so the person whose entire career consists of falsely accusing people of being antisemites is the new EIC of CBS News while the person accused of exposing an actual antisemite is facing decades in prison, cool stuff

a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

In case it wasn’t clear, the anti-DEI crusade has never been about merit. Zero news experience. Never been a reporter. Elevated to Editor in Chief of CBS News, one of the most storied news institutions in the nation. www.mediaite.com/media/news/p...

my son was in a gifted kid program and killed by a sentinel

Everyone in this admin is a different type of tik tok guy. Natural cures only no medicine guy. Alpha warrior guy who hasn't been in a fight with anyone except his wife. Evil trad wife

Lost track after they gave unanimous consent hundreds of times in the first few months. The fascist cabinet was one of the fastest confirmed in modern history. It let all these awful people come in at the top and immediately implement the most destructive agenda in the history of the United States.

The truth is, the Democrats gave back hundreds upon hundreds of hours of legislative time to the GOP for free. Every single senator did it, not just Chuck Schumer. At one point. noted insurrectionist Senator Kennedy was so shocked by how lucky they were he said "Thank you Jesus".

When Democrats kept saying "IF WE DO THAT THEY WILL JUST DO RECESS APPOINTMENTS" they willingly handed back the GOP the full tempo of the fascist takeover for no reason at all.

This is adorable

This has been the strategy since I first became a voter decades ago, and it has demonstrably made the party and the country worse.

“Nazism is attractive to those too young to remember a world war” God damn

me playing FFT for the sixth time: no, I don't think I'll learn what Zodiac sign do

Repost if you support trans people and think we're neato

A lot of people think that every international student admitted means one fewer spot for domestic students, when the opposite is more likely true - the tuition revenue international students bring allows public universities to provide substantial discounts to domestic students, improving access.

one thing that’s cool about the United States is nothing, it pretty much sucks shit

It's the end of The Best American Poetry. I wrote about the forty-year anthology project, poetry’s place in Big Five publishing, and editor David Lehman's culture wars vision of American verse. defector.com/good-riddanc...

"i’ve been getting a little bit of flak just because my dad died in 9/11” is an awesome line

Accidentally thought too long about how small my dog is and got emotional

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

So a Trumper with an assault rifle massacred people in a church and burned it down because he hated Mormons. But we're so used to seeing THAT, it'll be out of the news by the end of the week. No flags at half staff for the slain worshippers I guess.

Kaleb Horton, again: "It's sad how many RTs you get by saying the world is ending instead of admitting the scary truth that it's not and there's work to do in it."

i will die on the hill that this goes beyond a generational divide. the meat of a 23-minute video can be written down and read in a fraction of the time. if you're trying to make a point to me a send me a link to a yt video, expecting me to devote HALF AN HOUR to it, you are a psychopath.

Horrifying— Barbara Gomes Marques went with her US citizen husband and lawyer on 9/16 to a green card appointment at USCIS office in downtown LA where she was tricked into walking down a hallway away from them, was snatched by ICE and never came back. She now faces imminent deportation in Louisiana.

just guess

The state could have backed him but instead they demonstrated for the thousandth time that there is no level of respectability that will prevent white people from serving you up on a platter in order to appease powerful racists.

This is doing numbers on social media right now and it's so depressing how people truly yearn for this shit and want to preserve that feeling indefinitely like a mausoleum of false memories.

"one officer smiled for a selfie with her as she cried."

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

It really can’t be set enough that the Trump admin, and particularly Miller, are just shooting people in the water and then saying they were drug dealers. That is what’s going on. Good arguments in favor of not charging the admin with murder under guise of authority don’t exist

50.000 movies about Nazis and here we are having to remind people that masked goons kidnapping non-anglo looking people off the street should be shamed and exiled...and that's after 2 years of reminding people that genocide should be a red line not to be crossed. Complete failure.

"I don't get to draw the line" — you are a wildly influential journalist with an audience of millions, you absolutely do get to draw the line!

They can say this kind of shit out in the open now because there’s no fear of accountability.

it's almost time to catch major league baseball playoffs fever because major league baseball playoffs fever vaccines are unavailable following new directives from the dept of HHS

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

“The president should be removed from office because he is plainly insane.” I mean, there is no war in Portland. There just isn’t. You can’t & won’t avoid reporting this story. But you’ll still find a way to try to report it in a way that gives him the benefit of the doubt. And that’s wrong.

Elvis is the rare celebrity of yesteryear that if anything would fit in even more today because he was super into self defense and being high on drugs and talking to a crooked President and dating a teenager, he’d 100000% have a crypto thing going on

Getting sued by John Carpenter for calling my sex tape 'In the Mouth of Madness'

I can’t tell you how much good could be done right now by average citizens socially cold-shouldering anyone tangentially working for ICE.

What @notalawyer.bsky.social said.

NEW: Six people detained in California’s newest + largest ICE facility speak out, saying they are confined in filthy cells, struggling to access basic medications, going hungry due to insufficient food, drinking dirty water, and faced with “military-like” staff. “This place is built to break us”

Ezra Klein is a Bill Maher-type bad faith actor masquerading as a liberal for entry into right wing culture. Do not even bother with this guy. There will always be people jockeying to be "The Liberal Who Gets It" in right wing circles.

A new complaint from ACLU and other human rights groups details how the warden at a Lousiana ICE facility created an unofficial “work program” of manual labor and sexual humiliation for trans men at the facility. This is very hard to read. rfkhumanrights.org/wp-content/u...

i would again like to remind everyone that NEGATING A FRAME REINFORCES IT "he's not really targeting criminals" makes it an argument about criminality "this is a fascist attack" states what is actually happening START WITH WHAT IT IS not what it isn't

streaming platforms have robbed us of the randomness that used to be both an essential property of tv watching and a quality that mitigated its addictiveness somewhat. we were wholly beholden to whatever happened to be on! if we didn’t like any of it we were obligated to go do something else!
