A Wild Lib Appeared

Disturbingly detailed analysis of my first rewatch incoming

Benito carrying a football with musicians carrying flags behind him

Iconic moment as he says "God Bless América" and then names every country in South, Central, and North america in order

For the rest of the hemisphere, América doesn't mean the U.S.

It means evveeerrybody

Bad Bunny taking a shot glass from an old lady in the bodega

Incredible detail I just noticed

Benito takes a drink from this woman as he sings "un shot de cañita en casa de Toñita"

She is Maria Antonia Cay (aka Toñita), owner of the famous Caribbean Social Club in Brooklyn

A beloved place for the Latino community in NYC

I cannot emphasize enough that what he's singing here, obscured by beeps, is "If your boyfriend doesn't eat your ass, he'd better fuck off"

Reminder: In light of Bad Bunny's Superbowl performance spotlighting Latino culture, here's a hefty list of Latino speculative fiction authors I curated if anyone wants to take a gander and read some phenomenal work. Much love to all!

i think people mad about bad bunny’s performance have never been forced to consider that not everything is for you

call me "woke" or whatever but I think the Superbowl should have less football and more dancing latinas

Not trying to bust anyone’s bubble but it was not Liam.

Thank you for attempting to combat misinformation!

Thank you to the 97,000 + people who are now following me on Twitter. That’s almost one follower for every Donald Trump mention in the Epstein files!

Breaking: Democrats resoundingly defend red district in Louisiana, denying GOP its first pickup Republicans have yet to flip a single legislative seat since Trump's return

The GOP just had its best chance to finally flip a legislative seat in Trump 2.0. Democrats had other ideas.

Chasity Martinez just won a rural Trump+13 in the Louisiana House in a 24-point landslide—an overperformance of 37 points.

When Republicans do it / When Democrats do it

NSA detected phone call between foreign intelligence and a person close to Trump Whistleblower says that Tulsi Gabbard blocked agency from sharing report and delivered it to White House chief of staff

Details of the whistleblower complaint against DNI Tulsi Gabbard are emerging.

It's not great.

This administration is even more corrupt and compromised than anyone could have imagined. #ImpeachTulsi #ImpeachTrump

You all started it and we fucking finished it.

Here is one person on Threads debunking it, for those who want more info.

And to be clear, there are real risks that Trump could break the law and make an attempt to interfere with the midterms—no reason to use lies to get reactions on this topic.

No real source. No date on the post. Just screenshots of an all caps post and a Word doc.

If you do take the time to find the original post on Threads, you’ll find a Community Note saying there is no such executive order draft.

This is what misinformation on @BlueSky looks like. Don’t fall for it!

Amanda Nelson (@amandasmildtakes) on Threads On that “leaked” memo (ugh shut up) and the FBI raid

This was posted on Threads a week ago and debunked.

Somebody photoshopped the draft order one of Trump’s goons made after 2020 to say 2026.

We should be vigilant about what Trump might do to interfere with elections, but we don’t need misinformation.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

A Trump ‘Blockade’ Is Stalling Hundreds of Wind and Solar Projects Nationwide

SCAM: By delaying or blocking clean energy, they force the grid to run expensive fossil fuel plants. You pay more for electricity, but the money goes to Trump’s corrupt fossil fuel donors. Trump pays his donors back with your money.

The other shoe to drop: How many enrollees were forced to "buy down" to a worse plan with higher out of pocket costs?

Image of a Virginia Democrats' proposed congressional map that is drawn to elect a ten-to-one Democratic majority and flip four Republican seats in 2026. The district lines are displayed over top of a basemap with major roads and cities labeled. The districts are colored by the 2024 presidential winner's margin of victory, with Kamala Harris districts in blue and Donald Trump districts in red. Darker shades represent larger margins of victory. An embedded chart shows the 2024 presidential election results and the adult population racial demographics in each district. Kamala Harris won 10 of the 11 districts, while Black voters would retain their ability to elect their preferred candidates in Districts 3 and 4, which remain safely Democratic.

NEW: Virginia Dems have unveiled their proposed 10-1 congressional map in response to GOP gerrymanders in other states. It targets 4 Republicans & has 10 Harris seats.

It will be used in 2026 contingent upon an April 21 voter referendum.

Just to emphasize the point: @seancasten.bsky.social, if you were following @the-downballot.com, you'd know not to trust DDHQ calls! A win isn't real until it's called by the @apnews.com!

The G.O.P. Senator Who Can’t Stop Thinking About the Boy ICE Detained Katie Britt is uniquely positioned to reason with the Trump administration — when she chooses to speak up.

Representative Joaquin Castro of Texas said in a post on social media that he had picked up Liam and his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, from the Dilley detention center on Saturday night and escorted them to Minnesota on Sunday morning. He shared photos of the two on social media, including one showing Liam at the airport clutching what appeared to be a Pikachu toy and wearing a Pikachu backpack. Mr. Castro was part of a delegation of Democratic lawmakers who visited Liam and his father at the detention center last week, where he said Liam’s father had reported that the child was “very depressed” and hadn’t been eating well since they were detained earlier this month.

This is a remarkable @nytimes.com split screen:

A huge 3,526 word + photos profile on Sen Britt who "can't stop thinking about the boy ICE detained"

But Rep Jaoquin Castro- who actually got Liam Ramos out of detention & back home- gets no interview, no pix, just 116 words inside a story. WOW.

Troublemaker is my middle name.

Far too many ICE agents are lawless, cruel and despicable bullies.

Quick round up:

- the government is covering up evidence the president is a pedophile
- he’s openly taking bribes from foreign governments
- his masked agents are shooting citizens in the streets
- the FBI is helping him steal the election
- he’s threatening war against multiple allies

👍👍👍

If I die, I want my remains to be scattered at the US Capitol. Do not cremate me.

Would love to hear from @athensdems.bsky.social ...is there a plan to somehow field a candidate for #OH02? If not, can y'all make one?
