@rbreich.bsky.social : "Democrats ought to “defund Musk” and lay 'the groundwork for nationalizing Starlink and SpaceX.'" Hearing that, "free speech advocate" fElon came out of his K-hole, puffed up his pasty chest, & threatened Robert Reich. Musk sweaty? Hand him some Old Spice. 🧾 t2m.co/SLuarum

NEW: Omar Muñoz, a 72-year-old LA grandfather, was dragged out of his home by DHS agents and paraded in front of cameras for Trump's "voter fraud" crackdown. The DOJ used footage of his arrest for a promotional video. Omar is a green card holder in the US for 50+ yrs W @samrlevine.bsky.social

Trump Accounts would allow corporations or their owners to make donations by zip code. So, for example, a company trying to set up a data center could give money to families in that region. This is the logic of the bribe state which Trump has enabled and supports. bsky.app/profile/atru...

This is an (almost) unbelievable take. Yglesias is functioning as the personification of consultant/pundit class liberal leaning rot.

A great question by Will Stancil.

So "Tommy" has a set of affiliations and an agenda. He still doesn't believe in the rights of the Constitution.

How dare they. I mean, really. How dare they. Carry on Abdul. You're awesome and project the kind of strength Democrats need to emulate more.

If only we had Dutch style bike access to public streets.

This fact makes Texas the center of the fight.

Our public assets are not his things to claim. Impeach impeach impeach.

Our country is not Trump’s personal playground. Enough of this crap.

Masked Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian villagers on Friday, setting olive groves on fire and slinging rocks. Caught in the attack was Post photographer Heidi Levine. “They just kept kicking me and kicking me, like probably 50 times,” Levine said. https://wapo.st/4yt6dHY

“Videos of the attack, verified by The Times, show that the photographer, Heidi Levine, 63, who was wearing body armor with large press tags, was trapped behind the settlers. They began to beat her with bats and sticks, kicking her as she was prostrate on the ground” www.nytimes.com/2026/10/16/w...

They don’t care about current employees or creating jobs….

Brazil registered the lowest Amazon deforestation rate on record over the past year, allowing President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to claim success on a key issue that’s been at the center of his platform

Wonderful.

Not long ago, Elon Musk’s unprecedented election donations would have been illegal — but now it’s not thanks to a reckless Supreme Court and paralyzed FEC. Such spending should be made illegal again. bit.ly/4ykN5fi

"[M]ore than just another persecution of one of Trump’s political enemies. Rather, his government is tacitly declaring the citizenship of all foreign-born people provisional, their Americanness something that can be revoked. It’s a frontal attack on the idea of constitutional equality."

Trump says he brought in “$21 trillion” of investment vs. “less than $1 trillion” under Biden. Actual business investment: $14.5 trillion under Biden, $6.7 trillion so far under Trump. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart

Audiobooks made listening a solitary experience. Now live readings are taking literature out of headphones and turning it into a communal night out.

“Donald Trump is a traitor. And he’s not simply a traitor in the loose sense of someone who commits an act of betrayal…Trump is a traitor in the very particular sense laid out in the U.S. Constitution…’adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.’” www.americaamerica.news/p/donald-tru...

In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases. So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool. They can’t erase history. jan6memoryproject.org

AOC: "When no one was watching, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed was getting glasses for kids ... but when no one was looking, Mike Rogers was taking checks from pharmaceutical interests. When no one was watching, he went to go work for them in the revolving door after he left Congress."

NEW: The order to throttle Starlink (Starshield) came from the White House to the Pentagon. I still think Elon was involved, though. He’s currently a Pentagon employee as well www.reuters.com/world/europe...

Stuff you should know about Patrick Healy. From presswatchers.org/2025/07/the-... He defends the indefensible: presswatchers.org/2020/10/how-... He did this: presswatchers.org/2019/12/the-... He was #2 opinion editor when the NYT ran the most idiotic editorial ever: presswatchers.org/2022/03/the-...

this is beautiful

AGREED. And it's a lack of bravery built not only into the broad framework of most political stories (horserace, anyone?) but into the headlines, the ledes, the interviews, and the placements. Truly the NYT fails on so many levels.

Call me harsh. Call me unfair. But I say any secret donor to a project like this should be prosecuted just on general principle. When you step up to be a "secret donor" you lose your benefit of the doubt.

Why has it taken so long for this to come out clearly?

The privatization piracy of this intellectual theft is truly mind boggling.

Angie Nixon is amazing! When Ron DeSantis and his cronies started coming up with schemes to ban books, Nixon opened a bookstore that puts the banned books on display up front. The store places an emphasis on Black History and telling the whole story of America. Nixon fights for the right to read!

farritor and kliger are the two who i want to see in orange jumpsuits being hauled off to prison

A re-imagining and rebuilding that needs to lead Demicrato governance.

off the fucking rails. a rogue government.

When that Man is Dead and Gone (1941) - Protest song against Hitler by Irving Berlin - is enjoying a huge revival www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDkh...

BREAKING: Trump administration cut down more than 500 trees on Saturday at the East Potomac Golf Course after giving less than a full-day notice, with more tree-cutting planned, so plaintiffs challenging the effort went to court seeking a TRO tonight. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Can someone ask CBS News why Ted Koppel said that "Bannon's technically correct; they didn't have standing" in the 60+ cases Trump and his allies lost in 2020. This is verifiably false and is a GOP talking point. Many/most of the cases Trump lost were on the merits. Do they not fact check at CBS?

Not only should brooks and others shut up. But Ossoff is the best example in the country of a Democrat playing dominance politics and using it to control the whole terms of his race.

How this lazy intellectual got to his place of prominence is something I'll never understand. He's just awful.

Question reporters should be asking every Republican elected: Your president trusts Putin, praises Putin, is beholden to Putin, and wants to help Putin annex more of Ukraine. What are you going to do about it?

Just so you understand the depth of the cynicism: Trump’s failed war with Iran not only raised America's gas prices, but also global oil prices, which allowed Russia to make a gigantic amount of money and fund the killing of Ukrainians. ​And then they blame Ukraine for a disaster of

Trump just handed Putin a lifeline weeks before the midterms. Energy analysts say his Russian diesel deal won’t meaningfully lower prices. And a tanker that left Russia weeks before the announcement raises an even bigger question: How long was this in the works?

How much we have lost by not moving forward. Or just lost because we elected.a destructive chaos agent. This golf course saga is so minor, and so emblematic.

I can’t stop laughing about this nothing screams “we are not at all salty about multiple award-winning journalists quitting their jobs at this paper to start a new thing” like not even naming a single one of them

This is so shocking and appalling along just these lines.

Stop the study. Impeach him.

Nailed it. 🔨
