The 1885 Rock Springs Chinese Massacre is one of the most horrific and shameful acts of anti-Asian violence in our nation’s history. And for too long, it's gone unacknowledged.

If you've been reading independent journalism—which holds that Trump went to war with Iran in mid-2025 and that there have been no ceasefires in the war since then, everything happening now makes sense. If you've been reading corporate media headlines... you're confused as f*ck.

Ossoff: "We see a faithless president self-dealing while he depicts as Christ, while he depicts the Obamas as apes, while he plunges the nation into reckless war, sends prices soaring, and plunders our healthcare to cut taxes for those who already have spectacular wealth."

The Vatican went and made infographics for the encyclical 👍

I'm just going to say this out loud because why not but I feel like the groups pushing impeachment need to understand that simply introducing an article and forcing a vote is not a strategy. It is a tactic.

What the US is doing to Cuba is more than a humanitarian crisis. It is a genocide as defined by the United Nations. www.un.org/en/genocide-...

Online prediction markets are gambling, and gambling is foolish; but if one must gamble, here is my suggestion. Only bet on BAD things happening. The worst. If the bad thing happens, you get money. If you lose money, something good happens, plus maybe you get turned off a bit from gambling.

Colbert guest hosted a public access TV show in Monroe, Michigan a day after the Late Show ended. Guest star: Jeff Daniels Special appearance by: Eminem Musical director: Jack White Genius. youtu.be/jJTXB5uT_C4?...

The Arlington National Cemetery Memorial apparently has deleted references and information on everyone interred there who wasn’t a white straight man from their database - attempting to sweep their existence under the rug. My thoughts on this obscenity cannot legally be shared on this platform.

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

Katie Phang unloads on Senate Republicans after they fled Washington. "Do you hear that sound? It’s the sound of a whole bunch of f*cking losers leaving Washington, D.C."

Who cares about the DNC report? It's one of a million opinions and theories, that frankly I am sick of hearing about. Everyone has an opinion about why we lost. I don't need to see a bunch of them in writing. I don't need to justify my vote for Democracy. It was obvious which way to vote.

The feds harangued Kat and my family over bullshit charges for a year. They tried to beat her down, bankrupt Kat and her codefendants through legal fees, and a defeat her spirit. They fucking lost. They will continue to lose. Fuck ICE forever. To this criminal gang of a government: stay losing.

Chicago’s top federal prosecutor Thursday dropped the case against the remaining “Broadview Six” defendants in a stunning hearing that revealed apparent misconduct before a grand jury — of which he said he recently learned. Quick take via @chicago.suntimes.com: chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

Morning everyone. Do you know that your President just exempted himself, his family, and all his family's companies from our tax laws? You are subject to the law. Now he is not. No one should not pretend this is okay or normal. It's an ongoing constitutional crisis.

most of the time when people say things like "technofeudalism" or "serfdom" to talk about modern conditions, I would urge you to consider instead the "company town."

Memphis is “under full-blown occupation” by ICE. Here’s why you may not know that. link.motherjones.com/click/457922...

Google is justifying a move to default AI search by saying it "removes friction." The problem is that friction is a necessary part of life and this incessant need to rid ourselves of it is going to lead to so many problems we can't anticipate.

I was thrilled to honor Ruth Messinger for our pre-Shavuot celebration marking Jewish American Heritage Month. From Clara Lemlich, to Rabbi Heschel, to Ruth’s mother Marjorie Wyler marching at Selma with Dr. King, Jewish Americans have long led fights for justice.

this is a masterpiece

So much depends on whether our system, and our leaders, speak to what is best in us - or what is worst in us.

An attack on Black America is an attack on all of America. Remember: if they come for us, they’ll come for you next. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/16/u...

I don't post political much, but feel this needs to be said. There are lies being put forth by both the right and the left. I see them on here, inciting outrage. Yes, have your outrage against evil, but be vigilant that what you read is true. A strong battle is won on truth.

Come with me to help our local Daisy Scouts get their government badge in Queens! 🍪 (🎥✨ Trying out vlogging for the first time - let me know your thoughts/tips/tricks!)

I need someone to explain to me exactly how Mamdani manages to sidestep the very bureaucracy that other politicians always blame for their inability to get anything done. Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

Another myth is that Palestinians rejection of the partition plan was the reason for the catastrophe. But records from But records from early Zionists clearly show that expulsion and dispossession of the Indigenous population was always the plan.

Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.   Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us.

"Alien Volunteer Work Program".... JFC.

As Democrats look for a viable healthcare message ahead of the midterm elections, one well-connected think tank is pushing the party to embrace a new idea: free primary care for all Americans.

Straight-up admitting it’s all for show. Unbelievable stuff.

Residents of the Chicago apt complex that were victimized by federal immigration agents in Sept. of 2025 have now filed legal claims for their suffering and abuse. I've got more details about that illegal raid that resulted in NO federal criminal charges against anyone. youtu.be/qcBxJzU4Wag?...

doing whatever it takes to make jodie foster think you’re cool

NEW: Immigrants Detained in Chicago Military-Style Raid Seek Millions in Damages New accounts from 17 men, women and children who have filed formal claims after being detained in a late-night raid paint a violent and terrifying portrait of the federal agents’ actions.

There are few things more difficult than departing from meeting with a client in I.C.E. detention. Wasn’t even permitted to speak with her because I didn’t have the funds to pay associated fees beforehand. To be clear, this is illegal. The Right to Counsel is clear. But the Rule of Law is dead. 🇺🇸

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

A tale of how moderation works around here, in two parts

The national debt just crossed a once-unthinkable threshold: It now exceeds 100% of America’s GDP. But there's an important piece missing from the conversation about the debt that you should know about. Let me explain... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-no-one-will-tell-you-about-the

It is wrong and criminal for government agents to kidnap someone, send them to die in a concentration camp, and disappear them, regardless of immigration status. But it's still worth noting she has a green card. The government doesn't even pretend this is about deporting undocumented people.

this is the closest I've ever come to actually suggesting a "one neat trick" suggestion for anything, but I'm so serious here. the Virginia Constitution gives the legislature the power to set retirement ages for judges "REGARDLESS OF THE TERM TO WHICH ELECTED OR APPOINTED." make it 54 right now.

AOC is right to say this, and anyone who attacks her for it is wrong. And AOC should under no circumstances be labeled antisemitic.

The Washington Post is just so profoundly embarrassing now

FYI: It costs only about 3% of face value to buy a futures contract. That means that a $28 million investment paid over $125 million in profit in just 70 minutes. 500%+ in 70 minutes. That's why Trump makes he bogus announcements; so his buddies can reap illegal profits like that.

Benched. 🗳️🤦‍♂️

When the only Jewish leader of a political party in the UK is branded an antisemite for opposing genocide whilst a man who made "gas chamber whistles" at Jews is lauded as the next Prime Minister you know this country is deeply, deeply sick.

“I live in constant fear that I will be subjected to further baseless detentions just for going about my daily life." On May 2, Leonardo Garcia Venegas, a Florida-born US citizen, was detained by ICE in Alabama for the third time (!) in the span of a year. And he's suing the federal government.

I don’t trust Hezbollah. I don’t trust Hamas. But I trust Israel even less. Neither Hezbollah nor Hamas play in our face, bully Americans into silence, steal our resources and manipulate our politicians. Neither starved and cut off water to millions of people. They don’t walk around with
