New, from me: Trump is prioritizing paying the armed forces over other federal employees during a shutdown. He is trying to win over the rank and file even as he tells military leaders to target “the enemy within.” 🧵

So, that's fun

Pure cowardice at a time of increasing crisis. Normalizing & "living with" rising authoritarianism isn't just spineless political hackery, its direct aide and comfort to those working to erode our constitutional rights and install a kleptocracy whose only mandate is: placate Trump's ego. Sickening
"I had friends say to me, look, we can oppose political violence without whitewashing this guy. I spent some time thinking about that over the weekend...and my reaction honestly is that it is too little to just say we oppose political violence."

I’m frankly disappointed with what I’ve learned about some people who profess to oppose political violence, but instead mock those unalived in political violence. It’s time to call out this hypocrisy.

No one knows exactly what was on the Venezuelan boat that was struck by the US military, but the fact that the strike was okayed by the president’s son suggests that there was no cocaine aboard.

I'm going to say this: I don't know that we appreciate just how special of a run Bandido is having across AEW/ROH right now and just how much Bandido has put into all of this physically and mentally. He's the best in the world right now, IMO.

Mina/Athena is stacking up to Bandido/Hechicero and that was a hard act to follow. Killer match so far

Bandido/Hechicero is an ALL TIME classic ROH match, and it ain't even over yet.

I enjoy watching ROH i just wish it had more meat on the bones. Just let people cut some more promos, shoot them with a damn iPhone if its a budget thing and give this stuff some weight. #watchroh

Folks, don't even engage in the bad-faith arguments and spin of the right-wing when it comes to the Minneapolis shooter.

You don't have to entertain their transphobia.

It's all bullshit distraction and hate.

We've come to the point where we can say, "F Off."

I dont post on here as much as I should but I heard the supposed good guy app was banning people for shitting on JK Rowling. I too would shit on JK Rowling but she's already so covered in it I fear no one would notice my offering. But despite all that shit we still see the evil hate monger clearly.

Amazing #ForbiddenDoor this year, my gripe was that I wanted Athena to win. But the match was great!

This makes me so damn happy.

Megan & Penelope dressed up as Warhammer ladies makes me think Shayna Baszler is coming. Probably not, but big Baszler vibes

The "stop using words that make a certain group of white dudes uncomfortable" takes are... morally bankrupt? Intellectually vapid? And definitely just in-group insecurity turned into out-group language policing
It would be a huge step forward for Democrats and for general clarity in political writing if these terms went away. These came mostly from academic hothouses.

NEW: Video shared with me from a bystander in DC shows multiple masked federal agents (at least one of whom appears to have an ICE badge) violently attacking and handcuffing a delivery worker in the street outside Bluestone Lane cafe near Logan Circle this morning.

Please take care when watching.

Kip Sabian in the ring vs Serpentico is big AEW 2020 vibes in the best way.

First massive L from AEW in a loooooong time for me. I dont need Tony Schiavone moralizing to anyone how to feel about that racist dick bag. A bad person died, if he wasn't a bad person the family wouldn't be seeing bad messages. Fuxk the Hulk Hogan. Nearly made me turn off AEW Dynamite. #wrestlesky
