Monstrous Regiment

Not a big story, it's just the Attorney General working with an imprisoned pedophile to help cover up the pedophile President's crimes conducted with his best friend for 15 years, a pedophile who the President sent, as a birthday card, a drawing of a naked adolescent girl.

Sen. Adam Schiff tells NBC that Pete Hegseth and "anyone who has knowledge of what happened" should testify before the Senate on Ukraine's Starlink disruptions. "Somebody is lying here. Maybe they're all lying in different ways, but we need to find out."

Wild new story from @natlash.bsky.social Bird flu has been raging uncontrolled on a mink farm for two months. Flu experts fear it could spark a devastating human pandemic. But officials haven’t acted, instead prioritizing the financial interests of the fur trade. www.propublica.org/article/bird...

A week after ProPublica published an investigation that found $470 million in SNAP benefits were stolen from Americans last year alone, the Trump administration announced a new rule to add microchips, which are more secure, to EBT cards.

boy it sure seems like the main threat to democracy everywhere across the globe is right wing media and certain social media companies

A trust owned by Texas AG Ken Paxton and his wife, state Sen. Angela Paxton, invested in a company led by a convicted fraudster. The firm and its affiliates later sent the trust 15 payments totaling $83K before and during the AG’s impeachment trial. w/ @texastribune.org

I keep seeing posts from Republicans pretending to be insulted by Barack Obama's Cheesecake Factory quip because most Americans supposedly think it serves haute cuisine. First, it does not. And you know that. Second, his remark wasn't about the food. It was about the over-the-top golden decor.

West Virginia has been part of a nationwide push, partially funded by billionaire-backed political groups, to use taxpayer dollars to fund private schools. Among the proponents are the Koch family network and Pennsylvania billionaire Jeffrey Yass.

📌There's no way all this is just some damn coincidence: 1. Ukraine whacks Russia. 2. Lindsey Graham leads bipartisan efforts hitting Russia w/ more sanctions. 3. Graham suddenly drops dead. (Like so many of Putin's enemies.) 4. Trump immediately cancels sanctions, and buys Russian diesel. <more>

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

what a night

Well, well, well…. An analysis of voter registration records reveals Republican operative Scott Presler had 3 out-of-state voters use his Pennsylvania address to vote in the 2024 election. This is what voter fraud looks like.

I will vote for the candidate who is willing to turn the Rose Garden into a native plant pollinator garden in honor of Ladybird Johnson. Texans used to be ahead of their time. #Talarico

Happy Saturday!

Rep. Robert Garcia asked a company with ties to Don Jr. for 17 sets of records on a $620 million Pentagon loan. Vulcan swore politics played no part. One sentence in ProPublica's reporting says otherwise, and it's a quote. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-fire...

Medicare for all. NOW.

U.S. citizen Ricardo Gonzalez was brutally detained by ICE in Long Beach while he yelled for help and said his arm was broken. This is a pattern of abuse and violence from ICE. No one is safe and our communities are being terrorized. We need ICE out.

HOLY SHIT

Looks like one can pre-order the Musk movie on Apple+ and that’s good because there are only 2 theaters within 25 miles of Los Angeles where one watch Alex Gibney scoop out Elon Musk’s tender guts one disgusting teaspoon at a time. tv.apple.com/us/clip/musk...

99% of GOP talking points can be knocked down if reporters do third grade level research and pushback. It rarely happens, which is why it's so jarring when you actually see it 🙃

Greed

Writers Guild speaks out about tech platforms squashing the @alexgibneyfilm doc about Elon Musk: “A small handful of billionaires now own virtually every major media company, news outlet, social media platform and are demonstrating how this unchecked concentration threatens democratic discourse.”
