The last time there was a no kings protest a white nationalist assassinated a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband. What do they think they're doing with this rhetoric

It’s very much Not Great to have GOP leadership describe a planned non violent march as being in service a the “terrorist wing”

Emmer: "This is about one thing and one thing alone -- to score political points with the terrorist wing of their party, which is set to hold a hate America rally in DC next week."

She seems like the type to say "it's wine o'clock!" before writing a piece about how the kids in Gaza deserve it

I think this is why the Kimmel situation felt so big last week. Our institutions, whether they're schools or even corporations, should feer cooperating with the government. Make it an impossible choice.

Pizza Hut Big New Yorker (1999-circa 2005): A massive "NYC-style" pizza, consisting of 8 wide, foldable slices. This pizza rolled out with an $80 million ad campaign, including a Super Bowl commercial chock full of NYC celebs. It returned in 2019, ONLY in Hawaii

The craziest part of Hegseth's speech was when he randomly said, "You must be tense. Let's do a little stretching, shall we?" Then started shouting out directions for the generals to turn their heads.

I'm convinced the only reason DHS felt obligated to reprimand that ICE agent is because he didn't have a mask on and was identified on camera. I'll be surprised if they do anything about the elevator incident.

6/ The new incident happened just days after an ICE agent shoved Monica Moreta-Galarza to the ground at the same courthouse last Thursday. In a rare move, DHS had reprimanded the officer, calling his behaviour “unacceptable.” bsky.app/profile/till...

1/ I’m Till Eckert, a ProPublica reporter. For the past 2 weeks, I’ve been going to the same NY immigration courthouse.

Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away.

Everything is really scary right now but one thing that's deeply funny to me is after years of trying to shape Biden's cognitive decline into a scandal, Republicans put us back into the exact same situation with Trump

The last Madden that I played (20 or 21?) there was a glitch where the quarterback would do this on his own on like .2% of the plays

Washington Post. Don't forget that they fired journalists too, and they've taken their paper and turned it into a tool for billionaires.

I honestly think WaPo needs to be the next target.

And lets not forget that they said this about Bondi, giving her a green thumbs up.

It’s pretty insane that Lamar will spin out of a sack, roll backwards to his left, and when he chucks it everyone fully expects a completion. Just wild.

Travis Wolf @tbrianwolf.bsky.social · 18d

Really curious to see if this is an "aw shucks, we goofed" situation for Disney or if there was a actual negotiation and Kimmel returns with an apology and a donation to Turning Point. Won't feel good about it being a "win" until we know that for certain.

There's no 'white MLK' lol the concept of that is absurd

They want a white MLK so badly, but by giving Kirk so much exposure they risk people seeing what he actually said and believed

But also that means that the average American is totally cool with violating the civil rights of a group that they believe to be a whole fifth of the population

The thing about Trump is that he never really seems to believe any of this stuff. Like there are nuts in his admin who really do believe in these vast leftist conspiracies but any time Trump is asked he's like, "you never know, right?"

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 22d

MacCALLUM: Do you believe that there is a vast terrorist movement in the United States that's responsible for Charlie Kirk's killing and the attempts on your life?

TRUMP: You never know, do you. And we'll find out. In the meantime, we're gonna do a big thing with respect to antifa.

People need to stop randomly liking this post, "state owned social media" sounds so fucking terrifying in 2025 lmao

Travis Wolf @tbrianwolf.bsky.social · Nov 10

I've been arguing for a while for a social media app that is publicly owned. The issue with all of these apps is that they're wildly unprofitable but absurdly essential. People used Twitter for Amber Alerts and stuff and the owner is like how can I make this a bank

Travis Wolf @tbrianwolf.bsky.social · 23d

Didn't they do this last year too lol
