NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

To all the radical women who have made the world better, especially those women who radicalized us, thank you.

Republicans spend an incredible amount of time and energy finding new ways to obstruct justice and accountability. www.news5cleveland.com/news/politic...

It's pretty obvious to me that the whole parent pearl clutching about having to "explain" the existence of LGBTQ+ people is 1. bigotry entitlement 2. sexual objectification of LGBTQ+ people. They always act like someone is making them draw diagrams of gay sex when it's just "gay people exist".

This isn’t Christ. That is Jared Leto.

JACOBS: Are we at war with Iran? COLBY: We're in a military action JACOBS: Yesterday, Trump said 'we're doing very well on the war front' and previously he said, 'we should expect casualties because that often happens in war.' So is he wrong? COLBY: I'm not the right person to weigh in

BLUESKY EMPLOYEE: I hope our ugly users are hit by a high speed train. BLUESKY POSTER: Sir, I run a food bank for coma orphans! Why would you say such a thing? BLUESKY EMPLOYEE: I hope all the endangered animals on earth die. I hope the sky is choked with black smoke forever.

Bluesky overindexes on humorless scolds and people doing identity formation by arguing with something you didn't say but that doesn't make it an echo chamber; it means the place has an institutional culture, and I much prefer that culture to fending off Nazis with a block button that doesn't work

If you vote to fund the war, you support the war. www.huffpost.com/entry/ruben-...

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

Jayapal: DHS is supposed to be protecting our residents. You have actually turned the United States government against its own residents. Yours is a case of failed leadership secretary, you need to resign, be fired, or be impeached.

If you’re a cis person (like me) but you don’t know who Jesse Singal is, his whole grift relies on exploiting cis ignorance of gender-affirming care cuz he thinks we’re easy marks. Don’t fall for it

Jasmine is a class act.

Jesse Singal now appears to be siding with Ken Paxton on forced mental health conversion therapy for trans youth.

I dunno, I feel like "I'm siding with Ken Paxton on genociding trans youth" should be the demoralizing bit here Jesse

Another thing I noticed in my short-lived return to Twitter yesterday is they're running out of snuff content. I saw two different videos from living room Ring cameras of people passing out because they stood up too fast, implying they died. Fascism is facing a critical ragebait shortage.

Boebert: Have you reviewed any Epstein files that were released that you believe reference or relate to those specific 2016 claims regarding the Podesta emails Comet ping pong pizza used as code possibly. Clinton: Pizzagate was totally made up. I can't believe you're even referencing it

Garcia: "I want to just show this image here. This is an image of some kids, including one of Liam Ramos's classmates. These are kids that are being held at detention facilities."

Garcia displays an image of Renee Good's blood-stained car seat

*Brutal but absolutely fair and accurate *Gives a new meaning to "special government employee" *Yeah, thats her husband listening to all of this

Raskin tears Kristi Noem a new one: "Apparently when your blankie was left on one of the govt jets and not transported to the new one, your special govt employee, Corey Lewandowski, chivalrously stepped forward to fight the pilot -- mid air!"

It's not that I had fond feelings about Neera Tanden before but I think her retweeting Nick Fuentes is pretty good evidence that twitter is a gamma radiation field for your brain

what kind of asshole would write something like th—ah, ok, i see

if you think the greatest threat to effeminate gay boys is the trans movement and not the cis straight men who overwhelmingly exclude and brutalize them then you should walk into the ocean immediately

i still find it absolutely fucking incredible that Marco Rubio has a imagined version of Chiang Kai-Shek that he's turned into a ancestor spirit for the GOP

"Unleash Chiang" was the rallying cry of John Birchers in the 1950s, who urged the US to arm Chiang Kai-shek so he could retake Red China. It later morphed into sports trash talk in the Bush family, like George H.W. boasting to "unleash Chiang" on the tennis court. bsky.app/profile/shar...

Graham Platner, the guy who had to cover his Nazi tattoo to save his senate campaign in Maine, went on the YouTube channel “Valhalla VFT” in January where he said he’s a “longtime fan of the show.” Check out these vile racist thumbnails from the channel & reporting on the antisemitic host.

if they were courageous they would quit. there's nothing brave about killing kids at the whim of an irrational old pedophile

This is the Executive Producer of the (at least nominally) left-wing news program The Young Turks, with almost a million followers. Really does feel like we're headed down a bad road with this growing Red-Brown alliance.

Oh did the captain of the Ottawa Senators finally remember where his actual paycheck comes from

What soulless, cowardice and morally bankrupt looks like.

on the one hand, if it weren’t oz, it would be some other heritage foundation flunkie doing this on the other hand, oprah sure did bring a whole lot of utterly corrupt fucking cranks to the national stage

Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib heckle Trump as he goes full fear-mongering white nationalist

strongly recommend preemptively blocking this guy on here. he aggressively name searches anyone wo criticizes him, jesse singal, or other transphobic journalists and posts screenshots with identifying info on twitter to encourage harassment

For some reason @safety.bsky.app hasn't banned him yet. He stalks, harasses, and doxes people but they seem to be totally cool with it.

Flames. F-Fl-Flaaaames. On the sideofmyface. H-heaving breaths. Heaving breaths. I could get past some of his other bullshit, but I can't abide this. I was with you, @gavinnewsom.bsky.social, but—and I say this with my whole, culturally normal LGBTQ+ chest—you just lost my vote.

The US hockey team is shameful.

We can’t go back

No, leftists do not in fact have to hand it to fascists who happen to hate Jews more than they hate Palestinians.

Netanyahu is a war criminal who belongs in the Hague, but it was non-Jewish Poles who defined Polish identity to exclude Jews, and imposed Polish surnames on Polish Jews that were not deeply rooted in their families or identities. You don't have to deny Jewish history to oppose Israeli war crimes.

Shaun king/tucker/huckabee in one screenshot radiates bad energy

Ben is definitely not mad that Bluesky is talking about how he got mad.

He’s not mad, though. Please don’t post on Bluesky about how he’s mad. bsky.app/profile/clay...

Benjamin Ryan openly admits that his reporting on trans issues is animated by personal bias against someone who was mean to him online. Ben is not capable of reporting on this issue objectively, and yet the New York Times and other outlets repeatedly let him do just that.

A brutal attack you say? Beaten up in the tweets you say? Oh gosh how awful

Rep. Stephen Lynch: "It offers a great contrast. Look what the British government is doing in light of the evidence, and look what the US government is doing. Nothing. Our chief law enforcement officer Pam Bondi is defending and obstructing the investigation."

Wonderful. Just wonderful. An amazing story of perseverance.

Insanity. They are laughing at us.
