The taxpayer-funded payout for cop beaters is in jeopardy My "DAY AHEAD" editorial note Lots of news in here: open.substack.com/pub/macfarla...

“When I asked an Uzbek friend to compare Trump to the Central Asian leaders, he replied: “Dictatorship is something that was done to us. But you – you’re doing this voluntarily?”

He promised to release his tax returns as soon as there were no more audits pending, and now there are no more audits pending.

Here’s the video. Many thanks @repstansbury.bsky.social for your allyship and advocacy!

@nationals.com Is first pitch delayed due to to storm coming through?

this is a masterpiece

It all was so much more fragile than we realized and whatnot.

The most corrupt act by a president in American history. From this day forward Trump can sue his administration and order his government to pay up

Trump didn’t just pardon his followers who stormed the U.S. Capitol. He’s now set them up for payments through a slush fund he created to reward his allies—out of your tax dollars. You could not make this up.

i'm going to avoid downtown for a few days because these freaks now invariably bring some weird medieval disease with them when they visit DC

Oh right, we're in Hudson News now! Supplement your $7 bottle of water with The Onion.

I wish members of DC Council would stop trying to appease the fascists by sacrificing our youth 🙄 @cmcharlesallen.bsky.social @cmbrookepinto.bsky.social @chmnmendelson.bsky.social @anitabondsdc.bsky.social @cmchenderson.bsky.social @cmfrumin.bsky.social etc #FreeDC

what really gets me about the Virginia Supreme Court redistricting decision today is that 1.6 million Virginia voters approved this map! you're telling me legislatures can freely impose racist maps on the public, but the public can't choose fair maps for itself? ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

I wish people with larger platforms than mine wouldn’t keep saying the National Guard in DC aren’t doing anything other than wasting money. They are causing harm in many ways. If you don’t see that, yours is a very narrow & privileged view. #FreeDC #DC

Virginia should just proceed with the map anyway tbqh 🤷🏾‍♀️ reinstate the map their damn selves

The reason people keep doing crimes for Trump is that you get rewarded for doing them, congratulations to Colorado's Dem governor for making sure we get more people trying to overturn elections on his behalf bsky.app/profile/kyle...

Tariff threat coming in 3, 2…

I used to feel a little bad that The Onion is about to surpass WaPo in print subs and stopped promoting the membership as a direct foil until today they came out with “Do POOR BABIES deserve DIAPERS???” so therefore

Trans rights are human rights and this administration is an abomination of hate and greed.

Hey man, you need to stop taking my fucking videos, cropping off my handle, splicing it with other clips (which you presumably also stole), and then slapping your name on it. It’s one thing to download my TikTok and post it instead of just sharing here, but we’re hitting lawyer territory here.

This guy steals other people's hard work. This is @noturtlesoup17.bsky.social videos.

DC has been occupied for 271 days #FreeDC

The bar is low, but this statement at least promises a fight unlike Spanberger and Virginia Democrats' posts.

This. Create new legal pathways. Make up rules. Interpret the law and justify it and sell it and do it. Do it anyway.

Ohio Republicans overruled their state Supreme Court to implement their gerrymander anyway: Time for Virginia Democrats to do the same.

Four years after lambasting the Biden administration, GOP lawmakers are urging voters to be patient as gas prices climb over $4.50 per gallon. My latest supercut for @ms.now w/ Jack Fitzpatrick www.ms.now/news/republi...

At this point, I think he is just trolling us.

WE DEMAND A NATION THAT PUTS WORKERS OVER BILLIONAIRES! People are taking action today at over 4,000 May Day events across the country. #MayDay ❌👑

BREAKING: Activists have shut down multiple intersections throughout downtown Washington DC in opposition to Trump's attacks on workers, DC Home Rule, climate, and international peace. The actions kick off #MayDay events across the country.

Today is a reminder that except for a brief period running roughly from Brown v. Board to Roe v. Wade, throughout its history the Supreme Court has been a reactionary force protecting the wealth of the wealthy and the power of the powerful, almost always hostile to equality and justice.

this is america. you could find yourself within 100yds of a shooting at any time, in any place. school, the grocery store, a movie theater, a block party, a public park… it happens to regular people every day. but this week we’ll get 50+ weepy op-eds because it happened to the guys who write op-eds

Really the only piece worth reading regarding the WHCA chaos comes from @willbunch.bsky.social. Spot on.

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

There's a war on for your mind. theonion.info

Wishing you and yours a very merry Confederate Surrender Day.

Not enough people get this. Gerry Baker does. The civilization that Trump is threatening is our own.

imagining the funniest possible scenario: someone gave trump fake nuclear codes. someone with incredible foresight took a gamble & he has a toy nuclear football. it’s just a foam football painted red with NUKES written on it in sharpie and some american flag stickers.

anyone attending the white house correspondents dinner is a fucking traitor

Me, joking: I can’t believe we chose “destroying the economy” and “losing wars” over “being nice to trans people occasionally” Conservatives, dead serious: it was a tough choice, but I’m glad we picked “destroying the economy” and “losing wars” over “being nice to trans people occasionally”
