USA will continue to become more and more isolated in tRump’s America.

If it looks like a dictator, and walks like a dictator, and squawks like a dictator…

Of course, we knew Trump was paid off to criticize the competing bridge. Was just a matter of confirming the payment.

So you get out your Fascism for Dummies book for the 15 things you do, and we tried to include as many of them as we could in the most artful way possible. How were we supposed to know that this clown car in Washington was going to basically use the same book that we used? So I don't think it's prescience so much as the sad familiarity of fascism and the karaoke menu of things that you go through to do it. You could list them from the show, or you could list them from the newspaper.

Tony Gilroy, creator of Andor, wasn’t allowed to use the word “fascism” during press junkets in 2025.

Interesting interview in The Hollywood Reporter.

It’s outrageous that ICE and CBP have allowed people to die in their custody and are claiming they “don’t have any money for food” at detention facilities.

Meanwhile, Republicans gave these private for-profit facilities BILLIONS in their Big Bad Betrayal Bill.

I am just focused on getting past BYU. We run the table on our remaining conference games, then yeah, we are a 1 seed. Lose At Arizona but get the rest and go deep in Big 12 tourney? Yeah maybe a 1 seed. Drop two or more of our remaining games? Lucky to stay a two seed.

Celebrating Black military service is not “DEI woke shit.” It’s essential to America’s defense. The Trump administration has sullied the legacy of soldiers our nation relies on.

In the Army, nearly a quarter of all active-duty enlisted personnel are Black, and Black women make up 36 percent of all enlisted women.

Against this backdrop, it is important to recognize individual stories of Black valor and sacrifice.

I voted for a third party candidate when he ran for re-election because even back then I thought he was kinda sleazy and more Republican lite than I could vote for.

Paediatricians’ blood used to make new treatments for RSV and colds Antibodies harvested from the blood of paediatricians are up to 25 times better at protecting against the common respiratory infection RSV than existing antibody therapies, and are now being developed...

This is simultaneously hilarious and so cool at the same time. Of course the doctor that has to put up with your snotty nosed kid would develop more antibodies.

‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, i...

The view from across the pond. Can you blame her for feeling this way?

Last night, I was notified that another person has died in ICE custody.

That’s 39 people who have died on ICE’s watch during Trump’s second term.

We cannot grow numb to this. There must be immediate oversight and accountability.

Trump/Republican policies are causing the USA to fall further and further behind in the race to the new energy future.

Yet somehow Republicans have managed to fool the public into thinking they're better about spending, deficits and debts.

I wonder who this could be aimed at.

Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.

Imagine that.

The “SAVE” America is here to save Trump, not America.

What’s one way we can rein in ICE?

We can start by boycotting ICE’s corporate collaborators that are profiting from the agency’s cruelty.

Watch.

JFC, how does one person get their priorities so far out of whack?
