I remember when Jack Smith was appointed and I thought, yes, this guy is a no-nonsense guy who gets fucking result. trump's goose is cooked. I was clearly wrong about the result (thanks, SCOTUS), but not about his character. If he testifies before Congress, shit's gonna get real

I mean, sure, trump is a piece of shit for tearing down the east wing of the White House, but let's also not be too precious about the institutions that have allowed him to get to this position of unchallenged power in the first (and second) place

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Every goddamned reporter should be holding people's feet to the fire like this, regardless of party or governmental position

For various reasons, I've missed every major protest this year, and I thought I would have to miss No Kings II as we are visiting some relatives and they made other plans for us. But those plans fell through and I'll be out there with a bunch of like-minded Bend, Oregonians

Ronald Reagan was such a piece of shit

Apparently, it's Black Cat Awareness Month? Anyway, here's Ebon (and his sister, Penny, in the blurry bg)!

"It's spooky season, y'all!"--Ebon

This is fucking heartbreaking. Fuck ICE to death

Man, I thought antifa was a concept and not an organization, but now that the DOJ is going after them, I have to assume they just never wanted me. That fucking hurts

Be like Jane Goodall and not like the people she'd send away on an eye-rollingly phallic rocket ship

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Regardless of what the law says, these scumbags are violating basic human decency. They should be dealt with accordingly

You heard it hear first--trump's team assassinated Charlie Kirk because the former was jealous of the latter's popularity. And to try to start the civil war, of course

I'm pretty fucking jaded about the bullshit that trump and his pathetic sycophants, but Hegseth's speech today...ho boy, that's some really fucking deranged, apocalyptic garbage. I'd wish for a max exodus of the armed forces, but fuck, that would leave the monsters in charge of the guns

I'm torn on this. On the one hand, we have to have ways to make sure that driverless cars are safe. But on the other hand, it was a u-turn at night and nobody got hurt, so who fucking cares about a moving violation that probably shouldn't even be in place?

This picture doesn't do it justice, but this cloud formation at sunset was really pretty tonight

Thin Lizzy: Tonight, there's gonna be a jailbreak/somewhere in the town. The town: Maybe, I don't know, at the jail, perhaps?

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

Starting to think that whomever does QC at Cap'n Crunch is bad at his job. I've never NOT seen OOPS! All Berries

Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results. So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

The full 28-minute Jimmy Kimmel monologue. Please share.

Gogglebox but it's trump watching Jimmy Kimmel tomorrow night

Apparently, Charlie Kkkirk's memorial is today? Any sick network that televises this should also be boycotted

Every meme ever, but the text is replaced by the word "EPSTEIN"

I love Penny's cute little ear tufts

Every meme ever, but the text is replaced by the word "EPSTEIN"

I had a crying jag today, ostensibly about grandparents loving their grandkids SOOOOO much, and grandchildren really never quite appreciating it, based on a couple bits of media. And then it hit me. I wasn't crying over that--I was crying over the fascist nightmare that our government has become

I don't know if I care to live in a world where the brightest star in late night is Jimmy Fallon

The eponymous Love Shack is described as a "funky little shack," and today I realized, of *course* it's funky--it's a fucking sex hut

The thing about firing Jimmy Kimmel is Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein, etc

Larry Flint once published a joke that hurt Jerry Falwell's feelings. Falwell sued, and Flint spent millions of dollars defending himself in court. It would have been cheaper to pay Falwell off, but it was the principle of the thing. Disney doesn't have the courage of a two-bit pornographer

I can't believe that the least funny of all, Jimmy Fallon, will remain on the air

This should scare the sh#t out of us all. She is not joking.

This country sucks so much right now

US President back-pedalling furiously after his administration treated some innocent hard-working Koreans like they were innocent hard-working Latinos.

Sure, sure, sure, fuck Charlie Kirk. But also, fuck Ronald Reagan, fuck Pat Robertson, fuck Strom Thurmond, fuck Richard Nixon, fuck Rush Limbaugh, fuck Pat Buchanan, fuck James Dobson, etc. If you're putting these levels of evil into the world, idgaf how recently or tragically you died, fuck you

Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin? TRUMP: I'm not familiar. The who?

🧵 This is getting lost in the Epstein/Charlie Kirk of it all, and it shouldn't. We treated ALLIES like this. ICE is only a rogue agency in so much as they are doing the bidding of the rogue executive branch. Meanwhile, the legislative and judicial branches

It's really unfortunate that "sic temper tyrannis" was most famously used by someone who killed a (relative) progressive and well-loved (today) president, because it would be a great phrase to use these days

Why is no one pointing out that he also pleaded the Fifth Amendment hundreds of times in order to avoid incriminating himself before Congress over January 6? Isn't that a pretty significant fact, given that January 6 was a violent armed rebellion intended to overthrow our democracy?

If the person who killed Charlie Kirk was a conservative, there can be no mercy for that species any longer. We've already tolerated far too much from those creatures.

"I'll see you in Valhalla!" THESE ARE UNSERIOUS PEOPLE

1. In the immediate aftermath of Charlie Kirk's shooting, the WSJ laundered claims that "transgender symbols" were found with the shooter's gun. Now, a press conference reveals that NO such symbols were found. WSJ owes a full retraction and apology. Subscribe to support our journalism.

What a dirtbag. Republicans really do think differently than we do. And I don't mean different good

The killing of Charlie Kirk may signify the start of a Civil War. But it's a Civil War within MAGA
