Don't hold back now.

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

I’m so fucking mad. Just watched a youtube video on the top 10 most iconic animal sounds that ranked ‘oink’ higher than ‘quack’. What the fuck

People who are freaking out about Bannon’s Nazi salute at CPAC haven’t been paying attention—it’s been the official salute of MAGA for a long time.

Listen up.

I'm dumb. I can't figure out how to end world hunger. But I do promise that I will continue to change healthcare in this country and make it more affordable, possibly setting a path towards Universal Healthcare.

So like when does the Golden Age start

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

He nails it.

When Trump promised to make prices go down I guess he meant stock prices

This hits hard.

well, first, I woke up! Took care of my personal stuff, and, then, filled a red ceramic bowl --- made in Germany --- with all-American Special K cereal. Bowl in hand, I made my way to my computer and started researching! Yes, all over the internet, I searched ....

I kept changing my mind which Carter cartoon i should go with. Here's all three.

As America is being torn apart, weakened, and sold to the highest bidder, I think about all the folks who told me, "Well, it won't be THAT bad" and "We survived 4 years of Trump..." and "The systems will hold." All of them are privileged and well-off. Alas. We're all in it now.

Musk was angry at OpenAI, so he said AI would destroy humanity. Then he founded xAI and sued OpenAI—and said AI might not be so bad. Now he wants his AI to take over DC, so he’s killing all AI safety. The man is knowingly betraying his _species_. He’ll certainly have no problem betraying America.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: The message I’m hearing from people across Canada is this: they’re not afraid of you. They know you’re a convicted felon. They know that the people you’re bringing in to run your, let’s call it an “organization” rather than a government, are grifters, thieves, and thugs.

"I think this is a 'Red Alert' moment." @chrismurphyct.bsky.social reacts to Trump threatening more lawsuits against the press.

Next year, the President will be pardoning dogs to save them from his Secretary of Homeland Security

Happy Thanksgiving, my friend!

Facts matter. Science saves lives. Anti-science destroys them.

Good morning from JD Vance’s research library on Section 4 of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment

Beware the Day One dictator.

Ironically, much of the "most needy" voted for HIM .... they will get what THEY deserve, but, sadly, those who voted for democracy will ALSO get what they did NOT vote for ...

They are offsetting the cost of lower taxes for billionaires by slashing programs for the most needy. So much for Christian charity toward the poor.

PARDON HUNTER. 🙏

Morning, friends. Time to dig back in to all of this. Democracy matters.

Gaetz is rapist and a criminal and he cannot be our Attorney General.

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” - James Baldwin

This is a proposed law targeting exactly one person: Incoming trans Congresswoman Sarah McBride of Delaware. Nancy Mace is a transphobic, hateful troll who voted with teen rapist Matt Gaetz to depose her own party’s speaker, but the bathrooms. That’s where she’s focused.

@jenpsaki.bsky.social: “Winning the election doesn't mean Trump has a mandate to do whatever he wants. It certainly doesn't mean he has a mandate to force through Matt Gaetz as Attorney General or Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense. It actually means the opposite.”

Thanks for noticing.

MSNBC legal analyst Andrew Weissmann on Speaker Johnson saying it's not "appropriate" to release House Ethics report on Matt Gaetz: “Obviously the public has a right to know... Remember, there's no right to be Attorney General... transparency is in order."

Former HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius on the potential impact of RFK Jr.: "Putting up fake science against real science, and saying to people, ‘Just make up your own minds.’ I think could lead to disaster."

Canadians should read Project 2025, I did. It took me days to recover. Read it and remember Harper and Poilievre endorsed it.
