I do really wish more reporters would just ask "Speaker Johnson, do you think it’s appropriate for the Speaker of the House—third in line of succession to the presidency—to be so consistently unfamiliar with current events?"

It's jarring to see how much money is going to ICE instead of education, healthcare, public transportation, international aid, green energy infrastructure, and the arts, but I guess that's the point.

FDA declines to review Moderna's mRNA flu shot Under Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Food and Drug Administration has taken an aggressive stance against mRNA technology.

I genuinely cannot believe the degree to which we are pissing away this generational breakthrough, even given the fuckmuppets who are involved www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

"We left with all of my children" seems a rather glib thing to say about taking your underage children to visit an already arrested pedophile.

the first choice is literally what Jesus would teach, i feel like i'm losing my mind

Vice President JD Vance gets roundly booed at the opening ceremony of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympics. "Those are a lot of boos for him, whistling jeering," says the presenter. US athletes receive a warm welcome from fans, though.

Yeah, the new Muppet Show is cute, and Sabrina Carpenter was basically the perfect first guest for it. If they make more they should do Chappel Roan next. The Muppet version of "Pink Pony Club" would be wild.

I read the “SAVE Act” (the GOP’s new voter suppression bill) so you don’t have to. This is my one page summary. Jesus it’s bad. 1/

Honestly, the more I see of this dude the more I like him.

"I was a stranger and you kidnapped and deported me". Matthew 25:35, as modified by Pastor Mike.

"Populist politics, online disinformation, cyber warfare, & cryptocurrency were all just scaffolding for his work as a financier and sex trafficker. A way to destabilize the global order, make connections with the world’s elites, and continue enriching himself and preying on vulnerable young girls."

The fact that both are quite experienced—8 years and 12 years with CBP—is yet more evidence that CBP should be abolished and all of its agents fired. There's no way to "reform" or "retrain" that, it's just a violent gang with badges.

The only conclusion I can come to is they believe their viewers are idiots.

"Employment" is such an antiquated word.

From the FT: “Unemployed Americans are taking longer to find new jobs than at any point in the past four years as muted hiring deepens concerns about the labour market.
It now takes an average of more than 11 weeks for an unemployed person in the US to find a new job, the longest since 2021…

Raise your hand if you think ICE should be abolished and their murderers prosecuted 🖐️

Instead of destroying the Department of Education, maybe this mistake of a department can be undone.

some dope named Gunther Eagleman on X who was clearly fed a steady diet of paint chips as a child posted a photo of a cardboard box with a pile of disposable hand warmers and the word FREE in bubble letters scrawled on the side and said: BREAKING: The "No-Go-Zone" in Minneapolis is getting fully stocked like a pop-up leftist supply depot, free hand warmers, winter gear, coffee, food, milk, you name it. This is PROFESSIONAL-grade logistics. Someone is BANKROLLING this autonomous zone.

nothing smacks of professional-grade logistics like FREE scrawled on a cardboard box in bubble letters

“Christians” worship a brown-skinned foreigner;
who was a refugee in hiding as a child;
commanded His true followers to welcome the stranger;
and was later the victim of state violence.
This part matters just a bit.

- Anti-vaccine "personal choice" BS
- School vouchers

Been thinking a lot lately about something I read recently. The correlation between far right authoritarian views and a lack of capacity for empathy.

- Being horrible to people
- Only caring about an issue when it finally affects you

White House post - Trump and a penguin walk towards a Greenland flag. “Embrace the penguin”.

There are many serious governments in the world.

The US is not one of them.

(There are no penguins in Greenland.)

I deleted TikTok back when the Oracle purchase was announced but if you've still got it, you GOTTA dump it. Especially for trans folks. It straight up says in the new TOS that they--Oracle, the company that has active ties to the Trump admin--are monitoring and documenting trans and NB users.

MINNESOTA VERSION OF COME OUT YE BLACK AND TANS

Will the Times chicken out and settle or will he TACO and drop the suit before discovery?

Which is why Republicans want to destroy it.

Repeat after me - the institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy, among which is the rule of law

Can the US build beautiful places again? As long as we remain car-dependent, no.

I don't understand why there are so many attempts at creating humanoid robots when Star Wars has been offering the best template since 1977.
