Not to be THAT dictionary, but… It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’ It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’ It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’ It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’ It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

Why aren’t the Republicans working?

I'm thinking about doing some Tylenol.

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

Look, it’s Heroin and Adderall ganging up on Tylenol.

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

The Supreme Court made it easier for ICE to stop you for being brown. The Court sided with ICE, letting them continue targeting people based on race, language, where they are, or the kind of work they do. The ruling is a setback, but it’s not the end. Together we'll keep fighting.

The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121.

Every time I read an editorial in the Washington Post in which the geniuses over there predict how someone will act in office, I remember this.

Now, THIS I love. Making the best of a bad situation. R E S P E C T

California. Illinois. New York. Pennsylvania. Let’s roll.

U.S. Army vet George Retes was tear-gassed, dragged from his car, and held by ICE for 3 days; no lawyer, no calls, no reason. He’s a citizen. #AbolishICE #StateViolence #ICEWatch #HumanRights #Fascism #4R

Just for those who may be a little confused: This is how an American president should treat Putin.

Fwiw, I worked in DC when it was called the “murder capital of the world” (highest point on the graph). II investigated child abuse—unarmed and usually alone—in the most theoretically dangerous part of the city. It was during the crack epidemic. The violent crime was mainly between rival drug gangs.

On his decision to end $500M worth of research on mRNA vaccines, RFK Jr. said: “The the data show these vaccines fail to protect effectively against upper respiratory infections like COVID and flu”. These vaccines saved 3.2M lives in the U.S. He is running a disinformation op against Americans.

The most corrupt White House in history. Here is an account of what people are paying, directly to a PAC called MAGA Inc, in order to meet the president, get pardons, change policy www.nytimes.com/2025/08/02/u...

Hunter Biden has a point. And a quite colorful one.

Where do you think Trump got his makeup tips from?

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

The New York Times was more skeptical of the academic qualifications of a black woman who had secured tenure and become the president of Harvard than they were of a white man who washed out of a grad program with a massive scandal and then became a white nationalist troll.

NOT A CRIMINAL A veteran’s wife was arrested by ICE when she went for an immigration check-in. She was separated from her young children, even though she’s still nursing. I wonder who he voted for? That said, it’s odd he said “almost inhumane”. Being snatched from your newborn baby IS inhumane.

This is fucking insane.

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope. She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive. But the FDA recently denied its approval. Now, her health hangs in the balance. Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

There are not enough bible verses in the world to fix this man's broken soul.

Now that's a military parade I'd want to watch! #nokings #puppies

Trump doesn’t understand why everyone hates Putin today since the Soviet Union was our ally in WWII, but everyone likes Japan and Germany now. He says he can’t understand it and neither can Putin. Dumbest MF on the planet.

I'm proud I don't have Andrew Cuomo's record of corruption, scandal and disgrace. And the name is M-A-M-D-A-N-I.

A little more on RFK's new vaccine committee: Malone - claimed vaccines cause AIDS Kulldorff - promoted mass COVID infection Meissner - opposed vaccines and masks for kids Pebsworth - worked at antivax nonprofit Levi - FL Surgeon General cited his paper when recommending not to get COVID vax

Probably preaching to the choir here but, some data from the 1960s.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 63 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

The Trump regime’s crusade against the judiciary began long before the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan. The regime has been flouting and dismissing judges’ orders for weeks. Yet again, another striking parallel to Nazi Germany has emerged: Attorney General Pam Bondi is to the Trump regime what…

Transformative work of the day:

“Trump is dismantling federal cryptocurrency oversight while building a sprawling family crypto empire worth billions… The most flagrant exploitation of presidential authority in American history." www.citationneeded.news/trump-crypto...

Shout out to all the finance bros who didn’t give a shit about democracy, human rights, racism, homophobia, misogyny, the future of the planet or basic human decency and voted for the conman they thought was gonna be good for the economy. You guys are geniuses.

Coming to America sooner than the New York Times could ever imagine.

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

I'm 100% in favor of everyone calling CECOT a concentration camp after today. The AP can do so since Trump didn't let them cover today's presser, in seeming defiance of Trevor McFadden.

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

Why would you expect Democrats to come out and condemn vandalism of Tesla's when all cars matter?
