Updating my LEGO White House

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising.

Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.

I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.

Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

I've given this some thought and I actually think this is the single funniest way to fall to the floor that I've ever seen

the way it starts like he's doing lunges??? I'm literally weeping with laughter

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

"Autism: First diagnosed in 1943.
Tylenol: Not invented until 1955.
RFK Jr.: Born 1954.
Thus RFK Jr. is more likely to have caused autism than Tylenol."

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

Colbert-Kimmel 2028: You can’t shut us up

2022 — a confession:

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

On this day in 1991, Clarence Thomas’ hearings began. We didn’t listen to the brilliant Black woman who told us the truth. 33 years later, his seat still stains the Court. Maybe it’s time we started listening to the women in the room.

Gun Control Now.

Can’t quite put my finger on why, but somehow the actual doodle makes it so much worse and more disgusting.

And this is who is in charge of our health. Any Senator who voted to confirm this man should be impeached. Failing that they need to be voted out their next election. This is just one of many disgraces with this administration.

DOJ deputy chief: government will "redact every Republican" from Epstein client list The deputy chief later said his comments were not based on what he's learned from his role at the DOJ.

The Justice Department's acting deputy chief was caught on a hidden camera saying that the government will "redact every Republican" from an Epstein client list and "leave all the liberal, Democratic people."

Every time someone refers to the Epstein list as a “hoax”, the survivors are being re-traumatized.

Coming forward after a sexual assault is terrifying.

You’re often gaslit, blamed or disbelieved.

It takes incredible courage and these women deserve better than to be made into a conspiracy theory

No conference yet?

The statement on Giuliani, which for some reason frames his car accident as something that happened shortly after he "was flagged down by a woman who was the victim of a domestic violence incident," "immediately rendered assistance," got back on the road, and sometime later was rear-ended.

Creative writing prompt: Make a simple press statement about a car accident sound suspicious on at least three different levels.

if this was a movie, the accident would have been caused by Rudy taking a call, getting The News™️, and yelping so loud he scares the shit out of his driver who screeches to a halt, causing the poor girl behind them to crash into the car

and she wasn't even born on 9/11 so she has no idea who he is

Health officials from Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania met this week to consider coordinating their own vaccine recommendations, separate from the federal government.

Good.

This is why I can’t quit the internet🤣🤣🤣

Texas State Rep. Collier says she's forced by police to abruptly hang up a press call:

"I have to leave. They said it's a felony for me to do this. Apparently I can't be on the floor or in the bathroom."
