What Stuart Stevens says is perfectly obvious, and something you will not see reflected in any of the major media coverage.

Trump to the Poor: Let Them Eat Ballroom Millions of Americans are about to lose food aid from the government, but the man in charge is focused on his ‘MAGA-Saddam,’ multi-million-dollar White House ballroom.

"And as millions face the prospect of starving, the president is obsessed over the fun minutiae of party-planning... Trump has spoken to senior administration officials about the idea of putting his name or image (like a bust) in the ballroom." - @swin24.bsky.social

How would you describe that worldview? My father told me something when I was very small to instill confidence in me: “Nobody in the world is worth more than you, but nobody’s worth less.” It is an egalitarian view that I’ve carried around in my life. That’s why I am for free schools, free universities, free health care, and free babysitting. Because our society could afford it. In America, people think social democracy is some kind of communism. They think capitalism is freedom. It’s not. It’s only freedom to exploit people.

stellan skarsgård seems like a good dude

They’re using American tax dollars to fund infrastructure in Argentina because that’s where they’re all going to flee when we kick them out of office

Last week I read The Sirens' Call from @chrislhayes.bsky.social. It made me think about the relationships between social media platforms, attention, and choice, and how much of our lives we unconsciously surrender to algorithms.

As if irony isn’t already dead, the Hatch Act violation on the DOJ website, which blames Democrats for the shutdown, appears on the page advising DOJ employees they are subject to the Hatch Act. joycevance.substack.com/p/a-note-abo...

The story of 2024 is this: Trump had a plan to destroy American government called Project 2025, which had, literally, not a typo, a 4% approval rating. He lied constantly and said he wouldn't do it.

Then he entered office and immediately implemented AN EVEN MORE EXTREME VERSION OF IT.

Welcome to October. Here's the latest on Sora, Jane Fonda, Jimmy Kimmel, Amazon, Bari Weiss, YouTube TV, "SNL," Hunter S. Thompson, and much more...

so the US government just forced a tech company to delete an app it doesn’t like, which is totally normal stuff

They (Stephen Miller and the whole Fox Gang) have taken the fabrication of facts and truth to the new level of not just deceiving the public but also DT in pursuit of the Project 2025 goals. They need a pretext for militarization so they are making one up. DT the useful idiot of his own idiocracy.

In Going After His Foes, Trump Sets a Precedent That Could Haunt His Allies

A grotesquery of false equivalence. Trump officials should/will be prosecuted because of their crimes, not because Trump established the precedent of prosecuting people because of their politics. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/u...

This is the perfect encapsulation of Trumpism -- because of its obsession with imagery, the White House crew caused a problem but blamed it on other people, leading to MAGA making threats against the United Nations for their own screw up

I would never leave the country because the fascists are trying to intimidate me but I might think about it for universal healthcare.

Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."

I'm going to keep at this: the Democrats would do themselves a huge favor by planning post-Trump retribution now, and communicating those plans to the nation. 1/

Seems bad for our society when you can’t make racist terrorists the villains

NEWS: Trump seems to be implying he is going to sue ABC for bringing back Jimmy Kimmel. This is why you never bend the knee to a bully.

ICE agents held 5-year-old girl outside Leominster home to get father to surrender, family says Video appears to show federal immigration agents trying to coax the man out of his Massachusetts home while asking, “Is that your daughter?”

ICE agents held a man’s five year old autistic daughter and taunted him with “Is that your daughter” in an attempt to get him to come out of the house.

They were rebuffed but two days later took him from his car.

Marked safe from The Rapture

Abolish ICE

Nexstar, the largest TV broadcaster, needs Donald Trump's approval for a $6 billion deal.

If approved, Nexstar would control TV stations reaching 80% of households — violating the cap set by Congress to protect against monopolies.

This censorship of Kimmel reeks of corruption.

Ok, so we can’t use Tylenol in pregnancy anymore…based on pseudoscience.

What’s next - no epidurals?

Because suffering in childbirth is “God’s plan” and “Eve’s punishment"

Stay tuned for the “Thou Shalt Feel The Pain of Childbirth Act" of 2025

Disney said Jimmy could come back Tuesday because they're sure they'd all be gone and raptured by then.

Publicize everyone who signs.

RFK Jr's war on vaccines is about shaming women, not helping kids The MAHA movement regards all childhood ailments as a sign that moms are failing

Looking at RFK's recent moves, including an attack on the hepatitis B vaccine and on painkillers for pregnant women.

The common theme: That all children's health problems are due to "bad" mothers.

This isn't about making kids healthy. It's misogyny.
