the way you actually fight fascism is by locking up as many of their leaders as you can as quickly as you can, and identifying all their sources of power and influence and breaking those. they control the courts? break their control of the courts. crush fox news. destroy the federalist society. etc

Stripe Update For those who aren’t aware, Stripe is one of the payment processors we’ve used since our early days. They have provided the “Pay with card” option on our checkout page for over 10 years. We spoke with Stripe yesterday about their content policies. They confirmed that they will not be able to support adult content that fits the following definition: “content designed for sexual gratification.” Stripe asked us to pass along the following message to our users: Stripe is currently unable to support sexually explicit content due to restrictions placed on them by their banking partners, despite card networks generally supporting adult content (with the appropriate registrations). Stripe has indicated that they hope to be able to support adult content in the future. We are in the process of talking with other payment partners to accept card payments that Stripe is unable to process. We disabled Stripe payments last week on pages identified as having “adult NSFW content.” Now that we have a more specific definition from Stripe, we may review that initial list for potential re-introduction. However, our long-term plan is to implement one or more new processors to avoid putting the platform at risk.

Itch update.

Lonnie G. Bunch III is the head of the Smithsonian. The first Black person to helm the institution and the founding director of the Blacksonian.

And his legacy will be completely overshadowed by his compliance with this authoritarian bullshit which should go against his ethical code as a curator.

El Salvador approves indefinite presidential re-election The constitutional amendment also extends presidential terms from five years to six and scraps election run-offs.

jonathan capehart, subbing for an msnbc host, just used the last minutes of the show to explain his departure from the washington post, specifically citing management's insistence on an optimistic vision of america while a corrupt president flouts the law and deploys troops to march american streets

Deskilling is real.

This is the world generative AI peddlers long for, one where people are incompetent without their service.

Don't outsource your brain to this shit. You'll regret it.

We are very far over the cliff here folks

‘Shameful’: Students, alumni say Brown deal with Trump administration disrespects trans students - The Boston Globe Students were pleased that Brown will not be paying the federal government, but took issue with the university adopting Trump’s policies on gender identity.

Glad to have been quoted in this @alexagagosz.bsky.social article by on Brown's disgusting capitulation to the Trump administration.

I remain in solidarity with all the students, staff and faculty impacted by this horrendous decision.

Unpaywalled in next skeet.

This is an object lesson in the importance of force and violence in politics. ICE is able to flaunt the law because they're willing to use both. Until members of Congress start showing up with breaching teams and armed security, the law is irrelevant. Just a piece of paper.

Is being a pedo a pre-requisite to be in the GOP? Sure looks that way...

Senator Warnock @warnock.senate.gov has reintroduced The John Lewis Voting Rights Act. 💥

Very little media coverage.

Top Dem calls on Trump’s IRS to investigate Epstein bank records: ‘Follow the money’ Ron Wyden’s sprawling bank probe demands Trump administration investigate financial transactions surrounding Epstein’s trafficking case

Epstein made $$$ billing himself as a tax wizard. Here's the catch: he wasn't an accountant or lawyer. His financial advice was ordinary at best. It looks like a cover story to hide his sex trafficking. My question: why didn't investigators follow the money?

Bill Burr Says ‘CNN and Fox News Are a F—ing Disease,’ Fires Back at ‘Horrible’ Conservatives Bashing Him as ‘Woke’: ‘They’re Racists’ and ‘Cowards’ Bill Burr says the conservatives calling him "woke" are "racists" and "cowards."

You don't need a Joe Rogan for the left. What we all need to do is take Bill Burr's lead. Every time a Republican goes after him, he doesn't debate him. He just insults them and tells them to go fuck themselves. We don't need one person to do this. We should all just do this.

“The president cut your health care so he could build himself a golden ballroom” is a pretty easy message to sell

my Instagram feed had several Dem meme accounts sharing MTG's posts as if they were actual solidarity and I just want to reiterate that if you fall for that you are the emperor of fools

her ultimate goal of achieving global Christofascism remains the same. she has briefly changed tactics. that's it

The rest of us think your conservative politics are horrific and destructive but none of us deny that you guys are Jewish. We just think that you suck. Obsessively trying to redefine the majority of your fellow Jews out of Jewishness so that you can claim “all Jews agree with me” is just pathetic.

Is there a term the Jewish community uses for Jews who think you’re not authentically Jewish if you don’t share quite closely their political views? Like “Ben Shapiro Jews” or something?

U.S. to halt 'de minimis' tariff exception for all low-value packages | CBC News The United States is suspending a "de minimis" exemption that allowed low-value commercial shipments to be shipped to the United States without facing tariffs, the White House said on Wednesday.

DHS' new ICE recruitment strategy: 50K signing bonuses, student loan forgiveness and Trump posters The agency, suddenly flush with cash, is looking to meet President Donald Trump’s goal of hiring 10,000 new ICE agents and deporting a million people a year.

Turns out there IS money to forgive student loans

BUT ONLY if you join the Trump Secret Police

It's a protection racket. It's "nice university you got there, it would be a shame is something happened to it" money.

When I post past revelations jn the Epstein Trump scandal, someone invariably replies “we knew this already.”

You might have known it, sure, but a lot of folks don’t.

People have succeeded in trashing TESLA's brand. A similar determined campaign can do the same to ICE.

Elon Musk documents subpoenaed in Jeffrey Epstein lawsuit by US Virgin Islands The Virgin Islands demanded any documents Musk has about Epstein’s involvement in human trafficking.

Wonder whatever happened with this.

It's amazing that he keeps doing this Harold Hill stuff scamming city by city

Trans women can no longer attend:
- Columbia University in New York
- Harvard University in Massachusetts
- Brown University in Rhode Island

And they tell us we'll be safe in blue states. And they tell us it's not a pogrom.
