Just a reminder, the layoffs in govt were just done out of spite, not necessity

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

Oh dang. This is an excellent analogy.

Smoke detectors should know what time of day it is so if they’re running low on batteries they can think, “that’s more of a mid-morning problem.”

In other words, THE PRESIDENT IS THREATENING TO ORDER THE MILITARY TO MURDER AMERICAN CITIZENS!!

The real generational divide is people who refuse to watch a video if it could be an article versus people who refuse to read an article if it could be a video

Alex Bolton @alexanderbolton Chuck Schumer tells reporters at White House that Trump seemed completely oblivious to impending increase in health insurance rates and closing of rural hospitals: "By his face and by the way he looked, I think he heard about them for the first time." 4:46 PM • 9/29/25 • 1K Views

bro we are so cooked

“The president should be removed from office because he is plainly insane.”

I mean, there is no war in Portland. There just isn’t. You can’t & won’t avoid reporting this story. But you’ll still find a way to try to report it in a way that gives him the benefit of the doubt.

And that’s wrong.

It is absolutely insane to me that we're having a debate over whether or not the rightwing deploys violent rhetoric within days of a Fox News personality calling for homeless people to be killed by lethal injection. There is no excuse for this obliviousness. It's unacceptable.

Remember all those times I've said "Keep on eye on Miller (and Vought)"? Or just "Miller" (bc I got lazy and stopped typing the first one)?

they did art criticism exactly the right way

Family and Medical Leave for Education Support Professionals | NEA Education support professionals shouldn’t have to choose between taking care of themselves and their loved ones, or holding onto their jobs.

School support staff are critical to ensuring our children can learn–but too often they don’t have the support they need to care for their own families.

A new bill would extend family & medical leave to these dedicated professionals!

…and we all benefit from it immensely.

I may get through the next three years but the four years after that when everyone trashes a Democratic POTUS trying to navigate the long term impacts of this disaster are likely to break me.

this week in american despotism: we can no longer buy things from other countries and fed independence is over unless the supreme court decides to step in (lol, lmao)

it’s monday

Authoritarian creep is real: the reaction to Shin’s arrest now (minimal on a national level) versus what it would have been six months ago should worry us all.

FUTURE HISTORY TEACHERS:
“It was 2025 and the nation looked ready to become a dictatorship. But thankfully at the last minute, the insane president had a sudden dissecting aortic aneurysm and died. He was replaced with a guy who was quickly defeated because everyone kept calling him ‘couch-fucker.’”

the dc takeover is a distraction from the putin summit is a distraction from epstein is a distraction from the jobs numbers is a distraction from ICE is a distraction from the economy is a distraction from the dc takeover is a distrac

Tim Walz: "I always get in trouble for it and I'll continue to say it, I don't think we do any favors when we don't name it -- these are fascist policies."

People outside of the U.S. see the country clearer than most of the people in the country. And all I hear from comrades in other countries is: "Are you all aware that you are living under a fascist government already?"

TRUMP: “D.C. restaurants are bursting thanks to me.”

D.C. RESTAURANT OWNERS:

I made this for you. And you. And your trans friend. And their cis friend’s trans kid. And your lawyer friend who does pro bono. And your mom who keeps saying we’re overreacting. And your attorney. And your partner. And your provider. And your representative. And your city councilor. But mostly you.

It's not just using the National Guard against People of Color

It's gerrymandering in Texas-depriving them of representation

It's ordering the Smithsonian to erase slavery from US history

It's attacking birthright citizenship

And it's all a reflection of Trump's warped, racist view of America

Republicans do more trickle down economic policy every single time they get a trifecta, and it's never worked. Not once. Not ever. And we always get a recession within a few years.

But people keep falling for it.

An economy that works for everyone is not a fantasy – it’s a choice For years we’ve been told that if the rich get richer, the benefits would trickle down to the rest of the population. But it hasn’t—it’s been sucked upward. Ali explains how U.S. economic policy rewards the elite at the expense of the working class.

NASA chief to defy agency's charter, terminating science NASA's 1958 charter's top priority was, "the expansion of human knowledge of phenomena in the atmosphere and space." Is this how it ends?

Just another yes-man lackey who doesn’t care about the history or the mission of the agency he was appointed to lead. He could never do the job of any of us at the agency so he sees no issue with destroying it.

A picture of the National Mall in DC, with practically no people in sight.

The latest thing Trump has done to DC: Scare the visitors away. Damaging all the businesses, large and small, that depend on them.

Along the National Mall today, 1pm, on a stunningly beautiful Saturday afternoon in late August.

(Article and more photos to come later today.)

It is so weird that a huge part of the Big Tough Guy persona is being absolutely terrified shitless of everything.

Just so everyone understands correctly, fascist republicans think it’s okay for them to gerrymander Texas and any state they control to seize power but they think it’s not okay for Democrats to do the same exact thing in order to counter their corrupt illegal cheating. 🤔
