What a great photo of Brazilian alpine skier Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, the first South American to ever win a medal at the Winter Olympic Games.

I am, by all accounts, a coward, an overthinker, and a waffler, and I don’t think I’ve ever had greater moral clarity about anything ever in my life. ICE is so absolutely morally repugnant that there is no way to live wirh yourself if you do nothing.

Consistent with Project 2025, the Trump administration has managed to capture, commandeer, or corrupt every important social institution -- every important social institution except juries, that is. Project 2025 didn't have a plan for juries.

Ok Boomer!

“If all the names in the Epstein files are released then our entire system will collapse.”

Works for me.

don't carry maga's water for them. don't try to work out how there's some secret loophole in the constitution that magically ends democracy. there isn't. that's the whole fucking point you fucking dopes

If there's ever been a time to NOT be incrementalist, this is it. The most political capital you're gonna have is right now. And we got Gestapo death squads in MSP and TB spreading through concentration camps in Texas. If you can't find a win there, get out of politics. The Epstein Class, baby

Bill Gates Says He's Fighting Climate Change While Cashing in on Oil The billionaire's investment portfolio includes millions of shares of companies contributing to the climate crisis.

His enemies spend a lot of time attacking that Mamdani’s a “social democrat.”

What makes him special, I think, is that he’s an authentically moral person with empathy.

That’s sadly rare in politics these days.

You and me both….

At least the Nazis went to the trouble of passing the Nuremberg Laws and making the brutality and totalitarianism street legal. The gutlessness of the American run at fascism is that they want to do it simply by pretending the Bill of Rights never existed or meant anything.

In no functioning country is this allowed.

Find the answer by using the @kenwhite.bsky.social principle. Works with most things but it was literally made for this moment.

Turning Point USA, the ultra-Conservative, super “Christian” organisation have Kid Rock as their spokesperson.
He has lovely lyrics such as:

“Young ladies, young ladies I like 'em underage see
Some say that's statutory
But I say it's MANDATORY!”

I see we are finally discovering just how the Patriot Act and the formation of DHS was/is a threat to civil liberties and democracy.

Bezos fucked the paper and instead of fixing it he’s destroying it despite the fact that he could spend the money to make things right without even noticing its absence.

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)

New Trump admin slogan just dropped

Hey, everyone, the president is very sensitive about his long relationship with his best friend Jeffrey Epstein, the notorious pedophile, so please don't post about it or send those stories to your friends and family

the Republican Party will get worse before it gets worse, but God willing it will also get a whole lot smaller

Such is the outrage in Denmark over both Trump’s desire for Greenland and disparaging remarks about NATO that one of the country’s leading newspapers devoted their Saturday front and plenty of room inside to the bios of all 44 Danes slain during NATO missions in support of the US
