it is extra annoying that the nazis currently running the United States government are also twelve years old

like, really, we have to fear for our communities because of some groyper dipshits who post dank memes on 8chan all day

Because of Trump the economy is broken, healthcare is unaffordable, and the cost of living keeps climbing. It will take new ideas to help real people affected.

FLASHBACK 👇🏽— Rep. @aftynbehn.bsky.social getting dragged out for protesting then-Speaker Casada’s support for Rep. Byrd, who apologized ON TAPE to 1 of 3 girls who say he sexually abused them as their 🏀 coach. (Casada was just pardoned by Trump for corruption)

Epstein Alleged in Emails That Trump Knew of His Conduct

"House Democrats on Wednesday released emails in which Jeffrey Epstein wrote that President Trump had “spent hours at my house” with one of Epstein’s victims, among other messages that suggested that the convicted sex offender believed Mr. Trump knew more about his abuse than he has acknowledged."

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Important to understand this. There's a reasonable chance that your Dem Senator who voted against it and is acting mad now was in on the play. It's the same reason why they scheduled the surrender for AFTER the election this week. They didn't want people pissed at Dems right before an election.

This is 100% true. I’m in Manhattan today for work and they made me convert to Islam before I was allowed to purchase my BEC and coffee this morning. Inshallah I’m able to get a slice of pizza tonight because the ration lines are so long.

Obama Calls Mamdani to Praise His Campaign and Offers to Be Sounding Board

President Obama called Zohran Mamdani on Saturday — praising his campaign and offering to be a "sounding board" into the future.

Obama said he was invested in Mamdani's success beyond the election on Tuesday.

"Your campaign has been impressive to watch," Obama told Mamdani.

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking

Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague. And if the response from ICE to people exercising their first amendment right is to drive vehicles through them, they should not be an agency in the US.

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

This is the language of dictators.

Check it! 🙌

I am begging political editors at legacy outlets to wait for confirmation before publishing misinformation that contributes to targeting vulnerable people. You don't need to be first on this. I promise you there are things more important than being first. Like your integrity.

Immigrants are not the villain in your story

Epstein survivors deserve justice. No matter how powerful the perpetrators

The Public Health Approach to Prevention Hate, intolerance, and polarization are pulling people apart from each other, rupturing relationships and communities.

The largest rally of Epstein survivors is happening right now. The system tried to silence them, but they’re louder than ever.

Kinda hard to avoid the feeling that the military flyovers taking place over D.C. right now are intentional as ordered to interfere with the Epstein survivors press conference on the Hill. Survivors have paused their remarks until the flyovers pass.

An image with four panels of a man on a bus who says to Zohran, “How do you navigate making it free and also not being seen as a socialist?” “Well, I’m not really worried about that part.”

Situation on 14th St and W St. NW, with federal agents -- no specific agency identified -- pulling cars over for checks. They arrested a Black woman in this car.

BIG crowd of people shouting at police.

"Fuck you!"

"What is wrong with you!"

"You don't need to terrorize people like this!"

I hope your community is never occupied like LA or DC. But if it is, you’ll quickly find that people don’t take kindly to having their city under federal control. And folks are just getting started.

Berman: Was the President right about the polling?

Enten: No. If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself.

Mamdani: I would say that for the former governor to have spent an entire day speaking almost exclusively about me and barely about the New Yorkers who have been killed is indicative of the very politics New Yorkers want to leave in the past.

YouTube video by The Contrarian What is the connection between the alt-right and violent misogyny?

Why are young boys in school telling their female peers “your body, my choice?”

Dr. Cynthia Miller-Idriss joins Jen to discuss the far-right misogyny, influencer culture, and neo-natalist rhetoric shaping young men.

I don't think most Americans realize how hard tariffs are about to hit them. The combination of 1) escalating tariffs, 2) companies slowly passing the cost to consumers, and 3) the repeal of the de minimis exemption in the Big Beautiful Bill, a lot stuff will be more expensive in 2027.

To be clear, this now a massive cover up involving the President, the Attorney General, the FBI Director, and the GOP Congress.
