I’m not sharing this to scare people—though it’s fucking terrifying. I’m sharing it because we all need to be on guard. We won’t be getting reliable data from the CDC anymore. Worse, the guidance could be harmful. RFK Jr. has no medical training, no scientific background…

(🧵) I’ve never—in 30 years in journalism—published a report like this: one that could genuinely bring hope. I spent the last 15 hours curating and labeling photos from hundreds of No Kings Day protests. It’s the largest archive of its kind and it has *lots* of Easter eggs (memes, an essay and more).

Congratulations. HANDMAID'S TALE is now a documentary.

bad news, everyone

We know trump's codename is krasnov. Do we know what musk's kompromat russian handle is?

“For Martin, it seems, Trump is not only “King” but the Lord, too.” Read @premthakker.bsky.social's piece on US District Attorney Ed Martin, who refuses to sign an arrest warrant for a GOP lawmaker accused of assault. zeteo.com/p/trumps-law...

As to Donald Trump’s foreign policy, this is it. This is the shibboleth. If you understand where the Trump Doctrine comes from, you understand exactly what is happening right now and why. Every American should read this, and so should every European diplomat. From a bestselling Trump biographer:

Elon Musk's maternal grandparents relocated from Canada to South Africa in the early 1900s, where they were in the German Nazi Party. They supported Hitler and then went to South Africa, a stronghold of support for Nazism outside of Germany. Musk was an anti-semite and an apartheid lover.

This is truly the best legal advice we can give.

PUTIN'S PIGEON While Tucker Carlson is positioning himself as a dove of peace, toiling to prevent a nuclear war, Putin’s acolytes say he is also acting as a carrier pigeon for the Russian president and privately delivering his messages to Trump. www.thedailybeast.com/putins-pals-...

sitting in a waiting room this morning while my partner had a 6 hour long cancer removal surgery when I saw the news that the insurance CEO was shot. Im paying out of pocket because the best alternative for us is partial coverage @ 1000 a month with a 15000 deductible. Anyway heres a unrelated comic

Important to get as many voices as possible filling in this survey -- so that it can be taken forward to politicians as evidence of public engagement with/ concern about this issue. Please do fill in and share. I sense this Bluesky community is about getting things done... so let's do it! 👇

1. In April 2024, California raised the minimum wage for fast food chains to $20/hour The industry claimed it would be devastating & require significant job cuts and prices increases Here is what really happened: workers got a raise, prices went modestly, and the industry continued to add jobs

Pence counterterrorism advisor @oliviaoftroye.com : “The danger Kash Patel poses is well known in these circles. He is a delusional liar. He put the lives of Navy Seals at risk in an operation in Nigeria.”

Everything Elon is about to do has the same ambition as the Bureau of Land Management hoax Trump pulled in 2019-20. We now know the goal was to force people (especially nonwhites) to quit—and force those who remained to have harder jobs so the Bureau would be less experienced and fail in its duties.

I believed this so completely that I even went to law school—but eventually pattern recognition (for eg endlessly rewarding startup lawlessness) made it impossible to sustain? That said, I’d give anything to live in a version of this reality…& miss the version of myself that believed I did?

"I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego. You are that man (and have been for many years) and as your mother it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth." Penelope Hegseth Pete Hegseth's mother

This is what we all need to do! Hit Em’ where it hurts! In the pocketbook!

This man is able to say this because SCOTUS neutered Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, gifted the presidency with near total immunity & gifted the courts with power to question & interpret agency regulations. There'll be more deregulatory action that will turn our Constitution upside down.

Billionaire closes in on deal to buy Royal Mail - A headline that would have been inconceivable before Thatcher. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Sensory processing sensitivities are more the norm than the exception among those with neurodivergence, severe mental illness, and complex trauma, so it’s unconscionable that staff aren’t trained to understand and help.

Humiliated by a Nazi officer as a teenager, Madeleine Riffaud joined the French Resistance. By the time she was 20, she had killed a German soldier, survived torture and captured a supply train. She died on Nov. 6 at her home in Paris. She was 100.

For those saying merrick garland failed. He didn't. He wilfully protected the criminals and traitors. He is one of them!

I feel seen

Children are prosecuted for reporting abuse because the system is designed by abusers.

“Farage cost farmers more money with Brexit than any inheritance tax. Now he’s cosplaying in tweed, marching alongside them. Tractors came to Whitehall in March, to protest trade deals Badenoch signed. Now they're applauding her speech. How can I take them seriously? Where are their principles?”

Nazi Petey who is nominated to run DOD was recently accused of war crimes in Iraq. 🤦‍♂️ 🤷 Can we just not with this fucking guy? It’s such a stupid idea to hire a literal Nazi war criminal to run the military. It seems like it’s Putin making the calls on these idiots. Destroy putin. 🇺🇸 🚀 🇺🇦

The multi-millionaire who bought farmland to avoid tax… And the man who decimated farming to progress his own career …are now the self-appointed saviours of farming On today’s pod we discuss how people have lost their damned minds. Listen on link below…

We see it so often that I think we can state this as a general rule: Those who most loudly proclaim their patriotism will, given the time and opportunity, harm their own nations as surely as any foreign adversary.

What were once 1960s libertarian fringe fantasies have now become reality. Zone Fever has arrived in the UK. Labour partnering up with Blackrock means the UK will be privatised. Thread

Trump has tapped Project 2025 leader Russ Vought to lead the Office of Budget & Management, which is the “nerve center of the federal gov” (per Vought). Last year, Vought tweeted that he was “proud to work w/ William Wolfe to scope out a sound Christian Nationalism.” 1/
