Image of a three-panel meme from The Muppet Christmas Carol. Panel 1: Ebenezer Scrooge leans out of a snowy window, shouting, “YOU THERE BOY! WHAT DAY IS IT?” Panel 2: A small Muppet boy standing in the snow replies, “WHY TODAY? TODAY IS DICK CHENEY DIED DAY!” Panel 3: Scrooge smiles joyfully from the window, saying, “THEN I HAVEN’T MISSED IT!”

Traditional American politics is premised on the notion that sometimes you lose and sometimes you win and you have to deal with that.

But Trumpism is premised on the notion that any result where you don’t win is illegitimate, unlawful, fraud, criminal.

You can’t negotiate with people like that.

The secretive donor circle that lifted JD Vance is now rewriting MAGA’s future Chris Buskirk put tech elites in power in Trump’s Washington. His efforts are grounded in a controversial theory: An “aristocracy” is needed to move the country forward.

Very telling that oligarchs want to be called aristocrats. On the donors who think they deserve to rule:

This is a classic form of voter intimidation—making people feel like it’s not safe to go to the polls. It moments like this where we need to summon our courage & vote anyhow. Vote in the tradition of the people who marched in Selma to secure the right to vote.

i really hate the notion that has taken hold that bush is not responsible for the shit bush did as president. yes, cheney was his advisor and wingman and his soul is soaked with the blood of iraqis and americans, but at the end of the day bush was the decider.

ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t. Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

That’s crazy. I wonder what happened in January

FUN FACT:

Our military is not being paid,

but the ICE gremlins are.

Make that make sense.

Police union leaders defending jan 6 after watching what those cops went through should have been the clarifying moment if nothing else (and there had been plenty before) bsky.app/profile/nota...

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

federal agents stealing children and sending them south. where have i heard about that before?

Riot cops standing a street with less-lethal weapons, and one in a gas mask has a cloud of pepper dust around his helmet.

Today in Portland, a fed shooting pepper balls from the roof of the ICE facility was so eager to aim for people’s heads, that after shooting one photographer in the head and another in the upper arm, they accidentally shot a DHS agent in the head. This photo shows the moment of impact;

How do I make Justice Kavanaugh watch this?

‘I realised I’d been ChatGPT-ed into bed’: how ‘Chatfishing’ made finding love on dating apps even weirder Where once people were duped by soft-focus photos and borrowed chat-up lines, now they have to watch out for computer-generated charm. But it’s one thing to use a witty phrase – another thing entirely...

You may call it ‘Chatfishing’, but I shall only refer to it as ‘Cyrano de Berger-App’

Listen to the response to this and look how easy it is to say it.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

It somehow took me over 24 hours to see this

A MAGA teenager was spurned by a teen girl so he sent pizza to her home to intimidate her. The police ignored it.

Then, he saw she mocked Charlie Kirk so he murdered her and her friend by ramming his truck into them at 70mph while they were riding their bikes.

He's now charged with murder.

Idiocracy was unrealistic only because we got dumber quicker than the movie anticipated

Mueller report - Wikipedia

It's really cool how a former director of the FBI wrote a 448 page report clearly outlining how the President is a Russian asset, so a threat to national security, obviously written so it could be used in impeachment proceedings...

and we all just kind of forgot about it.

I was told not to teach a class on the intellectual histories of Zionism and Anti-Zionism next year - not because they doubted I could teach it fairly, but because it would attract too many politicians scrutinizing the syllabus.

A society where that is a valid fear is no longer fully democratic.
