Lawmakers plan to introduce a bill Thursday that would ban DeepSeek’s chatbot application from government-owned devices over new national-security concerns. Personally, I would not recommend downloading the app. #Deepseek

The world’s richest 1% captured nearly two-thirds of all new wealth created in 2024, while millions still struggle to afford basic necessities. Inequality isn’t just rising; it’s skyrocketing.

I don’t know about the rest of you, but these two need to go away now. Buhbyeee.

"That wasn't the sound of fear. That was the sound of civility" -- Joe Scarborough makes an impassioned defense of the decision he and Mika made to defend Fox News from David Frum as well as their meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago

When you have your mother come onto @FoxNews to try to clean up your own mess, you have bigger issues to deal with than trying to be hired as Secretary of Defense.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record. They run them bc people react to them the most. If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change. It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Winter transforms Ukraine into a captivating scene❄️ From the snow-capped Carpathians, frost-covered city streets and tranquil charm of small villages, the season unveils a beauty worth cherishing. This is what we are fighting for. Help us protect it: u24.gov.ua/donate/defend

Social Security is considered “off budget”. It’s not included in the general fund, meaning it’s ripe for picking by Congress when they need $$$. THAT is why the fund will be insolvent in 6 years unless Congress fixes it. Again, let your reps know how you feel about that by calling their offices.

How’s it going in Syria, russia? 3-day operation finally happened, ain’t it? Here’s what we think: Syria will be free. Ukraine will be free. russia will be beaten and obsolete.

If a new pandemic hits the US next year, we’ll face: An NIH director who backed “let COVID rip” An HHS Sec favoring raw milk over vaccines An FDA chief who predicted COVID would end by 4/2021 A CDC head who promoted the debunked vaccine-autism link In a word, the US is fucked!

Rogan has no idea what he’s talking about. He needs to tap out. #Ukraine 🇺🇦

The Kyiv Independent@kyivindependent.com

Prominent Ukrainians including former professional boxer Wladimir Klitschko, and former Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba have publicly condemned Rogan's statements. The Kyiv Independent went out on the streets of Kyiv to see what people thought about them.

Do it! Do it often.

Should you block right wing trolls on here? Short answer: yes The entire reason so many people fled the other place for threads, spoutible, and other alternatives is to escape the toxicity. If you block them, they'll get bored and leave.

PRO TIP: MAGAts have figured out that, after many of us left Twitter, that they really have no purpose in life without being able to troll us. Don't let anyone shame you into thinking that it's somehow wrong or cowardly to BLOCK these assholes. This is OUR good place. Block those dumb fuckers.

Let us not forget this important fact. Tulsi Gabbard is a Russian asset. 👈🏻

Tulsi Gabbard didn't "betray the Democrats". She was thrown out by the Democrats after being "outed as a Russian asset"

If I lived in Ohio, I would not be happy with a religious school to have access to tax-payer funds. Those funds should be for public schools, not privately managed religious schools. #SchoolChoice #separationofchurchandstate

apnews.comOhio offers a new way to use public money for Christian schools. Opponents say it’s unconstitutionalAround the country, advocates for Christian education have been finding ways to tap taxpayer money used more typically for public schools.

I couldn’t agree more, Brian.

The Republicans control the Senate despite representing fewer Americans than Democrats. They control the House thanks solely to extreme gerrymanders. They will confirm anyone who Trump puts forward. If a political party could be a participation trophy, it would be today’s GOP.

If they teach the Bible, will they also teach the Quran? Also, there are other religions to consider as well. I mean, we need to be inclusive. I’m a right? Or is it freedom of religion for me not thee?
