Seems like this should be getting more attention... www.npr.org/2026/04/02/n...

The Palantir Payroll connects the dots between Palantir and Washington D.C. It’s built to help voters, journalists, and organizers see who’s connected to whom—and what that means for decisions around data mining and mass surveillance. @purgepalantir.bsky.social purgepalantir.com/the-palantir...

🚨 “Leonard Leo, who put the 6 Catholic Supreme Court justices on the court, was my boss for 3 years — He’s a very dangerous man. I don’t think people realize how corrupt and compromised the Supreme Court is.” (From @acyn.bsky.social @pabloreports.bsky.social )

The Forest Service has been an extraordinary public organization. The Trump administration is trying to dismantle it. open.substack.com/pub/morethan...

In the runup to Election Day 2024, Trump repeatedly claimed he was prepared to help families with daycare costs. Seventeen months later, he’s arrived at a very different position: “We’re fighting wars, we can’t take care of daycare.” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Stephen Miller is quietly trying to get a red state to end public funding for education for undocumented kids, to get a case before the Supreme Court to overturn Plyler v Doe, which requires that funding on 14A grounds. And very few pro-immigration progressives are even aware this is happening.

Meet @leelagray.bsky.social the retired Brigadier General running to unseat Ana Paulina Luna, a MAGA crazy who organized a guided tour for Russian Duma members to Washington last week (as Russia was helping Iran target US bases in the Middle East). Let get her some followers and support. 🇺🇸

Well, this interesting! www.mediaite.com/media/news/k...

The media is completely & deliberately ignoring the fact there's simply no MAGA/GOP/Trump equivalent to No Kings...not now, not ever. And MAGA has no idea how despised they are by a majority of Americans.

One of the things that makes bullshit about voter fraud so ridiculous is that its high risk for so little payoff. Do you really think that YOUR vote is the ONE vote that will make a difference?

GOOD! Every automaker should make the same comittment. "There’s two things that are absolutely non-negotiable for me: door handles and buttons. I don’t understand why anybody would have [touch-sensitive] sliders.” - Volkswagen CEO Thomas Schäfer www.thedrive.com/news/real-bu...

I'm horrified/infuriated: Trump's signature will start appearing on dollar bills. This means I'll start using cash more, with a Sharpie on hand, and will be REDACTING his signature from every bill. He will probably demand we print more dollar bills, driving up his historic deficit even more

GREAT NEWS

Watching @halsparks.com via his live stream dismantle a shitastic Trump appearance on The Five. Good lord, this is "the weave" on steroids. Taco is gone... www.youtube.com/watch?v=lszP...

Good job California, you're <this> close to electing a Republican governor and at LEAST six of the Democrats competing have no business still being in the race. And that includes Steyer. Its all a great mix of hubris, selfishness and idiocy. www.desertsun.com/story/news/n...

Good morning and good news.

Zero question as to who is to blame. open.substack.com/pub/gelliott...

The Black Crowes are on a long list of bands where I listen for more to their newer, recent music than the hits that made them huge. Their new album is killer! open.spotify.com/track/4csbKz...

in three weeks they have fucked this up so comprehensively that returning to a facsimile of the previous status quo is now the goal

One thing Biden didn't do that drove me crazy, and the Dems must do when running AND when in office, is to BLAME Trump AND the GOP for the mess they made of...everything. And they need to blame them REPEATEDLY and RELENTLESSLY. Also note that the historic corruption has made the job even harder.

This may be the most powerful 85 seconds I've ever seen on television.

Just a reminder that Trump hooked up with Stormy Daniels four months after Melania gave birth. bsky.app/profile/atru...

How the hell can anyone demand people "respect the office of the presidency" when the vile pile of excrement who is president doesn't respect the office of the presidency? His dementia and mental illness is getting worse by the HOUR.

On Sunday, John Thune told Trump that Senate Republicans would support funding all of DHS except ICE. ICE funding could be handled later in a reconciliation bill. TSA agents would get their paychecks and the security-line madness at airports would end. Trump said NO. He owns all of this chaos.

Happy World Frog Day. A day for all frogs, but Kermit leads the pack. Singing about rainbows, keeping everything together, always showing up. That’s the frog we look up to. #WorldFrogDay 💚

Remember when all the Republican mouthpieces assured Americans that no one would lose health insurance due to Trump's Orwellian-named "Big Beautiful Bill"? Over 2 million Americans have already lost coverage. That's from the facts, not a prediction. www.huffpost.com/entry/millio...

True.

👏👏👏👏

Median family income in the US increased from $10,000 in 1971 to $106,000 today, a 10x increase. However, the median cost of homes increased from $25,000 to $445,000, a 17x increase. And the average cost of healthcare per person increased from $350 to $14,600, a 42x increase. THIS IS INSANE.

Q: You don’t regret that people might’ve lost important income to support their lives? A: No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit. Q: Ok. Did you reduce the federal deficit? A: No, we didn’t.

I really cannot fathom being so racist and power-hungry that someone would rather rule a legally segregated economic backwater as a dictator than participate in a free contest for political power in a wealthy, diverse country, yet that's the fascists' plan

Hello?

The best thing that could happen is for these mega-corporations to lose billions thanks to AI. And the AI companies to lose billions, too. Really, if Facebook went belly-up, that would be a net-plus for society. futurism.com/future-socie...

Agreed. Right now.
