Notice no one is asking what people’s most controversial take on #Trek is but I realized I have one of those! Here it is: “Stardust City Rag” is 1 of the best eps they ever produced. Yes. The one where 7 has to beloved #Icheb. Perfect noir episode. Relevant bc #SNW is dropping a noir episode today.

It won’t be enough. So many voters of every political inclination are fed up with Trumplicans. We will breach the gerrymanders and produce the inevitable result: a lame duck

Any questions about why the GOP is desperately trying to cheat before the midterms?

The President of the United States is out of his mind — You’d think we would have contingency plans in place for that. What? We do?! Multiple options? Yet no one is using them? 5150 his ass & invoke the 25th while he’s getting the inpatient treatment he so clearly requires.

The “liberal belief system is abhorrent” to her but somehow we still managed to see the Nazi baby raper con man for what he is & she — with her superior belief system — guzzled every drop of his snake oil. A garbage person w a matching belief system. Apology not accepted. Never vote again.

A Trump voter that has finally woken up.

Keep trying. Everyone in the country will know her name by the time you give up. And everyone in the country SHOULD know her name, so if I were Tish James I might think about sending Asshole a thank you note for raising her profile exponentially.

Breaking news: The Justice Department once again failed to persuade a grand jury to indict New York Attorney General Letitia James, another setback for the Trump administration, which pursued mortgage fraud charges that experts have long viewed as weak.

🧪Scientists first identified HIV in 1983. HIV has been around for much longer. Research suggests HIV probably infected its first human about a century ago. It spread stealthily between people as early as the 1960s. At its peak in 1995, AIDS killed 50,628 Americans. Thinking of a friend today.

Commemorating #WorldAIDSday is an act of defiance against ideology driven policies that will end our progress to end the epidemic.

Yes. I feel such a tremendous sense of relief for me & simultaneously intense guilt for feeling that way given what those motherfuckers have done to our trans kin, *which will not stand*

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Ron Johnson says we have to starve America to save it. Typical.

Ron Johnson: "Government is their family member. It's their programs. Things like SNAP ... We've got 42m Americans on food stamps. We can't tell you how many illegal immigrants ... we need to reform these programs."

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Monster. He’s waging war on American children. All despised minorities & outgroups are in their crosshairs. SCOTUS has its first conference *next week* on whether to take a case that would overturn Same Sex Marriage.

NPR@npr.org

The White House plans to bar hospitals that treat transgender children and youth from getting any Medicare and Medicaid payments. The move would affect trans youth who have private insurance, too. n.pr/4qFa1mY

Chicago PD should be given orders to arrest federal agents on sight.

Heather Cherone@heathercherone.bsky.social

BREAKING: Federal agents fired tear gas at a crowd during an aggressive raid in Little Village with no warning, Ald. Byron Sigcho Lopez told @wttw.bsky.social. If agents deployed tear gas without a warning, that would violate an order issued by a federal judge two weeks ago.

I am not one to share personal details on my socials but I had to euthanize my beloved Oliver this morning. He was such a good boy. He was a cat who played fetch. Only 13 years old but riddled with cancer… We’re devastated. RIP, my good mister. I love you.

They waged war on that apartment building and all its tenants & got one lousy arrest out of it. The tenants had their apartments ransacked, their property stolen by the ransackers… This cannot continue. This is not civil society. This is a fascist making war on his own country.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social

Remember when Stephen Miller claimed the Chicago apartment raid was on a building “filled with Tren de Aragua terrorists”? Well, DHS has now dropped the number of alleged TdA members arrested in the building from 2 to 1.

_file_, lady. Don’t announce it before you do it.

ARIZONA AG: “.. Arizona’s right to a full delegation, and the right of the residents of CD 7 to representation from the person they recently voted for, are not up for debate ..” @politico.com #AZ07 www.politico.com/live-updates...

Oligarch guillotine insurance payments are in arrears. I’m worried the insurance company is gonna cancel their policy. Really, properly worried bc we all know what happens after that: the rest of us suffer & die. The ones without private islands and armies. The ones who actually work for a living.

Watched *REDS* last night — in its entirety — for the first time in years as my Diane Keaton memorial screening. Goddamn she’s good in that picture. And that picture is a fucking masterpiece. Super relevant for youngins wondering why we don’t have a Labour Party like every other western democracy.

The President of the United States, who is currently using federal agents and the military to wage war on his own country, now ups the ante and calls for an insurrection. As revenge for the failure of his last insurrection. He is destroying civil society. This cannot continue.

25th amendment this dementia addled potato.

Hillary will get indicted next. Is he gonna dispense with the show trial & just erect a gallows in the rose garden? Are we going to let him get away with this blatant & violent criminality funded by OUR tax dollars? #riseup

Krassensteins@krassenstein.bsky.social

New York Attorney General Letitia James has issued her first statement in the aftermath of being indicted by President Trump’s DOJ.

The President of the United States is not empowered to use the military to attack his own country. To claim he is doing so to restore a peace he is destroying is fascism to the core. It’s “I hurt my hand when I punched your face! How dare you hurt my hand? Apologize & say your face was at fault.”

When they invade your bldg in the middle of the night, breaking down every door, dragging every resident onto the st, some naked, some babies, some elderly—segregating by race—then ransack & steal from your violated homes, they’re the ones disturbing the peace. They’re the criminals. They’re evil.
