just realized there were 2 Rachel Greenes on 1990s television and both their dads were medical doctors

When I teaching the Holocaust I note the Holocaust museum’s definition of a concentration camp is a prison whose inmates are denied due process. These are by definition concentration camps.

“English teacher” being responsible for people confusing elder and eldest really irks me.

My husband @captmarkkelly.bsky.social is a 25-year Navy combat pilot veteran. He served our country with strength, courage, and integrity. The President called him a traitor and demanded he be executed. It is dangerous and wrong. Americans need to stand up and say so.

Alabama’s political pipeline has turned into a locker room. Tommy Tuberville’s running for governor, his buddy for lieutenant governor. Both Republicans, one doesn’t even live in the state and the other’s never voted in his life. Yet they expect Alabama to hand them the ball. 🥴

If you’re upset about queer ppl being welcomed into your church, you are actually the one who doesn’t belong there.

“Christian” worship concerts in America, with merch for purchase is insane. That’s just a white supremacy concert

No Republicans should ever be permitted to live down Trump. It should be a generational shame that haunts their descendants. The idea that we should move on from this open criminal who waged war against his own country and global democracy *while he is still waging it* is quantum complicity.

Why doesn’t Mike Johnson have a Louisiana accent?

There were several arrests today all involving MAGA individuals who attempted to assault peaceful protesters. Arrests were reported in Michigan, Oregon, Florida, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. Additional incidents remain under investigation.

It should be very disturbing to everyone in America And every lawyer in particular That Pam Bondi-the top law enforcement officer in the US Won’t commit to following court orders Every state Attorney General should flag this testimony for use in future lawsuits against the Trump administration

"Jamal thought he was safe. He thought being in America would keep him safe. Jamal and I both thought that his working for a high-profile paper like the Washington Post would keep him safe. Maybe I thought I would be institutionally safe. We were wrong. Dead wrong."

A very timely take on the unedifying Riadh comedy fest, from a colleague of the journalist murdered by the regime there a few years back.

The right wing claim, not killing kiddies for profits is radical leftist hatred. Let that sink in.

Portland isn’t “war ravaged”. Chicago doesn’t need “saving”. Tylenol doesn’t cause autism. People still care about the Epstein files. Escalators breaking down is not news worthy or an emergency. Medbeds are not the answer. Keep resisting fascism. Ignore the distractions. Fight back.

If Columbia’s Petro’s can’t have his visa, countries barring convicted felons need to enforce their law and deny convicted felon DJT entry to their countries.

So, bondi deleted a government study showing that right-wingers commit more terrorism, and @matthew.flux.community put me onto it. Now there's another copy online here: www.scribd.com/document/918... and also here: www.slideshare.net/slideshow/wh... #USpol #law #terrorism #WhiteSupremacy

tell me which side is anti-comedy and anti-free speech again

Doesn't matter if Jimmy Kimmel is a wanker. If the US government is silencing comedians for joking about their favorite podcaster then you're in full blown authoritarianism territory

We are at the point in the honoring-Charlie-Kirk's-memory cycle when faculty are being fired for posting, without comment, Charlie Kirk's words. At the behest of politicians sworn to uphold the first amendment, and in public institutions covered by first amendment protections.

Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."

The FT matches Reuters’ reporting: “.. [Cook] declared on multiple documents that an Atlanta condominium at the centre of the controversy was a vacation home.” @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/e32d...

I just said something similar. It’s been 20 hours and we have nothing? No grainy CCTV footage? No vague description of a vehicle? No plea to people in attendance to send their footage to the FBI to help with the investigation? bsky.app/profile/cjmo...

Uhmmmm…FUCK YEAH. Certainly both capable and cruel enough to do so. We know nothing for certain at this time. But the speed with which the right wing has blamed “leftists” is amazing to behold. Almost identical to the response to the alleged shooting of TACO during the campaign.

Yesterday I wrote about how Turning Point put many of us on the Professor Watchlist What I didn't write about was the years of harassment from the right, including rape, deportation & death fantasies that played out in my messages, comments in the stories about me & voice mails. That’s his legacy.

There’s no reason to be flying our flags half-staff here in Oregon for unelected MAGA agitator Charlie Kirk for any amount of time, let alone 4 full days, especially when he advocated for Portland to be invaded along with other sanctuary cities & hated LGBTQ @tinakotek.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov

He also said some patriot should post bail for Paul Pelosi's attacker.

Need tips to reduce irritability instantly

The press: “Kamala, what is your position on updates to section 420(c)69 of the internal revenue code? Too slow, you dumb bitch, never gonna be president.” Also the press: “mr. Vance you’re so dreamy, tell us more about Ohio.”

He seeks to rule by decree because he cannot govern within the law.

Some veterans should organize an event for Tom Hanks and make up a new award to give him, maybe.

This part.

A porn star posing in front of a pedophile has something to say about school teachers…

Y’all. just start telling the doctors in Congress they should be mad Bobby Jr has a job they should’ve gotten. Even if you don’t mean it.

Stained glass should be more commonplace than it is. I don’t want the church scenes. Make it nature themed.

More news breaking at Bounces about Donald Trump's visit to the US Open men's final. The US Open has sent an email to broadcasters, obtained by Bounces, ordering them to censor any reactions or protests from the crowd to Trump's appearance. Read more here: www.benrothenberg.com/p/us-open-do...

donald trump is having congress establish a THIRD!!! January 6th committee. A THIRD!!! Yesterday, congress voted to establish the select committee. All in an attempt to rewrite what happened that day to make it favorable to donald... substack.com/@harrydunn/n...

I gotta push back when people (myself included at times) call everything not Epstein related a "distraction" It's more than "a distraction " everything being done is being done with purpose to rip the fibers of democracy apart. There are real life implications, I wouldn't call those distractions.

Never let anyone tell you the current anti LGBTQ policies of the DoD (not calling it the Dept of War) are motivated by anything except seething animus.

The United States of America killed North Koreans during a failed SEAL intelligence mission ordered by Trump in 2019 and nobody bothered to tell Congress. An egregious undermining of Article I powers www.nytimes.com/2025/09/05/u...

I need some folks still on TT to go to the WH account and tag Sony Pictures on the video with Will Ferrell. Will has never been a MAGA supporter and Sony should issue cease and desist to WH over using their property without permission.

He’s going to get the Nobel War Prize.

This is bad, bad stuff, but it's extra bad, bad while the military is deployed to patrol American streets, ostensibly to fight crime. The administration continues to creep over every constitutional and legal right and rule meant to protect us from tyranny. Gift Link www.nytimes.com/2025/09/04/u...
