The Trump administration is split between smart people pretending to be stupid and stupid people pretending to be smart

For the last month, I've been posting examples of Trump's authoritarianism that I call "Dictator Move of the Day." If you search that phrase, you'll see that the fascist president is constantly trying to undermine our democracy. I'm going to keep doing these posts. We've got to stop him.

Robert F. Kennedy Sr. spent his time in government fighting *against* racist bigots who said these exact same things, except their rants were against “Africans”

“I don’t see it.” - Rutherford #Treksky

Every 5 year old has tried this one 🙃

This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.

Can pretty much guarantee that Bacchus consented to this interaction

“Departures from these practices should never be countenanced because they risk allowing prosecutors to impact national elections.” -Todd Blanche on DOJ’s 60-day rule, September 2024

In 2016, we published potentially the largest single feature to ever appear in Game Informer magazine with a full oral history of the legendary studio, BioWare. We've made that feature available online following reports of the studio's impending closure. gameinformer.com/feature/2026...

I would never pick a singular favorite Simpsons quote, but… “Marge you can’t keep blaming yourself. Just blame yourself once and move on” Definitely in the running.

We need a presidency that is equal parts Teddy Roosevelt and Franklin Roosevelt

Best week of the year, because I know @minakimes.bsky.social has to watch and post about a broncos game lol.

Actual common sense.

I posted a joke the other day about how my kid wanted a Mickey song that didn't exist, and a bunch of people were like "just AI to make it." I understand needing to please a toddler, but man--that's just not how I want him to think about music at all. It's not a vending machine.

“Just feels more racist, I guess?”

NEW: A source familiar with the Colorado Chamber of Commerce Gov forum says the candidates were provided with moderator Ed Sealover’s questions, word for word, in advance. GOP candidate Victor Marx is reading prepared answers, word for word, from a notebook on his lap.

Digger; A movie about a play being staged in the future, about their history, which is our present. I loved every minute.

interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”

Voter registration deadlines are SUNDAY in Alaska, Rhode Island, South Carolina. And MONDAY in: Arizona, Arkansas Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, and *Texas*. If you live in these states, verify your registration now, literally.

Don’t get complacent. They’re still going to try to cheat. Check your registration. Vote early if at all possible.

The Keynote Speaker at the Annual National Catholic Prayer Breakfast in March, folks.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

It is sad, but it’s more the hopeful kinda of sad, maybe. Idk just read it. #NYTimes #GiftLink

Broncos talk from Mina!!! 🥳🥳🥳

More than anything, Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil movie understands how it feels to play a Resident Evil game. gameinformer.com/movie-review...

This is the part many Americans -- including the Bezosites at the Washington Post -- don't understand. Canadians don't see this just as a Trump thing. It's that America elected him twice, and the second time with an even bigger mandate. The problem we're addressing is America, not Trump.

This is how I learned Matthew Rhys is Welsh.

Sure seems like we should revisit that whole "lying president tried to have his goons put an Olympic athlete in prison for his own incompetence" thing

Since becoming president again, Trump has promised: -$5000 stimulus checks via "DOGE dividend" -$2000 stimulus checks via "tariff dividend" -$1000+ checks via "savings" from expiring ACA subsidies -$5000 "dividend" if Rs win midterms No checks have been issued www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-magi...

So here's a quote from @pablo.show that applies to not only his Clippers investigation but the best of what journalism can be: www.nytimes.com/athletic/756...

The Jabba statute is just too good.

Still my favorite thing that NASA has ever done.

Someday, when this is all in the past and secrets become known, the level of corruption will be beyond what anyone can imagine. Far surpassing what we already know.

The shame conservatives make me feel for my own country really knows no bounds.

I remember when Bill Clinton—a FORMER president—met Obama’s sitting AG on an airplane and it was a massive scandal. Now, here’s Trump’s new AG just doing Trump political rallies like it’s NBD.

@denverpost.com I mean, we ARE the lakers’ daddy right?

I proudly endorse this message from my grandparents ❤️

We are live and about to nerd out on House of the Dragon with Justin right now. www.crowdcast.io/c/p23efuyocmln

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are trans athletes in youth sports.

Oh man that kicker at the end. Just beautiful 🤌🏼

Man, we are about to see some *crazy* panicked attempts at voter suppresion in this state
