Kinda wild to think that I bailed on Twitter way back when the new owner changed the site's icon to a picture of a dog, and it gave me a creepy "Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch" vibe. "Does this remind me of a Philip K. Dick novel?" turned out to a good early-warning system.

Never let a single goddamned person on the Right ever claim again that they’re the party of law and order without laughing in their lying face.
So Capitol Police officers were assaulted and injured on Jan 6th, the White House today is blaming them for the violence, and the people who attacked them have been pardoned and are back to mock and abuse them on the 5th anniversary.

And the GOP is the party of the police? Really? REALLY??
White House's newly-posted "timeline" of Jan 6 blames Capitol Police for Jan 6, which included an attack on ..... Capitol Police

The failure of our elites to hold Trump accountable for January 6th is as disgraceful as what happened on that awful day.

Since 2010, 35 democratic leaders around the world have been criminally convicted. Only Trump went unpunished and unconstrained.

Now he threatens democracy at home and abroad.

The lesson of January 6th is that it does absolutely no good to prosecute the the violent foot soldiers if you're not going to prosecute the leaders and hold them accountable for their sedition under the full force of the law.

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

A devastating story about the life and death of Lia Smith, a transgender woman and college student targeted by conservatives online because she briefly participated on the school's diving team. Lia was found dead by suicide last fall at the age of 21.

After a boutique on South Street received a warning letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for selling breast binders for gender-affirming care, the region’s transgender community worries about the potential wider impacts.

The destruction doesn't make for a photo-op like tearing down the East Wing of the White House or bulldozing the Rose Garden, but it's every bit as bad. Generations of American children learned to spell and count, learned the Preamble to the Constitution, from watching shows produced by the CPB.

Maduro should have hitched a ride on Epstein's Lolita Express.

He'd still be a free man.

Can't wait to hear Mike Johnson explain how he hasn't been watching the news or social media, and he didn't even know about Venezuela.

Happy 12th Anniversary 🎉

If you're trying to justify yourself for abstaining on the last vote because you didn't want to vote for the Genocide Lady, I'm sure the families of deported people, and the families of dead Venezuelans, will forgive you.

Whether it's Donald Trump demanding oil from Venezuela or Barack Obama demanding dijon mustard from a hot dog vendor, both presidents made some highly unorthodox requests.

Everything Is Russiagate truly lol
The cynics think today's attack on Venezuela is staged and transactional. Maduro is allied with Putin, but in 2019 Putin offered Trump a swap: Russia cedes Venezuela and gets Ukraine. (See Fiona Hill's testimony in Trump's first impeachment trial, h/t @davetroy.com). Even Maduro may be in on it. 2/
