"The point of fighting fascism isn’t to win every battle. It is to stand courageously against the onslaught, which will encourage others to fight, too. We cannot and will not win every time, but they ultimately cannot defeat us if we stand strong together." ~ Jay Kuo

Actually Americans do know who is really in charge of the USA it's: Putin, oligarchs, and Netanyahu in that order. We can change that if we #VoteInNumbers2Big2Rig #ElectADemSuperMajority #RescindTheTrumpBBBill #ImpeachConvictRemoveDT #ImpeachTheSCOTUS6 #ExpandTheSCOTUS

The Brazilian Supreme Court also calls for an investigation into: — Allegations that influencers were paid to promote pro-Bolsonaro Polymarket predictions. — Meta’s algorithms — Reports of paid AI-generated fake accounts, deepfakes, and coordinated disinformation operations.

Ansari: "The irony I want to point out is you have Trump speaking with the govt of Qatar and getting a multibillion jet. You have his son in law as well as his sons making billion dollar deals with the Saudis. But then here in the US, the way they talk about Muslim Americans & Arabs is disgusting."

It’s unfortunate that Zelenskyy and Ukraine has to simultaneously fight a two-front war against Russian barbarians and the greedy gangsters running the US government.

Did you know we’re below the minimum recommended amount of oil, and just barely above the *statutory minimum* in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve? Lowest level since 1982, and gas is still through the roof. What happens when the war in Iran kicks back off?

Trump renamed the DoD to Dept. of War. I've been thinking he should follow through and just rename DoJ to the Dept of Crime. But maybe that's too on-the-nose even for him.

My new hero!

This is a rare moment of bipartisanship. And a reliable indication that Darline Graham is a horrible, inexperienced nepo-candidate.

Almost there….

Brown and RISD students have taken the streets, joined by Providence community members, to demand justice for Nolan Wells and Kohen Wiley! Nolan Wells didn't drown, police executing 1 year old Kohen could never possibly be justified, and we are fed up with the racist capitalist system.

“If the US has someone whom historians will look back on as the gravedigger of American democracy, it is Mitch McConnell.” — Historian Christopher Browning

If I manufactured a firearm without a safety, I’d be in jail. If I use a firearm without a safety and it accidentally damaged someone’s property, I’d be liable and in jail. But apparently it’s cool to make LLMs without safety’s and keep using them no matter how many crimes they commit.

It’s wild how the press talks about LLMs like they are literally just some cheeky child causing mischief by accident rather than, you know, software owned by billionaires with a society-degrading political agenda.

One. Hundred. Percent.

Trump’s campaign “red state blitz” is turning into a traveling disaster. Hecklers, angry voters, Vivek’s disgusting ad, Ashley Hinson’s weak-ass embrace. Republicans are supposed to be closing strong in red states. Instead, they’re unraveling and the backlash is becoming the story.

I’m sick of headlines treating these forays as something done independently. No. Anthropic created it. Anthropic did this. And they should be held to account, not some supposedly autonomous AI www.reuters.com/world/us/ant...

As if Trump’s refusal to send military aid to Ukraine hasn’t been sickening enough, he hasn’t even sent the Patriot defense missiles that Ukraine already paid the U.S. for.

Fuck Musk. He is pure evil & a shitty liar. Musk said in a post on X that Ukraine had violated the terms of service for Starlink net service by using it “for offensive drone strikes to kill people.” Ukraine said It was “technically impossible” to use SL for drone missiles. #Musk #Ukraine #Blues

Meta is accused of election interference in Brazil after restricting Lula's Instagram while recommending Bolsonaro's accounts. 1,613 foreign-funded political ads were uncovered generating 171M impressions. Brazil has ordered Meta to explain its conduct.

I thought he was going to drain the swamp?

This is the same as Epstein. The ability of one man being able to blackmail countries. But now it is legal!

Dogs used to be sacrosanct in America. Even to Republicans. The idea of voting for neo-Nazi scientists torturing dogs in a lab to create "war monsters" was millions of miles beyond unthinkable. Now a good number of our fellow citizens are voting for dog torture and Hellhounds.

GM has made major layoffs throughout 2026. But its net profits for Q3 2026 rose 151% compared to a year ago. Its CEO was paid $30M in 2025 (333x more than the median employee). And GM is planning $20 billion in stock buybacks — the largest in US automaker history. Corporate greed in a nutshell.

Hey Elon, I have a message for you. Representative Jim Himes

The liberal plot to make Republicans look stupid, also known as “operation just let them speak” is working splendidly.

Zach Lahn is running for governor of Iowa on an “Iowa First” message. But since he began his campaign, he’s flown his private plane to Wichita, Kansas, at least 37 times. He switched his voter registration from Kansas in October 2024, just meeting Iowa’s two-year residency requirement.

Gotta go with TALARICO on this one! Gotta hope and pray if democrats take the house and senate that contracts that have given tens of billions of dollars to Musk and company are terminated and that he is deported as the illegal alien he is!

Russia, Russia, Russia was NEVER a hoax.
