UTAH… this is not a game…

Metadata Shows the FBI’s ‘Raw’ Jeffrey Epstein Prison Video Was Likely Modified There is no evidence the footage was deceptively manipulated, but ambiguities around how the video was processed may further fuel conspiracy theories about Epstein's death.

I'm shocked said nobody

Demo's looking pretty good!

Revealing ICE agents' identities could lead to prison under new bill GOP Senator Blackburn said Democratic mayors are "doing everything they can" to block White House attempts to deport illegal immigrants.

Student loans in default to be referred to debt collection, Education Department says The Education Department will begin collection next month on student loans that are in default, including the garnishing of wages for potentially millions of borrowers, officials said Monday.

Well, that's not good at allllllll

U.S.-born man held for ICE under Florida's new anti-immigration law • Florida Phoenix Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez, a 20-year-old U.S. citizen, was being held in the Leon County Jail Thursday, charged with illegally entering Florida as an “unauthorized alien” — even as a supporter waved his...

More Trump nazi garbage, great shit. ICE holding another US citizen.

I hate to feel the need to be back to this again. I do also hope that one day my bluesky feed will be happy and clean again. I was actually enjoying what it originally set my acct up with, however, Trump's shit is inviting too much nazi garbage into the US and I am tired of keeping my mouth shut.

I'm sure this won't be seen but I'll say it anyway: Now that you went on the trip and know Trump is paying them. I'd go check on if that's one of his empty promises or if he did because congress is controlling the purse strings, NOT Trump, so where's that money coming from?

There’s just so much shady shit in this story, but this really sticks out. Folks in NLRB’s IT unit were so freaked out by what they saw DOGE doing that they wanted to notify the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Then this happened:

It never fails to piss me off ever time I see this happen too. This is an accountability thing, if they think they're in the 'right' so much doing their job they don't need a mask, and if they do need a mask they better rethink what their line of work is.

So what part of defending freedom involves disappearing students off the streets in broad daylight?

Some amount of positive news: Game Informer is coming back sans Gamestop with the same staff, good for them

Doge breaks into US Institute of Peace building after White House guts board Remaining members of board – Pete Hegseth, Marco Rubio and Peter Garvin – fire president of independent non-profit

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... more illegal stuff what a surprise, god, so over this clown.

My head canon is that it's like a Looney Toons portable hole and it keeps sliding down the wall unexpectedly

That said I do want this to become a thing eventually though. Especially AOC in particular fo'sure.

Well, I think it might have been a bad idea this last time. Though, Trump cannot legally do this again, I'm sure he'll try to worm into it, somehow. That being said, I dunno maybe still not a good time to since we can't risk not having time to come back from this lunacy first :|

Ex NFL player @chriswarcraft.bsky.social protesting the inclusion of a MAGA acronym in the Huntington Beach library plaque at last night’s council meeting. He was arrested and cited.

To elaborate on that, consider the neutrality of a situation especially elections. Our last election 1/3 of voters SAT OUT. If they didn't, Trump wouldn't have won. This is why you need to get people interested and care, neutrality usually helps the oppressor, you need to get the neutral out to vote

As someone that actually cares and follows politics, I get where you're coming from, and it's important. However, this is a big weakness of the dems too, you NEED to have your public messaging out there, or the GOP's messaging will stick to people instead. This is what I liked about Katie Porter tbh

NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

Honestly I get you on the branding. It might just be better to just stop using it and leave a pinned post about your id over here so there's linkage

I'm glad Jack had this in process when he left Twitter. Mastodon works similarly but it's open source nature just wasn't sucking enough people in quick enough. But bluesky's not shaping up too badly, hope it doesn't get too stupid ;)

It really sucks because I like classical Facebook because it's a great place to keep up with what local friends from college and shit are doing and stuff when we don't get to do a lot anymore, but ya know, he wants to turn it into a right wing shit show more I will probably try to avoid it even more

Yeah never liked the guy but once he did that he was starting to go off the deep end and it just gets deeper with him. Fuck that shit I'm out.

I guess Zuck has started forcing accts to follow trump/vance on FB and is blocking some democrat official channels and stuff now too

Wow. Elon seriously did the heil hitler salute twice on stage at the inauguration. What a disgusting piece of trash that doesn't belong there. I'm so glad I'm not really using twitter much now.

Yeah it's funny I'm not even a sports guy but NBA Jam was a pretty good game. College Slam was too, it was well, college teams, but similar, also had some of the goofy unrealistic mechanics. Like the one where you temporarily become a tornado, lol

Reminds me of Stadia, and how I said all the reasons it was going to blow up in their face and all of them happened just like that. Could have went somewhere, but man, so many little mistakes.
