Every Republican president of my lifetime has destroyed the global economy and it doesn’t matter at all electorally
the enduring wishcasting power of "republicans are good at the economy" is truly something to behold

It’s an explicit propaganda network. In case someone needed any more evidence.
An X user asks Elon Musk why they’re seeing tweets from left-wing lawmakers.

Musk: “Because we are failing very badly with the recommendations algorithm. Doing my best to address this.”

Before she died, my great-grandmother told me what her mother told her as swastika uniforms took her to the gas chambers:

"Remember you're a Jew; I'll return soon." She never saw her again.

A new Coast Guard policy says that same swastika isn't hate but "potentially divisive."

Never again is now.

My god.

After 4 days in ICE custody, they found the man in a shower stall hog-tied, with a sheet around his neck.

The medical examiner claimed there were other instances of this.

Which means this is not an isolated case.

not sure I even need to say this, but Trump threatening the lives of Ds in Congress is in itself an impeachable offense for which he should be removed.

I still want a newspaper to do an Impeachable Offense of the Day column.

It would get a lot of attention and frankly be quite easy to do.

In another example of testimony that wasn't backed up by evidence, the head of ICE ERO's Chicago Field Office testified that a protestor had "ripped a beard off an agent's face" and broken part of ICE's building.

When questioned, he admitted he had no evidence of this at all.

DHS claimed an incident on Oct. 3 showed agents were in danger of being "rammed."

In fact, body cams "suggest[] that the agent drove erratically and brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."

It's really shocking that Trump's DOJ, because a grand jury in the James Comey case refused to agree to their bogus indictment, bypassed that grand jury and lied to the judge about the grand jury deciding on fake indictments. Beyond appalling. Such a corrupt administration.

For Scott Bessen, invading Venezuela is apparently a great idea because the US can seize their oil and flood international markets with it. This is the same idea that Dick Cheney advanced to justify the invasion of Iraq, another brilliant Republican foreign policy misadventure.
Bessent: "If something happens down in Venezuela, we could really see oil prices go down even more."

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.
Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.
New: the govt has moved to dismiss its assault case against Marimar Martinez and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, two people accused of "box[ing] in" a Border Patrol vehicle in Chicago on Oct. 4.

One agent shot Martinez, with evidence presented to the court that he later bragged about in text messages.

If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.
If you scroll on X, you are only being shown what Elon wants you to see. If you create content on X, no one will see it unless Elon wants them to.
