“There’s nothing Christian about Christian Nationalism.” —James Talarico

“Now, there's one thing that you men will be able to say. Thirty years from now when you're sitting around your fireside with your grandson on your knee, and he asks you, ‘What did you do in the great fight against MAGA?’ you won't have to say, ‘Well, I shoveled shit in Louisiana.’” —George Patton

Calling political opponents fascists and mocking victims of political violence? Republicans would NEVER

Another segment CBS doesn’t want you to see… youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...

It’s all starting to make sense.

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/11/u...

If you’re not aware of how seriously bad things are right now… THINGS ARE SERIOUSLY BAD RIGHT NOW. You need to choose a side. Before it’s too late.

Bad Bunny was spectacular. Period.

Even Trump didn’t watch Kid Rock. He watched Bad Bunny at his own Super Bowl party. Sitting at a table with Lindsay Graham. (Someone please turn this into a haiku. It’s close…)

“MAGA is the last refuge of the scoundrel.” —Samuel Johnson-ish

An NFL owner who’s not an aging pedophile. Refreshing.

“Let’s say it: Trump is a racist. The Republican Party tolerates—if it does not actively endorse—his racism. Those who normalize him enable racism. His agenda is grounded in racism.” —Jennifer Rubin

“Well. That made me feel more proudly American than anything Kid Rock has ever done.” —Kacey Musgraves

“The Trump tariffs amount to an average tax increase per US household of $1,000 in 2025 and $1,300 in 2026.” —The Tax Foundation, the world's leading nonpartisan tax policy nonprofit

“The Trump tariffs are the largest US tax increase as a percent of GDP (0.54 percent for 2026) since 1993.” —The Tax Foundation, the world's leading nonpartisan tax policy nonprofit

Bless them

I'll be honest, when I helped work on this piece, i did not expect it to go where it did

We’re committed to keeping NYC’s entertainment industry strong. 🎬 Yesterday, the WGAE joined @sagaftra.org, other members of the Film and TV Union Coalition and @nyclabor.bsky.social to discuss the future of entertainment in NYC with Deputy Mayor for Economic Justice, @juliesulabor.bsky.social.

"No, I didn't make a mistake," he said on Air Force One. "I looked at the beginning of it. It was fine." Trump says he won't apologize for racist post depicting the Obamas as apes www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

Not one person on Earth believes it was a “staffer.”

Why does MAGA celebrate cruelty? "The best political weapon is the weapon of terror. Cruelty commands respect. Men may hate us. But, we don't ask for their love; only for their fear." —Heinrich Himmler

@hasanminhaj.com has a great interview with Annie Jacobsen, author of “Nuclear War: a Scenario” Thank you Hasan!! Please support ICAN @nuclearban.bsky.social And get our electeds to support the TPNW! youtu.be/MEcQM3Blvzw?...

NEWS: The U.S. Supreme Court will allow the new California congressional map to stand, rejecting Republicans’ bid to block it. It’s a huge win for Democrats heading into the midterms.

Kennedy Center workers are a vital part of bringing the performing arts to life in the nation's capital. We stand with @kcunions.bsky.social!

“It isn’t a crime to party with Mr. Epstein.” —Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche [the perfect slogan for their T-Shirts]

Let’s be crystal clear: Bad Bunny is an American citizen. The “All-American” TPUSA MAGA-friendly “alternative” halftime show is therefore undeniably, explicitly racist.

“Old enough to remember the ‘Obama is going to grab your guns’ hysteria. Turns out it was the Trump White House.” —Rep. Brendan Boyle

Hundreds of our @hearstunion.bsky.social members stood together today by walking out in support of a fair contact. NYC, LA, Birmingham, Ann Arbor and Easton all have one demand: FAIR CONTRACT NOW! Thank you to @jumaane.bsky.social @nyclabor.bsky.social and @afm-union.bsky.social for joining us!

Per BBC, “Police specialising in combating cyber-crime, assisted by Europol, have raided the offices of Elon Musk's social media platform, X, in France.”

Jeffries: "We cannot trust the Department of Justice. They're an illegitimate organization right now under the leadership of Pam Bondi and the direction of Donald Trump."

This. They are turning the wealth the American people have created over generations into cash for their own dirty pockets. It’s obscene.

Portland, Maine www.pressherald.com/2026/01/30/l...

Marco Rubio has many titles, except when it’s time to take accountability. He may be the Secretary of State, but Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are negotiating with foreign leaders behind his back. When did the Senate confirm them as our representatives on the world stage?

Nick Shirley and others like him are reminiscent of yellow journalism of the 19th century, updated and turbocharged by social media algorithms. Read more: www.theverge.com/news/869824/...

The American people have put their lives on the line to resist ICE. Literally. ICE is a broken agency that does not deserve to exist. The necessary reforms must come very close to shutting down ICE and rebuilding it from the ground up. bit.ly/4k9XcOy

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

Ilhan Omar: “In the 4 years when Biden was president, my death threats went to almost zero — now they are back up — so there is a clear correlation between his presidency & the political violence that we see & the political danger that a lot of members of Congress & electeds feel across the country”

Join us as we honor the memory of union member Alex Pretti and stand in solidarity with the people of Minnesota.

"I was only following orders" wasn't an acceptable excuse at the Nuremberg trials & won't work now. #AccountabilityIsComing

“The disruption and the moral harm that ICE has done to our state is unimaginable. It’s worse than you think.” —Governor Tim Walz

Trump just reposted a tweet calling Alex Pretti a "domestic terrorist"

Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, Greg Bovino. They must all resign and be held accountable.

wait one of those people IS ME

“If you raise your voice I’ll erase your voice” said an ice agent. Insane

just a reminder: if fire hydrants near where you live are buried in snow after this week’s storms, it’s a mitzvah (and a gooooood workout!) to dig out around that hydrant so fire crews can get to it faster if need be.
