Here's a direct link to the BANNED INTERVIEW with a man Trump doesn't want anyone to listen to, which CBS/FCC Trump flunkies blocked from airing on CBS/Paramount Plus. Colbert simply put it up on the Late Show youtube site. It may get taken down (not by Colbert) so do check it out soon.

All this talk about AOC running for president fails to remember that Obama wasn't ready either in 2008. Yes that year felt like the country was rounding the corner away from bigotry, but he failed to deliver long lasting policy. Recall he has 60 Dem senators at one point (yes including Manchin) ...
The worst case scenario for an AOC presidential run in 2028 is that she’s setting herself up for 2032 or 2036.

She is going to be president someday—it’s just a matter of time.
You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid
She’s only 36, and there’s a good argument that she should run for Senate and bide her time. But she also could be a formidable White House candidate.

the only people talking about the governor from CA running for potus are people screaming they won't vote for him.

all while claiming he is being shoved down their throats.

by whom?

all of the rest of us are focused on the task in front of us.

This is so embarrassing.

The cartel drones Pam Bondi was sounding the alarm about during the hearing turned out to be… party balloons.

This administration is so incompetent.

Wait so it *was* coordinated... Except it was to inflict maximum chaos and confusion, not on purpose, but as a consequence of the flailing from everyone on this regime. I doubted they were panicking, now it's clear there's nobody in control of the sinking shio.
Bondi: "The news is reporting that cartel drones are being shot down by our military. That's what we all should care about right now: protecting America."

Your reminder that the "crime" pretense for this unconstitutional institutionalized racism campaign is based on their bigoted delusions and little actual data grounded in reality.

Safer Internet Day is really about small habits

Don’t click dodgy links
Delete emails that feel off
Watch for weird grammar
Be wary of surveys
Don’t engage with trolls, block them
Use antivirus software and keep devices updated

Simple stuff, worth remembering

Immigration is not a problem! In fact, we need more immigrants! This is a made up issue designed by racists to steal money, terrorize communities, and tank the economy!

Should you get snatched out of your home on April 21st because you didn’t file your taxes on time? The government is focused on immigrants now but if you set the precedent that people should get kidnapped over paperwork there’s a whole lot of people who can get taken next

Recent events have revealed that Republican concerns about government overreach were never about that. They just don't want Democrats having power. They're fine with being part of an oppressive system if it benefits them.

NEW: Records reviewed by WIRED show DHS’s facial recognition app (Mobile Fortify) isn’t designed to actually "verify" identity—despite DHS claims and its agents relying on its matches to support probable cause in the field.
ICE and CBP’s Face-Recognition App Can’t Actually Verify Who People Are
ICE has used Mobile Fortify to identify immigrants and citizens alike over 100,000 times, by one estimate. It wasn't built to work like that—and only got approved after DHS abandoned its own privacy r...
