YouTube video by LastWeekTonight Bari Weiss: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

one of my takeaways from this great piece is that weiss just doesn’t…sound like an intelligent person? or at least, not someone who has thought even a little bit about how and why they think the things that they do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gieT...

This goes back to something I’ve tried to argue for so long — people want forgiveness when they should be working towards atonement. The first is a burden on the person you’ve hurt to absolve you. The second is a lifelong process on your part to be better. It doesn’t require forgiveness.

Trump has no legal authority, "standing" or otherwise, to order the killing of people in international waters for unsubstantiated accusations of non-capital crimes.

Calling them "narcoterrorists" does not make it right or legal to order their deaths without any due process.

super smart to share your sexual fantasies with technofascists in a country too corrupt to pass a baseline internet privacy law

YouTube video by Mother Jones This Secret Tech Tracked World Leaders, a Vatican Enemy, and Maybe You

The undercover footage in this video... just wow. Our new massive international investigation into a surveillance company selling untraceable tech that can find you anywhere.

Every view and comment on this helps get in front of more eyes—and that means we can keep doing this work! Thank you!!

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Billionaires Are Hoarding Power, Not Money Billionaire money has become a source of wildly distorted political power that allows a few men with extremist views to wreak havoc on the rest of us.

“The problem with billionaires isn’t that they’re hoarding money that would otherwise pay for a Scandinavian social utopia. It’s that their money has become a source of wildly distorted political power that allows a few men with extremist views to wreak havoc on the rest of us.”

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

It was a Democratic state AG candidate, Jay Jones, who made the joke. He was talking about a Republican.

Lair of the White Worm. Tbh I had never heard of the genre and had to look it up. Immediately thought of this. Made such an impression on 13yo me.

Absolute legend

A screenshot of a DHS tweet. That says they’re not sending their best. The saying is repeated over a person in all black wearing gas mask and goggles, linking in arms with people next to them. A mass of people are behind them.

This person is straight up staring down dudes in fatigues and military gear. In the end, they’ll be on the right side of history and the nazi who runs the DHS social media account will remain an unfuckable basement dweller.

@lataco.bsky.social first began as a blog documenting local Mexican cuisine. Now, it’s an essential reporting powerhouse to the city as Trump’s mass deportation plot unfolds.

Imagine how much worse it would be if they were wearing masks?!?

We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

Trump and the GOP are gearing up for Martial Law.

Suspending our rights, punting the elections, crushing critics, and elevating Trump into Supreme Leader.

Every week, they're searching for their Reichstag Fire or trying to create one.

Sunday morning reading: I’ve been having trouble articulating why Ezra Klein has been so disappointing lately and this piece sums it up nicely

I am just so fucking proud of her.

Next time just go with, “Yes”, Jeremiah! 😉

Same. Never really understood all the complaining, even about the other place to some degree. Avoid the “for you”, curate your follows and make use of the list feature. There will always be some random retweets/commentors, but that’s what the block/ignore is for.

The leap of logic required to believe that addressing inequality based upon race is in itself racist is so obscenely absurd. How can these people take themselves seriously?

So exhausting..

What the Trump regime doesn’t want you to know about Dallas ICE shooting The Trump regime's refusal to say the names of the Dallas ICE victims exposes the inhumanity of American fascism.

Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence NATIONAL SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM/NSPM-7 MEMORANDUM FOR THE SECRETARY OF STATE                THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

Read this. Seriously, read it.

The Trump regime is declaring open season on its critics - NGOs, philanthropists, activists. They will be harassed, arrested, jailed. The silencing effect on others who might speak out will be huge.

This is authoritarianism.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Absolutely spot on.

this really does succinctly explain every single pathetic, boot-suckling behavior we’ve been seeing from the pampered pundit class

Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum.

This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.
