At my No Kings protest I saw mostly middle-aged parents with young kids and senior citizens. Is this who Mike Johnson is afraid of? Are the Republicans proud to have a complete coward as their leader in the house?

This reflects my sentiments on LLMs pretty accurately. They are not capable enough to actually replace people but that isn't stopping companies from trying. The question is how far down the rabbit hole will they go before realizing their mistake? futurism.com/future-socie...

My ideal 2028 Dem platform: 1. Prosecute war crimes, corruption, and civil and human rights violations comitted by this admin 2. Eliminate ICE and DHS 3. Pass anti-corruption rules for SCOTUS 4. Break up big tech and media conglomerates 5. Amend the constitution to limit presidential powers

Seeing some leftists struggle to support Jimmy Kimmel because of the TV show he did 20 fucking years ago is entirely what's wrong with the left. If you cannot accept that the culture has changed and the man has changed with it, and celebrate that, you're a miserable cunt.

Am I the only atheist praying for this September 23 rapture prediction to come true? All these assholes will just disappear? What's not to love?

I wish he were alive today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=doKk...

The truth revealed below. Yes, AI will have societal benefits. But left unchecked, the downside will drown the upside. CEOs are going to lay off millions of workers and then use the savings to supersize the concentration of wealth and economic power.

Here it is. A timetable of 100 days of corruption. Breathtaking. Heartbreaking. We cannot let this stand.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Everyone in this administration is now a co-conspirator and should be prosecuted and jailed once we remove them from power. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

I can't wait until they start posting "wins" like the complete destruction of food and water safety.

Watching stock futures right now...

Today will be remembered as the day we were liberated from our jobs, our 401ks, and our rights. Yay.

The USA is due for some serious reforms.

NEW: The ACLU has filed a sworn declaration from a Venezuelan woman who ICE sought to turn over to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act, who declares that "I heard two US government officials talking and they said 'there is an order saying we can’t take off but we already have.'"

He's going to declare Martial Law at the border and then he's going to expand that power to silence anyone who disagrees with him. We are in dangerous times. www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...

This is sickening. We cannot allow this to happen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZXS...

Take a moment today to read about a few of the young children whom Trump and Musk killed by shutting down USAID. The blame for these deaths falls on them. There will be hundreds of thousands more dead kids before their lethal crusade against foreign aid ends. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Conservatives warning about George Soros but make the footage Elon Musk

I'm never going to get over how some of the same people who were horrified at the prospect of returning to a corporate tax rate we had only a few years earlier are now fine with 25 percent tariffs. Corporate taxes don't affect the cost to manufacture a good but tariffs do.

Conservative, evangelical fundamentalists have succeeded in convincing people that their political beliefs are actually broadly held Christian beliefs and being chastised for them is religious persecution. There was zero pushback to this notion in the article. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/06/u...

Watching CNBC just to see how all the losers are reacting to the tariffs and it's exactly what I expected. 1. The "Biden" economy is collapsing now 2. Tariffs are just temporary and the pain is necessary 3. The market will be soaring in 6 months, don't worry

I'm sure all the free speech warriors and guys who need their guns to defend against a tyrannical government will speak up at any moment now.

So the piss tape has to be real, right?

Pretty much all the economic arrows are pointing down now. Buckle up. This is going to be a rough ride down.

It's disappointing to see so many of my fellow Americans quickly and calmly capitulate to a fucking clown. Have ya'll never dealt with a bully before? When they ask for your homework you tell them to fuck off. If they persist you punch them in the mouth. It's not difficult.

This is how we beat the trolls. Ignore them. They are not concerned with having a good-faith debate. They are pathetic losers who are trying to get a rise out of people because that's the only control they can exert in their lives. Don't let them. When they start to appear here block and move on.

Nothing inspires morale like mass firings and forcing people to justify their job under the threat of termination.

Yet another article by a nincompoop clamoring for RTO. My favorite line is "work is doing more than required". No, John. Just no. When I hear that my mind just goes right to "Fuck you, Pay me." www.forbes.com/sites/johnta...

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.

I remember when the right mocked people's mere enthusiasm for Obama. These people want to 1. Add Trump to Mount Rushmore 2. Rename an airport after him 3. Make his birthday a national holiday And they want all this for what? Getting rid of DEI? Nominating judges? Standard GOP tax cuts? Really?

I had this worry earlier today and now it is confirmed. This is 90s internet levels of disregard for security.

Jesus. The Secretary of Treasury doesn't understand how an exchange rate works.

Just in case people were not sure, none of the main characters involved in DOGE have any real cyber security experience and nearly everything they do is the opposite of best practices.

I have to wonder if Elon has some dirt on Trump. After all he did take over Twitter and he would have had access to Trump's DMs.

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

I wrote this last October. Some friends said it sounded "unhinged". When power moves this fast, the people pointing it out will always sound a little crazy—until they don’t.

Great advice. There’s just that pesky risk of life in prison if this regime doesn’t last forever. Or if they decide to throw you under the bus for any reason. And every foreign intelligence service will definitely be targeting you already. Plus a small chance you might get torn apart by an angry mob

I know the spiteful assholes behind this move see it as a way to punish those pointy-headed professors, but this will hurt their students, their communities and states, and also ordinary Americans who benefit from scientific breakthroughs at these universities in countless ways.

The biggest cyber breach in US history is happening right now. We know who the perpetrators are. Some of them are known criminals. We know what systems they are accessing. Meanwhile, law enforcement is just standing around watching it happen. The credibility of the US is eroding before our eyes.

Dear god
