The lack of humanity…

Watching the women's skiatholon olympics race. My lungs just cannot relate to their lungs. Amazing.

This is the closest we’d ever get to anything approximating contrition.

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

As always, Dr. King's message is right on time. Today calls on all of us to hear his wisdom and put it into action.

Interesting thread on AI-nanigans about Maduro/Venezuela

Using their logic, could a random foreign country charge rubio, hegseth, et al with murder and then just grab them at will to be tried in their courts?

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Princeton, New Jersey no kings demonstration. A crowd of people in front of a George Washington monument

If you build an ai agent to watch them and create new new ones, it’s a self perpetuating social network you never have to touch

Emergency Video: DC Trump is trying to make you think he’s bigger than he is. He’s still a small man

Emergency video: The DC actions today aren’t good, but Trump is trying to make you think he’s big and tough and he’s really a small weak tiny victim. Also Epstein.

Maybe they’ll determine they’ve gotten what they wanted out of trump and spring the 25th amendment on him.

Gaza is starving. Where are the American Jewish leaders? A fear of being labelled antisemitic still deters American Jews and Jewish institutions from taking a position that is morally correct.

The mass starvation & killing of Palestinians in Gaza at the hands of the Israeli gov’t is a chillul hashem, a desecration of God.

Jewish leaders who criticized Zohran Mamdani for three words he doesn’t use should raise their voices loudly here as well.

The White House has ordered the US Dept. of Justice to prioritize denaturalization: voiding the citizenship of US citizens.

Who will it denaturalize? "Any" case that it "determines to be sufficiently important".

Point 10 leaves the criteria opaque and arbitrary.

amtrak’s marketing team gets it

Holy crap. When people show you who they are…

A great way to troll this morally bankrupt twit would be having a photo/vid of Joe Biden enjoying some tasty tacos. Can anyone get on that?

Republicans ready to invoke the 25th amendment for Biden but make it Trump

Yep, I really can’t wrap my head around it. How could they have not learned the lesson?

You have to wonder how long people will walk the plank for him, thinking he’s a partner, only to realize he’s holding a saw and has one foot still on the boat

And kind of like vampires not being able to see themselves in the mirror

So in this timeline the wsj editorial board is a voice of sanity. Gotcha. Good to know

All of it :)

There was a Town hall scheduled for our local US rep, Tony Wied (Brown County, Green Bay, WI) - hundreds showed, cardboard cutout Tony was there while human Tony was at home. Here’s a video of a speech from one of his constituents and audience response. 💥 💪🏻
