During the early days of the COVID pandemic, each was criticized for their views on the pandemic, for underestimating its impact, for views on vaccine side-effects. The criticisms were scientific--these men and women got things wrong again and again. 2/

i cant believe we gave all our money to tech guys because they invented Hot or Not 2 or a website where you can buy things

Corporate Media Is Not Failing—It is Collaborating As the fourth estate falls, here's what we must do to stay informed and empowered

The Big Ugly Bill passing today is devastating. But we didn’t get here on accident. One big part of the problem is staring us in the face: corporate media. The press was meant to be a watchdog—the Fourth Estate. Instead, it’s become a concierge service for fascism

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

right-wingers will often say that America deserves credit for ending slavery rather than blame for having slavery. but then we made a holiday to commemorate the end of slavery and they still got mad, which should tell you what their real objection is.

The Environmental Impact of the US Military | Earth.Org US military pollution is a significant contributor to climate change. If it were a nation, it would be the 47th largest emitter in the world.

Your individual choices literally can’t compete and trying to convince you that ecological damage is a personal choice problem has been a super neat capitalist trick

Rand Paul: "Tariffs are taxes & when you put tax on a business it's always passed through as a cost, so there will be higher prices. There's an economic fallacy that trade deficits mean anything. They're artificial accounting. The only trade that means anything is the individual who buys something"

The big reveal is that this - what you’re seeing right now - is in fact *exactly* how businesses are run; chaotically and at the whims of sociopaths who think they know everything, actually know nothing, and run away with a golden parachute to leave others to clean up their mess.

Should remain the top story.

THE PENTAGON BUDGET JUST HIT A TRILLION DOLLARS.

Not a single pundit from either political party said “how are we going to pay for it?!”

Don’t dare tell us we cannot ALL have healthcare, housing, and education.

As DOGE sucks up government data that Americans thought was confidential, RFK Jr. says people's privacy will be "protected" in his autism registry.
I remember when Republicans pretended to be against big government. In fact, they just wanted it to be *their* big government.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

This is what inspiration looks like.

At Republican Rep. Mike Lawler’s town hall, @emilyjaynef.bsky.social was forcibly removed by law enforcement.

The specific reason for her removal remains unclear. As she was carried out, the crowd chanted “Let her stay” in protest ✊🏼🔥

Probably worth saving this number

A Bomb Threat Targeted Student Protesters. So Why Did They Get Blamed for It? A bomb threat at Barnard College targeted the “terrorists/communists that are protesting.” But you wouldn’t know that from the school’s statements.

SCOOP: Barnard students are being interrogated about a bomb threat last month on the day students held a pro-Palestine sit-in at the library. But the school never revealed to the public -- or the students -- that the threat was against student protesters. theintercept.com/2025/04/24/b...

Revolting. We're enthusiastically sprinting back to the Jim Crow days when cops routinely illegally intimidated lawyers.

A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

This story is so serious and has so many devastating implications. As I’ve said, endlessly at this point, #DOGE, Musk, Thiel, MAGA, #NetworkState etc, are part of a larger global fascist project to end democracy & America.
@maddow.msnbc.com covered this story last night, which I’ll attach clips of.

•••••BREAKING•••••
Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen just completed a presser in El Salvador.

•Sen. Van Hollen made it abundantly clear that the Trump administration has repeatedly lied about Kilmar Abrego García. Indisputable truths: Abrego García was in the U.S. legally, he has absolutely no gang…

Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been sitting in a Salvadoran prison for over a month because the Trump Admin made a mistake.

Now, the Admin is defying SCOTUS & refusing to bring him back.

If we allow Trump to violate Kilmar's rights, none of our rights are safe.

Kilmar is all of us.
