When did empathy become a sin? When did we let the bastards win? When did the thieves deserve the gold? When did our souls get bought and sold? When did we fall? When did we fall? When did we fall so goddamn low? citizenofthefuture.bandcamp.com/track/when-d...

Democrats (84%) and independents (70%) are more likely than Republicans (53%) to see empathy as a net positive for society. White evangelical Protestants are the only religious group in which fewer than half (42%) view empathy as a foundational moral value; a majority (54%) say it can be dangerous.

Trump’s DOJ has charged James Comey AGAIN, this time under the Espionage Act over a 2016 New York Times story. In DOJ’s own words, Comey had staff talk to a reporter to “correct misinformation” in a Reuters article.

Comey: Well, they're back again. It would almost be funny if it weren't such an appalling abuse of the DOJ. One that we cannot become numb to. Nothing's changed with me. I'm still innocent. I'm still not afraid of these people. And I still believe in the independent federal judiciary.

Before the 2008 crash, Wall Street hid massive financial risks using accounting tricks. Now Big Tech appears to be following the same playbook. Americans and our entire economy are at risk because Trump’s regulators are choosing to look the other way.

Of course they are

Mother Jones@motherjones.com

When Anthropic was created, its co-founders pledged to commit 80% of their personal equity holdings in the company to philanthropic causes. As they prepare to take the company public, they appear to be walking back that pledge.

Okay, but you DIDN'T hold Bondi or Noem accountable. You didn't do anything. So is this your way of saying you're not going to deal with Hegseth?

JEFFRIES: “.. we’re going to hold him accountable in the same way that we held Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem accountable. .. And Pete Hegseth needs to be pushed aside by the president, or we’re going to have to deal with that situation if he is not.” www.politico.com/live-updates...

I don't think I ever watched an episode of Star Trek (science fiction isn't my thing), but I thought casting a Russian while the Cold War was still raging, to make the point that humans would get along better in the future, was a lovely touch.

Just to be clear... Prop 40 is a ONE-TIME retroactive tax. It applies ONLY to billionaires and would tax just 5% of their wealth — which grew 30% in 2025. California's billionaires would still be worth $2T+ AFTER the tax. The revenue will fund healthcare for millions of Californians. Vote YES.

In the end, their defense always comes down to "I'm not the evil one, I was just following orders."

In interviews, Alexander described the immigration system he was enforcing as “skewed” and “weird,” but he saw himself as largely separate from these concerns. “If you’re taking federal money to do a job,” he says, “I think you should do the job.”

Israel is just 2 days away from a critical election, and thousands of protesters are filling the streets of Tel Aviv demanding Netanyahu’s removal! They’re demanding accountability for October 7 security failures and an independent commission of inquiry.

There it is. Elon Musk admits it. “That loophole was closed last week.” In a deranged post on X, Musk openly acknowledges that SpaceX recently restricted Ukraine’s ability to use Starlink.

U.S. citizen Ricardo Gonzalez was brutally detained by ICE in Long Beach while he yelled for help and said his arm was broken. This is a pattern of abuse and violence from ICE. No one is safe and our communities are being terrorized. We need ICE out.

Abdul Syed didn't vote to send $250 million to the Muslim Brotherhood. Mike Rogers did. Abdul wants universal healthcare and fully funded schools. Mike wants hundreds of billions on foreign wars. The choice is clear — vote Abdul for Senate. 👊🏽❤️

I'm showing the body cam video of Kohen Wiley's death because they refused to release it and people deserve to see what happened. Police were never in danger. They fired into a car that was already past them over alleged shoplifting of diapers.
