1. Anti-trans outrage is losing its bite.

Last week, Elon Musk led a mass boycott campaign to get trans characters removed from shows on the platform.

Major conservatives joined in.

Now, we have the result: the boycott was a fizzle, and Netflix stock is up.

My birthday is on the 27th.

And because of this censoring of my account, no one will see.

Fuck you, Dan. I hope your wife leaves you.

"whether true or not" is not something you type out if you're trying to make a point.

Like, that's just bad faith

look, biden was committed to backing israel practically without conditions and in this specific context, trump’s highly personalist brand of politics turned out to be an improvement. kamala was explicitly signalling she intended to stay the course (whether true or not)

Again, Trump has crossed a Red Line no president has ever crossed: personally ordering the criminal prosecution of an American he doesn't like despite DOJ not finding evidence of any crime.

If Trump can do this to the powerful, he can do it to you. That's not freedom, and its not America.

New York Attorney General Letitia James @newyorkstateag.bsky.social · 19h

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Isn’t that so emblematic of this man’s legacy? Asked to give a message to suffering US citizens, his first instinct isn’t to offer comfort or reassurance but blame.

Q: What's your message to families facing missed paychecks because of the shutdown?

TRUMP: Blame the Democrats. It's their fault.

How is that probable cause?!

Screenshot of a tweet from Matt Hill (@thematthill) on X. The tweet states that Greg Bovino admitted agents can detain people based on behavior like looking scared or gripping the steering wheel tightly, even if they’re U.S. citizens. Below is a CNN screenshot showing Bovino being interviewed, with the headline: ‘Exclusive: Agent leading Trump’s immigration crackdown speaks to CNN.’

I would like to get to a place where consigning 14 million people to death isn’t described as “DOGE didn’t do much.”

Carl Quintanilla @carlquintanilla.bsky.social · 1d

Did DOGE save us $2 trillion?

“Not even close. .. Total spending excluding interest rose $220 billion, or 4%, for the entire fiscal year.” 🤡
