98% of the refugees admitted to the U.S. under Trump have been white South Africans.

Your daily reminder that progressive Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny is an American citizen and MAGA lunatic Nicki Minaj is not.

Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

This is why Trump just said at his rally that he doesn’t care about high gas prices because people who own stakes in the oil and gas industry are getting rich.

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

This is true. Qatar is widely believed to be the biggest financial backer of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The night was absolutely horrific. I’ve only just woken up and I feel completely exhausted because we barely slept for most of the night. We heard several explosions and one of them was particularly loud. It turned out that a russian drone had struck a residential building not far from where I live

Elon Musk has dumped almost $450 million into the midterm elections. Tesla paid 0% in federal income tax last year. We should tax the billionaires.

Trump claimed he heard Obama's event in Michigan today was empty. Meanwhile, the venue was packed, lines stretched outside, and Obama even addressed an overflow room because everyone couldn't fit inside. Mercado Media

We are making the oil oligarchs rich. We are making Trump and his cronies rich. It is literally at our expense every day. There’s no trickling down happening. And Trump is bragging about it knowing nobody in the Republican Party will stand up to him and say enough.

Keith Ellison: "This guy had the nerve to go on his social media thing and say he was gonna get 'reckoning and retribution against Minnesota.' Well I can't wait until November 3 so we can get reckoning and retribution on him."

Wouldn’t you agree? #Pinks #USDemocracy

This is literally the end of the rule of law. If a President can pardon people committing crimes on his behalf - and the Supreme Court says he himself can't be prosecuted for crimes committed as part of his job - then the government becomes a lawless entity able to violate our rights without limit.

Elon Musk's audacious campaign to keep Alex Gibney's Musk out of theaters and social media shows the fantastic power Musk wields in America today, especially the power to squelch his critics. www.status.news/p/elon-musk-...

“How long can we tolerate Elon Musk deciding our elections and foreign policy? How critical is it that investigations immediately begin if and when the Democrats take back power? Should Starlink and SpaceX be nationalized to minimize Musk’s power?” www.americaamerica.news/p/how-long-c...

@katmabu.bsky.social is helping candidates across the country organize in a way that helps people whether their campaigns win or lose. Kinda weird to imagine politics being… inspiring?

Trump: I have something to say about Ukraine. Ukrainians: For fuck's sake, not again.

We now know two things: Vivek Ramaswamy will never be governor of Ohio, and JD Vance will never be president of the United States. It’s a fine day to be an American. 🇺🇸

One day a reporter will finally snap back “shut the fuck up, grandpa” and become the first GoFundMe billionaire

Reporters need to stop tolerating this abuse from this man.

Ukraine has survived empires. Dictators. Famines. Occupations. Invasions. And Ukraine will outlive putin, too. Because Ukraine is bigger than any tyrant. #ukraine #russia #putin #war #ukrainians

I have been praying for this kind of pushback from Democrats against Elon Musk for a long time now and I am thrilled that the Talarico camp is leaning into it. Light. Him. Up.

Just when I thought I had lost the capacity to be shocked

of this war from his own perspective and through his daily contact with the people most affected. I don't think any other host has managed to get him to open up like this. ​It’s well worth watching, even if you don't follow the war closely. Truly a great interview and a powerful conversation.

The new Zelenskyy interview with Steven Bartlett is one of the best he has ever given. ​I know it’s a bit long, but if you have time to watch the whole thing, I highly recommend it. ​Steven gives Zelenskyy the space to share the human cost and real emotions

100% this and proud to have @lydiakauppi.bsky.social on our team.

Trump gives Russia $$$. Russia gives Trump...this.

In August, Trump claimed Iran had killed over 100,000 protesters. Today, he claims Iran killed 75,000 protesters. So either 25,000 protesters have magically come back to life… or—and let’s spitball for a second—Trump is lying.

“Departures from these practices should never be countenanced because they risk allowing prosecutors to impact national elections.” -Todd Blanche on DOJ’s 60-day rule, September 2024

Still waiting for a legacy journalist to slap back and say they’re not going to take any more abuse from this sick and disgusting man.

On this reprehensible Ramaswamy ad: Everyone in my former political party has learned from Trump. When you fuck up - never apologize, never accept responsibility, refuse to be held accountable, double down, triple down, attack, blame the media, play the victim, lie, lie, lie.

I think about how we must leave this Earth better than when we found it. Faith is a thing we have too little of in Washington. We don't have faith in our future, faith that we can actually fix things. So, yes, we need a few more people of faith in Washington

Trump is the evil in the inside our country.

The IDF just detained the man who’s about to be elected US Congressman for NY’s 10th district, per his social media.
