When journalism was cool. And risked everything to challenge power.

And to think I had such hope for Hope.

Perfect

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

I’m currently about 2/3 through Against The Day on audiobook. I have no idea what’s going on so I just kind of let it wash over me. The narrator is very good with voices.

#handsoff Omaha

Nero putted.

What if you’re so outrageously incompetent you get it done in a matter of minutes?

Are we great again yet is the new I told you so.

Hands Off! Omaha Fights Back · Indivisible **Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them.** Omaha is fighting back! They're taking everything they can get their hands on—our health care, our data, our jobs, our services—and ...

Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

Trump agenda for April

Screenshot of the Atlantic Signal exchanges, including Michael Waltz saying "the first target - their top missile guy - we had positive ID of him walking into his girlfriend's building and it's now collapsed".

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

OK, Schumer 🙄

Elon Musk’s penis rocket and exploding car companies have been given $38 billion in government funding, but he’s cutting funding for children’s cancer research, gutting the VA’s suicide prevention hotline and letting palettes of desperately needed food expire because it’s “wasteful spending.”

Musk reportedly spent $40M on #Superbowl ads calling #USAID wasteful. Here’s how we would’ve spent that $$:

🏈Purchased HIV treatment from U.S. pharma companies to keep 1M pp alive for 1 year. Tell Congress to youtu.be/PqUESHfuO_8 #saveforeignaid and #standwithUSAID

Representation without taxation for a handful of billionaires, taxation without representation for the rest of us.

That’s adorable

This. Times infinity.

It’s not about debt or efficiency.

USAID has its flaws, like any govt agency, & they shud be fixed. But it's the backbone of US "soft power", helping billions with hunger, HIV, disaster relief & more. It also makes up a small % of our GDP compared to others. Weakening it only paves the way for China to expand its global influence

I thought this manner of determining conflicts of interest applied only to Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court.

. @jahimes.bsky.social makes the case that when Donald Trump says something outrageous to get attention, it's because there's something else going on that he doesn't want to get attention.

Getting the Bund back together

Backlash builds as Elon Musk endorses Germany’s far right “Only the AfD can save Germany,” said the key Donald Trump ally.
