When the president was calling all Somali immigrants "garbage" who "come from hell" and "contribute nothing" to America and therefore needed to go "back where they came from" did you ask him to "stop the rhetoric," Tom?

I wish Zohran could bring back Extratime

Trump accepting Machado's Nobel Peace Prize is a great insult to the FIFA Peace Prize committee

Pictured: Someone who actually won a Nobel Peace Prize

The Nobel Prize committee should announce the World Cup winner tomorrow

Also it’s remarkable how their alternative to health insurance subsidies is health insurance subsidies

Gio Savarese got into his sixth season in MLS before he was let go. Neville will enter his sixth MLS season next year. Savarese went to two MLS Cups and won a secondary trophy. Neville has never finished above 1.41 PPG. #RCTID

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

Portland, 2025 100%

Agreed. Look at Boise for an example.

Thank you for using your platform to stand up to the dreck that are currently in power.

There just isn't a set of laws that will hold if the president, the majority in both houses of Congress, and six votes on the supreme court want the president to be a dictator

Elon Musk granted $29 billion in additional shares, which is more than twice as much as all the US foreign aid spent on sub-Saharan Africa last year before Musk took his chainsaw to USAID. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/04/b...

pretty soon there’s just going to be skyhigh brambles around all the country’s entrances and ports with hastily-scrawled signs that say “here be monsters” and the sky ever frozen in a dark and morbid state

My immediate thoughts on the most monstrous, immoral piece of legislation I’ve ever voted on in the Senate. But I’m not done fighting. I know you aren’t either.

they don’t have the votes *yet*, at least, call your senators.

If this bill passes, our public lands will fall into the hands of fossil fuel interests.

This is a helluva letter

While our president has his North Korean-style parade, there will be protests across the country. This is when optics are crucial. To juxtapose large peaceful protests with the military playthings of a wannabe-be tough guy. Violent protests play into his narrative. Please. Do not do that.

Dating myself, but keep thinking there’s a Kent State feeling in the air—this shit is really real and we’re finally on our own. And brooding question is: what can possibly wind it back? What keeps the fires from raging all summer and longer?

These are the people that make America great 🇲🇽🇺🇸

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Time for the University of Montana to sign up? President Bodner, have you signed up yet?

In just three months, with no external shocks, economic forecasters have gone from predicting that the U.S. economy would continue to deliver ongoing growth, to predicting a quite weak (and possibly recessionary) economy.

YES! I yell about this all the time--someone says "there's no room for conservatives at universities" and I'm like, "let me introduce you to the business and engineering schools."

What did I write Thursday, about Van Hollen and Wilkinson? “Thursday was a day for seeing why standing up matters — and can make a difference.” www.lawdork.com/p/abrego-gar...

Whyyyyyyy are you still having him on?

Christian nationalism isn’t a Black problem. It isn’t a Muslin problem. It’s not an Atheist problem, Jewish problem, or immigrant problem. White Christian nationalism is a white-Christians-living-in-America-who-care-about-the-teachings-of-Jesus, problem. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/white-jesu...

I’ll never get over that all of this was avoidable and our kids could’ve had a better future had voters just made the obviously rational choice in November. It’s water under the bridge now. But what the fuck, people.

It is an expensive babysitter but generally pretty effective

And we are just two days in...

Not everyone can fight Trumpism and Trumpists directly. But remember this: kindness, decency, and fidelity to American values are defiance in the face of Trumpism. So be kind, decent, and faithful, particularly to the many kinds of people despised and attacked by Trumpists. That’s revolutionary./1

Pray. Stay strong. It's a cold day in America.

Excellent article on the impact of climate change on the LA fires. Nuanced and understandable. A rare and useful analysis. Angeles burns: What you need to know open.substack.com/pub/theclima...

Costco has a business model that works for investors, employees, customers, suppliers...they have intelligent management. The others are run by robber barons.

for what it will matter

LA fires are a good reminder that the only difference between me and any refugee is luck.

My message to Zuck

Talked with my brother today, works in the tar sands in Alberta. Four kids, 4 grandkids. He is hoping that the change in administrations in US and Canada will accelerate the oil production and keep him solvent...I fear we have created a society in which keeping a job means killing the future.

Hang in there, Kai. We need you.

A good example of refusing to comply in advance. Put in people who support the oppressed and are not afraid to stand up to power.
