I understand that my name makes me suspect, but I disavow the Irish Republican Army

The thing that most egregious about billionaires is the wholesale immunity from the law that their money buys and that they can buy elections. This is what pisses people off and it’s exactly what Dems should lean in to.

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

The highest priority for Democrats if/when they take the house and Senate is to reign in ICE. Any spending bill HAS to cut funding down to bare bones. Homan, Mullin and even Noem need to be hauled in to be interrogated b y Congress.

Some obvious points about probability that keeps getting lost in the AI debate. 1. A 10% chance of human extinction is not a prediction of human extinction. It’s a smallish percentage. 2. A 10% chance of extinction is not the same as a 10% chance of winning a football game.

Why isn’t there a purity test for Democrats taking money from Big Oil like there is for AIPAC?

The rift in MAGA which will hopefully doom them is between the people who despise Jews vs the people who despise Muslims.

He’s the TACO man…burnin up the markets for all his friends.

I hearby introduce a new verb to the English language Fetterman (v) to deceive voters by appearance and language that you’re a working class liberal when in reality you’re a wealthy conservative. “Platner looks great, but I’m concerned he may Fetterman us if he gets elected”

Some politicians push right to the edge of breaking laws and sometimes go over. Trump takes a big bold beautiful shit smack dab in the middle of the Constitution.

Friends & Resisters in Massachusetts please read repost & attend if you can. In response to the horrible ICE raid yesterday in Worcester , Ma. This Sunday May,11th there’s an emergency #Handsoff Worcester Mothers protest to protest the atrocities being committed by this administration.

So, three out of the five most dangerous geopolitical hotspots in the world are at war, and the forth is blinking red (Taiwan). All involve nuclear powers. The two solutions I see are fantasy… a global ban on social media and a global ban on male leaders.

On May 2nd, in Western NY, federal immigration agents stopped a bus of farm workers from Lynn-Ette & Sons Farms. They had a list of names, including UFW worker leaders who have been organizing to unionize their workplace. Those workers were detained. 1/ #WeFeedYou

“Joe Biden shit in my pants”

I see no reason that anybody who’s politically cognizant and left of center isn’t boycotting Amazon.

Republicans are scared to death that our candidates will swear off big money donors. That’s why they’re targeting ActBlue the Clearinghouse for small donations.

Why aren’t we talking up the first major victory by the resistance. Musk is leaving Washington AND WE DID it. Due in large part to our boycott and protest, Tesla stock has tanked and he needs to go back to work. Let’s keep it up!

The “Best and the Brightest” wasn’t great but it sure beat the “Worst and the Dimmest”.

Cabinet appointment that best met expectations-Peter Hegseth. Cabinet appointment worse than our lowest expectations-RFK jr

Oralè Resister Witness a Miracle in America Thank you Nashville! You gave me tears of hope. #HandsOff #MilagrosUSA

Let's elevate the fighters: Van Hollen for risking his life to find Abrego Garcia in El Salvador Booker for his 25 hr speech to expose on Trump & Musk's corruption Schatz for blocking 300 Trump nominees Bernie & AOC for rallying hundreds of thousands of Americans Newsom for suing Trump over tariffs

Little known fact. Every XO that the Felon issues has to be screened by the Department of Cruelty Enhancement (DCE). For instance the DCE determined that Earth Day would be best for removing tax exempt status from green non-profits

The real divide in America is between those who can imagine themselves being deported and those who'd like to imagine themselves doing the deporting.

Abu Ghraib, water boarding, CIA dark sites, family separation, and now extra constitutional deportations to CECOT. They’re all morally reprehensible. I’m wrestling with why the deportations FEEL so much worse. My best answer is the unflinching abrogation of constitutional rights threatens all of us.

Why are we only talking about Abrego Garcia when every one of the people sent to the prison were denied due process and more than half had no criminal record? If we somehow secure a win with AG but let the others rot, we haven’t stopped anything

Please check on this sweet human being so tragically kidnapped and jailed www.usatoday.com/story/news/i...

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US. When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

Dear SCOTUS. Do your fucking job! No more mealy mouth suggestions. ORDER Trump to return all the prisoners he Shanghaied to El Salvador back to the US.

Ken Burns should create a beautiful post-mortem for America, so future generations can really understand what a great country we once were.

The top story in the United States this week is the atrocities developing as a result of the relationship between Donald Trump and Nayib Bukele. Not tariffs. Not Katy Perry. Not whatever new dumb shit Elon Musk did. Major media needs to get this right and show America it is still paying attention.

A U.S. citizen was deported without due process—now the Supreme Court must decide if the rule of law still stands. Full story below.

Of all the people getting FAFOed, Wall Streeters like Bill Ackman, who are suddenly waking up to who they voted for are the most vile and unsympathetic. Do they give a rats ass about the innocent people sitting in a death camp in El Salvador? Rhetorical question.

Holy shit. Over at the other place the Sanders wing and the Reagan wing of the Democratic Party are going at each others throats.

I totally missed this last week—Walmart heir Christy Walton took out a full-page ad in The New York Times taking a shot directly at Trump. When even Walmart money is sounding the alarm, you know it’s bad. Walmart heir, y’all!

Just wondering. If the US invades a territory of Denmark will NATO article 5 be triggered?

The next person writing a book on how democracies fall needs to emphasize the utterly demoralizing effect of big institutions surrendering.

The biggest lie Republicans foisted on America is that they are the party of the working man It was genius to convince ordinary people to fight to the death for tax breaks to billionaires (2016 cartoon)

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests. So, best we share all the footage we can here! This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu. 🇹🇷 #Turkey

Been looking for something like this. A comprehensive one-stop-shop for all of the cruel, stupid, and illegal actions Musk and Trump have taken. With the news firehose blasting 24/7, we cannot let ourselves forget these things. Thanks, @emptywheel.bsky.social! www.emptywheel.net/2025/03/18/w...

Dear World. Please boycott America. It’s for our own good. Thank you.

ANTI-COUP ACTION STEP #1: All living former Presidents & VPs — both Dem & GOP: Clinton, Bush, Obama, Biden, Gore, Cheney, Pence & Harris — must hold a press conference saying that while they disagree on policy, all agree that Donald Trump is a danger to the republic. America needs you. Pass it on.

Here. I wrote about the point of deciding to just fight and die on a hill rather than endlessly calculating the best moment to put up an opposition. othermeans.io/p/going-down...
