I still have my badge from interning on the Hill. What a blast it was. Why am I dressed like a pilgrim, 🤔

Lock 🔒 him up forever.

🚨 NEWS: A federal judge has ruled that the Trump DOJ ILLEGALLY fired prosecutor Maurene Comey, ordering retroactive reinstatement and backpay. The judge ripped the DOJ’s defense as bordering on “frivolous” and rejected its sweeping claims of executive power.

I hope his family moves him to #Barcelona #Spain and he becomes the new Lamine Yamal in 15 years. And America continues its longstanding #sports mediocrity due to its #racism.

Pele vibes ⚽️

They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

This angers me. A whole toddler that should be celebrated for being GREAT at something. Gets police called instead... If that ain't being Black in America.

Wait, this was real? I saw the original headline only and assumed it was something kind of bad satire. We are so lost as a country.

I spoke to the mom of the 3-year-old soccer star who was left "thinking he did something wrong" after a league official called police "due to a disturbance between parents" The youth sports league said they launched a review and reached out to the family

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

New from Important Context and @assignedmedia.org: Reporter @billiejsweeney.bsky.social took a look at the Trump administration’s anti-trans attacks on Title IX hurt all sexual assault survivors. Must read story. www.importantcontext.news/false-protec...

Matty with another sizzler. Setting aside the obvious “we don’t want fascism to win anywhere” rebuttal, you know what’s in Brazil? A whopping 60% of the fucking Amazon rainforest. Jair Bolsonaro, Flavio’s dad, oversaw a surge in deforestation. Oh, and we already just missed 1.5 degrees.

Don’t forget the the fact that employer provided healthcare is eating up a big portion of an employee’s paycheck

Inflation eating up worker pay. Household debt and student loan defaults at a record high. 8 million people have lost healthcare. 5 million people have lost food stamps — including 2 million children. Gas prices skyrocketing. Trump says, "Pretend I'm on the ballot." Please do.

She’s finally starting to get it

Billionaires want you to believe taxing their extreme wealth is too radical and that it can’t be done. Baloney. Economist Gabriel Zucman debunks their lies. Watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNg2Uea6uUs

What an extraordinary night in Belgrade Serbia, yay Gen Z!

Humbled to have the 44th president with us in our movement to demand more for working people in Michigan. Change is in the air. 🤝

Congratulations to the student led new ruling party of Serbia, for their defeat of ethnic cleansing fan Aleksandar Vucic. It’s a beautiful night for people-powered pro-democracy movements! Wow. 📷 Armin Durgut

We were the damn hippies opposing David Duke campaign, Heritage Foundation Operation Rescue abortion protests decades ago. Signed battle scarred damn hippie

Actually it is Gulf of Texaco & Cancer Alley lobbyist greed, the death panel spreading Cancer like butter on toast. Grew up around all dat. Lost 75% of family to cancer in two generations. Both parents had leukemia on their death certificate. See why i worked with Greenpeace decades ago?

I've heard of this gulf... 👇🏾

Ohio’s biggest newspaper broke its own rules to endorse Amy Acton, calling Ramaswamy’s vile attack ad disqualifying. “Using childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it crosses a line Ohioans should defend, whatever their party.” thedailybeast.com/trumps-maga-...

Elon musk is anti free speech. Gavin Newsom was a fool to cave to this horrible merger. www.reddit.com/r/MediaMerge...

Lula has won a fourth term in spite of Meta, after Brazil’s electoral court had to order platforms to stop throttling his reach while they boosted his Trump-backed opponent. Big Tech tried to rig this but the Brazilian people had the final say ✊

let's fucking go

Get ready for the Cons to start repaying wealthy donors and corporations with massive tax cuts and program elimination. What took years to build with meetings and consultation will be destroyed by a stroke of the pen. Air, water, and food regulations are now all in jeopardy. Look at trump's America.

Jesse Ventura: “If Donald Trump would have gone in the military, he would have been the guy that wet his bed, cried for his mom, went hysterical, and would be carted out in the middle of the night. The man’s a coward. He’s a bully. All bullies are cowards. That’s why they’re bullies”

Increasingly clear that these tech elites have become entirely detached from their own humanity.

cool, cool

Yay Brazil! Yay Lula and democracy! www.nytimes.com/live/2026/10...

LET’S GO, LULA!!!!

Perfect. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Wealth is NOT synonymous with intelligence.

Because Rafael Cruz is universally loathed: Here he is getting brutally booed by the Austin crowd at the F1 podium. USA 🇺🇸

Musk is panicking about his recent anti-Ukraine moves following bi-partisan demands to bring his business under scrutiny, and perhaps control.
