I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

It's well-documented that the president maintained a years-long friendship with the world's most notorious child sex trafficker. It might strike you as odd there aren't direct allegations of Trump engaging in child sex trafficking.. except there are. There are SO MANY. They just never get reported!

One person does not want you to see this movie. But everyone else does.

Let’s all pre-order @alexgibneyfilm.bsky.social ‘s MUSK documentary. It’s essential viewing and certain “powers that be” want it to disappear.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

I like that Vetinari, to most people who are only vaguely aware of him, is simply very scary to the people who actually have to interact with him on a regular basis, he is abjectly terrifying

interestingly this interest in black voters doesn’t extend to the republican effort to deprive them of federal representation, nor do they seem interested in asking whether republican candidates are burdened by the fact that trump talks like a klansman

Freedom of movement is the most fundamental human right; everything else is built on top of it. The 20th century was a campaign to smother that freedom and we should not let it win

And so trying to separate the Affordability Agenda from the Accountability Agenda is dumb. Our economy is being wrecked by the Unitary Executive.

President Trump temporarily waived clean-air rules for industrial facilities that spew cancer-causing gases. Then his appointees worked to gut the regulations altogether. Our investigative reporter Eric Lipton explains how corporate interests took power inside the EPA. Read more: nyti.ms/4il3336

I guess this is one way to keep young people interested in working for Republicans. "So, yeah, benefits include 401k, FSA, a full pardon, and dental."

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

It’s a subject that makes a lot of people uncomfortable and calling them corrupt and evil is easier. But the truth is that Republicans have a rape problem—one that they celebrate.

Extraordinary. I can't believe your story may be the first time the Republican's acceptance of the rape and abuse of woman and children has been spoken of in such clear terms... considering how goddamn long it's been going on.

*when a dem is in power* The tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants *when a republican is in power* criticizing the government is treason actually

Given the shift in media ownership over the Trump era, Democrats REALLY need to learn to ignore media handwringing now. Because I have no doubt their every move for accountability will be attacked from every possible angle.

That it'll fail because they lack sufficient consolidation and centralized control does not make it trivial that the president of the United States is trying to steal elections and produce an illegitimate sham Congress. It is open rebellion against the Constitution and morally tantamount to treason.

"butt naked" is funnier and conveys the exact same meaning

Merriam-Webster@merriam-webster.com

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

❗️Zelensky says Starlink and Starshield speed restrictions are still in place and interceptor deliveries needed against Russian ballistic missiles remain delayed. “This is a real problem, because the Russians attack us almost every day,” he said. #Ukraine

the president is insane and its a shame the gop continue to do nothing. the gop hates us and this country.

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history. Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.

Every Airbnb instruction list is like, "Hey, you dumb fuck. You wanted to stay in my shitty investment property? Asshole. Fine, I'll fucking let you, dipshit. The water heater is broken, by the way. Fix it or I'll charge you $200. And no laughing past 7 pm! We record everything."
