One can learn a lot from history!
Writing an episode on the last slave ship to land in the United States and it's just wild what shitty people the conspirators in the voyage were: One guy had been stabbed by his steamboat clerk, another stiffed the sailors he'd hired, another repeatedly wrecked steamboats while racing them.

Prime example of why there is no safe level of exposure to X propaganda, no matter how immune you think you are.

One day you're a highly intelligent, influential political leader. The next you're sharing content from an Infowars conspiracy theorist to your millions of followers.

Get off that site.

It's completely deranged how many news outlets are partnering with "prediction markets" which are just gambling with a fancy name. You'd never watch CNN if it were sponsored by roulette or the concept of "double or nothing."

I received notification of yet another death at an ICE facility, meaning 38 people have died in custody since Trump returned to office.

ICE is failing to ensure the health and safety of the people it is responsible for.

We need immediate oversight of this entire operation.

DHS abducts human beings and flies them to foreign prisons and to other places that are not their homes and sometimes the people they abducted are shackled for fifty hours with multiple stops.

Not a single one of them has ever stepped onto this plane.

you may also remember that the "board of peace" is structured so that donald trump, personally, has sole and absolute control over it. he's just stealing our fucking money. what i want from my dems? a commitment to take that shit back.
Trump: "I want to let you know that United States is going to make a contribution of $10 billion to the Board of Peace." (Congress has not appropriated this money!)
February 20, 2026 at 4:32 AM
Fair questions!
Does Trump have a US Treasury check book where he can just write 10 billion dollar checks? I mean, how does this work exactly, cutting out Congress?

It’s a big reason I was so flabbergasted that voters elected him, the second time!
Nobody believes this anymore but it’s absolutely true!

The COVID-19 pandemic was as bad as it was not just because Trump bungled it, but because he actively made it worse from the start. Almost everyone has forgotten this.
I guess people have forgotten that Trump started the pandemic by refusing to test and bringing in tens of thousands of people in crowded airports. and then stole PPE from blue states. and then suggested bleach or UV light might cure it. and then tried to kill Biden with it. and then

This is not something that can be swept under the rug. The American people deserve answers about these serious accusations against the President.

Transparency and the accountability are the bare minimum.

Everyone, please call your city council member.

Please let them know that you, a constituent, believe that vigorously funded and supported public libraries are among the greatest and most important public goods we could possibly have.
Mamdani makes cuts to library funding :( as reported in the gothamist

BREAKING NYT:

The husband of Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has been barred from the department's headquarters after at least two female staff members told officials that he had sexually assaulted them, according to people familiar with the decision and a police report obtained by The Times.

Meanwhile, Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer is under fire for taking her staff to a strip club in Portland and keeping a stash of booze in her office.

It's like this entire administration is a coke-fueled key party.
