Just kinda seems like refusing to tell us which ICE agents murdered Alex Pretti undercuts the idea that they’re wearing masks to protect themselves — rather than to be able to kill people with impunity.

The incompetence of this administration is staggering.

If Donald Trump was a Russian spy actively sabotaging the United States of America... what would he do differently?

This actually tells you a lot.

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?

"they're drinking vodka straight out of the bottle tonight..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

A billionaire who has attached himself to the federal government while sucking massive amounts of money from it thinks *other* people are “parasites”

Anyway here's how it played in the press last time anything went this far, just for reference

There is literally HIV being transmitted from mom to baby because of the illegal shutdown of US AID and now Trump’s State Department wants to spend 400 million dollars on Tesla cyber trucks. This is not about efficiency. It’s a smash and grab.

this stuff makes perfect sense when you understand that these people have a slaveholder’s ideology and believe that liberty means the freedom to dominate others

Judge Coughenour was appointed to the bench by President Ronald Reagan in 1981.

I “ain’t” never seen nobody throw out a heart like that But i have seen a Sieg Heil… and it look like a Sieg Heil

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

Not going to pretend to be surprised about this because I wrote a book about January 6. But yes—if you were wondering—the most malevolent criminal in US political history is about to be POTUS in 6 days. It's an unimaginable situation, essentially a living nightmare, and very few fully comprehend it.

CBO: “The Biden years immigrant surge will add $9 TRILLION to the GDP between 2024–2034, $65,000 per 🇺🇸 household… increased wages, salaries, and profits… while reducing deficits nearly $1 Trillion…” www.cbo.gov/publication/...

“They don’t love our country, they only think about themselves” is not only a weird way to describe the standard rituals for a dead president but also a hell of a projection

It's one thing to fetishize the founders -- an approach the founders themselves discouraged! -- but it's something else to fetishize the founders *and* insist they said things they actually never said. Really bizarre.

These are the words of an extremist. At the moment we should band together to condemn domestic terrorism, this guy incites fear against teachers. Shame on him. Students and teachers deserve better.

If you put on A Murder Of One at exactly 11:55:07 tomorrow night, you'll ring in the New Year with CHANGE CHANGE CHANGE

I continue to be deeply moved by this statement to the heavens by President Carter.

There are laws it’s moral to break and then there’s laws where it’s morally okay for stuff to happen to the people who pass them.

Lt. Gen. Honoré: Elon Musk is a national security risk. "If the federal [probes] demonstrate deep connections to China and Russia, the federal gov't should consider revoking Musk's security clearance. It should already be thinking about using alternatives to SpaceX." www.nytimes.com/2024/12/29/o...

Imagine if there was a news outlet dedicated to highlighting the crimes of white men in their 30s. Every time a white man in his 30s was arrested, it would be depicted as a trend, with a call to crack down on all white men in their 30s. That’s what Fox is doing, except with undocumented immigrants.

The House Ethics Committee has released its report on the drug-fueled sexcapades of Matt Gaetz. www.cbsnews.com/news/matt-ga...

She tied me to a sewer pipe And cut me with a pizza knife and from my lips she drew the cowabunga

I think this should be kind of a big deal: Elon Musk tweeting at 1:03am, “Only the AfD can save Germany.” The AfD is Germany’s neo-Nazi party.

The federal government spending money on pediatric cancer research is good, actually.

my dad dressed up as buddy the elf to pick me up from the airport today

[Christmas, 1981. An architect listens to the radio in his kitchen] [yells upstairs] “Hey, hun? Didn’t you date that Fogelberg guy for awhile?” Wife: “In college, yeah Architect: “We’re fucking done, Shannon.”

Me, a public health person, just sitting over here reflecting on the fact that the US has experienced a 7% increase in infant mortality post-Dobbs. Like, do you realize what that says about this society from an ethical perspective? That we made policy choices that caused this? #PHEthx

I am convinced that bad news bias is the most powerful force driving American life right now. Based on the coverage over the last week you’d think the NBA and college football are on the verge of collapse when that just not the case at all. Are there issues? Sure. What happened to proportionality?

EDI PATTERSON: This is you bitch. This is your fucking grave you sleeping cap old wearing a dress to bed bitch.

WALTON GOGGINS (tearfully, kneeling before own grave): You are shitting on my mouth and calling it a sundae...you are fucking me in the ass, Spirit...

SCROOGE (Walton Goggins) (VO): It had been seven years Old Marley had been dead. Unless this is known, nothing fantastic can be understood MARLEY (Danny McBride) flings open BEDROOM DOOR: Hey Scrooge what's up you sassy son of a bitch. Who decorated this place Jack the Ripper

They’ll do this before setting up a national hotline to report threats of elementary school shootings.

sesame street isn't supposed to make money. the post office isn't supposed to make money. not everything is supposed to MAKE MONEY

For nearly eight years we have been warning about “autocratic capture,” the phenomenon by which aspiring autocrats threaten to wield the state against business leaders to coerce their loyalty. And here we are. More from @anneapplebaum.bsky.social here: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/how...

I have "Fozzymandias" stuck in my head and have absolutely no idea whatsoever to do with it. "Look upon my works, ye mighty, and wokka wokka"? That's nothing. Infuriating.

These people are cruel and ruthless. They don't care at all about our children or our country. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

There is a not so thin segment of society that against all evidence to suggest otherwise believes in the benevolence of Elon Musk

While we talking bout WingStop,,, they stepped up for my water polo teams. They delivered food to Olympic Village to my teams when the Olympics was low on protein and hired players for appearances. One of my girls couldn’t make it because of a family emergency and THEY STILL PAID HER,!!

This morning Joe headline sounds a lot like what @ianbassin.bsky.social warned us about. 🫤 www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

A lot of antivaxers think these diseases are huge jokes lol, they will mock you to your face if you express concern about them because they’ve never lived in a world where they were a threat

Not the worm had a cheat day
