@americanair.bsky.social hey American! More frustration with you guys. I’ve missed my flights due to your delays. I need someone to make this right and get me out of economy seating which you’ve placed me in tomorrow night. I’m very upset.
The stories & photos from today’s voting rights marches in Alabama deserve to be seen by people who weren’t able to stand there in person. If this piece moves you, please share it widely & help make sure these voices aren’t lost in the noise of a crowded news cycle. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
As an American, there are always disappointments to register and arguments to engage; amid the chaos of our battered, monied attempt at self-governance, dissent is constant.
But this feeling of being utterly ashamed of America and embarrassed to the core by its president is new, raw and unnerving.
News broke today that Russia proposed faking an assassination attempt on Viktor Orban to override all logic and ensure an emotional victory for him there. Makes sense. This tactic already worked in the USA.
First Amendment violation, Brendan.
I wonder if a class-action lawsuit (with 320 million of us being the injured class) might change your mind.
Do this and ALL of us will see you in court.
NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.
BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned
NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?
Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask:
"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"
BREAKING: WATCH the full 60 Minutes CECOT segment here. This was sent to me anonymously. It appears to be the segment CBS' Bari Weiss killed. www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...
Share and tell CBS to air this! Sharyn Alfonsi, the veteran “60 Minutes” correspondent who reported a segment about migrants sent to the El Salvadoran torture prison CECOT, just sent a blistering letter to colleagues, sounding the alarm that Bari Weiss spiked the story for political reasons.
Curzon is missing. I let him out back to do his business and he just disappeared. I've looked and I haven't found them. Anybody if you're in the Potomac/ Bethesda area please keep an eye out.
The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.
The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.
Where is the MAHA outcry?
I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?
Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed.

The president went on TV to attack political opponents and blame them for the killing of Charlie Kirk, even though we don’t know who shot him.
If there is anything this man can do to worsen the situation, he will do it. Despicable.
Wes Moore on vaccine mandates: "We are not going to give in to conspiracy theorists...I do feel for people in these other states who are having to go through this chaos and having conspiracy theorists who are continuing to drive your vaccine policies. My message to them would be to come to Maryland"
I’ll wake up tomorrow morning & send this to every editor I can think of. @andreapitzer.bsky.social nails the failings of the US media in this piece: a world-historical abdication of journalistic & civic responsibilities in service of self promotion above all else. The most vile form of betrayal.
I wrote about journalists who look away. From Maxim Gorky's shameful behavior in 1929 at Solovki and the death of George Polk in Greece in 1948, I move on to our current national crisis, which grows a little more urgent every day, despite those who continue to act as if nothing is happening.
Citizens Bank's customers deserve to know that it finances ICE detention giants GEO Group and CoreCivic. If you live near one of its private bank offices or retail branches, please consider organizing efforts to inform your community.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today
The most important words of our Constitution are the first three: We the People. We have no Kings here, no monarchs, no slaves and no subjects.
We the People.
A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.
One of Pope Francis's "popemobiles" is being transformed into a mobile healthcare unit for children and sent to Gaza.
In one of his final wishes before his passing, Francis asked that the vehicle be used to help injured and malnourished children in the area.
Hegseth needs to be fired.
The intel he shared via Signal, including to his wife, was sent to him on a secure channel.
He knowingly exposed our pilots to unnecessary danger with his show boat antics.
Pete Hegseth in 2016: "How damaging is it to your ability to recruit or build allies with others when they are worried that our leaders may be exposing them because of their gross negligence or their recklessness in handling information?"
