Back up and active here, people are waking up to Meta and looking here and to other apps, who knows? Hopefully people start ditching Meta as they have Tik-tok and they take their power back.

Dogs, man. We deserve them.

Seems like it should be a bigger deal that Trump planned to send migrants to Libya, where the UN found migrants were literally enslaved — and worse. “Hell on earth for migrants” apnews.com/article/liby...

Stephen Miller, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem and a whole lot of ICE/DHS types is will discover a Strange New Respect for habeas corpus and the rule of law when the 2029 Truth and Reconciliation Commission arrests them for human trafficking, conspiracy, kidnapping, and child abuse.

Anyway here is butters (RIP) eating a french fry (had to break its neck first)

The people who are angry about the new Pope are the strongest endorsements of the new Pope.

BREAKING: A federal court ruled that our client Rümeysa Öztürk must be released on bail immediately. She will return home to New England as her case proceeds.

Trump is making his first term grifting seem quaint "Whether it’s the memecoin or stablecoin, there are a bunch of levers people can pull to directly enrich the president."

During his first term, Trump owned and profited from Trump-branded hotels, including one located just blocks from the WH, where companies and foreign governments lined his pockets.

It was an unprecedented level of presidential corruption. And it seems quaint compared to what’s happening right now.

'No, the Right Doesn't Hate the New Pope. They Hate His Jesus.'

You mean to tell me that Chicago gets to claim Michael Jordan, the first Black President AND the first American Pope? Good lord you ain't going to be able to tell them NOTHING.

Liev Schreiber Says Trans Daughter Kai Is a 'Fighter' Who Is 'as Feisty and Outspoken as They Come' Liev Schreiber is opening up about parenting his transgender daughter, Kai. The family will soon appear at a benefit gala to support homeless LGBTQ+ youth.

Thank you, Liev Schreiber, for embracing your trans daughter Kai.

He's losing court cases. He's losing his trade war. His cabinet is a disaster. Voters are turning out against his people and ideals. He's unpopular. He looks weaker everyday.
The only thing he has is executive orders and firing his own people.
It's early, keep fighting, we're going to win this. 💙

We Have More Power Than Trump Wants Us To Believe — Here's What You Can Do From Marc | Here is a list of what each of us can do to stand up for democracy and defend our elections.

There are things every one of us can do in our daily lives to help ensure free and fair elections — and, in doing so, limit Trump’s power. Some actions are small — so small that you might dismiss them as unimportant. Don’t. Every important journey begins with a single step.

65 years ago today, the birth control pill was introduced in the U.S. Years later, Loretta Lynn sang about it—and radio stations banned it. Preachers condemned it. Country music had never seen anything like it.

ICE agents in Worcester, Massachusetts arrested a mother outside of her home with her newborn baby and 16 year old daughter.

The 16 year old stood in front of the ICE vehicle holding the baby.

She handed the baby to a neighbor & fled.

Police caught up to her, in a heartbreaking scene.⬇️

[professor Farnsworth from Futurama voice] Good news, everyone!

So Trump went from - 'I'll give America the greatest economy ever' to 'Americans will have to make sacrifices, cut back, do more with less.'

But notice who Trump said will have to make those sacrifices:

In Trump's mind, who plays with dolls?
Why little girls, of course.

Trump is treating the country the way a slumlord treats his properties/renters.

Radon testing? LOL, why do that? I mean, what if you find something?

Black mold behind the drywall? If you can’t see it, then why spend good money getting rid of it. I heard cod liver oil protects against that anyway.
