The Viceroy of Venezuela hasn't a clue.
Screenshot of a post on X by FactPost (@factpostnews) transcribing an exchange about U.S. involvement in Venezuela. The text reads: “Q: How much will US involvement in Venezuela cost the taxpayer? Rubio: It doesn't cost us any money. Q: The whole operation costs no money? Rubio: I don't have the numbers.” Below is a video still showing Marco Rubio speaking to reporters indoors, surrounded by microphones and several men in suits standing behind him. A 0:13 timestamp appears on the video thumbnail.

The universe finds a way.
Screenshot of a post on X by Pop Crave (@PopCrave) stating: “A professor from Austin Peay State University will be paid $500K after initially being fired for a social media post on Charlie Kirk’s death. The professor had simply reposted Kirk’s own thoughts about gun deaths and the Second Amendment.” Below the text are two side-by-side photos: on the left, a smiling man with dark hair and a beard; on the right, Charlie Kirk speaking at a podium with an American flag pin on his suit and a U.S. flag blurred in the background.

Hey! You can always report X, the everything app for generating child exploitation material in the App Store.

On the App Store page for X on iOS, scroll ALLL the way down and tap on Report a Problem. You’ll be prompted to sign in and detail the problem.
Screenshot for X on the iOS App Store. Numerous text fields but the relevant one is a Report a Problem link at the bottom of the page.

This is what RFK thinks about vulnerable children.
Screenshot of a post on X by Neil Stone (@DrNeilStone) quoting the phrase “Only very sick kids should die from measles,” then responding: “No, Secretary Kennedy. NO child should die from measles. Because there’s a vaccine to prevent it.” Below the text is a Fox News video still showing two men in suits speaking in a newsroom-like setting. A banner reads “MEASLES OUTBREAK” with a subheading “KENNEDY EXPLAINS RELIGIOUS OBJECTIONS FOR UNVACCINATED,” alongside Fox News branding and the word “EXCLUSIVE.”

I will reiterate that I've never had cause to regret abandoning the former Twitter more than two years ago now, and have suffered neither personally nor professionally for doing so. Since I left it's become more toxic and, yes, evil. The people who are still there should really consider moving on.

I reached out to more than three dozen X advertisers, xAI investors, politicians, and government agencies about the growing library of sexualized deepfakes generated with Grok—now including Renee Good. I only heard back from four, with three declining to comment.

Why isn't there a bigger Grok boycott?
Advertisers, politicians, and investors are still all-in on X, despite a sexual abuse crisis.

Non-consensual image creation / "deep-fake porn" has been a problem for a while that the legal system has only just begun to grapple with but part of what makes the Grok thing much worse is that it's delivered instantly & directly into replies to punish women for publicly speaking or even existing.

X basically industrialized the creation of fake porn of women who don't consent. Others did it first, but Grok made it normalized and centralized: publicly visible, instantly creatable by anyone, regardless of who's being targeted and dehumanized. Only question now is will X suffer any consequences

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times."

Bovino was there.

www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
Emily Heller lives near 33rd and Portland and said she woke up to a commotion outside her home. She said she saw a car blocking traffic on Portland Avenue that appeared to be part of a protest against federal law enforcement operations. Heller said she heard ICE agents telling the driver, a woman, to “get out of here.” “She was trying to turn around, and the ICE agent was in front of her car, and he pulled out a gun and put it right in — like, his midriff was on her bumper — and he reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times,” Heller said. Heller said it appeared the woman then accelerated and traveled about 100 feet before striking a utility pole and some other vehicles. She could be seen slumped over inside her car.

We all see what the Trump WH is doing here for Russia, right?
Screenshot of a post from NPR (@npr.org) stating that comments came in response to President Donald Trump’s renewed call for the mineral-rich Arctic island of Greenland to come under U.S. control after the weekend military operation in Venezuela. The post includes a link and a photo of two people speaking at microphones outdoors. Below, a headline reads: “Danish prime minister says a US takeover of Greenland would mark the end of NATO.”

Geography refresher needed at the State Department…
Screenshot of a post by Ben Hodges on X stating, “Venezuela is on another Continent.” The post quotes an earlier tweet by Aaron Rupar from December 19, 2025, quoting Marco Rubio saying of the Russia–Ukraine war, “It’s not our war. It’s a war on another continent.” Below the quoted text is a video still showing Marco Rubio speaking at a U.S. State Department podium. He is wearing a dark suit, white shirt, and red tie, and appears mid-gesture with one hand raised near his face. U.S. flags and a blue State Department backdrop are visible behind him.

taking a side step and saying the tendency to preface every compliment for dems with three paragraphs of shitting on them is bad actually.

Talking this one step further: Schumer and Jeffries are pretty good at their jobs actually.
aaronvandorn.bsky.social Aaron van Dorn @aaronvandorn.bsky.social · 4d
We need to stop conceding that Schumer and Jeffries are uniquely horrible and worthy of scorn. They are in impossible positions and no one else would be able to pull the magic lever or say the right words that would make things fine. You are conceding ground to the wreckers.

lrp; air groove has a Mood UP event where rudolf tells her a joke, and despite not quite getting it, she still compliments her on the attempt. groove knows that rudolf likes fishing for reactions with her puns, so she's more upset at herself for not genuinely contributing (she's so considerate 🥺)

Mayor Mamdani hasn't moved into Gracie Mansion yet and remains in his Astoria apartment for now, his team says. He expects to move at some point before his lease is up Jan. 30.

His team also shares this pic of him taking the W train to City Hall this morning from Astoria.
