draw… backwards

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I lost my job, my kids have measles, and masked secret police roam our streets murdering civilians and abducting the witnesses. But at least now we have full sovereignty over a couple of military bases in Greenland.

This admin wants us to believe they aren't destroying evidence.
Do. Not. Believe. Them.
The last decade has provided ample evidence of why we should never again believe anyone from this administration...about anything.

Senate Dems needn’t come to agreement on everything right now. That’s a path to the lowest common denominator. They simply have to agree to filibuster DHS approps. As to which of a host of anti-brutality and anti-authoritarian proposals to advance, let a thousand flowers bloom.

YouTube video by Democracy Docket Fight for House Majority Begins | Suzan DelBene

NEW VIDEO: Free and fair elections are under attack, and Congresswoman Suzan DelBene is on the front lines of the fight. As chair of the DCCC, she joins me to discuss gerrymandering, mail-in voting, and what Democrats must do to win back the House and defend democracy.

I brought my family to see Congress certify the vote for the 2020 presidential election.

The first thing I saw was a bunch of MAGA thugs assaulting the Capitol, one of whom was wearing a stupid buffalo hat.

So forgive me if I doubt that the guy who pardoned them is going to bring crime down.

I’m convinced Cole Palmer is a footballer only because he can’t read #liverpool #chelsea #premierleague

Tariffs are a tax on working families and the first shot in a trade war with our partners and allies. It’s irresponsible.

I feel like this tweet did not get enough attention this week

When I got a PhD in nineteenth-century political history, I really, truly never imagined I would have to find a way to explain to readers what an eggplant emoji means. (Wired reported more Signalgate Venmo accounts.) I yearn for the day when I can write about good, clean fun like tax policy again.

Trump's Anti-Voter EO is an Attack on Democracy Itself Join Our Social Media Rally Against Trump’s Executive Order

Trump's anti-voter Executive Order is an ATTACK on DEMOCRACY itself.

It is 100% unconstitutional.

Learn about it here and spread the TRUTH:

This is how it's done.

A strong and principled response by WilmerHale to the illegal Executive Order attack - a form of attempted government intimidation declared unconstitutional by a federal judge.

This is how to guard the rule of law.

A table displaying information about multiple wildfires across North Carolina (NC), South Carolina (SC), and Tennessee (TN). The table includes columns such as wildfire name, county, state, fire discovery date, percentage contained, size in acres, estimated cost to date, estimated population, and estimated housing units. Some fires have known containment percentages and costs, while others are still marked as "unknown." The largest fire listed appears to be "Table Rock Complex" in Greenville, SC, covering 6,109 acres, with an estimated cost of $506,000.

A map showing the locations of active wildfires, prescribed burns, and fire warnings across parts of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. Various fire icons mark wildfire locations, with different symbols indicating new fires, prescribed fires, and other fire-related events. A brown haze on the map represents smoke-affected areas, and a legend in the bottom-left corner explains the different symbols. The map also shows surrounding cities, including Asheville, Knoxville, Greenville, and Spartanburg.

Oh wow, @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social did it

My friend and one of the absolute most whip-smart people I know is dead on, balls accurate with this. Listen tf up #democrats

Fact-check: True

There are those 4-5 minutes every morning while I’m waking up that I have hope, hope that I’ll pick up my phone and read that he and/or his hair-plugged, gender-affirming-surgery-altered, tech-bro henchman are dead. It’s that hope that sustains me

Yes. I had this exact thought.

All kidding aside, the reason he is doing this is to establish some kind of culpability by @profgalloway.com and I. We never threatened these people but it is all in service of getting his supporters to think we did. It’s not a random tweet — all planned for a larger effort to silence us or worse.

Thousands protest against Trump’s war on immigrants after Ice raids: ‘Fight for our neighbors’

Hey NYTimes — *now* you’re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of “Sauron: Avatar Of Evil… Or Extreme Uniter?” thumbsucker reporting you’re screaming what we’ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

How a Canadian scientist and a venomous lizard helped pave the way for Ozempic - National | Globalnews.ca In 1984, Dr. Daniel Drucker, an endocrinologist from the University of Toronto, discovered a hormone that helped pave the way for popular diabetes drugs such as Ozempic.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.

Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

I think you can figure it out based on the ridiculously false headline of the article

So, in your play to align with nationalism you post a fake headline. Cool. And f*** off with this

This is such nonsense. The city of Philadelphia abhors Mango Mussolini. Also, he wasn’t cheered. The boos definitely had it

This article is capitulation to an authoritarian. Hitler was popular in the beginning, but so was Jim Crow, secession, enslavement, etc, if you find the right people. I’m surprised you didn’t use the “real America” trope with this pseudointellectual foray into fascist appeasement
