The Trump administration is sending all pregnant unaccompanied minors apprehended by immigration enforcement to a single group shelter in South Texas. This is a sharp turn from longstanding federal practice, which placed them in shelters or foster homes equipped to handle high-risk pregnancies.

"C'mon kids, I know we own homes you couldn't dream of. We've even grandfathered in our property tax rate so we only pay 20% of what you'd pay in taxes - if you could ever afford to buy. But won't you please think of the millionaire boomers? Can't you pay higher taxes so we can take even more?"

Any reluctance to say Abolish ICE is a full throated endorsement of every single thing they do

Van Der Beek dead at 48, leaving his family (SIX kids and a wife) broke because of the evil insurance system THIS fucking hag took a leading role in perpetuating

I totally missed this epic Santa Clarita moment

Well then there must be no genuine professional law enforcement

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries support this www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

joe are you in the right headspace to receive information that might hurt you about law enforcement, the constitution, and abuse

Least bigoted and cynical Bluesky lib

democratic party cheerleaders are really doing their best to make it seem like the nominee for president in 2028 is gavin newsom already huh

Couldn’t make a crueler caricature if I tried

Microsoft, Google, Meta and Amazon paying influencers $400k-$600k to post months of AI hype content. Absolutely busted, failed industry, embarrassing era www.cnbc.com/2026/02/06/g...

If I start talking about how great AI is, u know BG is getting that bag

My answer to “Is the Democratic Party controlled opposition?” is basically this

Finally a PAC that isn’t evil

NEWS: AIPAC has a new opponent. PAL PAC. As Netanyahu comes to DC yet again – while public opinion tanks on Israel – @votepalpac.bsky.social launches today, seeking to end the Israel lobby's hold over US politics. It's endorsing 4 current members, with more endorsements & primary challenges ahead.

1. it's not? 2. what's "true" in a very obvious sense is that they're going to try their best to MAKE it true and still replace every job they can with it despite it, again, not being true 3. it then follows that the way to "think seriously" about it is to be as skeptical & hostile to it as possible

"if something is logically possible, we have an obligation to treat it as plausible" is a load-bearing column of what i like to call Smart Dumb Guy Epistemology

DMFI's first foray into funding ads in elections was against Bernie in the 2020 primary and AIPAC expedited its entry into congressional primary spending after AOC, Tlaib, Bush and Bowman scared everybody when they called Israel an apartheid state in May 2021.

I cannot emphasize enough that the impetus for direct spending on Democratic primaries from AIPAC was the May-June 2021 intifada and, to a lesser extent, the Bernie 2020 campaign.

What a way to learn this happened. Just a few months ago he was auctioning memorabilia to pay for treatment. Very sad.

Really sad. I’ve seen him and his kids standing in the Austin FC Supporters Section with us regular folks and always thought that was cool. I’m 43 and hearing that someone passed from cancer in their 40’s is especially sobering

they seem to resent him specifically for being principled, not understanding that if he was just another democratic shill, he wouldn't have an audience because the pod save crew already locked that down.

Our tax dollars directly paid for this

This is among the most dystopian, barbaric criminal industries that we've seen... and it's not even big news globally

In this New Brief, we detail how the New York Times, Atlantic, and others are using the specter of ICE's extreme violence and kidnappings to create a narrative of successful post-George Floyd police reform that simply does not exist.

It’s been a bipartisan war against workers in service of capital and billionaire class. The livelihoods of billions of people have been worsened and the entire planet’s ecosystem endangered so that a few thousand people can be billionaires (and soon, trillionaires)

Once the corps and oligarchs 100% took the news mass media it was really game over wasn’t it? Reagan killed the fairness doctrine. Clinton & Repubs then scrapped rules prohibiting media consolidation. Followed by 25 yrs of mergers, hiring careerists & firing real journalists and here we are.

Funny number to end this on

While I’m boosting my own thoughts this is my take on Hasan Piker

lmao

Like, in this worst case scenario, what is weedlenin420's responsibility here? bsky.app/profile/chri...

Don’t have to worry about that because it’s not and even it if were we’re not going to submit to our would-be techno-fascist slavemasters

when does congress get to the part where anyone is punished

CONGRESS: Will you commit to provide this committee with your list of entities that you recommend be designated as domestic terrorist organizations? PAM BONDI: I'm not going to commit to anything

Cops go out of their way to sexually assault women when they violently arrest them

Fuck this view of cops, touching a person isn’t fucking assault

This is funny coming from a guy demanding people vote for Gavin Newsom in 3 years *if* he’s nominated in an election so hypothetical we can’t even be sure it’s going to happen at this point

Translation: “Rich Ruling Class Democrats can fuck things up all they want and it’s up to you, the individual worker and voter, to pick up their slack”

Cool 12 years of this and then 12 more beyond that until a Nazi Killbot is President thanks Robert. Thanks for everything your generation and its politicians have done for us

That’s not true and it’s an intentional obfuscation of something that is demonstrably true and it’s that many liberals hate socialists more than fascists Also fuck Gavin Newsom forever. Never voting for him. Nominate someone progressive that working people want to vote for

tbh nobody should be asking leftists if they'll support newsom and leftists should mostly brush off the question. it's a divisive trap that serves *only* newsom's personal interests. he isn't the candidate, he's a shithead and nominating him would be a bad idea. useless hypothetical.

boy there sure are too many people in the replies trying to handwave this away instead of simply acknowledging that Dem fundraisers shouldn’t have been contacting Jeffrey Epstein in 2013

You can’t have an abortion but you can kill your grown daughter if she disagrees with you

"why is the left so bristly at the claim that the left is becoming more antisemitic?" idk man, maybe because of the massive international repression the last two years of anyone that criticizes israel as being "antisemitic" like people are getting locked up and deported over antisemitism claims

Wow I’d hate it more people made JD Vance upset in this very specific way

the best part is how they let us see them whine like little babies so we know what bothers them and we can do it again

Politicians assuming new identities to run as democrats seems a decent barometer of how toxic the Republican brand has become.
