Absolutely no one spends $350 million on a remodel to a house they plan on leaving in three years. No one!!!

Robin Williams' daughter has some quality thoughts on AI slop

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality. I don't know how to yell any louder.

I have never seen such a blistering rebuke of a President by a federal judge. He is telling us clearly to stand up for our liberty against a dictator. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com The silencing of Jimmy Kimmel, following an explicit threat by Brendan Carr, the head of ABC’s regulator, the F.C.C., “is the mask of ‘free speech’ coming off for good,” Michael Hirschorn writes.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Apropos of nothing, here's a thread of some Charlie Kirk highlights

Why are 16,000 fewer kids going to Hamilton’s libraries? | www.thespec.com/news/hamilto... Archive link: archive.ph/PEp5L #Hamont #libraries

Due to the challenges of intoxicated and disruptive adults on the first floor of Hamilton's Central Library, the HPL is making changes to the children's section. Usage is down 62 percent from 2019. Kids section will eventually be moved to a different floor #yhmcc thepublicrecord.ca/2025/05/hami...

BREAKING: The ACLU says the Trump administration has deported three U.S. citizen children.

Once you disregard the legal rights of immigrants, everything is on the table Today, they are arresting judges Tomorrow it could be Democratic members of Congress

ICE can enter anyone’s home, and abduct and deport them to a foreign prison indefinitely because the DOJ says they can ignore the 4th, 5th and 15th amendments. If there’s no due process or protections against illegal search and seizures, none of us are safe.

important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

1) Do something autocratic 2) Wait to see how people react 3) If they don't push back hard enough, carry on 4) If they do push back hard enough, "pause" it 5) Illegally consolidate more power 6) Repeat

I can't wait for all these people to go to prison for insider trading and stock manipulation.

Elbows up, Canada.

BREAKING: Trump's billionaire Commerce Secretary says that seniors won't care if they don't get their Social Security checks — and that anyone who does complain is a fraudster.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.

this stuff is happening across the country and even more intensively downstream of the veterans admin but it's happening in so many places at once and without any public notification that it's still only barely emerging in the news

Ask yourself: Why would anyone who wasn’t an asset of the Russian government do this? Why would any decent human being do this?

Just thinking about what the US looked like before the EPA existed

BREAKING: Job losses spiked a whopping 245% in February. This is higher than any month since July 2020 (the middle of pandemic) and the highest in any February since the Great Recession of 2009.

The great Jeff Douglas (aka Joe) has done it again. This is brilliant. Elbows up, Canada. youtu.be/_OzbmriDgQc?...

Draw your own conclusions, but Donald Trump is not behaving like a leader who expects democratic accountability for himself or his party next year or in 2028.
