“Are you abandoning your jobs?”

🔥 🔥 TEXAS DEM REP. ANN JOHNSON: “Yeah no — abandoning your job is going to Cancun in the middle of a deadly freeze…”

A+ answer from Rep. Johnson here. @texasdemocrats.bsky.social

Why you might not know that 2024 was America's safest year since the 1960s An overwhelming majority of Americans, 64 percent, believe that crime increased across the country in 2024, according to a Gallup survey conducted late last year.

1. This week, the FBI released its comprehensive crime report for 2024, which revealed that both VIOLENT CRIME and PROPERTY CRIME reached their LOWEST LEVELS SINCE THE 1960s

This a massive story. But you might not have heard about it, even if you follow the news closely.

Here's why.

If you’re wondering how ICE recruitment and training is going under Kristi Noem—South Park already nailed it.

Substack's extremist ecosystem is flourishing Yup, they're still at it.

It's a Nazi bar.

I hope everyone's in full support of these Texas Democrats whose names I never see in media coverage for some mysterious reason

Oh, is the internet still complaining that Dems never do anything & both sides are the same?

They're doing something. Not just giving speeches. Stand up for them ffs

Hey, @joshuabenton.com What is WNYC doing at number 11 when it has the largest market in the country?

Update:

THANKS, OBAMA

The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didn’t). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesn’t). The jobs numbers were rigged (they weren’t).

I could say something funny here, but I won’t. It’s just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.

Five takeaways from our investigation on foster kids in private psychiatric hospitals Thousands of children have been sent to facilities run by a scandal-plagued health care giant.

Universal Health Services, the country’s largest psychiatric hospital chain, claims on its website to provide compassionate care.

But a yearlong Mother Jones investigation tells a different story, shedding light on a large, profitable, and often-overlooked patient base: foster kids.

Trump administration debating releasing transcript of Ghislaine Maxwell interview with DOJ, sources say | CNN Politics The Justice Department has an audio recording of the interview it conducted with Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell last month, and the administration is considering releasing a transcript of...

OK just my two cents but if Maxwell's lawyers aren't screaming bloody murder about this you can't trust a single thing in that whole interview.

ILLINOIS GOV. J.B. PRITZKER (D): "If they're gonna cheat, then all of us have to take a hard look at what the effect of that cheating is on democracy . And that means we've all got to stand up and do the right thing. So as far as I'm concerned, everything is on the table."

I know right? I just tossed out the old pair which I cannabalized one ear piece from. Ah well. I have a much older pair of prescription sunglasses which I can use but inside it makes me look like Joe Esterhazy or some old Hollywood creep lol.

LATEST: An elderly man appears to have broken onto the roof of a DC building and is gesticulating and shouting at people below.

We'll see how things go today as I manage broken glasses while doing... anything. Currently weathering boutas of rage quitting, tossing the glasses down then swearing because the new ones won't arrive for a while. Poor me. Send popsicles.

literally has no idea where the fuck he even is

it's like they're hinting to us that he's sundowning

A disconcerting number of high status people upended their worldviews because other people did not affirm that status in the way they thought appropriate.
And social media accelerated this because for high status people it is often the experience of people telling you that you are wrong.

Ghislaine Maxwell is a sex trafficker & predator! She’s a psychopath,monster & dangerous!

We are going to keep talking about this. This will never go away. You can’t erase or run from your past. She’s where she belongs. LOCKED UP!

FELON Trump is the Epstein Files.He was EPSTEIN’s partner in Crime

We need to be talking to Trump voters who thought he was going to upend the status quo, and show them how he is just protecting the powerful, corrupt, and lawless.

“He lied to you,” we need to tell them. “And so it’s ok for you to walk away.”
