Can’t have universal health care on the off chance the government might screw up some medical decisions but sure, we can totally trust the government to tell which unaccountable black box is the least unqualified to make life-and-death decisions without any other guiding regulatory framework

nazis are all admitting that it was a nazi salute and that they all want to normalize it but the media is spending time debating whether it was a “awkward gesture” or not

Because history is considered inconvenient in advancing the undemocratic goals of this administration.

Dear members of the press,

Can one of you, PLEASE just ONE:

When Trump says we deleted all the evidence, please for the love of God, push back. The evidence is all here:

Covering? Enabling is the more accurate word choice here.

And it’s not even a question - we’re already seeing it in action.

Shame on any member of Congress who meets with a recalcitrant, pardoned seditionist. Even if they can't feel the shame, we know this can't be tolerated in a democracy.

Thank you Bishop Budde for sharing your words with conviction and compassion.

Today would have marked 52 years of Roe as the law of the land. But Donald Trump packed the Supreme Court with anti-abortion extremists to get it overturned.

This week, he cut off access to reproductiverights.gov.

We must keep fighting for women’s rights.

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

They obeyed in advance…AGAIN!

The Washington Post killed off its "Democracy Dies In Darkness" slogan.

New slogan: “Riveting Storytelling for All of America.”

You do realize that Tim Cook has personally donated $1 million to (and will also be attending) the Trump inauguration? We continue to witness how the individual beliefs of tech moguls are pervading the public companies they run, so I’m not holding my breath expecting Cook to be different.

In my time in Congress, I've never considered disaster relief based on how a state voted.

When people need help, we get them help. Period.

That cannot and should not change.

Sad news. Jack Smith is a man of integrity. I just hope the reports are released, so his hard work leads to the truth coming to light.

This case is not going against DJT himself, but it is important to hold his propaganda machines accountable for their spread of misinformation then and now.

Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.

I hope that everyone impacted by the truly horrific wildfires in Los Angeles remain safe. It’s almost impossible to fully comprehend the devastation caused by these fires — the worst in LA history — and my heart goes out to all of you. 💔

Zuckerberg: "We're going to move content moderation to Texas, a hotbed of white supremacy, LGBTQ hatred, anti-abortion zealotry, and all-around right-wing kookiness, because it will ensure a more even-handed tone. Kidding. It's so Trump won't break up the company."

Zuck now refusing to stop false info on FB is especially egregious given that FB disinformation already enabled the Rohingya genocide. This isn't hypothetical. It happened. FB wasn't held accountable. Now they're bent on enabling more disinformation on FB & God only knows what violence will result.
