Let me confirm this. An actual King agrees that America is founded on #nokings

If we can’t see the hypocrisy of claiming to be “pro life,” while also being pro assault rifles, pro war, pro death penalty, pro cutting healthcare, pro cutting food assistance, pro science denialism, and pro rolling back environmental protections now, I don’t think we ever will.

Is this sufficiently furry @radiofreetom.bsky.social ? Apologies for the lack of both blue stoneware and Easter.

I'm going to keep trying to make "Trump = National Socialism" happen. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-is-t...

Country music has long shed its Bible-bashing image. Today, bluegrass is helping to heal America’s deep divides

twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

I'm looking forward to Comey going to trial. I don't think it's going to go how they want it to go.

😕 💵

One reason I think so many people are being fired merely for quoting what Kirk actually said is that, based on what I've read, many of his followers were in social media silos where they never heard those things. Showing full picture risks Trump admin being able to capitalize on this politically

US President back-pedalling furiously after his administration treated some innocent hard-working Koreans like they were innocent hard-working Latinos.

This can't be real. Beginning to think I had a terrible accident and my brain is telling me to WAKE UP!

"Part of the point of giving the power to tax to the legislature instead of the executive is precisely to prevent this kind of extortion." And that's what it is - but don't count on it being challenged. @ilyasomin.bsky.social on Trump’s unconstitutional export tax:

"There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people." - Commander William Adama, Battlestar Galactica

at some point it should be aliens is all i am saying

It doesn’t matter. “Eradicating autism” is how they will justify institutionalizing, criminalizing, and exterminating anyone they label as autistic. Whether they’re actually autistic, mentally ill, transgender, or just not behaving the “right way.” Just like they’re doing with “immigrants.”

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

If we want an independent media that isn’t the plaything of oligarchs, we’re going to have to build it, together. Come ride with us. Test drive an annual Bulwark+ membership FREE for the next 30 days. Only 34 hours left!

I'm watching Daredevil and scrolling Bluesky and the TV show has a way more credible plot.

I have already seen headlines like "DOW surges 2000 points!" So dumb.

I can’t compete with this

Last night’s article in the Washington Post about D.C. police responding to a 911 call by illegally letting DOGE onto private property is unlike any news story I have ever read. Every single person should read this article and think about where our society is going.

need you to constantly remind yourself that the average normal person has no idea that any of the stuff we are rightly getting upset about is going on. they dont know. and we need to do everything we individually can to make them know.

In vast areas of the US, the sentiments expressed in this wonderful letter from a British man about why it's a privilege to pay tax to enable the National Health Service to run would see him probably certified as insane and labelled a "socialist".

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II. Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

Brave to @jeffstein.bsky.social, WaPo's chief economics correspondent, for not wasting any time in stating what must be stated. Hopefully the first of many.

Here are just a few of the gerrymandered monstrosities that Republican map-drawers have foisted on North Carolina voters:

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

“I knew someone on AA5432.” That was the subject of an email NPR host Adrian Ma sent to newsroom leaders in the hours after the DC plane crash. He trusted us with sharing his story — and her contagious energy. www.npr.org/2025/02/20/g...

Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, just 11 years old, “took her own life in Texas after she was tormented by classmates who threatened to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) authorities and have her family deported from the US, her grieving parents have said.” www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Historians looking back at this time will wonder how a generation that played "Monopoly" as children did not figure out that letting one person gain too much money and power might be a problem.

this is the sort of thing you post when you’re ramping up to defying lawful court orders

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

I'm about to listen to a, "How H1tler dismantled the govt in 90 days," podcast, bit what I REALLY want, is stories of countries who STOPPED a hostile Takeover. Can anyone point me to some of these?

This is a joke, right? Funny guy, that Chuck.

This is how you communicate. Highly recommend following the new NC AG. The funding freeze open.substack.com/pub/jeffjack...

i think an important thing for people outside the US to understand is that elon musk seized control of the government today and most americans don’t even realize it happened.

Every elected or aspiring D needs to read this from @joshtpm.bsky.social 100% endorse. Every word. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/who-c...

I spoke to a talented junior scientist who just got a good faculty job offer in the US and they told me “well I wouldn’t move to 1930s Germany either” so that’s how that’s going

A grim but essential memory: 80 years ago today Auschwitz was liberated. That there was an Auschwitz to liberate is unspeakably tragic. . . www.history.com/this-day-in-...

Pay attention to those whose words are betraying a desire for the American State interfere in the churches and resolve theological questions, who assume the purpose of the gospel in America is to create and sustain national unity.

SALON: “Tennessee @GovBillLee’s quiet decision to forgo $1.1 million in federal funding for summer meals… could leave 700,000 low-income children without access to summer meals in 2025.” 😳 Rep. Bo Mitchell calls it “despicable” www.salon.com/2025/01/08/m...

Sophie Scholl continues to be one of my favorite unsung figures in the 20th century. A girl who was raised to be a good Nazi standing up and Saying NO to a wicked regime. www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles...

We wanted to understand the economic rationale for buying Greenland. So we talked to three unvaccinated UFC fans at a Jersey Mike's in Toms River.

@martyduren.bsky.social you have an imposter

Absolute trash click-bait leading to something a school newspaper would be ashamed to publish.
