It is entirely possible to be respectful about the death of a person you disagreed with without “honoring” him by vowing to continue his disagreeable, hateful “work.”

It is sickening that FEMA funds that were allocated to help victims of natural disasters recover, are being used to build an ICE concentration camp in the Everglades.

Republicans Love-Hate Relationships With Masks #ABlueView🧵1/2

Going back thru my cartoons collected over the years, apparently it depends on who's wearing them (Dems bad, ICE good) and why (preventing disease bad, enabling unconstitutional police behavior good).

He was humiliated last weekend. This weekend he bombed someone.

My guess is there is a relationship between those two events.

Clark Yannick Grant Vladeck, Raskin & Clark, P.C. Joon H. Kim Jennifer Kennedy Park Abena Mainoo Rahul Mukhi Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP August 3, 2021

The allegations against Cuomo that forced him to resign aren’t he-said, she-said.

They’re he-said, she-said, she-said, she-said, she-said, she-said, she-said, she-said, she-said, she-said, she-said, she-said.

The NY AG found he sexually harassed 11 women. So he quit.

RNC Summer Retreat 2025 flyer

It’s so on brand Trump Republicans claim CA is under siege WHILE the RNC hosts its Summer Retreat…IN L.A. 🤣 Rumored to be at the Beverly Hills Four Seasons Hotel. It’s all so ridiculous. L.A…Safe enough for the RNC but not Angelenos 🤣🤷‍♀️ At least it’s not at a landscaping company this time

Earlier today ICE agents hit someone with a car and tear gassed a neighborhood, sparking several fires and disrupting businesses.

Immigrants, by contrast, did not.

Check out the part where the White House says they have zero tolerance for violence against law enforcement. They left out a footnote: Except for pardoning people who did that on J6.

Pope Leo sells out stadium for event scheduled on the same day as Trump's birthday parade. - The Mind Shield Pope Leo XIV sold out stadium for an event scheduled for the same day as Donald Trump's military parade.

Tickets for Pope Leo's stadium event in Chicago, held on the same day as that man's birthday parade, are sold out while tickets for trump's thing remain available.

Nature ran a piece finding that 25 million people could die as a result of ending USAID. This puts Trump and Musk in the category of the most brutal leaders of the 20th century in terms of unnecessary lives lost.

Opinion | Don’t Roll Your Eyes at Due Process (Gift Article) It doesn’t just protect a person’s liberty and dignity. It’s a humble acknowledgment of our own limitations.

David does a good job outlining due process’ practical and moral components

Others have said it, and I agree, someone should just declare their presidential run right now. Start promising to fix the economy, make housing affordable, subsidize childcare, etc. and watch the attention economy pivot from the train wreck on a dime. Make them react to a competent vision!

The White House publication showing the tariff schedule. BIOT is listed with a 10% tariff.

A photo from above of the US military base on Diego Garcia. A runway is the most visible landmark.

The stupidity in Trump’s new tariffs is apparently limitless.

He has introduced a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory.

The only inhabited island there is Diego Garcia, home to US service personnel.

TRUMP HAS PUT A TARIFF ON A US MILITARY BASE

Carney: Canada must be looking elsewhere to expand our trade, to build our economy, and to protect our sovereignty. Canada is ready to take a leadership role in building a coalition of likeminded countries who share our values… If the US no longer wants to lead, Canada will

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

We’re in DC to see the doctors—aka politicians who think they can dictate our healthcare and take away $ from Medicaid, so @bookersquared.bsky.social teamed up with Abortion AF for an emergency walk-in with Dr. Lawmaker (Senator Schumer). They’re cosplaying doctor, so we’re here for a consult.

The AAF squad also pulled up to Rep. Fischbach's office in DC to confront her since she thinks she knows better than doctors. We’re forcing lawmakers to face the life-or-death decisions they’ve been making for US from afar. Let’s see what these so-called gynoticians do when face-to-face.

Does….. our national security advisor think it makes him look better if a random person infiltrated his war planning text chain? 😂

Breaking News! A HUGE UPSET and victory as Democrats showed up and flipped a seat Republicans have held for over 46 years and Trump won by over 20 points in 2024. 🫳🏼🎤

One race at a time we are going to take back our country.

LFG!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Democrats appear on track to flip a state senate district Trump win by 20 points in Pennsylvania tonight in a special election. The last time a Democrat even ran in this district was in 2018 and they lost by over 30 points. The backlash has officially begun.

The ABA does not license lawyers & has no authority to disbar them.

Musk, Thiel and the shadow of apartheid South Africa The parallels between South Africa then and the US today are striking

“In short, four of Maga’s most influential voices are fiftysomething white men with formative experiences in apartheid South Africa. This probably isn’t a coincidence.” www.ft.com/content/cfbf...

Still the best two sentences on climate action.

Before he was president, Jimmy Carter saved nuclear reactor after meltdown In 1952, when a Canadian nuclear reactor suffered a partial meltdown, officials turned to a young Navy sailor who could deal with the situation: 28-year-old future president Jimmy Carter.

Today, we mourn the passing of Jimmy Carter, 39th President of the United States of America.

But we should also celebrate his incredible life. Few people have had as much positive impact on the world.

This story of bravery is how I will remember him.

The next time you hear someone in Donald Trump's circle talking about cutting SS, Medicare, VA Benefits, etc., remember the times that lousy son of a bitch filed bankruptcy, and taxpayers picked up the amount that was discharged—hundreds of millions of dollars. Taxpayers who were already struggling.

In the "can they actually be this ignorant???" category:

Total Congressional appropriations for the FDIC are **ZERO**.

It's entirely funded by premiums paid by the banks.

Great going, Musk and Vivek.

America Is Now An Oligarchy #ABlueView

Even though law limits personal contributions to $44.6K, Musk spent $277M on Trump's election.

This staggering amount is equal to 73% of what Trump's campaign itself raised! Yet it is just 0.07% of Musk's wealth.

Ex-Tulsi Gabbard Aides: She Was a Devout Consumer of Kremlin Propaganda “There certainly isn’t any guarantee to Putin that we won’t try to overthrow Russia’s government,” Gabbard wrote in a 2017 memo to staff, obtained by ABC News.

Tulsi Gabbard, who Trump plans to nominate as his director of national intelligence, was a faithful consumer of Kremlin-controlled propaganda network RT, three of her former aides said. Critics say she’s increasingly grown soft on Putin’s Russia, and some lawmakers question her commitment to the US.
