yëxela, a nonstick frying pan that upon being heated emits an odor of lingonberries and then warps irreversibly

another thing Weiss does is give other very dull people a vehicle to spout bog-standard right-wing ideas and pretend they're being iconoclasts or innovative.

Some have tried to make you believe things about SARS-CoV-2 that are not substantiated by the virus itself or by our knowledge about infections. One of these was claiming "damage" or "dysfunction" of the immune system. They cherry picked some infectious diseases 1/6

Valuable info about the Physics Nobel Prize today from Prof. Joseph Barranco at SFSU on Martinis and Devoret being a grad student and postdoc in Clarke's lab at UC Berkeley & Clark and Devoret being immigrants. "California *public* education made this happen. Immigration made this happen." ⚛️

“Secretary Kennedy is entitled to his views. But he is not entitled to put people’s health at risk.” Six former surgeons general condemn RFK Jr.

This is awful but the constant leaks and eventual fall will be extremely funny.

As basic question from an ex-police reporter: Can some of our journalists detail the training regimen all these new federal agents receive? The lethal incompetence involving use of force and perameters of the 4A suggests they are just handed guns, masks and badges and told to go fuck people up.

New on MSNBC: Trump's new acting U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan has recruited prosecutors from outside her office to take James Comey to trial, after being unable to find any federal prosecutors in her own office willing to pursue the charges, according to two people familiar with the selections.

James Burke's sarcasm as today's journalism

The defining characteristic of Nazism is sadism

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

Yes, they are. "Each employee of the United States Government or of a District of Columbia public employer furloughed as a result of a covered lapse in appropriations shall be paid for the period of the lapse in appropriations..." 31 USC 1341. It's not even close. www.axios.com/2025/10/07/t...

They forgot to separate their recyclables before they left.

I sometimes wonder if he ever saw Back to the Future II, and how he reacted.

his brain’s just fucking melted, man, pooling around in his skull and trickling out his ears

God loves dumb assholes who aren't doing anything complaining that no one is doing anything. I don't.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

Got new SPD cleat shoes for the gravel bike. Damned right that's a message.

You know what was weird last week? I didn’t see anyone fired for quoting words actually spoken by Jane Goodall.

“When a Guardian reporter pointed out on social media that the image was not a genuine photograph… the Oregon Republican Party’s X account replied: ‘We’re not reporters, just bad memers.’” Because no one besides reporters has an obligation to not lie?

Well done.

Identifying public officials isn't "doxing." People have the right to know who is working for their government. Nor, for that matter, is it "radical left-wing terrorism." So it's frustrating to see platforms caving to these bad faith characterizations. www.technologyreview.com/2025/10/06/1...

this is a very very big story because of the apparently totally fake story ICE/DHS put out about what happened.

at this point you have to acknowledge that there is no way that these guys don't try to mess with the 2026 midterms. there is absolutely no respect for the legitimacy of the opposition

THE CHICKENS ARE FINALLY COMING HOME TO ROOST Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Walters’ entire tenure as Superintendent, and it’s about damn time. Also the education dept website’s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense. 🧵

Just look at those rancid Stalinists.

I have been trying to get this published as an op-ed, but I am going to post it here since I think it is timely in light of the "consent" extortion events. Deafening Quiet from the Scientific Establishment jeremymberg.github.io/jeremyberg.g... 1/14

Brunkow and Ramsdell did the Nobel-cited work at Cellgene, in Bothell (a suburb of Seattle). Brunkow got her undergrad degree in Molecular and Cellular Biology here at UW, and currently works at the Institute for Systems Biology, also here in Seattle.

Her disdain for veracity aside, anyone who's watched an interview with Weiss can predict that she is not going to produce compelling television — even as propaganda.
