confiscating letters from children in a concentration camp is some of the most evil shit i can imagine

The whole country ripped on RFK Jr. wearing jeans while working out months ago. And somehow that never got back to him. He’s so hermetically isolated he’s not listening to anyone on anything. What I’m saying is that a lot of people are going to die.

kid rock on an exercise bike flipping off camera and looking like egg salad that’s been left in the sun too long

If I send you this, it means I smoked meth and stole your catalytic converter and I’m escaping on an exercise bike

We're going to find out Kid Rock got like a half million dollars to flip off America in that video, right?

Noem’s team clashed with Coast Guard staff last year after the Coast Guard plane she’d been flying on broke down and she had to fly back to Washington, D.C., on a backup jet, according to the two U.S. officials, the Coast Guard official , and the former Coast Guard official. While flying on the backup plane, Noem realized she had left some personal items, including her blanket, on the plane that had broken down, the two U.S. officials, the Coast Guard official and the former Coast Guard official said. When Lewandowski was informed that some of her personal items had been left behind, he yelled at the Coast Guard flight staff and threatened to fire them, according to the two U.S. officials, the Coast Guard official and the former Coast Guard official. The Coast Guard pilot came out of the cockpit to see what was happening, and Lewandowski insisted the plane return to where the broken-down jet was located to collect the secretary’s items, the U.S. official, the current Coast Guard official and the former Coast Guard official said. When the pilot refused, Lewandowski announced the pilot was relieved of his duty, according to the U.S. official, the current Coast Guard official and the former Coast official. The pilot explained that if he was fired, he would need to land the plane immediately while another pilot was found to continue the mission to Washington, the U.S. official, the current Coast Guard official and the former Coast Guard official said. Lewandowski ultimately relented and calmer heads prevailed by the end of the trip, the two U.S. officials, the current U.S. official and the former Coast Guard official said.

what I love most here is the HEAVILY repeated use of the credit to "two U.S. officials, the Coast Guard official, and the former Coast Guard official"

"Noem had to switch planes... but her blanket wasn’t moved to the second plane- The Coast Guard pilot was initially fired and told to take a commercial flight home... They eventually reinstated the pilot because no one else was available to fly them home."

Oh my god. These people are insane. It is a primary federal regulation that you are "not allowed to interfere with a flight crew member who is performing their duties." The FAA needs to get involved and press charges like they would anyone else.

I’m sorry, but if we hold everyone in the Epstein files accountable for their involvement and punish each one for their crimes to the fullest extent, we will begin to collapse a long-standing system that has only given power to elitist excrement and I don’t see a motherfucking problem with this

Well, well, well...

for real though why did they use the Cum Font

I love drinking [w]hole milk.

Goddammit, chat! You were too slow!

A huge Norm Nation update! Yesterday, so many reached out to help a family in hiding escape eviction. Today, I paid $3,700 for 3 months’ rent (2 months of back rent since they can’t leave the house and also March’s rent, because it’s already mid-February). Thank you so much! You are saving lives.

IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS. WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK. AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE. SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS. THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES. IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

the Black Panthers were right

The plane we're on to Houston tonight is coming in from Mexico. That means it will be fully catered and cleaned from top to bottom. That's required with any flight that comes in from out of the country. No sloppy aft galley left for me to piece together.

If you've seen the usual recommended Frederick Wiseman films and want something else to watch in his memory, check out 'The Store.' Like the rest, it's free on Kanopy. Here's why it's an essential not just of Wiseman's works but all nonfiction cinema: buff.ly/3DNlpZI

not that I expect James Dolan to grow a soul at this late date, but one great way to commemorate the death of Frederick Wiseman would be to withdraw the legal threats and finally let them release the movie about Madison Square Garden Wiseman shot in 1998

In memory and honor of Frederick Wiseman, who took hold of a still-young format and, guided from the start by an unyielding sense of principle, made a body of work so original, idea-rich, and unified that it seems foreordained—a historic fusion of investigation and the inner life.

On January 10, 2026, while driving back to work after getting lunch with his father and cousin, a car quickly passed O., sped up, then stopped in front of him. (Id. ¶ 3.) A few men in civilian clothes stepped out of the car and asked for his identification. (Id.) The men threatened O.—if he did not get out of the car, they would force him out. (Id.) O. exited the car and was told he was under arrest. (Id.) The men handcuffed him and did not allow him to bring his phone. (Id.) O. felt like he was being kidnapped. (Id.) The men detained O., his father, and his cousin, taking them all to Whipple. (Id. ¶ 4.) At Whipple, there was “food scattered on the floor, the floor was sticky with mud, and everything stuck to your shoes.” (Id. ¶ 5.) The space was so cramped that sometimes there was no space to sit on the floor. (Id.)

The horror stories rolling in from Minnesota are just the tip of the iceberg. This 20-year-old, who's lawfully present in the country, was arrested for being Latino, then jailed in a filthy cell where he couldn't even sit down. 18 days of illegal detention. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

And start investigations and indictments on those already released. C’mon!!

RIP to whoever has to clean that pool

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

#WGA #scriptsky #screenwriting: WGA staff (WGSU) ON STRIKE. WGA closed. No one on campus. No residuals coming, meetings canceled/to be rescheduled. Possibly no info coming pre-Guild/AMPTP negotiations. Interesting!

During the '07 WGA strike, I walked with Rev. Jackson for a few minutes, and it was a highlight of a pretty difficult time. RIP

The image shows Rev. Jesse Jackson speaking to striking WGA members. Behind him, a sign that reads "Writers Guild of America ON STRIKE."

RIP, Rev. Jackson. Thank you, from one WGA member. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSAL...

I fully support the WGA staff strike even though I suspect they’ve been slow walking my residuals.
