They’re just people you psycho

For most of the last 45 years, employers (enabled by policy makers) have suppressed the wages of working people so that corporate managers and owners could claim an ever-larger share of the income generated by what workers produce. 6/

This is the way

There are specific reasons Trumpists want war on Venezuela, but there‘s a generic one: they crave power to make war on anyone, any time, for completely fabricated reasons, and then to use the guise of war to increase violence and repression everywhere, including home. They are lawless bestial scum.

If Trump does go through with his threatened invasion of Venezuela without Congressional approval, that should absolutely be grounds for immediate impeachment proceedings. We would need mass, popular mobilization calling for his removal from office. It has to be a red line.

We warned this idiot that this would only put troops in harm’s way. “The National Guard has been deployed as part of the White House’s political attacks on cities run by Democrats, and the Guard members are vulnerable because politics is not a military mission.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

They were always going to unleash full-on ethnic cleansing. They were just waiting for a plausible excuse.

No one shld lose sight of the fact that the Guard was only in DC as part of an extended political messaging stunt. The shooter is guilty for the attacks/carnage. Donald Trump is responsible for them. This is the collateral damage of Trump abusing his powers as President.

Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell. Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood. She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Oh my God

Yup.

Two miles of ice core on the shelf at our national ice core facility in Lakewood, Colorado. The WAIS Divide core from West Antarctica is a 3400m long (deepest US core, 2nd deepest ice core ever) 68,000 year old record of high resolution climate.

like, this is the moment to STOP the fucking politics of hating government spending and make the fucking case that we can in fact make our lives better if we stop obsessing about spending an extra fucking nickel.

the lesson from doge is not that we need to cut waste fraud and abuse better. the lesson is that GOVERNMENT FULFILLS MANY VERY IMPORTANT FUNCTIONS and that among those is SAVING THE LIVES OF MILLIONS OF CHILDREN.

The main thing that Republicans learned from the *decades* they spent investigating the Clintons is not that such investigations are expensive and futile, but rather that the investigations themselves are punishments and that investigate enough an low information voters will assume something happend

The Trump administration inherited an economy that the Economist called "the envy of the world" in a cover story a week before the election and easily could've coasted on that success (again) but instead they set it on fire.

NO ONE WANTS WAR ON VENEZUELA

“It’s even beyond what George W. Bush did to lie to America into war against Iraq. The lies here are beyond the realm of parody, with the regime pretending that this has to do with Venezuelan drug trafficking to America, which simply does not exist.” open.substack.com/pub/thecause...

these people basically just take luxury government jets and go to fancy events like make a wish kids while their minions flashbang your elderly neighbors

It remains insane to me that DOGE was treated at the time as an impressive shock and awe accomplishment - “you can’t deny he’s getting stuff done!” - and then instantly memory holed by the press once if became clear it was a total failure by every possible standard including Musk’s own

This is the way

Megyn Kelly Anxiously Waits For Everyone Else To Start Condoning Pedophilia Too

Breaking character: I am open to the idea the media's coverage of Biden's age and mental acuity was fair or perhaps not even tough enough. But the fact that it was so much tougher than the coverage of Trump's (more severe) mental decline is damning and I can't see how anyone could argue otherwise.

Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols. The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

Excellent piece detailing the step by step partisan maneuvering of John Roberts to make the court’s rulings become a heads we win, tails you lose farce for the benefit of Republicans preferred policies.

It's a censorship engine designed to promote ideas that Elon Musk likes and suppress ideas that Elon Musk does not like. I really don't get why this evident fact - that Musk openly admits! - is so hard for so many people to understand

Democrats are responsible for every intemperate comment from every random anonymous internet communist. But the Republican president who is at the center of a cult of personality that has consumed the entire GOP can call for mass executions, and somehow this isn’t laid at the feet of Republicans.

Abolish ICE Prosecute ICE

And they’ve redefined “criminal” down to “was given a warning in 1996 for a burned out taillight”.

Home invasions. Child sex crimes. Homicide. Just a couple things that some of the 1500+ January 6 defendants have been convicted of since Trump released them back onto our streets. The GOP isn't the party of law and order. They're the party of lawlessness and violence.

This is true, in the sense that it is a web of very real scandals reactionaries will try to claim are fake through the power of repetitive bare assertion

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community. The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution. Don’t give up the ship.

Hours after Border Patrol swept through Charlotte, protesters filled uptown with courage, not fear. They marched peacefully, stood united, and refused to be intimidated. Charlotte showed up. And it showed strength.💪

Texas' abortion ban has killed another woman. Let's be very clear: Republicans are killing women. Democrats need to start calling them murderers loudly and often. www.propublica.org/article/texa...

40 years ago today the world was introduced to a small boy and his best friend. Happy birthday Calvin & Hobbes.

Same here. The Iraq War and specifically the overwhelming media campaign to sell it flipped a switch. It made me seek out sources that refused the narrative. Jon Stewart, Olberman, Democracy Now, Air America, the early blogs like Atrios and Digby (both of which I still read!)

He escaped the German Nazis but is now held by the American Nazis

The AI bubble may be about to bust. Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock. We all need to say this very clearly: NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH! Expropriate their asses instead. They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet. They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

1. Scandal politics win elections pretty often. 2. THIS scandal divides the GOP more than affordability or really anything. 3. If Dems want to win the fight (pry the files loose, rather than give up after Trump says no) they need to make a referendum out of it. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...

Yes yes yes

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..." Prosecutors have not filed a *single* criminal charge against anyone arrested that night: www.propublica.org/article/chic...

NEW: President Trump mentioned over 1,000 times in Epstein files, more than anyone else. (gift) www.miamiherald.com/article31290...

I am in love with the idea of someone who earnestly believes the trump team in 2025 comes at things with actual objectives of national security/economic policy and not as a back door for yet another series of briberies and self dealing corruption, something that has not been demonstrated to date.

Right, everyone predicted he would need to order a military action today to distract from the Epstein emails. The “Department of War” is delivering
