I'll be curious to see how the DC press corps holds Trump, Vance, Johnson et al accountable for the bald-faced lies they've been spreading about the No Kings protests and protesters.

I'll also be curious to see how the press covers those same lies when they're rolled out ahead of the next protests.

Years ago there was a Twitter leak that disclosed actual countries and email address of many ppl's IDs.

To this day you can find MAGA accounts – that were originally started by posting cat pictures – praising Hitler and, if you trace their account ID, are actually run from Pakistan.

It's all an op

Just a reminder that this place is rotten with bad faith accounts trying openly to split apart groups, redirect discussions, and ruin any chance of creating solidarity 🥰

Sliwa on transportation: “I like to avoid yellow cabs. As you know I was shot in the back of a yellow cab in 1992 by the Gambinos.”

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

A.
Well, I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic.
When I

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

You know, to paraphrase @kenwhite.bsky.social , if you joke about some things, it’s kind of like ‘ironically’ fucking a goat.

Sure, you may say it’s for irony or performance art or to be provocative or whatever, but at the end of the day, you’re still balls deep in a goat.

JD Vance dismisses Young Republicans who in a group chat said "I love Hitler" and joked about slavery and rape as "a bunch of kids" who "told stupid jokes" and adds that "most of the stupid things I did when I was a teenager and young adult, they're not on the internet."
