They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

WOW — Republican Senator @berniemoreno cuts off @SenGaryPeters as he calls out Republicans for sneaking in a provision to “line their pockets” with taxpayer dollars, saying he’s not allowed to question their motives.🤔

So someone taught him the word seditious? Great, maybe he'll understand the charges brought against him later.

The Grand Old Pedophiles got kicked in the teeth twice today, so I expect them to be extra horrible for the next bit.

Turning Point USA continues to carry on the sainted work of Charlie Kirk by singling out innocent high school teachers for death threats.

In the past 24 hours Elon Musk has sent 9 tweets either endorsing Andrew Cuomo, attacking Zohran Mamdani, or going after the voting process as a whole — and he's retweeted many more along the same lines.

Billionaire wealth and power are a threat to the democratic process.

He also continues to lie outrageously and sign his tweeths like the doddering demented old fuck he is.

BREAKING: Trump has just posted on Truth Social indicating he doesn't intend to release SNAP funds until the government reopens, which would defy both a court order and his own administration's comments yesterday.

Yep. And defying a court order.

Here in California our votes don’t often count at a Federal level, but that’s not the case with Prop 50.

For once we have a chance to make a difference.

To let it be known we will not be messed with, not by Trump and not by Texas.

That’s why I’m voting yes on 50.

This really illustrates Trump’s lack of interest in both history and character, and his commitment to the enshittification of everything. This looks like what people imagine a “rich” hotel bathroom is, while simultaneously echoing one of those bath fitter things on TV they do in an afternoon.

Libraries Scramble for Books After Giant Distributor Shuts Down Why it might have been and may continue to be harder to get new releases from your local library.

Private equity destroys 200-year-old book distribution company that libraries around the country rely on and now libraries are having trouble getting new books:

right, so … this is why the layoffs that are being attributed to ai are happening. it’s technically true but it’s not about replacing people with ai it’s about spending out the ass on ai investments and having to cover those expenses to maintain a margin by lopping off salary expenses

FUCKING STOP. FUCKING. STOP. THIS.

Can't overstate how fucked up it is that unraveling what is arguably the greatest achievement in the history of humanity is now a motivating issue of one of the two dominant parties in the U.S.

They literally ruin everything they touch

Venezuela claims to have captured ‘CIA backed cell plotting false flag attack’ Venezuela believes Trump is trying to put pressure on President Maduro in order to displace him from power

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.

SCOOP: several days ago Zohran Mamdani was overheard saying he "needs" to eat dinner. An inside source confirmed he had eaten breakfast and lunch that day, giving him an estimated 2+ weeks without additional calories before he might have died from starvation

The government has been shut down for 27 days.

Families are already seeing their premiums skyrocket for next year.

This is a crisis and NEVER in my time in office have I seen a president who won't even TALK to the other side about a solution. This is absurd.

I really, truly hope that over the next week the Dems get their shit together, all get on the same page, and just keep repeating that American families are starving to protect the Epstein client list. Over, and over, and over again. Every interview, every broadcast. Starving people to protect pedos.

This is several days old. But amidst so much else id missed it. That’s a stunning number. No wonder they about-faced. Reminder of the power of consumers in oligarch era, not subject to the same kind of targeting.

I don't think we understand just how bad the decline of the Internet is to knowledge.

3 years ago, I could perform a very basic search in any engine and get an absurd number of relevant links, research articles, etc.

Today, I can perform the same search and find absolutely nothing.

this is exactly what's happening

its remarkable to see random suburbanites in their fucking PJs have more courage than the vast majority of america's political, social, and civil elites

the ballroom will never be built and he’ll just pocket whatever money he collects because he is a grifter first and foremost

this didn’t happen and if it did it is also impeachable
