Ordering up/selling us a war of choice like it’s Trump sneakers, Trump Vodka, Trump Steaks.

Human Costs of War research examines the human toll of U.S. military operations and spending, for U.S. service members, veterans, military contractors, and allies; and for civilians killed and displaced.

Just a reminder why we protested US actions like this last time.

"An estimated over 940,000 people were killed by direct post-9/11 war violence in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Pakistan between 2001-2023. Of these, more than 432,000 were civilians."

The president of the United States killed children to distract from raping children.

Don’t tell me Trump will never go through with this.

He’s a crook with 88 criminal charges against him.

He filed 62 lawsuits to overturn the free & fair 2020 election.

And incited a violent insurrection when that didn’t work.

There’s NOTHING he won’t do to keep power.

You sound like an unhinged person if you in plain words describe what’s happening, but the Trump admin demanded Anthropic’s AI be able to kill things for it w/out human approval and also do mass surveillance.

Anthropic said no, and now the admin is trying to destroy the company in retaliation.

Whenever an institution announces that it has "banned DEI" at Trump's request, it is now an explicitly white supremacist institution.

Just remember that and plan accordingly.

The draft executive order floating around wants to force people to re-register to vote between now and the midterms.

Clearly beyond Trump’s authority, and completely pointless unless your goal is to limit turnout

Turns out, if you give the Republicans an inch, they'll take all your civil rights.

Stop hoping one last concession or compromise will finally stop them.

Trump's war on national park signs is even dumber than you think Inside the administration's covert campaign against "negative" placards.

You've likely heard about NPS removing signs about slavery and climate change, but it's also censuring hundreds more placards around the country, often due to seemingly noncontroversial language, to comply with Trump's wish to have only "uplifting" signage.

Now that Zohran Mamdani is wildly popular, it's time for the left to denounce him as a neoliberal sell-out.

Congressional republicans are running cover for their boss. DOJ is actively redacting Trump’s name & presence from the files. This isn’t about truth or accountability. This is a cover up.

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

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

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

Deeply conflicted, Kushner represents the U.S. in high-stakes negotiations with Iran Today in Geneva, Switzerland, Jared Kushner will represent the United States in meetings with Iranian officials — a last

As Trump ramps up his warmongering with Iran, his own son-in-law Jared Kushner — who is leading negotiations with Iran — stands to profit from lucrative contracts with its regional rivals.

The Trump family's insatiable greed endangers us all.

Everything. They. Do. Is. Something. From. The. Past.

Yesterday I was trying to formulate a joke around the whole Einstein AI app thing about a $60K university degree for people who don’t want to go to class so it’s just a sweater and piece of paper that says like I almost tried. And then they just went and made it real.

Abuser Logic.
These creeps make horrible public servants. 😔🤦🏼‍♂️😡

Blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol dies in Buffalo. A nearly blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol miles from his home dies in Buffalo after having been missing for nearly a week.

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way.

"Aren't you tired of being smart? Wouldn't it be nice if a machine could be smart for you while you get to enjoy the freedom of being a complete fucking idiot who just sits around drooling and being stupid all day?"

The GOP is doing every thing possible to strip voters of their rights so they can win the election.

Take care. Vote early.

Trump’s ICE Is Quietly Stockpiling Weaponry—and It Should Alarm Us All In addition to staffing up at a furious rate, ICE and CPB are acquiring a vast cache of weapons from private contractors, new data reveals. This will not end well—or anytime soon.
