bingo run him to ground

This is the world that people like JK Rowling, Matt Walsh, and Jesse Singal work every day to achieve

Crockett: That’s why they hired everybody from Fox because all they’re trying to do is put on a show.. I want us to refocus our attention on the American people and stop demonizing every person that ends up in ICE custody… *Applause* Van Drew: *bangs gavel*

"I want people to be safe and protected. I want to live on the right side of history. I am an immigrant. My parents are refugees from Chile. We fled a dictatorship and I was privileged enough to grow up in the United States after asylum in Denmark. I stand by those protections, always."

On my new EP I covered the IWW anthem, but changed it to a melancholy tone to lament the decline of unions in the United States. So grateful to have been joined by my friends on this one, including @beastmstrgeneral.bsky.social and @godofsmokeandfire.bsky.social youtu.be/b9mNKGR8S64?...

And there you have it.

I live in one of the most conservative cities in Utah. If this can happen here, you know shit needs to change.

Two former Wells Fargo executives were fined $8.5M by the Biden administration for covering up the bank's infamous fake account scandal. Trump just slashed those fines to a paltry $150,000 after Wells Fargo gave $1M to his inauguration. See how this works?

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

I'm taking May 1st off. I'm a hiring manager so I can't be part of a union, but I'll represent my dad. IBEW local 57.

In Deerfield, IL tonight for a District 109 school board meeting. A small crew from Moms for Liberty is here, supposedly to give public comment. Community members in support of trans students also here in large numbers with many signs and flags.

When I tell students about the realities of pre-New Deal industrial life — where it was so commonplace for workers to die on the job that a Pittsburgh newspaper once celebrated that “only” 127 had died the previous month — they can’t believe it. That’s the world Trump wants us to return to

I did not make this and don't know who did, all the same - lmao

james surowiecki has discovered where the completely fabricated trump tariff rate has come from for each country "...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."

Who would have thought that David Duke would have done better going forward if he had a time machine rather than going to the past.

If you're a US historian who'd like to do this but are unfamiliar with the process, hit me up & I'll help you identify your target publication, write your pitch, & get your piece into that sweet, sweet 600-750 word range. (Pro bono in case that wasn't clear). It's my literal job & I'd love to help.

GOP Rep. Bacon on the Trump administration's handling of SignalGate: "The credibility is suspect when you cannot even admit that this was wrong."

Kendall Brown, Oklahoma constituent fighting for her husband (active duty soldier currently in Yemen), fighting for herself and her country… Great video showing how it’s done! @kendallyb.bsky.social

If you're scooping up students off the street for writing op-eds, you're secret police, and should be treated accordingly.

“Wait guys, P. Hegseth is typing…”

Shout out to Jeffrey Goldberg for reporting on this now instead of waiting two years to put it in a book.

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

every college, corporate, and nonprofit president right now

They're terrorizing our federal employees in real ways and the impact is devastating for all of us. I spoke to a VA employee and FBI Agent about what they're experiencing and it will shock you. This is the most important thing I've written. Please read and share. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

'Tasks like walking' is straight-up funny. "What's the use case here, Bob?" "Uh.... walking around?" Hello Mr. Salesguy I am a consumer and my household needs more walking, do you have anything that might do that while simultaneously being a major fire risk.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

Did the founders contemplate autopens when creating the pardon power? Absolutely can’t wait to hear your thoughts

My walk-up music for the next revolution will be "Calm Like a Bomb" #RATM

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

I would love to see a remake of Les Miserable where Jean Valjean, Marius, Et al., are armed with AR-15s. Those barricades would be more useful a .556 backup. They could update it to fit America today.

UPDATE on Mahmoud Khalil from his lawyers and his wife: "Today I spoke to Mahmoud and he is healthy and his spirits are undaunted by his predicament." (Legal team now includes ACLU, CCR.)

I've seen pictures of JD Vance when he was in high school, and I can guarantee he hates Star Wars because every bully would have called him Ewok.

I'm 54 and have lived in Utah my whole life. I've always thought Canadians are our brothers up north. Unfortunately for America the degens are somehow running the show. We have some shit to sort out down here. P.S. Letterkenny should be on everyone's playlist. #Canada

Setting aside the incredibly dangerous and fascist aspect of this, is there actual evidence that Khalil was a “Hamas supporter”? Or is the standard for a green-card holder being sent to a secret location and possibly deported just “critical of Israel”?

Rage Against the Machine is my favorite band and has been since the early '90s. Their music is more relevant today than ever #RATM

After yesterday's events in the White House, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway's largest marine fuel companies, appears to have announced that it will no longer refuel American Navy vessels. Haltbakk has called on other European companies to refuse service to American forces.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

My dad died last week. My mom had to go in to schedule an appointment for April. Just to get benefits promised to her. Everyone that has to show up for a job will be negatively affected by Musk and Trump. I hate every last one of you that voted for this.

Every Democrat should be telling this story.

CDC source: “We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff. They are calling this ‘Phase 1’.”

My dad died this morning. IBEW Local 57. He was union through and through. He died cursing the Utah legislature for removing union rights. My dad was born on a poor Idaho potato farm and was able to make a great life for us. Unions work #IBEW #unions

The interim US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, a FedSoc member and former Scalia clerk, has done more to publicly expose the corruption of the Trump administration this week at greater personal cost than any elected official I can think of.

NEW: At least three more DOJ Public Integrity Unit senior officials have resigned after meeting with Emil Bove on the Eric Adams case. Five in Public Integrity overall. That’s six officials who resigned, triple the number that happened during the Saturday Night Massacre.

I believe Trump wants to Jedi mind trick the American population that we lost World War I and that it only happened last week.

The AP should stop covering Trump events. Instead send those White House reporters out into the field to report on the harms and repercussions of his policies. The U.S. public never needed coverage of pseudo-events anyway.

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky
