Trump has been illegally bombing boats off the coast of Venezuela.

Tim Kaine and Adam Schiff forced a vote on reasserting Congress's role over war powers and ending this reckless
warmongering.

It failed 48-51.

Murkowski and Paul voted yes.

Fetterman voted no.

one thing I learned during 2020 is that "less than lethal" munitions are explicitly designed to be shot into the ground so they lose velocity and bounce up into people and the reason I didn't know that before is literally NO ONE has ever deployed them that way.

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

"the girlfriend of one of the founders of antifa"

After six years in burlesque, five years in the kink scene making rope... it took me a moment to remember that this was The Needling and not the Times.

For those of you not in Seattle, Choe is one of the dumbest, most bargain-basement fake reporters on the scene. A wet, sad idiot with truly nasty feet

Emergency Triad: The Chicago Rubicon and What Comes Next We aren’t at the worst-case scenario yet. But if you squint, you can see it looming out there, just over the horizon.

Great but chilling column.

“We should be exceedingly clear:
There is no crisis in Chicago that requires the Nat’l Guard. To the extent that there is civil instability in Chicago it has been caused by Trump’s surge of federal agents into the city & their lawless assault on the citizens of Chicago”

Uh huh.

Are you a non-Black person pissed at Bluesky leadership and feeling a little jealous of all the good vibes coming from Blacksky?

There are Blacksky adjacent options for you! Here’s info from the Blacksky migration guide!

India has a festival where a Hindu goddess slays a demon. This year the demon is Trump | CNN Sitting atop her lion, the Hindu goddess Durga wields a celestial weapon in each of her 10 hands. But her target isn’t the usual demon of deceit, Mahishasura.

OK, she really said that they arrested “the girlfriend of the founder of ANTIFA”

The girlfriend

of the FOUNDER

of - anti fascism?

Senate Republicans blocked Democrats' bill that would have reopened the government and saved health care for millions of Americans.

This is the SIXTH time they've done this.

Republicans are responsible for this shutdown.

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

A screenshot of C-Span showing Jack Posobiec speaking during a panel on "Antifa."

Jack Posobiec explicitly says that "Antifa" dates back to the Weimar Republic, explicitly acknowledging that this administration is opposed to those who resisted the arrival of Adolf Hitler in Power.

The Viral MAGA Accounts Run by a Man Who Has Never Been to America Two influential MAGA social media accounts are run by Rumen Naumovski, a Macedonian who may have illegally donated to a U.S. election.

MAGA lawmakers regularly share its content. Elon called it "one of the best accounts on X." It's run by a Macedonian who has never set foot in America — and who illegally donated to a U.S. congressional campaign.

Great stuff from @jsweetli.bsky.social:

I have taken
the freedom of speech
that was in
the Constitution

and which
you were probably
using
for peaceful protest

Forgive me
the courts said they were
so agitating
and so irritating

4. Given their experience, amici believe they have unique knowledge and perspective that will aid the Court in considering plaintiffs’ motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction against the federal defendants that seeks to enjoin federal defendants’ federalization and deployment of members of the National Guard of the United States, including the Illinois and Texas National Guards. 5. Amici offer this brief in support of neither party, but to explain based on amici’s experience as military leaders the risks – both to the military and to the public – of violations of the Posse Comitatus Act and framework of laws addressing military entanglement with law enforcement, the federalization of the National Guard, and the politicization of the military. 6. To fully address the complex issues and risks involved, particularly as the Court considers “what the scope of the troops' activities will be once here,” amici respectfully request leave to file an oversized brief not longer than 25 pages. 7. Because of the urgent nature of this action and the expedited schedule, there was no opportunity to seek and await a ruling from the court on the page limitation extension before filing the brief, which is being filed contemporaneously with this motion. WHEREFORE, amici respectfully request that this Court enter an order granting Plaintiffs leave to file instanter a Brief of Amici Curiae that is up to 25 pages long.

Former military generals and secretaries ask to file an amicus brief in IL v Trump in support of neither side, but to explain the ramifications of violations of the Posse Comitatus Act.

WTF.

Sequim or Puyallup.

Sometimes Oregon.

The literal reading of this statement is Pam Bondi is planning extrajudicial executions of random protesters.

Pretty sure Eleanor Roosevelt is dead

Ubisoft: "Okay, so in this game you fight the Klan"
Marketers: "You can't sell that in America"
Ubisoft: "Why?"
Marketers: "Umm [gestures broadly]. The Klan fucking won?"
Ubisoft: "Merde."
Marketers: "Yeah, we've asked for the Statue back but they're being dicks about that too."

When tax breaks for billionaires were set to expire in December, Republicans made that priority number 1—because heaven forbid billionaires have to worry about filling up their private jets!

But tax credits for families to afford health care? Republicans refuse to talk about it.

Even the COPS in these cities say that they don't need this. You know it's bad when the COPS are telling you that more cops aren't needed.
