Bad Bunny rolling into the Super Bowl with a demonic sexual performance in Spanish.

If an escalator that Jane Goodall had been on suddenly stopped moving, *no one* would have assumed it was because someone hated her.

Fat Man and Little Boy bombed.

I spotted a difference between Donald Trump and his audience yesterday:

""It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy," said Simon..." www.wnep.com/article/news...

We need details on this.

These men were building us homes. The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants. Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS. Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.

I'm a nurse...

The best compliment a reader can pay a columnist is to get to the end of a column, which I did with Steve Jiang's essay in the ST today. He has a point of view, and details of life in the city. A sophomore! They must be doing something right at Walter Payton. chicago.suntimes.com/next-voices/...

This is something we can all do.👇🏼 File a complaint with the FL and DC Bar to have Pam Bondi disbarred for not complying with the 9-0 Supreme Court ruling to return Mr. Garcia from El Salvador.

Who did this? 🤣

Canadians have more respect for themselves than, say, America’s big law firms

Once thing we can say for certain is that Donald Trump has been convicted of more crimes than some of the people he is deporting to a black hole in el salvador with no due process or recourse www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

If fraud and abuse are so out of control, where are the lawsuits? Where are the arrests? If it were real, they’d be parading the perpetrators—not just pushing headlines. Treat the so-called fraudsters like they do suspected gang members with soccer ball tattoos.

“The Food and Drug Administration’s top vaccine official, Dr. Peter Marks, abruptly resigned Friday, saying in a searing letter that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s aggressive stance on vaccines was irresponsible and posed a danger to the public.”

Not satisfied with purchasing a Presidential Election to become co-President, Sissy SpaceX now wants to buy himself a Supreme Court judge in Wisconsin. You can end his shopping spree, Wisconsinites! 🚫 💰 #VoteForJudgeSusanCrawford 🗳️ ✅ 👍 This is super important.

“.. A WIRED analysis shows that the account revealed the names of hundreds of Waltz’s personal and professional associates, including journalists ..” @wired.com www.wired.com/story/michae...

oh my god -- Comer thinks "editorial standards" literally refers to standards for editorials and is corrected by the NPR head

Every day a new home test is released that you can administer yourself to determine whether you're in a political cult Today the test is whether you can admit that Pete Hegseth has no business being Secretary of Defense

Comrade Tulsi has her work cut out for her.

A complete list of Republicans condemning texting classified war plans to journalists. 👇

Man who raped women, defrauded people who paid his scam charitable trust & university, incited the desecration of our Capitol, defrauded banks, obstructed justice, and failed to pay taxes on his father's big estate--without *any* consequences--wants you punished if you light up one unoccupied car.

"Maybe I’m being totally paranoid, but sometimes I’ll pull up at a stop sign and notice people staring at me and laughing, and I could swear they’re saying mean things about me under their breath. Is that insane?" theonion.com/am-i-ugly/

The Trump administration certainly has a knack for helping American lose their money.

The Commerce Secretary of the US is telling people to go out and buy stock in a specific company on national television.

For them to use the word battling when he's straight up breaking/violating federal laws and judges orders bothers me. They are normalizing all of this with soft language. It's a f-ing coup and he's a traitor and an enemy to the state.

I had to compose myself before posting—because this breaks a part of my soul. If you’re a contractor with a segregation policy, say it loud—so non-white dollars don’t fund your business. It won’t go how you think. And if anyone uncovers businesses doing this, put them on blast. #NAACP #BlackSky

THREAD: There’s a dire situation in Vietnam, at the largest Agent Orange spill in the country. When Trump and Marco Rubio cancelled foreign aid, froze funding and began dismantling USAID, those who were cleaning up the Bien Hoa air base had to halt work. 1/

In plain sight

It’s unreal - the DOD deleted its page for Charles Calvin Rodgers, a Medal of Honor recipient who was wounded three times while defending against three assaults on his base in Vietnam. Now the URL includes “DEI Medal of Honor.” There’s something about Rodgers I don’t even have to tell you

If you are still concerned about the survival of American democracy, it's time to acknowledge an uncomfortable truth: It's gone, y'all. We can't defeat fascism until we acknowledge its existence. http://dlvr.it/TJYGNj

Bet he'll answer the door, though. Let's get to his local offices and make some noise. Each office has a phone number and fax number.

Some are posting what I believe amounts to fear mongering in order to give Schumer and the others an excuse for their cowardice. You need to read what is actually being shared with us by members of Congress.

My Grandfather is 4th from the left, his B24 was shot down over France in December of 1944, he flew a total of 35 missions. I'm quite sure he didn't do all that so that a dictator could come to power I here 80 years later. We've never been remotely perfect as a nation, but this sickens me to my core

They are shitting their pants at Lockheed Martin right now. Hundreds of cancelations of F-35 orders would probably mean bankruptcy for the company unless government bailout. And that would mean HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS as that obese orange monkey likes to babble 😁

Walz: For three days on Fox News, you know the bung holes in the morning talking about, “Walz doesn’t even know who the leader is.” They know who their leader is because their lips are chapped from butt kissing one person

Canada is slashing its order of F-35 fighters from 88 to not more than 32. It will re-invest the billions saved to purchase 60 or more Swedish Saab Gripen E/F-39's. The USA is no longer a trustworthy ally. Simply.

I’m amazed how little coverage this story has gotten. They’ve burned well over $16 million to briefly hold 290 immigrants and several photo ops to GITMO. Just a total train wreck and they didn’t even mention it officially. Check out my latest. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Traitors

In response to what Schumer is saying on TV: A: The government is ALREADY SHUT DOWN. They’ve been shutting it down since Jan 20, for black people. Perhaps Chuck could acknowledge that?? B: They already have the reins of power. Chuck wants it open so he can continue playing pretend!

Thou shalt fire Chuck Schumer.

Schumer’s decision is an unconscionable surrender that shows he does not have what it takes to meet this moment, and the charade he pulled yesterday makes it even worse. Time for new leadership in the Democratic Party.

Just a friendly reminder that while voters won't have another chance to remove Schumer until 2028, the Dem senators can remove him at any time if they just get together. He may be able to stay in the senate, but he doesn't have to remain leader. It's time for something new.
