Immodestly: Mainstream discourse blames the excesses of the right on liberals, the left, feminists, Black Lives Matter, affirmative action, environmental protection, and BIPOC and LGBTQ people. It's a way that the right is granted masculine prerogatives and the left feminine responsibilities...

An extraordinary, beautiful, and heartbreaking piece by writer & environmentalist Tatiana Schlossberg (Caroline Kennedy’s daughter). My prayers go out to her and her family. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Trump is a stochastic terrorism machine. "Slotkin told NBC News that she has received "100s & 100s, if not, you know, closer to 1,000 threats" since the video first picked up traction & then Trump suggested on Thursday that her message was "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!" 🧾 is.gd/T6VoMt

For four years, I’ve worked across the aisle to end stock trading in Congress.    Today’s hearing on our legislation in the House Administration Committee is a critical step. But the time for action is NOW. It is time for a vote on the House Floor, and for us to get this done!

decades of watching incredible women reporters be accused of this kind of bullshit while they struggle to get recognition for amazing work meanwhile this hack was actually doing it and being called a generational writing talent for it

Worth your time!

Lest we forget: Here Are All Of Marjorie Taylor Greene's January 6 Text Messages With Mark Meadows hunterwalker.substack.com/p/here-are-a...

“She’s an outrage entrepreneur.” 🎯

he never looks at JD that way

Everyone stop acting weird and shocked about MTG. She has been systematically distancing herself from the current GOP for months and months. She has a plan reform herself under a new image ON THE RIGHT that’s not part of a sinking ship. She’s not suddenly changing her tune! SHE’S AN OPPORTUNIST

NOT NOW, BIRD FLU

I believe Marjorie Taylor Greene, Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes and Candace Owens have the pulse of the modern MAGA movement going forward. You can laugh at them and dismiss them as cranks, but you have to pay attention to what they're selling. This is what comes after Trump.

If MTG is truly sorry and repentant, then she needs to work thru the steps in @theradr.bsky.social ‘s book “On Repentance and Repair”. Otherwise — it’s all show and political posturing and ambition IMO But I doubt her anti-semitism and disingenuousness would allow this to happen.

If y’all really start supporting MTG after all the shit she has done, I will burn this all down

lol

Mamdani getting Trump to back down & even *compliment* him costs Mamdani absolutely nothing (& indeed actually shows his skills) & probably also saves a lot of vulnerable ppl in this city a trememndous amount of pain if it means Trump is less inclined to act shitty towards us bc of this meeting

A health care industry rag featured a story on how hospitals want to use AI for nursing the day after the administration declares nursing degrees will no longer be considered professional degrees. So there’s the endgame folks. Same for public education.

House votes on dumbass resolution condemning socialism, meanwhile the DSA's Lisan al-Gaib rolls the truculent child brain president like a pair of socks

Here's an unpaywalled link to the article. archive.ph/d8NmT

Worth reading. The Trump regime is protecting what it perceives as Israel's interests by acting like a global mafia to undermine international law.

Our ability to critique the system & to identify all that is failing around us only the tip of the iceberg. Developing the skills to bypass the system, build community infrastructure & navigate messy dynamics/contentious relationships is the bulk of the work.

ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!” This is tyranny These kids are traumatized It was warrantless and no ID was shown.

Fall of Freedom starts today. Here’s NPR on the initiative www.npr.org/2025/11/21/n...

“Finitude capitalism has one advantage: it lays bare the deceitfulness of the neoliberal narrative. This pattern is not new…Once again, we are called to confront the role of sovereign corporations and the people that control them in public life.”

I keep thinking the *process* of researching is as important as what you discover. It forces you to consider what impacts and relates to what you are looking for and the context of what you find impacts its meaning. Knowledge is not a box of cereal that you can just grab a handful of. #KM

1) @washingtonpost.com reported Thursday on a controversial policy downgrading how nooses and swastikas are labeled in the Coast Guard. 2) Admin officials attacked The Post, falsely alleging the reporting of "fake crap." 3) The CG said it would review policy language. 4) The CG reversed course.

The President called for the murder of Congressional Democrats. Congressional Democrats should call for his immediate removal or resignation. Congressional Republicans should condemn his statements and call for him to recant them. It's the very least they should be doing!

Not that he cares about facts, but 92% of Medicaid recipients are working or fall within an exempt category, and thanks to the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act (🤮), immigrants generally have to wait 5 years to enroll in Medicaid. RFK Jr. is making shit up.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) says someone showed up to her D.C. office today and made white supremacist threats. Capitol Police had to intervene. This was hours after Trump said Democrats in Congress should be executed. "When leaders promote hate, hate shows up."

Abolish ICE. Deny all those who worked for them any honors or employment in government ever again.

What the ad does is remind servicemembers of their duty/loyalty to the Constitution, not to the person giving them orders. It is a subtle reorientation of their duty to higher principles. But for Trump and Hegseth, this is a problem 4/

Republicans argue that Democrats have some sort of derangement for believing Republicans blame absolutely everything on immigrants and here’s a government agency just posting it

He just wants someone *else* do to it.

it is not Perfect, but it is Good, i think, simply in terms of reducing suffering

with so much other stuff going on it doesn't often make headlines, but Florida has executed SEVENTEEN people so far this year, with the eighteenth set to be killed tonight.

When Border Patrol showed up across Charlotte, parents and neighbors rushed to Berryhill to meet kids at the bus stop. They stood watch, linked arms, and made one thing clear: if the city gets targeted, its children will not face it alone. This is what community looks like.💙

GO BIG RED!!! ❤️🏐❤️

Well this all makes more sense now, as opposed to the earlier announcement that all these actors were participating in this production
