Not all heroes wear capes.

This piece by Larry David doesn't just skewer Bill Maher but anyone platforming fascists, Nazis & their sympathizers. It's absurd to give evil leaders a platform, to humanize them & help amplify their lies or do anything other than challenge their malice. www.thedailybeast.com/larry-david-...

I'm struggling so hard to give a fuck about a bunch of rich people who paid the 3rd richest person on Earth $500,000 to go to space for a few minutes, while there are folks here who can't even afford the basics to survive.

The 2024 election was not only rigged it was a coup d'état. The biggest failure was not arresting Trump and his conspirators due to some false sense of "peaceful transition" no matter what.

Insider trading much? Didn’t Martha Stewart go to prison for that? Just curious 🤔 Good morning all!

"Graber, who defines her politics as “anti-authoritarian,” sees Bluesky as a corrective to prevailing social media that subjects users to the whims of billionaires...I think this self-styled tech-monarch thing is worth questioning. Do we want to live in that world?” www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

This is to perfect! 🤣🤣🤣

Nothing says "100% Opsec" (by our SecDef #DUIHireHegseth) like the admin of the Felon47 #SignalGang's other group, "JD Vance Humps His Couch." 😂 Chatter like "👊🏽🇺🇲 🔥" fit in well w/ "how to best protect your sensitive man parts against the sharp springs inside voluptuous crack of your La-Z-Boy." 🤣

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

The Blue Report is amazing. The most clicked on articles are right here theblue.report

📌NOTE: Immediately after the vile attack on Zelensky by Putin's puppets Friday, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries should have called a joint press conference and explained to the American public the significance, heinousness and danger of that sickening surrender. 📌They should STILL be talking now.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 ✊

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

@kylec.bsky.social Hey Kyle. Love your work. Any other journalists you recommend? Trying to build out my BlueSky follow list with the best investigative work out there. Thanks!

Hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahahaha times infinity

We’re supposed to just take Elon’s word that he’s found “massive” fraud in federal systems he took over? The same guy they found committing fraud on his fellow gamers?

Trump: “We have people that shouldn’t be on (social security), and those people we have to weed out.” I’ve paid into social security since I was 17—it wasn’t a donation to the treasury. When the time comes: Bitch Better Have My Money! Hands! Off! Social! Security!

USAID TRIVIA:

I keep remembering when Republican reps blew past the magnetometers in the Capitol and nothing really ever came of it.

DEMOCRATS in Congress, take note! 📌 Reps. Judy Chu (D-CA) and Gwen Moore (D-WI) walked into Mike Johnson’s office unannounced and demanded answers on why Elon Musk’s people got access to a sensitive Treasury payment system. More of this energy, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social , @schumer.senate.gov

I know people latched on to this to feed a lot of conspiracy theories at the time, but after what Musk’s done in the interim I don’t think there’s a downside for Democrats to quote it to vividly dramatize how much we don’t know what Musk is up to and what he’s technologically capable of doing.

This is also a valuable resource for sky users theblue.report

Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them at one point as “targets.” The website lists mostly Black employees.

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

This might end up being Trump’s most historic mistake: Foreign aid is not just charity—it’s an investment in stability, diplomacy, and American interests and it saves American lives too.

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

Remember if you are silent when the boot is on someone else’s neck, you will find you have no voice when the boot inevitably ends on your’s too.

Sorry, Mexico and Canada, we elected a dimwitted shitheel

I would love to see the White House Medical Unit’s drug log from the last two weeks.

Coffee prices have now hit a record high just one week into Donald Trump's term. We must hold the line and hold him accountable. www.wsj.com/economy/trad...

Plutarch reckons that Sulla got so excited watching someone who defied him being strangled that he burst something inside himself and died. Not that I'm hoping history repeats itself. (I wouldn't want an innocent magistrate strangled...)
