Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

Now PBS Is Censoring a Film About Free Speech A worrying pattern has taken hold in public television.

PBS insisted on removing a 90-second segment from a documentary about Art Spiegelman that was critical of Donald Trump. Daniel Engber reports on a worrying trend in public television:

I agree.

If they don't take a stand now, there will not be another time.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

JD Vance thinks monarchists have some good ideas Vance is cribbing ideas from tech’s anti-democracy wing.

Important to note that Vance has always wanted a king to boss him around like a little boy -- @gabydvj.bsky.social dug into it last year

Elon Musk keeps boosting white nationalists on X One user Musk amplified frequently attacks Black people and has said he is "impressed" by the Holocaust.

The richest man in the world—who has now installed unqualified loyalists throughout the US government—is getting much of his information from far-right sources who present a world in which “Western Civilization” is in an existential struggle against Black and brown invaders.

Posted around NYC, Chicago, DC and other cities. Be creative. Do something!

Exclusive: Musk aides lock government workers out of computer systems at US agency, sources say Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees, according to two agency officials.

it's not hyperbolic to say we're witnessing a coup.

Any US Senator who votes for Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr. or Kash Patel are betraying their oath of office to serve their constituents and uphold the Constitution.

This is the most vile, disgusting presidential response to a tragedy I could possibly imagine.

If you want to understand what’s happening today, this clear-eyed @propublica.org report from November is a great place to start.

Excerpt from Wikipedia: “President-elect Donald Trump tweeted: "My thoughts and prayers are with the great people of Tennessee during these terrible wildfires. Stay safe!"[24][25]”

🧵 How do we know Trump is full of sh** when he shrieks about “hydrants running dry”?

Because in 2016, a horrendous wildfire hit Gatlinburg Tennessee.

Hydrants ran dry and 14 people died. A higher death toll than the LA Fires.

But Tennessee had a GOP governor, so newly-elected Trump posted:

Elon’s estranged daughter has re-entered the chat

This is apparently the closest the New York Times can get to saying what is really happening -- Republicans are trying to steal an election for state Supreme Court justice by throwing out 60,000 lawful votes.

Well, this is certainly the most on-the-nose hilarious clip in recorded history.
