REP. @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “The biggest ‘welfare queens’ in 🇺🇸 are corporations that don’t pay a penny in federal taxes, and CEOs who get a tax deduction for flying on a private jet — not hungry kids, or working parents who work multiple jobs.”

When the streets start telling the truth, it’s because the institutions won’t. What’s become painfully obvious is that ICE agents aren’t trained to make us safer. They’re just recruits who thirst for power, violence, and cruelty. [street art from around the country]

Enjoying the One Vote Wonders of the #XPNcountdown on my way into work. PLEASE @kristenkurtis.bsky.social and @wxpnfm.bsky.social make this a bonus playlist! My coworkers are not as musically adventurous as my XPN FAM! (Hoping for Sweet Child of mine by Taken by trees!)

Take my money PLEASE!! THANK YOU @wxpnfm.bsky.social for one of THE BEST #XPNcountdown. Idea for fundraising T-shirt.. I’m a WXPN COUNTDOWN DATA GEEK ! 🤣😬🤣

View while I sit in my car listening to the finale of the #XPNcountdown (and wait for daughter to finish up & come home from school). It’s PERFECT 🎶❤️🎶

Actual footage of me leaving work so I can listen to the rest of the #XPNcountdown

Sturgill Simpson got me on the “ok I like twangy country” kick. In Bloom was one of my picks. Now I just don’t like jam bands. Still a GREAT #XPNcountdown even w all the Dead & Phish 😬

How did I forget Richie Havens??!!!! 😭 #XPNcountdown

Noem leaves the hearing and is heckled as she departs the room

I KNOW @djrobertdrake.bsky.social knew Girls Just Want to Have Fun by CL was a cover. Did it get his vote on the #XPNcountdown ?

This is such a beautiful version of Heartbeats. One of my MANY number 11s for the #XPNcountdown

3/10. I still have hope! Trust/ enjoy the process! 🎶❤️🎶 #XPNcountdown @wxpnfm.bsky.social

I really hate when work gets in the way of listening to the #XPNcountdown 😭 Thank you @wxpnfm.bsky.social for the recaps!! 😁

MY NUMBER ONE!!!!!! FINALLY one of my picks on the #XPNCountdown !!!! And I didn’t miss it!!

Wondering the the Wall of Voodoo version of Ring of Fire will place on the #XPNcountdown 🤔

Raise your hand if you didn’t know Dazed and Confused was a cover 🙋‍♀️ The more you know the more you grow on the #XPNcountdown

Bummed I didn’t go to the MMJ show. I’ve really enjoyed their covers on the #XPNcountdown

Ms Ndegeocello making another appearance on the #XPNcountdown #badassbassplayer

Himes: "I think it's really important this video by made public ... it's important people see what it looks like when the full force of the US military is turned on two guys who are clinging to a piece of wood and about to go under just so they have a visceral feel for what it is we're doing"

582 & 583 got me up dancing & decorating to the #XPNcountdown

An American president is pressuring politicians of his own party on social media by name, even after some of them have received threats and been swatted in the wake of prior Trump postings. This is what experts on political violence call "stochastic terrorism." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Feeling that I COMPLETELY FAILED at my #XPNcountdown list by not including/ remembering this SADE cover 😭😭😭

Looking forward to another day of great music on the #XPNcountdown

Dana Bash went on to note how the award 'was only created a few weeks ago after President Trump didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize.' When they finished LOL in the studio! 🤣

SCOTUS: "The Texas maps were drawn for political—not racism—goals." NARRATOR: "And Texas used racism to achieve those political goals."

#GVerse Anti-ICE protesters SHUT DOWN Nola City Counsil Meeting, after demanding to speak about #FuckICE in New Orleans and city collaboration. City Counsil shut down the public comment and left!

Anyone ever see Valerie Junes version of War Pigs? I think it was when she played the Keswick. Pretty cool to see the fairy 🧚goddess do Black Sabbath! @wxpnfm.bsky.social #XPNcountdown

Thanks @wxpnfm.bsky.social and #XPNcountdown I went from 😭 to Whitney’s Greatest Love (first CD my mom owned) to 💃 around my kitchen to Van Halen Dancing in the Streets!! ❤️ all the emotions music brings!!

Wow!! This version!! The #XPNcountdown doesn’t disappoint!!

Loving this #XPNcountdown recap!!! This Must Be the Place by Sure Sure www.shazam.com/track/340939...

LOVING this #XPNcountdown recap!!! EXCELLENT idea @wxpnfm.bsky.social

Will be forever keeping as…. “Elmo made it on the #XNPcountdown ??!!l” song 🤣🤣🤣

Cool Postal Service cover for the #XPNcountdown just missing the Phil drum solo!!!

Jane’s Addiction cover of Ripple just missed making my list! The JA cover of Sympathy for the Devil is AMAZING. But this version of the cover definitely sounds like a toned down Perry Farrell.

Unearthed 2016 video: Pete Hegseth straight up says US troops will not follow ‘unlawful orders’ from the commander-in-chief, and there have to be consequences for ‘abject war crimes’. Guess it suddenly gets blurry when it’s Trump issuing the unlawful orders.

Sinead making her appearance on the #XPNcountdown!!

Have been looking forward to the #XPNCOUNTDOWN since the theme was announced! Can’t wait to hear which of my picks make it! Hallelujah-Jeff Buckley/ Leonard Cohen Halo - LP/ Beyoncé Sweet child of mine - Taken by Trees/ Guns & Roses Wild Horses- the Sundays/ Rolling Stones

Malcolm Nance said these sound like the titles of porn movies.

Whew! This video isn’t just spilling the tea on Usha Vance. It makes a much bigger point. People who think they’re getting over by being white-adjacent are in for a rude awakening. It never lasts. (Part I)

So to summarize: we’re not doing SNAP, but we are doing naval executions. Cool, cool, cool.

Trump and Republican leaders are dismissing the largest protests in U.S. history. But Americans are not laughing, and the ranks of those dissatisfied with Trump’s authoritarian actions are growing.

Donald Trump is giving $20 billion of taxpayer money to Argentina – to help his political ally stay in power and bail out Wall Street hedge funds – while Americans at home can't afford health care or groceries.

What's happening in Chicago is not normal. The arrest of Alderperson Fuentes is just the latest example of how far Noem and Bovino are willing to go to ignore the rule of law. We must all speak up.

Prosecute him. No more fucking around. Treat them like the Nazis they are.

“To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police.” - Judge William Young, September 30, 2025

It's one thing to pepper uninformed supporters with lies and falsehoods. But you have to wonder what an audience of the country's brightest and finest senior military officers must think after suffering through more than hour of meandering, self-aggrandizing and incredibly misleading rhetoric.

When you're running from Nazis and the official running from Nazis theme drops...

Jimmy Kimmel's Monologue now has 14.3 MILLION VIEWS on YouTube. It would be a shame for you to share it www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tj...

Step Up!

AOC: Whether it is a member of congress, whether it is the President to assume and assert and cast blame when the FBI has failed to even apprehend the assailant, is absolutely an irresponsible action.
