Republicans declare themselves patriots, then turn around and block the paychecks of the men and women who defend America.

And what’s really wild, some of those same troops keep voting red while getting screwed over again and again.

Liberal men of bluesky - stop going to bars to meet women and start going to Target. The M/F ratio is way better and women are already there looking for things they don’t need but want.

And one more thing. Anyone who publicly begs for, and publicly demands, the Nobel Peace Prize should never be given the Nobel Peace Prize.

"In an authoritarian context, all journalism will tend toward propaganda unless it is explicitly formulated as anti-authoritarian. Unless an institution is explicitly designed to counter authoritarianism, it will end up aiding the authoritarians."

The Washington Post and CBS News are dying. The Bulwark is the future.

WATCH — @drjessicaknurick.bsky.social : “Here’s a partial list of things Trump is choosing to no longer study — food insecurity, gun violence, toxic exposures etc… Just because you don't measure it doesn't mean the problem went away. Censoring science & data collection is scary in a democracy.”

For the historically challenged:

Not every nazi shoved a person into the gas chamber.

EVERY nazi helped the trains run, the food get delivered, the stolen goods get transported, the vacations get approved.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.
