the end is here. let's build a new beginning together
It's about time. People have continued to assume good faith in spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary
A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

The hope, of course, is that we will not have a democracy in two years, and they can ensure no one refuses.

What optimism.

A well known liar is lying?

I'm shocked. Shocked!

I'm not trying to shock anyone's delicate sensibilities, but the President of the United States is lying when he says that there's no need anymore to invade Greenland.

He's a cruel bully, and he enjoys lying to people.

Sure, everyone is depressed about the death of the old world order.

But as a history nerd it is FASCINATING to watch all of this unfold in real time.

In: Randomly stealing shit, kidnapping dictators, and claiming that might makes right.

It's normal to dissociate when things are too intense to handle.

If you experience that happening, talk to a mental health professional or a trusted friend.

The news right now is legitimately insane. Prioritize self-care.

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

The president of the United States has authorized the removal of a leader he did not like so that we can "be involved in the oil industry" because we are..

Such a wild coincidence that white supremacists love the letter x, and it surely means nothing at all.

So we're just lying in our oval office speeches now? Going fact free is certainly...a choice

I understand that Roth IRAs are important and we have to prepare for the future, Carol, but the President is doing crimes

This is not hyperbole.

Holy. Fucking. Shit.

This changes copyright law in one fell swoop.

Honestly? A step in the right direction. This is going to unleash a ton of creativity.

I don't know how much you're on social media, but the phrase "it's not left vs right, it's up vs down" is a brilliant piece of marketing. It's a simple meme, but it reframes how to think about class struggle.

I just came across a term and need to know if it's racist.

So now I'm having a talk with an AI to unpack the origin.
