To be clear: "A.i." is not going to live up to the "hype" of actually replacing good human work. Its purpose is to destroy our expectations of quality and value and accept ever-increasing enshittification, immiseration, and death in order to increase the wealth of billionaires.

This is so fucked up! Rashad Johnson, who worked as a federal contractor conducting background verifications for ICE, was arrested February 10, 2026 in Bloomington during a sex trafficking sting operation. ICE hires the best men. This guy is vetting ICE agents. WTF 🤬

So DOD risked civilian airspace to obliterate some fucking balloons; when FAA found out and asked them to stop they refused; FAA did what it had to keep people safe; when the public rightly freaked out, DOD relented, lied, and blamed the FAA. Sounds like Hegseth! www.cnn.com/2026/02/11/u...

CNN confirms what MSNBC reported live a few hours ago: DOJ is surveilling Dem lawmakers when they go to the DOJ to search unredacted Epstein files.

ICE agents have already told us who is on the list And we know what the warehouses are for The question is whether or not we do enough to stop them before it's too late

One third of women in America no longer have access to abortion because of Susan Collins’ vote for Justice Kavanaugh. It was not “the right vote.” Susan, you don’t have the judgment to represent Maine in the U.S. Senate.

one thing that comes across in these clips is that bondi is totally out of her depth. just an absolute lightweight. barely sentient.

Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."

Russia keeps sending their troops to die on suicide flag planting missions for purely propaganda purposes that nobody believes anymore.

Kristi Noem has to go. Gregory Bovino has to go. Stephen Miller has to go.

I remember being surprised at how much MeToo took over the minds of certain folks, and I guess I just severely underestimated the number of older men who regarded nonstop predation of younger women as their birthright

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. Now, Starbucks is lifting a cap on the CEO's use of a private jet to commute from California to Seattle. It's been four years since Starbucks stores began unionizing and workers still don't have a contract.

Actually he’s going to give that money to himself to settle lawsuits he filed against his own government. l.smartnews.com/p-78fJt6hi/b...

Look I have empathy for the families losing their farms. Still, they must understand they did this to themselves. The numbers are clear American farmers voted for Trump at a super high margin. Let this be a lesson for others.

"There will be no negotiations in Moscow or Minsk. I cannot come to negotiations with Putin in the capital of a country that is the aggressor in this war." - Zelenskyy.

The Atlantic’s profile of Bondi has some wow. @theatlantic.com www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

I can't think of an attorney general ever showing this much open contempt for Congress before. Not only would most of them think this kind of conduct was beneath them, they'd have known that the Judiciary Committee chair, whatever the party, would never stand for clownish antics like this.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

And you can trust a felon!

Maxwell pleaded the fifth in response to every question from lawmakers during a closed-door deposition Monday.

If only there was some indication, some kind of repeated, overly demonstrative and sneering Congressional testimony from Trump cabinet officials to indicate they feel above both checks and balances and the Constitution.

Massie: "She didn't answer anything. She came here ready to talk about the Dow Jones and the Nasdaq, which seems kind of crazy to me."

During the Trump era we’ve gone from working Americans, trying to live decent lives with hope for the future for our families and fellow citizens to shiftless drags on the bottom lines of the elite 1 % exponential wealth hoarding, deserving of financial insolvency and punitive government internment.

This is a reminder that judges, be they elected directly, or be they put in place by another elected official, in the end they are put in place by We The People who vote in EVERY election.

I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

The WH sidelined America250, the congressionally-formed group charged with organizing a bipartisan celebration of the country's anniversary, in favor of Trump's sketchy Freedom250, as we detailed recently. And AP reports here that the admin is starving America250 of $. wtop.com/animals-pets...

Not sure why movie studios are so invested in horror films when we have hourly Trump Administration and ICE updates on our news channels.

An accurate summation

Nothing makes me feel more like an American in Canada than having a jaded response to a mass shooting.

USCIS has an office by mine in south Denver. They have a large parking lot full of brand new black Suburbans lined up. Looks like they are getting ready to ramp things up in Denver.

“The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.” The document is a how-to guide for subjugating #girls & young #women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early #marriage and #motherhood, and then trap them there.”

the entire executive branch of the us government is a foreign asset and we should be talking about it

Listen up! The SAVE Act hits women hardest. Name change after marriage or divorce? Missing updated paperwork? No passport on hand? Republicans know that reality and built barriers anyway. Women decide elections. They want us blocked. We say hell no! #HandsOffHerVote

People should be required to experience the brutalities inflicted on others before being able to claim that they support those brutalities.

BREAKING: Pam Bondi appears to have just committed a federal crime by lying under oath. Ted lieu just caught her in a lie and called for her resignation live on TV.

The “Freedom Caucus” has brought about the most controlling, governmentally punitive Administration in the history of the United States of America.

Look, Matt Gaetz should never have even been considered for attorney general, but you have to admit it would be hilarious to have him running point on the Epstein Files Cover-Up.

At this point you have to have made a decision that your soul’s fate is of no consequence to you to keep supporting Trump.

What are a few raped children when compared to the Dow Jones industrial average?!

Invoking wealthy class solidarity to excuse sex crimes against children is sorta the Epstein Class in a nutshell

Imagine if they’d grow a spine…. substack.com/@milestaylor...

When the U.S. uses the military against citizens, attacks immigrants, and executes people who pose no threat, it jeopardizes our national security because it incites violence, invites retaliation, normalizes fascism, and sets precedence for others to follow suit.

I'm pretty confident we wouldn't be seeing Kamala fighting to protect herself from allegations of raping children, nor her staff being dragged in front of Congress weekly for lying about raping children and murdering citizens.
