Trump does something, and rather than holding HIM responsible, Democrats make 'rules' and try to pass bills to prevent FUTURE Presidents from doing it again.

And that's why trump does whatever the fuck he wants. He's NEVER held responsible for his actions.

Fucking. Ever.

I'm going to say it again b/c some folks on here seem confused...

if you were eligible to vote in the US in 2024 and you didn't vote for Harris/Walz...you are to blame for all of the horrors happening.

What’s that you say? FDA chief Marty Makary is a shitbird conspiracy theorist who thinks HIV came from a lab leak?

But of course. It’s why he got the job.
FDA Commissioner: HIV “May Very Well Have Come From a Lab”
During a recent podcast appearance, Dr. Marty Makary promoted lab origin conspiracy theories involving HIV, Lyme disease, and one dead raccoon.

Hey! Remember when Barr (Bondi) withheld the Mueller (Epstein) documents for weeks so he (she) could mischaracterize what was in the Mueller (Epstein) Report and spin the findings for three weeks and then over-redact them? I sure do!

Walz: "It's very clear that the entire federal government is weaponized against Minnesota. They're threatening us. And this is what happens when you have a floundering presidency and it's about those ballrooms. Now we're back on transgender folks."

Today is the deadline to release the Epstein files. The DOJ is refusing to comply.

This is about justice for survivors and holding participants and co-conspirators accountable.

The Epstein Files Act is the law, not a suggestion.

Release the files. Immediately.

Gonna stop looking at the Epstein Files in a second because I'm frankly way too skeeved out to keep going but I will say this: the CSAM isn't blacked out nearly enough while the faces of guys in ties are obscured by vanta black rectangles the size of the sun.

This was never about fixing the ACA. Republicans don’t want to replace it—they want to erase it. Strip health care from working people to bankroll more tax breaks for the wealthy. And Brad Sherman isn’t leading—he’s watching it happen.

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment fury at a rigged economic system.

To counter Trump’s fake populism and his culture wars, progressives should mount a real battle against economic elites who have shafted America’s middle and working classes.

One wonders, did they have a whole alphabet of matching letters on hand for just such an occasion? Having worked with federal contracting the process never moves this quickly. Maybe the board should also wear the FEMA hat so people after a disaster could receive assistance just as quickly!
The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington has the name of the Trump-Kennedy Center on the exterior of the building, just a day after Trump's hand-picked board voted to change the arts institution's name despite opposition from Congress and the Kennedy family.

Everything Trump does seems to be either a scam, a con job, a fraud, a lie, or pure bullshit.
He takes Congressionally approved funds from one area and reallocates them to another, all to mislead the nation into believing he's providing the troops with something extra.

Jack Smith has requested that Jim Jordan release the entire video of his 8-hour closed-door testimony which he gave this week to the House Judiciary Committee.

Will Jordan release the video to the public?

If not, why not?

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

Here's an example of how useless and frustrating internet laws to "protect kids" are in practice: When I'm in Ohio, where I am during the holidays, I can't use my Bluesky DMs—unless I hand over my ID to a company owned by Epic Games. Why? To protect kids, of course!

RFK Jr. promised Senator Bill Cassidy that he wouldn’t change the vaccine schedule and wouldn’t mess with the CDC website’s statement that vaccines don’t cause autism etc.

Anyone who cared enough to look beneath the surface would have seen why so many of us opposed and oppose him.

Were you or are you a science fiction fan? Check out this @literaryhub.bsky.social podcast with IL-09 candidate Kat Abughazaleh @katmabu.bsky.social It's interesting and enjoyable! Makes me want to run out and pick up some last minute Christmas gifts for readers in the extended family!
This was one of the most fun interviews I’ve done in a while!

I loved geeking out over sci-fi, historical fic, and my middle school One Direction phase.

Would like to see @heinrich.senate.gov and @lujan.senate.gov stand up to this ill informed and reprehensible bill!
NEW: They kept saying they were gonna do it and now they've done it

A group of clowns (Senators) have introduced a bill to FULLY REPEAL Section 230.

No reform, no replacement, just utter destruction of all online free speech.

We can't let this happen. Share & take action
