Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Trump says he is both the President and the Speaker of the House.

Congressional Republicans are nothing more than a rubber stamp for his extreme agenda.

You deserve better.

Trump’s Campaign to Defund the Arts—and Rewrite History "The campaign to defund the arts, capture our museums, and rewrite our history is a prelude to silencing dissent."

“Authoritarians always target art first. They do so, because art and history are enemies of the myths a regime needs to survive." From my new TIME piece on Donald Trump’s campaign to defund the arts and rewrite our history. The stakes could not be higher.

My kid’s school does the DC trip every year. It is their turn to go. I went with my other kid before. No issues.

I had two parents ask me lots of questions if the trip was safe. Never had that before. The GOP media does a hell of a job instilling fear in people.

Whoaaaaa

Trump’s fantasy of having one of his apparently uncontrollable liquid shits land on the American flag

I guess if I *had* to pick my favorite part of the video the president posted where he’s a big boy pilot and he pew pew pews his poop all over everyone, it would be the part where he shits on the American flag?

Things to do in the future:

1. Putting them all on trial for crimes against humanity at the Hague

2. Totally reforming entire government to root out corruption and abuse of power so this bullshit never happens again

3. At some point you’d imagine, brunch

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

The legendary Diane Keaton has died.

She was 79.

First reported by People.

Release the Epstein Files.

This meme lives in my head every day.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Trump has not been seen in public since Tuesday and has no public events on his calendar today

Actually called my big boss crying after work today because it’s been such a clusterfuck. Things will get resolved but it’s literally the old saying of it only takes one bad apple. I wish I was more mean as a person because I deserve to lose my shit on at least one person a month.

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

Kristi Noem Fast-Tracked Millions in Disaster Aid to Florida Tourist Attraction After Campaign Donor Intervened The DHS chief has been widely criticized for slowing down FEMA’s response after natural disasters.

Real post on another network:

Turns out not being mad that a far-right hate influencer got shot is NOT a fireable offense if you are a teacher or professor.

YouTube video by Jimmy Kimmel Live Jimmy Kimmel is Back!

Jimmy Kimmel's Monologue now has 14.3 MILLION VIEWS on YouTube.

It would be a shame for you to share it

Jimmy Kimmel Returns: ABC Ends Suspension Starting Tuesday Jimmy Kimmel will return to late night on Tuesday

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that."

Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

I made the mistake of watching Episode 11 of The Pitt after dinner and now it is almost midnight and I finished the season.

I am traumatized from those last episodes, but that was damn good television.

Also, gun reform now.

It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents.

But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

Pam Bondi deleted a government study showing that right-wingers commit more terrorism. The right cannot think coherently so instead of making their own studies, they censor legitimate ones.

But don't worry Pam, I saved it for you web.archive.org/web/20250911...

Defense Bill Opens Door To Guns-For-Hire At The Border The must-pass legislation that just passed the House would, for the first time, allow the Pentagon to send private military contractors to the border.

🚨BIG NEWS: Republicans just quietly added a line to a defense bill that would empower the Pentagon and Pete Hegseth to deploy armed private mercenaries inside the U.S. at the southern border for the first time in American history.
