most journalists are getting their news filtered by fascists if centre-left political parties had all moved off twitter 6 months ago, we'd be in such a stronger place right now

Tolkien’s palantír fell under the control of Sauron. Thiel’s Palantir is falling under the control of Trump. How this story ends is up to all of us. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/jun/30/peter-thiel-palantir-threat-to-americans

1930’s?

(Reuters) - Staff of the Federal Emergency Management Agency were left baffled on Monday after the head of the U.S. disaster agency said during a briefing that he had not been aware the country has a hurricane season, according to four sources .. @reuters.com www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

The Wall Street Journal had a piece last night that the Judicial Conference of the United States — the policy making body for the federal judiciary — is discussing whether the Judiciary should have its own armed security force rather than rely on the U.S. Marshals for federal judges’ protection.

Serious Credit Card Delinquencies (unpaid balances for at least 90 days) just hit their highest level in 14 years 🚨🚨🚨

This is corruption we need to talk more about. Brad Smith is a billionaire, runs healthcare for DOGE, & has a side business that sells services to Medicare & Medicaid. That means he decides who gets Medicaid & Medicare AND gets a tax cut. Watch Rep. Jake Auchincloss explain:

There. It. Is.

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

The U.S. is on track to have the worst whooping cough outbreak since 1948. Some regions are reporting that they are struggling to do contact tracing of cases because they are ALSO managing measles investigations. And, of course, funding cuts to public health have resulted in fewer resources.

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

He's such a graceless cunt. He's going to look like a moth-eaten baboon next to Carney.

"What I want to show you today, and please, let's not gossip about this, is what these two lovebirds have been doing in public." @saletan.bsky.social breaks down Trump's weird relationship with Putin:

This is where Trump is at mentally

The scale of the alleged corruption is staggering - here is the total value of the most serious alleged direct benefit to past presidents or family members as compiled by o3.

Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is obviously real by the creation of this image. Unfortunately, MAGA followers are the ones suffering from this disorder. It is always projection with them. 😳

The CEO of Target donated $1 million to Trump and kissed the ring by entirely rolling back DEI. The boycott has hit the stock so hard this year that his pay has been cut in half. www.startribune.com/target-ceo-b... www.msn.com/en-us/money/...

And you thought the left was censorious. How about actual censoring?

He's "Lord Yarvin" in Silicon Valley.

AC/DC performed a stirring rendition of our national anthem last night at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas

This is wild: Trump is offering visits to the White House to people who invest in his bullshit crypto scheme. It is pay-for-influence in the most naked possible way. Just because the corruption is out in the open and unhidden doesn't mean it's not corruption.

"The ordeal reminds us of the line from the 1976 classic, 'All the President’s Men': 'Forget the myths the media’s created about the White House. The truth is these are not very bright guys, and things got outta hand.'" @gothamist.com

NEW: In a news release published Monday, the City of Hyattsville Police Department said: “At no time did any member of the HPD identify or file any reports classifying Abrego Garcia as a member of any gang,” HPD’s statement read. This contradicts DHS' claim. www.dcnewsnow.com/news/local-n...

The scale at which DOGE is seeking to interconnect data, including sensitive biometric data, is unprecedented, raising alarms with experts who fear it may lead to disastrous privacy violations for citizens and immigrants alike.

Before press came in — but while live feed was running on Bukele’s feed — Trump said to him: “home-growns are next. … You’re gonna need to build about 5 more places.” x.com/nayibbukele/...

The measles outbreak in West Texas didn't happen just by chance. The preventable disease ripped through communities sprawling across more than 20 Texas counties in part because health departments were starved of the funding needed to run vaccine programs, officials say.

When you’ve lost the DAILY MAIL

This should terrify you.

Historian here: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

We need new leaders in Washington. I’m running for Senate to be one. Let’s go.

Canada's newest refugee , at least she'll be welcomed here we will return her when and if America gets back to normal !!! 🙊🙉🙈

Our Founding Fathers were no dummies. As James Madison wrote in Federalist No. 47: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands...may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” This is what Trump wants. We will stop him.

We’re building the largest one-day mobilization in years. Nothing stops authoritarians in their tracks like organized people power — and we’re organizing it in communities throughout the country. All this work depends on people taking real life action. Join us on April 5: handsoff2025.com/?SQ...

1. Tulsi Gabbard was overseas while participating in the Signal chat. 2. Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the Signal chat. 3. Russia infiltrated Signal some time ago to use it against Ukrainians. It’s high time to Benghazi the shit out of Trump’s administration.

All you need to know about Twitter

A really powerful WWII era "don't be a sucker" piece, that explains how authoritarians have to separate and destroy groups of people so they can take power. I don't usually watch anything this long (22 min) but couldn't stop watching once I started this.

NONE of this is normal
