We are not angry enough--a whistleblower provided evidence a DOGE brat stole social sec data & sold it to a Palantir contractor. Our data is used to sell services back to the govt at taxpayer expense for big profits. That is OUR data. Instead of investigating the whisteblower is threatened 😠

Terror and retribution are a core part of how the Trump administration has governed. DOGE whistleblower had threatening note taped to his door and his brakes cut after Elon Musk accused him of lying. www.wired.com/story/he-ble...

Cuba helped several African countries in their liberation struggles against brutal colonial occupiers, including against the apartheid regime in South Africa which the US backed and supported. That’s what he means by “radical left-wing terrorism”, just to be clear. x.com/SecRubio/sta...

So folks understand the problems with the New York Times didn’t just start under Trump. The Times was the top promoter of invading Iraq (far more influential than Fox News) and it forwarded smears of the Clintons and Al Gore. The Times even did PR for Adolf Hitler before WWII. The problem isn’t new.

Elon about to run off with everyone's 401k in the most obvious pump and dump of all time like a heel cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase.

This was 100% an unforced error and 100% caused by Trump.

Very bad news. Screwworm appears to have made it to Texas, as was predicted. These parasites eat the living flesh of cattle, cause horrible pain, and can ultimately kill them. Yesterday, USDA Chief Brooke Rollins categorically denied that screwworm was close to the border.

For the first time since @ituc.bsky.social began its Global Rights Watchlist, the United States has been placed on a list of countries where workers' are under attack. But workers are fighting back and the labor movement will continue to defend our rights.

Kevin Warsh has tapped two outside associates as advisers—in as temporary contractors for now. Both are budget policy specialists, and one wrote the Fed chapter of Project 2025, which endorsed a radical restructuring of the central bank.

This ruling is horrendous. According to the court, individuals with profound cognitive disabilities cannot be "deprived" of liberty because their disability limits their ability to experience freedom. This is dehumanising in the extreme.

Tell any normal person about the surveillance state bullshit that happens in Minneapolis and they would say you are having a mental health episode. But in reality we have copters just circling our neighborhoods daily and the flight paths are just takeoff-circle-return.

Steyer: I have a strong anti-ICE platform. I think they are a criminal organization, and we have a very strong plan when it comes to prosecuting them. You don’t have to trust me. The head of ICE went online to say that my program is unfair to ICE agents, and I took that as a huge compliment.

Theonion couldn't have done much better here.

In an interview with The Tribune, Kevin O’Leary criticized Stuart Adams for demanding the Stratos data center be downsized, saying Adams is “listening to the people” because he’s worried about losing his primary election.

This is disturbing. Protesting crimes against humanity is being punished more seriously than a real felony.

This is bad. Three Washington state protesters have been found guilty of federal conspiracy charges for sitting in front of a bus taking people to an immigration detention center in Tacoma, and now face 6 years. Six others took plea deals rather than going to trial. newrepublic.com/post/211138/...

“If the State Police are going to use the same tactics as ICE agents, then they are no different than ICE. These actions do not in fact uphold public safety and do not protect people’s constitutional rights to peacefully demonstrate,” said Nedia Morsy of @maketheroadnj.bsky.social in a statement.

It seems we are now entering a new phase of the rise of inequality in the US. It's not just wealth and billionaires — it's a broader acceleration. Here's who benefited from economic growth in 2025, according to the latest estimates available on realtimeinequality.org

Note to media: police arresting peaceful protesters singing “give peace a chance” is not protesters “clashing” with police. It’s the state violating the First Amendment rights of people upset that human beings who did nothing illegal are being held without due process and being fed maggots.

Just a reminder that immigrants inside Delaney Hall are on their ninth day of a hunger and labor strike in protest of inhumane conditions and this was Governor Sherrill’s response last night:

RIGHT NOW: NJ state troopers with riot gear are forcing protesters supporting the hunger strikers of Delaney Hall and media ppl down the street. They’re firing flashbang grenades at the ground to force people to disperse, per the @statuscoupnews.bsky.social livestream www.youtube.com/live/yTlpCYk...

Mikie Sherrill and Abigail Spanberger are perfect archetypes of the centrist Democrat. Look like a feminist, claim the mantle of progressive values, then hand it to bosses and cops so they can use it to hold down working class people. This is why people despise the party - they're despicable.

my favorite erick erickson moment is when he said that his family refused to eat asian food on the anniversary of pearl harbor to honor the tragedy. a reporter reached out to his mom to confirm whether this was true and she was like “i don’t know what the fuck he is talking about”
