Worth noting again that everything RFK Jr. does and every death and illness that he causes is 100% the responsibility of Bill Cassidy, who knew exactly who he was voting for and why he was nominated

most of the time I think he’s at least really committed to fascism. but there’s just a lot of evidence he’s bored as fuck and they keep coming up with these little projects for him. I mean it’s important for elderly people to stay active.

Minnesota looks good on this map of Obamacare price hikes post-subsidy expiration … until you realize “good” means a $12,000-$17,999 annual increase, not a $28,000-$49,000. www.cbpp.org/research/hea...

I don't want to add to your stress, but I share these videos because it's vital that everyone understand the threat we face. We need to make sure everyone knows & pushes back. What can we do? A. VOTE B. VOLUNTEER(It's empowering) C. SHARE/SPEAK OUT D. CALL CONGRESS at 202-224-3121 #ICELawlessness

"People can say they don’t want you here,” the judge said. “They can say they don’t like the way you’re enforcing the law and that they wish you would leave Chicago and take your agents with you.” Keep it up, Chicago. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/10/28/j...

Data centers are receiving billions in state tax exemptions. These centers, many owned by Big Tech giants, are driving up electric bills and sucking up huge amounts of water. AI is boosting the stock portfolios of the richest Americans while everyone else pays the price.

The designation would have, as one domestic terrorism expert told NPR, a "cascading effect across civil society, including social media organizations, civic organizations and everything in between." n.pr/4o55SXy

To Steinbaugh, who has litigated First Amendment violations all over the country, Bushart’s case stands out. “One thing that’s unique about it is that nobody has done a course correction here,” he said. “This guy’s been incarcerated since this happened over quoting the president.”

Living thru the new casino economy

"Crypto is the most successful libertarian project in American history.... Crypto has become a machine for transferring control and wealth from the many to the few, a bribery-as-a-service platform for buying and selling influence among authoritarian oligarchs."

At what point when you’re paying troops with your own private money do they not just become mercenaries

Look if this rich disgusting fucker can pay 100 million for the military why can't he pay 100 miliion for SNAP benefits?

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

This is very good

"How would you describe the impact these departures are having on NASA?" "Cataclysmic. Stage five hurricane."

I'm not optimistic there will be anymore fair elections

We've entered a new Dark Ages of Stupidity

NEW: Trump is going to steal $230M in taxpayer dollars by having his DOJ pay him a settlement for his legal trouble. Watch. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/21/u...

Raskin details how he tried to get unanimous consent today to force Johnson to swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the Acting Speaker Haridopolos "scurried out of the room"

Sums up the stupidity of the times we're living in

While the United States has invested heavily in militarizing the police and deporting immigrants, China is taking the lead on science and research.

Historians of the future: Rest assured, millions of us know all this in real time. We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends. trib.al/0islLh9

I wrote about the "Kavanaugh stop" newrepublic.com/post/201888/...

I know it's a fool's errand to expect anything from the media but "President posts video of himself dumping diarrhea on America" is an important thing to call attention to for a dozen reasons

"The Supreme Court Case That Could End Free and Fair Elections" As Trump pressures states to redraw electoral maps to favor Republicans, the nation's far-right justices appear poised to weaken the Voting Rights Act and silence American minority voters:

Block list for Trump regime government accounts. How to Dismantle a Dictatorship, Step 4: Block validation. #3E bsky.app/profile/did:...

Jeffries: "You've got Leavitt, who's sick, she's out of control. I'm not sure if she's just demented, ignorant, a stone cold liar, or all of the above. But the notion that an official WH spokesperson would say that the D Party consists of 'terrorists, violent criminals & undocumented immigrants'..."

And on the 4th day God gave Lyin' Leavitt stage 4 colorectal cancer.

Sunny Hostin to Cheryl Hines: "The problem is that your husband is the least qualified HHS head that we've had in history. I think that's very dangerous. He has spread a lot of misinformation, chaos, and confusion."

As another American who left for Europe, I whole heartedly agree

Ratio me. Please. It's a badge of honor.

ICE GOONS, laughing and pepper spraying Pastor after shooting him in the face with pepper balls, proceeded to gas the crowd who were trying to protect him.

"Look at the picture... One of these is a member of a private militia that supports the President and was involved in a violent effort to overturn the election, the other is an agent of the state. Can you tell the difference?" donmoynihan.substack.com/p/purge-merg...

Just checked into the "Free Press" run by Bari Weiss to see what bottom of the barrel journalism looks like... 🙄

I recently sat down with three leaders who are part of the @obamafoundation.bsky.social's alumni network to hear more about their work to strengthen democracy in Hungary and Poland. They’re an example for us all. Take a look:

Wait until they hear about which side of the Spanish Civil War George Orwell fought on.

There is a real need and desire to escape the social media networks run by evil, sycophantic billionaires like Musk and Zuck. I've managed to substitute Bluesky for higher quality discourse and use Signal over WhatsApp but still missing an Instagram alternative.

Congratulations to this year’s Nobel Physics laureates — all 3 @uofcalifornia.bsky.social professors. Home to groundbreaking physicists, including 2 immigrants leading the world in innovation & possibility, California is proud to dream big & deliver even bigger. www.nobelprize.org/prizes/physi...

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.

"This is supposed to be an oversight hearing" -- Schiff helpfully ticks through all of the incriminating questions -- and there are many of them -- that Bondi refused to answer during today's hearing

Interesting research demonstrating how easily biased LLMs can influence us www.psypost.org/just-a-few-c...

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans. Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies. Folks, I think America First might be a scam.
