Polling shows who people believe are at fault. Let them sit in it.

Maybe it's just from where I'm sitting, but I really wish the media would stop inviting Mike Johnson (and most Rep reps and senators) on air to lie during the shut down. They should be working, not platformed to spread misinformation. Let them put out press releases.

1. This is one of the most insane statements ever delivered by a presidential spokesperson in U.S. history. Totally disconnected from reality.

2. There is either going to be a civil war or abject Democratic surrender to autocracy. They are telling this you, to your face, in explicit terms.

The only facts they believe are red, white, and blue Trump branded lies.

I swear I'm going to commit more of my energy to this platform. The way the other platforms operate is becoming too much. Too many ads. Too much content I never asked to see put in front of me. Bots galore.

Straight up

Writers, I hope you are all having a good day

It's feeling real inflation-y out here.

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

My Threads started acting up and I didn't care enough to want to fix it.

The NBA finals could really benefit if the NBA cared to advertise the sport, the players, the skill and talent, and not just parlays and betting lines.

Creative planning day. 🙃

Read a book.

I don't know why I'm not on here more.

They kill what they fear. It's why they aim at the future. Burn books. Bomb children.

This broke me.

I think I want Indy to win.

Where's San Antonio at?

They actually got Living Colour for Punk's entrance. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

The federally-funded research university is almost surely the single greatest American invention ever.

And it probably has some of the best ROR in federal spending, both in its contribution to the US specifically, but also to the greater world overall.

I doubt anything comes close.
