Our health care system in America is disgusting. A clear indication that our government doesn't give a fuck if we live or die.

Karoline Leavitt’s husband warned a Fox News reporter that she needs to be “very safe”prior to the shooting incident. Fox News abruptly cut the reporter’s audio after revealing the weird interaction.

TRUMP, throwing insults at Pope Leo: “weak on crime” “terrible for foreign policy” “catering to the Radical Left” “owes his position to me” “sit down and mind your own business” POPE LEO, unbothered: “We are called to love.”

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle... antiwar messaging that is still as relevant today as it was during the war in Vietnam. youtube.com/shorts/bzkts...

Fuck.

it's incredible that as long as you do the right amount of bigotry you can just rob the country blind and enough people will not care, even though those same people will be filled with incandescent rage if someone uses food stamps to buy a 12 pack of diet coke

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

GOP: the mail is secure enough to receive your photo ID, social security card, your debit and credit cards, your stimulus checks, and your tax returns Also GOP: the mail is not safe enough for voting

I guess in addition to the Florsheims, 47 is now handing out BVDs:

HAVE YOU WRITTEN YOUR CONGRESSIONAL REPS TODAY? Edition 2,335,888: Given that 47 takes money from foreign donors, it appears that this latest fundraising email is nothing short of a promise to commit treason. people.com/trump-promis...

A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔

Best description of our current situation yet.

Before and after you sell your soul to the devil.

Spraying pepper spray into a MOVING vehicle. JFC. It's a miracle the driver didn't crash into someone.

Sakamoto and Nakai, the figure skating silver and bronze medalists from Japan, form a heart shape with their arms around Alysa Liu, the gold medalist from the US

I can get behind this.

CBS can try to obey in advance by pressuring Stephen Colbert to silence his interview with James Talarico, the gifted communicate running for the U.S. Senate in Texas, but people can see what’s happening—& can listen to the convo on YouTube. Brendan Carr & the FCC’s free speech attack will backfire.

This video is giving me hope today. youtube.com/shorts/zoOuy...

Yes.

Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries. One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home. Abolish the billionaire class:

Re-watching "The West Wing" on Netflix as an antidote to doomscrolling. It is... somewhat helpful.

My boss now and forever Thank you!

To be clear, the regime is holding the people of MN hostage, and the ransom is the information they need to rig the 2026 election.

Democrats must refuse to vote for any funding bill that increases ICE’s budget and refuse to fund DHS until ICE’s abuses of power are stopped. The government funding deadline is January 30th. Call your reps today: (202) 224-3121 https://indivisible.org/campaign/how-rein-ice-now

Any one of us could be detained for hours by ICE despite being a U.S. citizen. Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night. Any one of us could be the next to be brutalized by ICE for speaking out. Authoritarianism hurts all of us.

This warms the cockles of my heart

We can’t ignore the gendered dynamics of what we just saw katemanne.substack.com/p/renee-good...

@patwashburn.bsky.social Important Kitty News!

Makes me yearn for journalism of yore -- thoughtful questions with appropriately challenging followups. People speaking their minds in complete sentences and in an unfailingly civil tone. youtu.be/OraxqbUjpHw?...

good morning

This only happens to you once

So they make no apology, no acknowledgement of the fact that they suspended Kimmel because the FCC threatened them, not because of the content of his remarks (which were factual and not insensitive in the least). That's what you call a buck short and a day late, Disney. Hulu stays off in my house.

A brilliant movie and so sorely needed right now.
