Dead Internet: our entire system-culture, economy, politics is a pyramid of lies. from aipac to grokipedia, bibi/putin to murdoch. fewer humans read or grasp the centuries-long fight against authoritarian rule built on religion. we’re not in the 1930s..we are back in the 1780s🇺🇸 Hart28.com

This meme is actually based on a real scientific finding. Researchers studying howler monkeys found that males with larger vocal organs producing deeper, more powerful calls tended to have smaller testes, while species with larger testes tended to have less-developed vocal organs. So, there ya go.

Take 20 seconds , read the whole thing.

What’s that amendment again? Oh, yeah 25!!!...🤔🤔🤔

Absolutely incredible. NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone. Watch with sound on.

I Fully Endorse this Message…. FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, I DON'T EVER WANT TO HEAR ANOTHER REPUBLICAN LECTURE ANYONE ABOUT LAW AND ORDER, FAMILY VALUES OR MORALITY.THE PARTY OF TRUMP HAS LOST ALL CREDIBILITY ON THOSE MATTERS.

The eyewatering hypocrisy writes itself.

Do you know. That out of all members of the house and the senate. All 535 of them. Only 17 reject AIPAC Israel donations. 17 So now you no longer need to ask: “Where is Congress?” You can see who here. www.trackaipac.com/congress

I love this!!

Federal grand juror on her experiences over last 1.5 yrs. In my experience with the Epstein files, I found the evidence presented to be credible and believable. There are evil people in the world who are wired differently and are this depraved. These things really do happen.

4 months after Trump pardoned Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, Forbes reports that Binance now holds $4.7 billion of the $5.4 billion supply of Trump’s World Liberty Financial stablecoin. That is 87%. It is the largest corruption scandal in the history of the US presidency.

Rep. Stansbury: “The United States government is engaged in an active cover-up of the largest sex trafficking scandal and influence peddling scandal in the history of the United States, and Donald Trump is right at the center of it.”

The complete unredacted files must be released and those implicated should be held accountable regardless of partisanship, wealth, or standing in society.

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. 1/3

BREAKING: Here's the full release: The Justice Department just released 3 million additional pages responsive to the Epstein Files Transparency Act. More than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images are included. www.justice.gov/opa/pr/depar...

Please share. 💔

Please watch PM Carney's speech. Powerful, and in my view as a political scholar, 100% accurate. We must stop living within the lie. m.youtube.com/watch?v=fV5f...

I just took a ride with Uber, and my driver is from Venezuela. He spent the whole trip expressing concern that the same shift from democracy to dictatorship he saw in Venezuela is happening right now in the United States. He’s absolutely incredulous that Americans are allowing it to happen.

Dr. King believed our democracy would only make sense when every child was fed, every mind was educated, and every community had dignity and freedom. That vision is still unfolding. So, on this MLK Day, let us recommit to the work of building the world he dared to imagine.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

America is a rogue and malevolent state and global bad actor

@maddow.bsky.social: “There are very few Americans right now who have any idea why the United States did this. If this was about drug trafficking then why did President Trump just pardon the former President of Honduras who was convicted of sending hundreds of tons of drugs into the US?”

What we’re being told is that a guy who is an adjudicated rapist, who was credibly accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, who paid hush money to a porn star, who cheated on all his wives, who is mentioned hundreds of times in the Epstein files, couldn’t possibly be a sexual predator.

This cracks me up?!

This reality is sad and very difficult to come to grips with.

There was a time when the United States looked down its nose at the countries in South America for being lawless banana republics. Who's the banana republic now, bitches?

Spot on: Demolishing the East Wing is a perfect metaphor for what Trump is doing to this country.

Wow!!!

WAKE UP PEOPLE !!!

It’s amazing how all the reporting is just memory-holing this part

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it. Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

Fun facts: Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009, has won an Emmy, two Grammys, and his production company won an Oscar. Trump has won 34 felony convictions as well as civil adjudications for rape and financial fraud. He is currently protecting rich and powerful pedophiles in the GOP.

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans. Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies. Folks, I think America First might be a scam.

And the key word here is WEAK. Never before have we had such a weak, small person in the presidency. Bullying & threatening are marks of weakness. But the rest of the GOP "leadership" is weaker. Even more afraid of what is going to happen to THEM. Completely impotent. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

When you think you're World War II's Patton, but you're really just M*A*S*H's Major Frank Burns.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Reminds me of how the Koch brothers funded the “grass roots” tea party.

Two years ago, our reporter @josh-kaplan.bsky.social received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of thousands of files: years of secretly recorded conversations, private militia chat logs and videos sent by a man named John Williams. (Published Jan. 2025)

this post will never not make me snort

US Army Veteran speaks out ….Keep speaking the truth!

These women are so brave. Much respect. Meanwhile the occupier of the oval office continues to call this a "hoax."

WAKE UP! The survivors of Jeffrey Epstein deserve justice. They deserve to be heard. Today at 10:30 AM EST / 7:30 AM PST, they’re speaking live at a press conference. The system tried to bury the truth, but these voices are rising anyway. Watch. Share. Don’t look away. (Link in 🧵)
