While many Americans were still asleep, Republicans in the House of Representatives passed Trump’s huge, horrible mega-bill.

It might be the worst, most damaging piece of legislation I’ve seen in my nearly 60 years in politics.

The Cruelty Is The Point, But What’s The Goal? The Trump administration isn’t cruel just for cruelty’s sake. There’s a deeper, darker purpose.

Such a timely read. Trump’s migrant policies aren’t just cruel. They’re purposeful.

Super interested in what happens to laws that regulate broadly and have an AI-regulating component (e.g., any privacy law). I presume that companies are going to argue that they should not be applicable to any system that uses automated decision making in some way...which would be wildly disruptive.

Keep asking these questions, Peter Alexander. Bravo.

Trump is escalating his attack on Harvard by trying to block its ability to enroll foreign students.

It seems that to Trump, the only useful non-Americans are those who invest in his crypto schemes and global resorts or gift him jumbo “palace in the sky” aircraft.

Hello?

Without our federal judges, the dismantling of our country would face no significant hurdle.

A video circulating on Reddit shows ICE officers wrestling a Hispanic construction worker to the ground while he repeatedly says that he is a US citizen.

He was reportedly detained for hours until he was eventually released.

They’ll believe any number they get fed.

This is a view from the surface of Comet 67P.

Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop.

“If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???”

Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is unnecessary or a luxury, survive a month without it.

Remember the 2nd case like Abrego Garcia, involving the gay man deported to Mexico n/w/s having been terrorized and held for ransom there? Judge Murphy orders the US to bring him back. not facilitate, not effectuate, bring him back.

some random jackass has been spamming around 15 assorted game journos with homophobic emails today wherein the sender accuses just one of the recipients of being gay, and I'm just over here cackling because buddy, like 75% of us are gay

I believe in science

cranking the greed dial way past eleven, Donny held a Who Can Give Me The Most Money Contest to reward ‘investors’ who bought the most memecoins. last night, the top 220 shovelers-of-cash-into-Donny’s-pocket got to have dinner at his Virginia golf motel — and today, the top 25 shovelers will get a personal tour of the White House. here’s what we know about what went on last night: fuck-all. you want to know who attended Donny’s corruptionpalooza? fuck you, that’s their names. you want to know what countries they came from? fuck you, that’s where they live. you want to know how much Donny personally profited off of each attendee? fuck you, that’s how much.

from today's post, about the fuckery that went down at the secret crypto greedfest dinner that was held last night at Donny Convict's Virginia golf motel

BREAKING: Another huge loss for trump, as a federal judge just blocked trump's attempt to ban international students from enrolling at Harvard!

JUDGES ARE HOLDING THE LINE.💪

Rupert Murdoch and Ronald Reagan will share their place in FASCISM.......REMEMBER.......

This is spot on!!

She was 9 weeks pregnant. She died. The state of Georgia is making the doctors keep her alive to incubate the baby. She’s been dead for three months. This is REAL. this isn’t about what should or should not be done. This is about having a VOICE. This is about having a CHOICE.

The Social Security Administration (per DOGE) instituted anti-fraud checks for benefit claims made over the phone.

Only two out of over 110,000 claims had a high probability of fraud — a rate of .0018%

But it slowed retirement claim processing by 25%.

"Efficiency."

This is a full out attack upon the working poor. Shameful. Wrong. Bad for our country.

Trump's DOJ is reportedly considering dropping a criminal case against Boeing over two deadly 737 MAX crashes

Reminder that the Trump admin has halted or withdrawn enforcement actions against 130+ corporate offenders since inauguration day.

Is this being "tough on crime"?

Cal-Maine, the biggest egg producer, has been accused of using bird flu as cover to jack up prices and triple its profits from a year ago.

It also received $22M in federal aid.

While you're getting gouged at the grocery store, your tax dollars are subsidizing corporate greed.

If You Were Wondering How Out Of Touch They Really Are….
