Will someone please give this desperate fool a hug? He clearly must have been neglected or abused as a child. I'm willing to take one for the team if it means he'll get sime desperately needed therapy.

Ramirez to Noem: "You lied on the record and you lied to members of this committee. You violated court orders by not turning around deportation flights bound for El Salvador where we know that hundreds of people under your leadership reported they were raped, beaten, and nearly died."

Hundreds of kids in S Carolina are being quarantined right now because of a measles outbreak. I don’t have patience for niceties when it comes to this crap, so if you’re an anti-vaxxer, keep your damn kids at home and don’t travel for the holidays. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

Lemme guess without reading further that these were Twitter accounts.

Glasheen's bald head was shining with sweat at the end. And that's how you corner a liar. 👏👏👏 Bennie Thompson: "Sir you don't come to this committee and say something you can't prove, I know you wouldn't do that, but you did!"

This is clearly a SNL sketch. If only it was because then it would be amusing. This isn't funny at all because these fascists want to target everyone who is anti-fascist. ICE raids are only the beginning.

On Deprogramming MAGA White Women and Mobilizing Progressives with Angie "Pumps" Sullivan Angie Sullivan shares how she went from a conservative, GOP-voting white mom to a progressive firebrand championing diversity, challenging Establishment Dems, & mocking MAGA. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

Republican tax charity to the wealthy since Reagan insanely accelerated the rise of the 1% at the expense of everyone else. The Democratic establishment uses that as cover because they themselves are happy with it. This must stop.

People have no concept of how much money this is. If you make a billion dollars at age 40 and spend $60,000 EVERY DAY until you die at age 85, you still wouldn't run out of money. No normal human requires this much money.

Thrilled to welcome the endorsement of my friend (and NYC Mayor-elect) @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social as we continue to fight for the city that we love.

She’s right. It is normal for the US to impose crippling sanctions on other countries that are not subservient to the US. The US has always taken this approach. In this case, Trump imposed them first, and Biden continued them, now here we are in Trump’s second term.

This is completely bonkers. Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are not architects of AI. They are snake oil salesmen peddling AI. What Time and others call AI is also misleading. Chaining millions of computers together to generate a summary for a search result isn't impressive or AI.

#1 thing centrists and liberals either do not understand or willfully ignore so as to avoid the cognitive dissonance acknowledging it would create.

While Americans struggle with Trumpflation, Republicans are happily sending billions of YOUR tax dollars for Israelis to prosper while they commit crimes against humanity. The entire neo-lib Democratic establishment is also perfectly happy with that arrangement.

Congress just gave $900 billion to the US military in case you were wondering if there were any repercussions for blowing up civilian ships on the high seas. Meanwhile, the FIFA peace participation trophy guy still manages to keep the Epstein list out of the headlines.

If you make a billion dollars — or $500 million or even $100 million dollars — and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.

In order to show their commitment to the ceasefire, Israel gunned down a child then ran him over with a tank today in Gaza

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Lander seems like a genuinely decent human being while Goldman is a soulless ghoul so this cheers me up.

Tesla Simp Owner: My car gets better over time thanks to OTA updates *tesla car depreciates 50% overnight*

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

When BP asked Harry Truman to help overthrow Iran's government, Truman told 'em "fuck off" but old President Beware the Military Industrial Complex responded with "Great idea, we're in!" That's the problem throughout this country's history. Lotsa big talk but nobody ever looks in the fucking mirror.

cases of "imposter syndrome" have gotta be hitting all-time lows since the start of Trump 2.0 - how can anyone feel unsure about themselves while these utter fucking idiots are in charge?

Jimmy Fallon has mussed Trump's hair, hawked nfts (when he was an investor in the nft co.), and now given Sam Altman a platform to talk about using chat GPT to raise babies. At this point I hope we can agree that this soulless buster has more than used up any goodwill he got from hiring The Roots

ZERO Respect for this garbage take. We don’t need AI slop to confirm the obvious.

Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans. Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills. Americans must fight back against billionaires who put profits over people.

BREAKING: At one point, the Pentagon considered sending boat strike survivors to CECOT torture prison in El Salvador to avoid discovery in US courts. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/09/u...

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

I want to be a part of that alternate reality. In this one only a minority of the Democratic Party work to make the lives of everyday Americans better. The majority of the Democratic Party does not deserve our support. We will not be slaves to the rich which they serve themselves as slaves.

If EXPANDING SCOTUS & IMPEACHING THE 6 TYRANTS isn't a part of any Democrat's platform running for election, don't vote for them. ABOLISH ICE and UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE must be a part of that platform too. The short mandatory bucket list must also have ACCOUNTABILITY. Anything less is meaningless.

This is an extremely Texas story: A Buddhist monk who was walking from Fort Worth to Washington, D.C. "to promote peace, kindness and compassion" lost his leg after being hit by a large pickup truck near Houston

The gig, as they say, is up.

I visited the People's History Museum in Manchester (UK) and left extremely impressed by what was on display. It focuses on Britain’s development over the past 200+ years through a working class lens, explaining how citizens fought for and won many of the rights that we take for granted today.

The Democratic Party used to be a socialist, Working Class Party. Zohran Mamdani's win showed what the Dem Party has lost - just ask Bernie.

"When there’s no war, you aren’t committing war crimes when you kill people indiscriminately. You’re just a straight-up murderer."

Biden kept, reinstated, and fought in court for Trump's awful immigration policies. Like Obama with ACA, the group he was trying to please was Republicans. And the results? "Open borders Biden," a response removed from reality. Also, open borders are not scary. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

The ACA is basically the corpo healthcare plan from the same "think tank" that gave us Project 2025.

Right before Thanksgiving, Trump secretly commuted the sentence of David Gentile—a Ponzi schemer who stole over $1 billion from his clients—freeing him from prison after just *12 days.* This is another grotesque abuse of the pardon power that should outrage all Americans. youtube.com/shorts/xXNA1...

Perfect example of oligarch media trying to divide people. This implies older people have all the money, so you should be angry with them. But boomers aren't truly rich. In fact many are poor. It's the .1% oligarchs who are rich. They are the ones screwing us. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Just a gentle reminder that Josh Shapiro signed Israeli bombs and wrote a whole racist paper arguing racistly that peace with Palestinians isn't possible because they aren't capable of it and only understand war. This is who he's always been.

"Peaceful posts on Gaza are quietly buried, flagged or erased... yet dehumanizing Palestinian content is allowed to circulate freely... Vs. logging off, activists, journalists & ordinary users... are piecing together repertoire of nonviolent digital resistance" wagingnonviolence.org/2025/12/pale...

“As a former prosecutor, I know a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich.” This is also why we should not elect former prosecutors to Congress. If they didn’t serve justice as prosecutors, why should we expect them to do so in Congress.
