Alex Pretti's father delivered a message to U.S. Attorney for Minnesota Dan Rosen and Attorney General Todd Blanche: “Look in your heart and do what is right, share the evidence now so prosecutors can follow the facts and hold these men accountable. Do your job and stop shielding Alex’s killers.”

The citizen who yelled "Shove that ballroom up your fat ass" is, in this hard time, a patriot. Honestly, what is left to say about this level of misrule? What careful critique hasn't been already offered? What reasoned response to this full-on run at fascism and kleptocracy remained unspoken?

#Florida AG James "Oopsie!" Uthmeier says he's now pushing for "fetal personhood" and an end to ALL abortions in the state, even in cases of rape & incense & even if the life of the mother is at stake. www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/f... via @jimdefede.bsky.social

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet…

If still debating whether Donald Trump or Elon Musk willfully crippled Ukraine's missile defense, helping to slay innocent civilians, you are a rube. If the U.S. President had no role, then an oligarch governs national security. If not, the U.S. President serves Russia. Both answers are mortifying.

Democrats won, Democrats lost. Republicans won, Republicans lost. Until this tinpot fascist lost an election, this republic and our ability to select our own government was presumed. It was the cornerstone. Now we no longer believe in our own process. He is destroying our democracy. With intent.

How is this brand of political engagement and advocacy entitled to any non-profit tax-exempt status? How is this is any difference than the messaging from a political organization or PAC? How the fuck how?

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Republicans want to make it illegal for Republicans to lose elections because they don't believe the American people should be free to govern ourselves.

That buainess about God delivering himself in human form so that he could feel the actual suffering of his every creation and then using that suffering to redeem all? That lofty bit eluded these sadists in its entirety. Whatsoever they do to the least of other people, hey, they were asking for it.

How about your fair fucking share of taxes and stop trying to fool the rest of us by sweeping the crumbs off your table.

Step by step, day by day, Americans experience the big platforms becoming Orwellian political censors. The US needs a federal government that will tax them and break them up; the democratic world needs to learn the lesson and protect itself.

Erdogan has now taken over 5 major news outlets in Turkey. Meanwhile, what is the supposed leader of the free world doing? Going after political opponents & banning media outlets from covering him. Trump's crackdowns only embolden authoritarians the world over.

Any legacy media outfit that’s still paying that prissy, supercilious turd one thin dime deserves to go under.

“'The recent decisions to shutter nearly complete offshore wind projects and to pay Total Energies hundreds of millions of dollars to renounce wind leases are an assault on logic and the American taxpayer,' he wrote...” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

1. Trump’s new White House press secretary Katie Zacharia is a prolific user of Truth Social where she regularly promoted Pizzagate and QAnon conspiracies, accusing elites in the Democratic Party and Hollywood of running child sex rings and eating people.

Remembering my dear friend John Prine, on what would have been his 80th birthday this Saturday. I miss him deeply, as all of us who love him do. What a gift he will always be.

In mid-2025, Congress passed over $4 trillion in tax cuts that mostly benefit the rich and corporations. In the 1st year following the passage of OBBBA... Corporate Profits - 26.6% ⬆ Consumer Prices - 4% ⬆ Real Hourly Wages - 0.1% ⬆ Tax cuts don't trickle down. We need to make work pay again.

Your electric bill is up as much as 30%. PG&E's CEO took home $63.6 MILLION. Duke's CEO took home $51.2 MILLION. And both companies paid NEGATIVE federal tax rates. That's not a coincidence. That's a rigged system. Tax the rich.

Please speak out against Roadless Rule deadline-tomorrow!

During impeachment, the following happened: 1) Rudy visited known Russian spy Andrii Derkach 2) Bill Barr got copy of Hunter Biden's laptop 3) DOJ dropped Burisma corruption investigation started in 2016 4) Bill Barr set up a side channel to ingest Rudy's RU dirt Impeachment slowed none of that.

Ossoff: The money that they took from you when they slashed Medicaid and defunded hospitals and nursing homes—They’re taking that money to buy corrupt, taxpayer-funded political ads on national television to try to promote the failed and broken president…

Make them crawl. This is now our American republic. We are the shithole nation.

When an insurance company is deciding whether to pay for your medical treatment, it generates a file, which should contain all records associated with your case, including documents explaining why the claim was denied. You have a right to see this file. (Published May 2023)

Arlington Cemetery is hallowed ground. A final resting place for our fallen heroes who were brave enough to serve. How dare this five-time draft dodger dishonor them by trying to erect a monument to his own vanity? Veterans will not let him get away with it.

To lose visitors in the year you HOST THE WORLD CUP and celebrate a big anniversary is truly incredible.

Visitors to the US are on track to drop by almost two million year-on-year. “We’re the only major country in the world losing visitation,” the head of the US Travel Association said. “It’s mind-boggling.” www.semafor.com/article/09/2...

The other day, Andrew Bailey, who stepped down as MO AG in hopes of becoming FBI Director, stepped down. REMARKABLY, one report said he routinely told Kash he was violating the Constitution. Today, DOJ did something profoundly corrupt in hopes of politicizing 8th C, which covers MO, MN, and IA.
