Suzanne Vega releases “Luka” 39 years ago this weekend. She said she once received a fan letter about it: “Dear Suzanne, Luka is the most compelling piece of music I’ve heard in a long time. There are no words 2 tell U all the things I feel when I hear it. I thank God 4 U, Prince”

Congratulations on your wedding Don Jr. Sorry for distracting your Dad with this important work.

Here’s a thought — Maybe these people don’t deserve to be handsomely rewarded? (From NPR)

These data centers do not produce jobs. These centers raise electricity rates and create electric shortages. These centers use tens of millions of gallons of water and discharge toxic water, causing environmental pollution and noise pollution. Why are they getting billion-dollar tax breaks???

Congratulations America your government just proved it can strong-arm and squash free speech when it hurts their fee-fees. Where is that right wing righteous rage now.

White Christian men say shit like this and somehow Black people are the evil ones for not caring when bad things happen to them. The KKK were white Christian protestant men who took glee in burning crosses, raping, and hanging people after sunday service 🤷🏿‍♂️

How is this farce of a do nothing government still going on? It's as if the system that protects incompetent white men and women in power was built to protect incompetent white men and women to stay in power.

Why this GOP Congress sucks...

@jonrademacher.bsky.social “It should be explicitly clear from this presidential administration that we can no longer simply rely on decency from politicians and oligarchs. There MUST be laws that force them to be decent or they simply won't be.”

What the absolute f*ck!

MacFarlane: I'm filling a notebook with misinformation spreading about January 6th today. The idea that these cases were wrongful, no case was overturned, not a one on appeal. And lots of people appealed. They had a 100% success rate for juries at trial.

BREAKING: Minnesota has INDICTED ICE officer Christian Castro in the non-fatal shooting of Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis. 4 counts of assault & 1 count of lying. This is the SECOND ICE officer charged by the Hennepin County DA. No charges yet for the murders of Good and Pretti. www.pbs.org/newshour/nat...

BREAKING: After around two hours of deliberation, the jury has reached a unanimous verdict in Musk v. Altman, the tech trial of the year. The group found that two claims were barred by the statute of limitations, and a third failed thanks to the dismissal of one of these. Read more: buff.ly/3D1hQAV

People cant afford food and housing and this asshole wis creating a slush fund for his billionaire friends!🤬

Also fuck Mike Johnson for saying politicians can't survive off $175k salaries but they expect citizens to live off $40k or $7.25 an hour. Fuck all the way off

Easily, the most corrupt president in history:

He was referring to you, you dimwitted, arrogant psychopath. GD you're dumb.

They had contracts for prison labor at these camps?? Before they even bought them? www.projectsaltbox.com/p/contracts-...

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

BURGUM: When the sun goes down, solar produces zero electricity HUFFMAN: I want to enter into the record this amazing new technology that apparently the secretary is unaware of -- it's a battery

America didn’t turn ugly because he became President. No. He became President because America was already this ugly. That’s the uncomfortable truth nobody wants to admit.

John Oliver on the Supreme Court: "It was a 6-3 decision in the case of White People vs. Everybody — and you’ll never guess who they ruled in favor of”

“The announcement comes amid ongoing criticism the president and his family are improperly profiting from his second term in the White House...” Endless corruption. www.mediaite.com/media/news/e...

Residents in Fayette County, Georgia noticed their water pressure was unusually low. Turns out that a data center 20 miles away had been drawing 30 million gallons of water in secret through connections the county didn't know existed. Is it any wonder why so many are opposed to data centers?

A Slam Dunk for Newsom….

Trump slashed funding for researching infectious diseases like hantavirus and made deep staffing cuts to the CDC and other agencies that coordinate outbreak response. His disastrous decision-making cost us during the last pandemic — and continues to put us in danger. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/07/h...

You shoukd be ashamed @forbes.com All of your reporting is just telling the poors how to spend less on food and vacations. Why don't you do some actual hard hitting reporting on how we can fix this damned mess trump and his cronies( like you)have thrown us into! Stop pretending this shit is normal!

State supreme court justices play a critical role in defending your rights and freedoms, which is why the election happening in Georgia right now is so important. Make sure you have a plan to vote for Jen Jordan and Miracle Rankin.

Executives for the whirlpool maker cited a “rapid deterioration” in economic conditions during the Iran war.

Actually I don't find it funny at all. We've wasted $72 billion, seriously made life harder and more expensive for those in our country that can least afford it. It's a debacle that infuriates me.

While regular Americans struggle with the price of gas, groceries, car payments, utilities, and mortgages, Cracky the Clown is posting gold statues of himself. Calling him out of touch is the understatement of the decade.

😡

If racism is no longer a problem, then why are all the states rushing to redistrict after the Supreme Court ruling all in The South? And all the people pushing to redistrict all White? 🤔🤔🤔

Protesters are singing civil rights songs in the Tennessee Senate State and Local Government Committee.

Trump brags that he's the "only president to take a cognitive test." Any guess as to why that is?

Lambert: The Strait of Hormuz is going to be open and we’re going to control it. Mockler: In two weeks? Lambert: It doesn’t matter if it’s two weeks or two months. Mockler: It does actually matter because economists are saying if it's closed for a few more months, we're going into a recession

Which is the backwards country now, United States?

I mean. She was ONE HUNDRED PERCENT CORRECT. I will never forget this debate and these words. Almost ten years ago, and this stupid nation of ours.. chose NOT to believe her. 76 million voted for the puppet 🤬 youtu.be/-qIN1-z_JqQ?...

Reminder that the Trump regime is still blowing up suspected “drug boats” — killing 185 people since September. But no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're taking Trump's word for it. This is murder. We must not lose sight of this lawlessness.

Not a great sign that President Trump’s judicial nominees seem incapable of stating that President Trump is ineligible to run for a third term.

WE ARE UNDER-REACTING‼️ If you needed any more proof that the Voting Rights Act is still necessary, just look at what’s happening right now: red states rushing to wipe out Black representation the second SCOTUS gutted it. What went down this week is going to have devastating consequences. 🧵

In the 90s, Harrison Ford was the right age to play the president in movies. In 2026, Harrison Ford is the right age to play the president in movies.

The gloves are off. SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act, but they didn't realize they just woke a sleeping giant. Joe Walsh says Dems are so fired up, we’d crawl over broken glass to vote. The GOP isn’t ready for this level of determination. Are YOU ready?
