Spain MEP Irene Montero: “Send your son, Donald Trump — If you want war, send your own people to the front line. We in Spain want our children, our daughters, & our loved ones at home, safe. We don’t want war — those who want war should send their own children”
Was reading about Resident Evil on TV Tropes, but one "life imitates art" moment too many later, and that's enough troping for a day
even criticism of Fox News has to be wrapped in this weird kayfabe that it isn't one of the world's most successful propaganda operations
It turns out the U.S. did a “double tap” attack just as emergency responders were arriving at the girls’ elementary school. This is what the Russians do routinely in Ukraine.
That’s a war crime under international humanitarian law.
Here are the parts of a fighter plane
RIP Neil Sedaka, whose original version of this is backed by 10cc and absolutely slaps
Trump is not a stranger to murder.
our political process would be so much more efficient if liberals would just acknowledge that leftists know what we're talking about instead of making us argue with them about """"purity testing"""" for years only for the guys they're defending to openly admit they love genocide and hate trans kids
Bluesky has as much bad news as X but over here, we're against it
When your president points at the opposition, calls them crazy, and his supporters stand up and cheer, you live in a fascist country.
If you think this is not laying the groundwork for future arrest and/or killing all political opponents, well, you’re not thinking.
It’ll be sad when the Winter Olympics ends and all the sports in it except ice hockey cease to exist for four years
What would normally be presidency-ending scandals not even a blip on the radar

In a world where silly little hobby kits for brick enthusiasts are getting crazy expensive, it's neat to see that Five Below has one or two ridiculously affordable kits based on everyone's favorite cyberpunk cat-centric puzzle platformer from several years ago
can you imagine if the establishment press treated this madness with the same scorn reserved for progressives advocating for affordable housing regulation?
All I see on my Twitter timeline are reporters parsing every quote from AOC in Germany, trying to mock them for incoherence or inaccuracy, while a demented old man who can’t string sentences together or stay awake sits in the Oval, while the legacy media happily sanewashes his quotes.
13 workers left Palantir and issued this statement.
"Palantir is increasingly complicit, normalizing authoritarianism under the guise of a 'revolution' led by oligarchs. We must resist this trend."
When Democrats figure out who the candidate will be that Democrat voters would vote for instead of the Democrat candidate Republicans would vote for, that’s their way out. Until then they’re gonna lose
A lot of far-right signifiers and dogwhistles intentionally include an element of plausible deniability. This keeps ordinary folks arguing about how seriously to take it if at all, whereas the people who are meant to get the message receive it loud and clear.
Quit falling for it.
Learning that Platner covered his Nazi tattoo with some “norse-celtic” bullshit is not convincing me that he was ever getting any tattoos “accidentally”
What can you do today? Not sure what to do? Start by not feeding the billionaires. #Boycott these companies who are giving millions to the regime. Thanks to @psychopete.bsky.social for this.
It *did* sound salutary, I did think that
Gift article: "We won’t get anything resembling democracy until we clear that widespread debris, and that means sending a bunch of these liars to prison, because they are the real criminals. America desperately needs truth and consequences."
Why is Trump going crazy on truth social over a publicly owned bridge between Canada and Michigan?
You just gotta follow the paper trail and closed door meetings. Which we did.
The Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in Minnesota is coming to an end, border czar Tom Homan announced Thursday.
“I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude,” Homan said at a news conference in Minneapolis.
🧵
AG Keith Ellison: "The surge is contributing to violent crime. Two of the three homicides committed in Minneapolis in 2026 have come at the hands of federal immigration agents."
The doomers would disagree but I think there is (and will be) a real appetite to hold Elon Musk accountable for his many crimes against the country.

Bring it on.
The deal was simple:
Democracy for deregulation. The Republic for ROI.
American tech oligarchs took it without hesitation.
They are opportunists of the lowest order, willing to burn down the institutions that built them just to secure a slightly better quarterly report
