"If she has her own house, what will she need me for?" I don't know, dude, maybe be cool and fun to be around and be happy for her success instead being whiny little sad-ass troll about it? www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

I once dated a woman who owned her own house when I was still a renter. Also her toolbox was bigger than mine. The latter was a bigger issue for my sense of manliness than the former. But now our tools are co-mingled, we own a house jointly, and are married with kids.

Amelia Boynton Robinson was *beaten unconscious* by the police at Bloody Sunday during the Selma voting rights march in 1965. Voting rights march. Sixty-one years ago.

John Lewis on the Edmund Pettus bridge Selma, Alabama March 7, 1965 Tom Lankford photographer

61 years ago, state troopers attacked unarmed, peaceful protestors in Selma with clubs & tear gas. Images & videos of Bloody Sunday shocked the nation & eventually led to the passage of the VRA – which SCOTUS just destroyed Our fight is not over. Today we march again for equality & justice

Rep. @brotherjones.bsky.social in Montgomery: “We’re here united to take on this new confederacy, 60 years after the Selma March… because we know their intent is to dismantle everything gained during the civil rights movement.”

It's like if buggy whip manufacturing had been insanely profitable, allowing Big Buggy Whip to buy politicians, obtain regulatory capture, and eventually insist that everyone needs to a buy a buggy whip for their car.

“…‘All of these projects you’re describing in Nevada have one thing in common—when the sun goes down, they produce zero electricity’ Burgum said… ‘Mr. Chairman…this amazing new technology that apparently the secretary is unaware of: It’s a battery’… Huffman said, to a smirk from Westerman…”

Finally, Ronald Reagan can rest in peace, knowing that children will no longer have to learn that some white people were the bad guys in that whole slavery thing.

Scott MacFarlane reports on growing momentum in Congress for Supreme Court term limits. Several bipartisan proposals would impose 18- or 20-year limits on Supreme Court justices. Rep. Olszewski says the issue goes beyond any single ruling and reflects a broader crisis of confidence in the Court.

‼️THE SOUTH WILL NOT BE SILENCED‼️ Today’s march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge is a reminder that voting rights were paid for in blood. And now those same rights are under attack again. Next: Montgomery #AllRoadsLeadToTheSouth

There's a major civil rights protest taking place in Selma, Alabama, right now in response to the SCOTUS decision that weakened the Voting Rights Act and the ongoing attack on Black Americans’ political power (video: defiancedispatch/IG)

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

it is my favorite time of the year, i.e., when my solar panels mean that my monthly power bill is < $10. we also just got a level 2 charger installed for the car, and as i’m thinking of doing some more serious renos to the house, i may get more panels installed + a battery. fully green house baybee

Just another normal day at DOJ where they have to withdraw a filing in New Hampshire that was intended for Minnesota.

You're entitled to your own opinion. You're NOT entitled to your own facts. #BelieveTheScience What he said 💯 👇 👇 👇

Some very good news out of a Texas federal court: Alex Jones doesn't have standing to appeal a Bankruptcy court order that placed InfoWars' assets in state receivership, meaning they can be licensed or sold to us. More to come, obviously, but we're almost there.

BURGUM: When the sun goes down, solar produces zero electricity HUFFMAN: I want to enter into the record this amazing new technology that apparently the secretary is unaware of -- it's a battery

Seems That Women, During This Chump Regime Especially, Are Not Getting The Proper Healthcare, Nor The Proper JUSTICE That ALL Americans Deserve,And GET !......

He seems to be doing a great job for WE, the People

we never had fake news till we got a fake president

I live in the greatest country in the world. I pay $450 a month for health insurance so I can pay $250 to go to a doctor who prescribes me a medication that I can't afford because it isn't covered by insurance.

The most accurate portrayal of the pro-Jim Crow, white nationalist Roberts Supreme Court I've seen yet.

During the pandemic that killed a million Americans there was no talk about sacrifice from republicans. If you said it wasn’t safe to go to Dave & Busters because there were no more hospital beds available you were a traitor to America. But a war of choice? Better start your liberty garden now.

I feel confident that this man has no idea what the women in his house do.

Can a presidential pardon be voided if it was bought with a bribe? Democrats just launched a sweeping investigation into Trump's pardons to find out—and they are demanding the financial receipts. This could make history. Read what happens next: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/everything...

Here is a graph of the daily temperature anomalies above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline over the last 20 years using Copernicus data. As you can clearly see, the trendline shows the planet passing 1.5°C within a year. Get on the boat, people!

Mamdani has proposed a balanced budget for next year, holding spending level while closing a $12 billion deficit. Trump's budget proposal increases the deficit year over year by about $300b, with a massive deficit next year of more than $2 trillion. Fiscal responsibility? Mamdani > Trump.

More leaking looking like an attempt to stop upcoming madness.

"There's no cameras where Tom is." So, what ... rehab?

This is exactly right. The New Yorker and NYT both have reporters on the “free speech on campus” beat (or did recently). The Atlantic had a project on it. Imagine if the same amount of resources had been dedicated to the “destruction of US universities” beat, what Rufo and Vance were saying for yrs

Not really surprising that the "free speech on campus" activists don't care that much now that higher education and academic research in the US are actually being dismantled.

Not just straws - it's clandestine soup-eating from now on, lads. And no kale. Sorry, I don't make the rules. www.mediaite.com/media/tv/con...

what i think @hurricanexyz.bsky.social is dead-on in highlighting here is that the VA supreme court ruling was a violation of the VA constitution itself, which quite explicitly notes that the power of the people to reform their constitution is sovereign and inalienable

again, this is literally black-letter constitutional text in virginia. this is an inalienable power that supercedes any formal amendment process. the court went beyond its jurisdiction when it attempted to overturn the referendum.

yes. the clearest path to deal with the SCVA ruling is just to say that it wasn’t a constitutionally valid exercise of judicial review. because it wasn’t!

On the left is an Onion headline from March. On the right is Reuters, today.

Trump hearing "cisgender" and thinking its "six genders" then getting all mad about it, thus forcing other Republicans to agree that the libs are now demanding there be six genders, is a perfect encapsulation of our Golden Age of Dickishness and Stupidity.

Every step taken by the federal government to promote and advance scientific research in the US, which has been the mainstay of US economic growth and strength since roughly 1870, is now being reversed in order to retard or suppress scientific research. This is a conscious policy.

Cleaning up Orban’s corruption in Hungary is a huge task after he looted their country for years, and it is certainly something we can watch unfold and learn from.

Stephen Colbert and David Letterman throwing things off the Ed Sullivan Theater. Colbert: “Anything you’d like to say, Dave?” Letterman: “In the words of the great Edward R. Murrow to CBS: ‘Good night and good luck, motherfuckers.’”

Just like his perfect phone call. He'd make it again. He got away with it before.

Listen to the women from elevate Utah on the humongous and horrendous data center Kevin O’Leary is trying to build in Utah Also they’re on this episode of fast politics pod podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

THANK YOU David Letterman & Stephen Colbert for a lifetime of smart satire, laughs, speaking truth to power & sending us to bed with a smile on our collective faces. You will be missed. 🙏 #EndOfAnEra
