So you CAN get reparations you just have to be a reactionary white person who tries to overthrow the government because black votes shouldn’t count

Watching a series of former Confederate states rush to eliminate any vestige of black representation in the House pretty much answers the question whether the Voting Rights Act was still necessary.

Come on then, and remove him.

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

Good morning, Cicely! This is Chris in the Morning coming at you on KBHR 570AM. The thermometer is reading a balmy minus 20 this morning! So, throw a log on the fire and get your coffee brewing, kids. This morning's sermon is about 'missing teeth' - just go with me here...🧵1/7

I listened to the post-SOTU address analysis from @podsaveamerica.crooked.com this morning on my run. And man, oh man, I could NOT disagree with Tommy Vietor's take on the US hockey team's appearance last night more...

Deep breaths @kairyssdal.bsky.social , deep breaths....

Here’s the moment the first ICE agent goes for his gun. Note that Alex Pretti is on his knees with three ICE thugs on his head. This is an execution.

From 0.09 seconds until 0.13 seconds in the video he is standing directly in front of the car. Good had 4 seconds to run him over if that was her intent. Not only does this show that he wasn't adhering to safe practice in NOT putting himself in danger, but it proves she had no intent to run him over

not saying it can't get worse but this week really feels like a straightforward depiction of what worst-case 'post truth' information apocalypse ppl were warning of in the late 2010s

Trump officials celebrated with cake after slashing aid. Then people died of cholera. [via @propublica.org]

Wake Up Dead Man is an absolute masterpiece. @rianjohnson.bsky.social is at the top of his game as a writer and director. We need more Andrew Lloyd Weber-obsessed Benoit Blanc!!!

A tiny trial in New York has shown that personalized mRNA vaccines can provoke massive, lasting immune responses against pancreatic cancer, even as sweeping federal cuts now threaten the fragile labs required to produce them. theintellectualistofficial.substack.com/p/a-breakthr...

Temu Vecna never saw a killing of brown people he couldn’t endorse

It's wild but not surprising that last week the White House was leaning into "these seditious Democrats dared suggest that troops were receiving illegal orders!!!" and this week they are scrambling to figure out who to blame for issuing illegal orders.

While US venture capitalists were buying monkey jpegs, and DOGE coins, and figuring out how to get Black women fired, and tweeting about white birthrates, and trying to mandate which bathroom trans kids should use, China was making progress on climate change and taking the lead in a real industry.

It's going to be an absolute joy watching our first female President, whomever she may be, bulldoze Trump's ballroom and put in its place a music room, or library or arboretum, or any other damn thing she wants.

The Trump shit video is basically this, but I will reiterate that if a Dem is critical of conservative voters it’s a generational scandal and when Republican pols literally post themselves shitting on their opposition virtually the entire elite politics and media class treats it as fine and normal

Among George Santos’ many scams was a “pet charity” where he swindled people out of money who needed it for medical care for their pets. This is who Trump just pardoned www.nytimes.com/2023/02/09/n...

Historian here No Kings is the most American thing you could say and the people opposing it simply don’t believe in our republic or constitutional democracy.

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 74 out of the last 86 days. They have worked 12 days in 3 months. Epstein Shutdown.

This is what every Dem should be saying. This this this.

You know what was weird last week? I didn’t see anyone fired for quoting words actually spoken by Jane Goodall.

Analysis | To get himself back on the air, Jimmy Kimmel must call for the execution of homeless people.

Ta-nehisi Coates asks the question - nearly directly to @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social - "If you would look away from the words of Charlie Kirk, from what else would you look away?"

So the white dude from Fox News said we should kill mentally ill homeless folks, he apologizes and they’re good; @karenattiah.bsky.social posts an accurate quote and says she’s not in the mood to mourn and gets bounced.

Q: Are there any other advantages to using ChatPerson over chatbots? A: Each of our server centers (human beings) only consumes enough water and electricity to sustain a human body in a modest studio apartment.

Head of NASA Sean Duffy intends to destroy a satellite that collects key data on carbon dioxide and plant health, by causing it to burn up in the atmosphere. The U.S. Dept of Agriculture and private agriculture firms use the data to forecast crop yield, drought conditions and more.

The deeply shitty people running the country now are nothing new; there have always been deeply shitty people like them in America. Although in the past the media, academia, and even Congress were slower to surrender to them.

It is fucking insane that we had a decade of people complaining about the dangers of cancel culture, and now literally hundreds of thousands of people are being purged from government jobs for ideological reasons, but that is not cancel culture.

Paramount - which claimed cancelling Colbert was a purely financial decision - can now choose to lose $1.5 billion or else suffer Trey Parker & Matt Stone's new South Park episode which includes this parody of White House art.

As a long-term MAGA person I can excuse narcissism, mediocrity, childishness, dishonesty, racism, sexism, lawbreaking, dementia, incoherence, and blatant hostility to the constitution and American values, but I draw the line when I decide to stop ignoring that he’s also always clearly been a pedo

we are currently watching an entire political party run cover for the most notorious sex trafficking ring in modern human history

I guess Evenepoel just doesn’t have the balls to race. #TdF #tourdefrance

yeah okay let’s talk him into running for President
