The Texas legislature rammed through a gerrymandering bill at the request of Trump. Virginia actually voted in favor of redistricting to counterbalance what Texas and other Republican-controlled states have done. Yet only one is considered a "power grab." Oligarch-owned media in a nutshell.

“There’s just a gigantic amount of people that need to be made fun of that haven’t been touched yet." The Onion CEO @bencollins.bsky.social, a Mass. native, on why the satirical news site kept fighting to take over Infowars. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/04/22/b...

David Bowie passed January 10th 2016, 101 days later Prince passed away April 21st 2016. Ten years ago we lost the two coolest people to ever live. I think it broke our timeline and sent us down a path of absurd ruin and torment. I’m only sorta joking. It does seem to all go to shit after that.

Trump would have won his Iran war but he had an ingrown toenail. 😞

the washington post @washingtonpost.com, a newspaper owned by the 4th richest man in the world (current net worth: $241,000,000,000+) says that rich people already pay enough taxes. it feels like something a fiction writer would throw out because its too absurd.

Unbelievable stuff from the Washington Post on behalf of Jeff Bezos today.

Not sure how this "no tax on tips" stunt was supposed to play out, but showing a senior citizen who is stuck driving Door Dash because she can't afford her husbands cancer treatment is not the flex they think it is. Or was that part bullshit too?

👀 “We were never friends with Orbán,” said Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov. More: www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

US media needs to start calling Trump's shit out too! He's trying to control all of it except some independent news sources.

I have seen one good example of this plate

Sure, Jan... #Epsteinfiles #trumpfiles

'never been friends', really❓❗

It seems America has run on the honor system for 250 years. Then we ran out of honor. A madman is in charge and he’s surrounded by cowards. Now we find that impeachment is meaningless. The 25th amendment is meaningless. The Bill of Rights is meaningless. And the Constitution is meaningless.

Congress is completely useless at this point.

TODAY: Iranians are forming human chains around civilian infrastructure (bridges, power plants) as Trump threatens to kill them all

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

I think we can all agree that we've taken this whole "anybody can be president" thing too far.

Paxton is as crooked as a broken slot machine. He looks like one too.

ZING!

Imagine if Obama had ended a tweet threatening war crimes with "praise be to Allah".

Lol, Karoline Leavitt was paid to launder lies for a foreign billionaire who was convicted of billion-dollar fraud, and here she is telling students to always check their sources. 🤡

if you invented public libraries today, every opinion page in the country would be arguing for means tested subsidized Amazon Prime memberships

Miami Dade College — the largest minority-enrollment college in America — gave up 2.6 acres of prime downtown Miami waterfront. DeSantis transferred the property to Trump's library foundation. Purchase price on the quitclaim deed: $10.

"And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling kids!"

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Freedom of religion to do whatever it wants is the premier right to the current Heritage Foundation Based-SCOTUS/Judiciary. In order to limit this the answer now is to start religions that allow you to do things that conservatives abhor. FSM

Calling Smart Bluesky So social security runs out of cash in 2032 assuming at that point we raise retirement age, lower payments and/or increase taxes. Shouldn’t that happen right about the point we are predicting mass AI driven layoffs? Much less SS taxes coming in at the same time? Feels bad.

How can anyone ready this and not see that Trump is a domestic abuser.

DJ Dan, my favorite DJ, passed away. I literally pay for Amazon Music because years and years ago I uploaded mp3 files I made from his mixtapes. I lost the tapes and the computer that had the MP3’s so I keep the files alive on this terrible music app. Anyways, he will always be my fav.

earlier today The Husband wondered whether NYT's No Kings coverage was so bad that it would become counterproductive for them--like, propagandaing so hard that it's not credible/useful and makes people suspicious of what else they're mischaracterizing anyway,

Only 23% of government workers believe they “can report a suspected violation of a law, rule, or regulation without experiencing retaliation.” That's way down form the share the prior year (72%) who said they could report suspected illegal activity without fear www.thebulwark.com/p/two-more-g...
