Via NPR ~ Hundreds of celebrities have relaunched a committee to defend free speech that was first formed during the post-World War II Red Scare. It’s spearheaded Jane Fonda, whose father, Henry Fonda, stood against the Hollywood blacklists of the McCarthy era.⁠ ⁠

There is a reason the UK has declined this year

Merry Christmas.

Im so tired of rich people being assholes.

Gotta say, as a survivor, I’m not super loving this thing where the Department of Justice is running a cover-up of evidence the President sexually abused minors.

Turning Point USA was founded in 2012 by Charlie Kirk and Bill Montgomery Two of their major policy pushes were a more prominent gun culture and zero COVID restrictions Bill Montgomery died to the COVID virus Charlie Kirk died to gun violence

Wow.

James Talarico: The Bible doesn't mention abortion or gay marriage, but it goes on and on about forgiving debt, liberating the poor, and healing the sick. The closest thing we have to the kingdom of heaven is a multiracial, multicultural democracy where power is truly shared among all people

Best film of 25? (Mine is Sinners. Hands down)

Trump's speech last night can be summed up by a quote from Macbeth: "...a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

The Vanity Fair photographer from the Susie Wiles story. Holy. Shit. www.washingtonpost.com/style/power/...

@johnpavlovitz.bsky.social wrote it, im sharing. Sorry the photo is so disgusting.

Im just so sick of all this. Enough already. He belongs in prison.

Look, for GenX kids Rob Reiner was the first look at a person who embodied pushback against old school racists. We all loved Michael on All In The Family. He then showed up, repeatedly, to bring us joy, and stand up for the underdog. Rob, we all love you, and are grieving. Rest in peace, friend.

This x 1,000!!!

Just when I thought I couldn't admire the man more... 🎯 🎯 🎯 💯 💯 💯 👍 👍 👍

Hey, ice, show your faces. Cowards.

Trump is the guy who creates a problem and then comes up with a solution that his deranged fans then call a genius move. I am so sick of this asshat. You?

Is it wrong that I delight in seeing people like Elon musk go off the rails because he's just not cool enough to be liked? By anyone? Ever? Remember the kitchen sink? He thought that was funny. His jokes go over like a lead balloon.

He really looks rough. When my grandfather looked the way he does it was about two weeks before he died. This is a scary time.

Red Lobster never released a commercial with a jingle that went “Shrimply having a wonderful Fishmastime.” That’s why they went bankrupt.

Hey America, if you were a Christian nation, you’d be feeding the poor, not yelling at them for using food stamps.

Presented without comment. (Which is, in itself, a comment.)

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime. If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder. It’s that simple.

Keep in mind that white American males shot and killed countless Americans including many children, and no one ever did a thing but protect their right to do it again.

The only Epstein files I want to see are the unredacted files. Nothing less.

Charlie Kirk spent $30K per month on a trans woman’s ‘Spicy Site’? Wow, Happy Thanksgiving! Take that little bit of information with you to your family dinner with your MAGAt in-laws ! 🍁 Is it true? I guess we’ll find out before Christmas and you can rub that in too. 🎄 #Pinks #CharlieKirk #Trans

‼️‼️ Newly released emails show the FBI spent almost $1 million in overtime analyzing the Epstein files as part of an effort dubbed the “Special Redaction Project."

@johnales.bsky.social you've been on my mind lately.

Carrie Fisher was the blueprint. Protect your people. Call out the predators. #RESIST

Haha, she should have been more honest and said "I don't want to go through or my family go through the stuff I have done to others, like chasing David Hogg down the street after he went through a mass murder at his school!". Good riddance!

I heard rfk speak and thought it was someone with advanced parkinsons (saying some really stupid things). Iykyk.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Jesus h christ, release the fucking files already.

Oh my. James Talarico is incredibly skilled in dismantling Christian Nationalists. Get this man in the Senate.

New York City billboards are displaying the president’s 91 felony charges.

I still can’t believe this motherfucker tore down the East Wing.

i just read something about grief from C.S. Lewis and his book, “A Grief Observed” basically, when someone you love dies, it isn’t just them that you miss, but the parts of yourself that person brought out of you that can never be brought out again. i feel that with my dad.

The truth will have its day. That day is now. Release all the Epstein files.

Mtg will never. Ever . Be forgiven.

i used to think the lyric was ‘i wanna rock and roll all night / and part of every day’ and i remember thinking, honestly that sounds reasonable
