MIKE JOHNSON: "We need people to believe in the integrity of the election system." Then STFU with your injecting doubt into election integrity

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

RAJU: But what evidence is there to prove the California election is rigged? MIKE JOHNSON: Look, some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream it's impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows instinctively that something is wrong here.

Delete your agents. Smash your computer. Drench your phone in acid. Then enroll in a creative writing class at the local community college and make something of yourself.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

With everybody using AI to write everything from emails to skeets, at what point do we just stop reading? Do you all really think letting AI write for you makes you seem smarter? I'd rather read two sentences of genuine human writing than a full page of slop any day

I don’t think they meant to make it look this comfy. “Does dementia come with snuggly kittens? Okay then!”

In the tech industry, 'Loss of Contract' can very well mean 'no longer hiring other people and we have my cousin Jim doing everything with ChatGPT now'

Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social

RENMAC: “.. While there is quite a bit of attention on AI driving layoffs, most of the reasons cited in this data set are about ‘closing,’ ‘economic conditions,’ ‘restructuring,’ and ‘loss of contract.’ AI is a comparatively small factor behind the January jump in layoff news.”

Can we just have a rule that if you are in the Epstein files you can’t be in government? Is there anybody we can keep?

If any of these goons on the street were required to make an oath to support and defend the Constitution, this shit is nothing new. Call it like it is. These aren’t Patriots in the streets. These are Oath Breakers.

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said the party agreed on three main goals: ° Require warrants in some cases and ICE coordination with state and local law enforcement ° Create a code of conduct and enforce it ° Require agents to wear body cams and not masks

washingtonpost.comDemocrats demand new ICE restrictions as government shutdown loomsAfter federal agents shot and killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, Senate Democrats say they’ll block a massive government funding package without policy changes.

The boredom and nonchalance of the other agents standing around this scene. The wiring is fucked beyond repair

Ordinary people are being so righteously brave in their defense of a Constitution that theoretically protects their rights, but does not protect their bodies from the government stormtroopers ripping it to shreds.

The fucking authoritarian entitlement of this guy. Same time he's trying to prosecute Comey and any other political rival while putting the military in the fucking streets. What about all of this is okay for the fucking MAGA worms?

Third-party organizations often find more success registering communities of color – particularly immigrant communities — than political parties or government officials. This is not surprising. Political parties and government officials are not known for their welcoming demeanor.
