UPDATE: Israeli soldiers have BOARDED the Handala aid flotilla.

Cameras being shut down.

Volunteers’ hands are up.

The ship seeking to give aid to Palestinians is carrying volunteers from the US, France, Italy, UK, Spain, Australia, and more.

it's so cool to read articles about how chatGPT gives people psychosis, that workers resent AI being shoved into all their applications and that AI companies are more overvalued than right before the dot com bubble burst simultaneously as the white house brags about how chatGPT runs the FDA now

1) USPS did not lose $3.3b. It provided a service that cost $3.3b. *The Pentagon* loses you money, however, every time it accidentally yeets a fighter jet off the deck of a carrier

Happy May 1st. The value of your labor belongs to you and the actions of the state are best understood as as a coordinated effort to distract you from this. The state fears an organized and unified proletariat like it fears death and rightly so. Power to the workers and power to the people

We’re getting an economic nuclear winter. But it was a small price to pay for ending free speech on campus.

'It's a Heist': Real Federal Auditors Are Horrified by DOGE WIRED talked to actual federal auditors about how government auditing works—and how DOGE is doing the opposite.

New from me! I spoke with real federal auditors about what an actual audit looks like. Spoiler: what DOGE is doing is not it.

"In no uncertain terms is this an audit. It’s a heist, stealing a vast amount of government data.”

Does narcan work on panic attacks too?

Senate Democrats will really be like “you believe in getting rid of the arcane Senate rules? that pales in effectiveness to my strategy, preserving the arcane Senate rules so we can use them when we’re the minority” and then not use the arcane Senate rules when they’re in the minority.

Get fucked, you goddamn worm!

Text: UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA GWYNNE A. WILCOX, Plaintiff, v. DONALD J. TRUMP, in his official capacity as President of the United States and MARVIN E. KAPLAN, in his official capacity as Chairman of the National Labor Relations Board, Civil Action No. 25-cv-334 Judge Beryl A. Howell Defendants. ORDER Upon consideration of plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment, ECF No. 10, defendants’ cross motion for summary judgment, ECF No. 23, the legal memoranda in support and in opposition, and the entire record herein, for the reasons set forth in the accompanying Memorandum Opinion, it is hereby-- ORDERED that plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment, ECF No. 10, is GRANTED; it is further ORDERED that defendants’ motion for summary judgment, ECF No. 23, is DENIED; it is further DECLARED that the termination of plaintiff Gwynne A. Wilcox was unlawful, in violation of the National Labor Relations Act, 29 U.S.C. § 153(a), and therefore null and void; it is further…

DECLARED that plaintiff Gwynne A. Wilcox remains a member of the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”), having been appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate to a five-year term on September 6, 2023, and she may be removed by the President prior to expiration of her term only “upon notice and hearing, for neglect of duty or malfeasance in office, but for no other cause,” pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 153(a); it is further ORDERED that plaintiff shall continue to serve as a member of the NLRB until her term expires pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 153(a), unless she is earlier removed “upon notice and hearing, for neglect of duty or malfeasance in office, ” id.; it is further ORDERED that defendant Mark Kaplan, as well as his subordinates, agents, and employees, are ENJOINED, during plaintiff’s term as a member of the NLRB, from removing plaintiff from her office without cause or in any way treating plaintiff as having been removed from office, from impeding in any way her ability to fulfill her duties as a member of the NLRB, and from denying or obstructing her authority or access to any benefits or resources of her office; it is further ORDERED that defendant Mark Kaplan and his subordinates, agents, and employees provide plaintiff with access to the necessary government facilities and equipment so that she may carry out her duties during her term as a member of the NLRB; and it is further ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court is directed to close this case. SO ORDERED. Date: March 6, 2025 This is a final and appealable order.

BREAKING: the U.S. District Court in D.C. has found that Trump’s firing of former NLRB Chair Gwynne A. Wilcox’s firing was unlawful, and ruled that she must be immediately reinstated to serve out the rest of her term as a board member.

She was appointed and confirmed to a 5-year term in 2023.

trump just shut down all weapons shipments to ukraine overnight so for all the people who spent all year feigning confusion about what biden could possibly have done to slow down the massacres in gaza, it would have looked like that

He was wearing stretch pants. Like, a suit doesn’t have Lycra

Wow, what a bitch

Terminally dumb.

What does this even mean?

sometimes i still think about how we were willing to settle for bernie sanders and rather than accept that coalition and the landslide victory that would have resulted, liberals decided to violently shit their pants for 10 years instead

Venezuelan Migrant Sent to Guantánamo Bay Is ‘Not a Criminal,’ Family Pleads (Gift Article) Luis Alberto Castillo arrived in the United States so that he could “give everything to his son,” said his sister. Then, while scrolling on TikTok, she found out he was headed to Guantánamo.

We only know this man is in Gitmo because Noem tweeted a propaganda photo that included him and his sister saw it. He has no criminal record. He entered the US in January and immediately made an appointment with CBP to claim asylum. They sent him to a concentration camp bc of his basketball tattoo.

Elon Musk is calling for the CFPB's remaining account balance of $711,586,678 to be returned to the American taxpayers.

That you give everyone $2-$3.

But returning Elon Musk’s money to taxpayers would give everyone about $1,300 each.

If you’re not going to even attempt doing a goddamn thing, you could at least have the decency to stop posting like this. The fuck is wrong with you people?

"The Chinese government will have your information."
Oh no, what are they gonna do? Spy on me without a warrant? Use my location data to charge me for paying for an abortion? Bring racketeering charges against me for protesting a facility where cops train to shoot civilians? Sounds scary.

Jesus Christ.
