Here's a great explanation of the history of Columbus Day. youtube.com/shorts/6j_qU...

As an Italian-American, I’ve learned that #ColumbusDay isn’t about glorifying a man—it’s about belonging. But we can also honor the truth of Indigenous history. Both stories matter. Both deserve respect. 🇮🇹🪶 #IndigenousPeoplesDay Read more 👇

ICE / Border Patrol threatening to arrest a cyclist for following and recording in Chicago

FORBES: “The cryptocurrency appears nowhere on the financial disclosure the president files with the government... But make no mistake, Trump is one of the largest bitcoin investors on the planet.” #GoldenAgeOfCorruption www.forbes.com/sites/danale...

for active military or if you know someone in the military: “The Orders Project is a non-partisan program created by the National Institute for Military Justice to assist military personnel in understanding their options when faced with orders they believe may not be legal.” www.nimj.org/top.html#/

it actually offends me how sloppy and careless they are. anyone who’s ever been laid off knows the panic you feel when it happens. and while obviously it’s good that they backtracked, these are people’s fucking LIVELIHOODS they’re messing with.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Schiff: "If a president in secret can put names on a list and kill them, then there is no war power still retained by Congress, and there's no check on an executive who may drag us into another war."

Good afternoon. U.S. District Judge April Perry just took the bench for today's status hearing in Illinois v. Trump, over deployment of the National Guard. A link to the complaint, for those who don't have it: t.co/yaknq55rr8

This you, Trump?

I really hate my tax $ paying for GOP political ads, per this statement on DoJ website: "Democrats have shut down the government. Department of Justice websites are not currently regularly updated. Please refer to the Department of Justice’s contingency plan for more information."

i think gay people are fantastic and not going to hell. see how easy it is to say what you believe if you're not afraid of getting jumped for it?

I knew they’d come for the archivists and librarians but honestly I assumed it would be for a reason better than “Our Special Boy wants to give his friend a sword! Give him a sword!”

This is absurd. The Cheeto Clown has a hissy fit that he can't loot the museum and try to impress King Charles, so he squeezes out the head of Eisenhower's library. WTAF.

We can fund health care and keep the government running, or we can shut everything down to raise prices on people. To me, that’s a pretty easy choice.

I would never believe this could happen in America. 😠

Everyone should listen to Chris Murphy's extraordinary warning about Trump on our pod. First, he says the logic must be that the more lawless he gets, the stiffer the resistance. "If I give in and consent to these kinds of tactics then it just normalizes it all." 1/ newrepublic.com/article/2013...

BASH: The argument Dems make is that insurance companies start to make plans soon, and so by the time they make that plan the ACA subsidies will expire. Isn't there something to that? JOHNSON: No. That's a December policy issue BASH: But insurance companies have to make decisions well before Dec.

Fun fact: There has never been a separate male and female standard. When women entered into combat roles there was one standard set and everyone met them. Someone should let the "secretary of war" know that. He keeps repeating the same bullshit about separate standards.

Jon Stewart was disturbed not just by President Trump’s decision on Saturday to send federal troops into Portland, Oregon, but by Trump’s apparent reasons for doing so.

I fully understand how difficult it is to remain focused on any one particular atrocity but this really ought to be a serious scandal and people need to pay heavy prices for this

Trump is ordering the military to use “full force” against an American city, while the Supreme Court declares him the Sun King and Congress hides under a pile of coats. The checks and balances only work when the institutions aren’t run by utter cowards and the complicit

WATCH — @adammockler.com to @scottjenningsky : “Trump created this environment over the past decade… I’m a 22yo YouTuber and you hold me to a higher standard.” (He points out Trump posted Dems are the “party of hate/evil/Satan” and nobody noticed because he has so normalized it)

Let's do the time warp again! Raise your hand if you grew up going to the Saturday midnight screenings of Rocky Horror Picture Show. 🙋‍♂️

This is the first forecast that has looked good for Austin in a while. 🤞 no more mid 90s to 100 F this year!

You cannot trust information coming from Kash Patel's FBI. You cannot trust information coming from ICE. You cannot trust information coming the Trump administration. You cannot trust information coming from Republicans.

It’s strange because his team is known for their core competence.

News Analysis: For President Trump, a wide-ranging crackdown on mainstream media institutions and political opponents is not about hate speech, but about speech that he hates — namely, speech that is critical of him and his administration. nyti.ms/3VsCyO4

I'm in Canada right now listening to an American comedian who had to travel to another country to safely criticize Trump. Freedom!!!

🧵 Gentleman in DC on the suspension of @jimmykimmel.com: “But you know who the real villains in this whole thing are? The 60-some percent of American voters who didn’t [vote].” LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK. 1/

Van Hollen: "Those who cave in -- those like ABC who cave in -- what they do is give the bully an even bigger appetite. When they appease they bully, they put all of us at risk."

I feel like in the past 8 days Charlie Kirk unexpectedly became the face of an authoritarian crackdown and now Jimmy Kimmel is unexpectedly becoming the face of the backlash

Reality jolt ⚡️ Meet Caroline, a former TPUSA insider. She saw firsthand how Kirk’s world runs on cruelty, trolling, and blind obedience. It took years to admit the truth. NOTE: recorded in July, before Charlie Kirk’s murder, which makes it hit even harder.

So, it's official, we have no more 1st Amendment?

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

I needed some personal time today. So, I went to therapy with Paolo at Vice and Virtue . It's kind of like sitting in a barber shop for 8 hours. Most of the work was on the back side, but I couldn't get a good pic. Better pics are coming soon.

It’s officially #SendJayAway week! Which means it’s time for the fundraising drive! How do you participate? Donate to your local food bank, send me the receipt and your school allegiance, and I will keep track of the funds and fans of which school donates the most!

We just watched the Weakest Link Glee Reunion episode. Oh man, I forgot how much I miss that show, but it was great seeing some of the Glee cast back together.

The police will call you about photos you post to private chats. They will do this almost immediately, it seems www.kenklippenstein.com/p/charlie-ki...

“We’re celebrating the legacy of our martyred free speech hero by firing a bunch of people for saying mean things about him” is the kind of thing Tom Lehrer could have done roper justice to.
