there is a government shutdown with no end in sight and it’s not even really the lead story rn because the president can’t stop invading American cities for no reason other than spite

Local cops are not on the side of Democratic politicians or under their actual control. People refuse to understand this too even though we've been making this point for decades.

I feel like it’s almost more infuriating to hear someone who’s ostensibly on “your side” say insane shit…and I have very much experienced both, lol

Y'all who keep lecturing protesters to "not give them an excuse" need to pause for a minute. Imagine yourself telling a DV victim, "Be sure not to mouth off or make any mistakes so he won't hit you. Don't give him an excuse! It's what he wants!" That's what you fools sound like.

It's not just that they're going to strike down a law against conversion therapy, it's that they're going to do it on behalf of made-up claims from a straw plaintiff who can't honestly show the law affected her at all

I think the whole newsroom should go high school mean girl bully on her ass

God I can’t wait to read every catty and petty leak that comes out of CBS about Bari Weiss lol

NO this is so scary!!! 😭 Let’s hope she’s just chilling and thinking about how cool it is to not bite people….

I’m glad this has happened to other people, bc what do you mean the spiders I’ve been letting chill in corners of my home for the last 4 years are brown recluses???

I've been a journalist for over 20 years, investigating cops and courts that entire time.

This, on every level. Cops lie a lot. Cops are frequently incompetent. Never, ever, ever take what they say at face value.

Welcome to my inaugural “Times I have been scared by my own Halloween decorations” count! Today’s entry is this spooky guy:

perhaps the biggest story TFPever ran was a catastrophically shoddy argument that George Floyd ackshully died of an overdose. When confronted with irrefutable evidence that the piece was simply wrong, Weiss didn’t take it down, she asked her critic, @radleybalko.bsky.social, to come on a podcast.

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.

Remember when these guys ran a completely fabricated story about trans kids sourced to a single bigot who worked at St Louis Children’s Hospital and it got so much traction that they ended a bunch of programs for trans kids because of all the bomb threats

Installing someone like Bari Weiss as the head of a major news organization isn’t even about profit or longevity. In effect it’s about continuing to shrink the traditional news industry smaller and smaller and weaker and weaker and less and less journalism based until it ceases to exist

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

Please amplify this demand. We need y'all. I was there. We were not in the road. ICE simply let loose on us to film themselves brutalizing and arresting protesters—and state police assisted them. They brought charges against scattered people to create a pretext for this inexcusable violence.

All charges brought against protesters at Broadview today must be dropped. When cops and agents attack crowds without provocation, they make shit up to justify their attacks (in his case, an attack waged on a cooperative crowd to produce fascist social media content). These charges must be dropped.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

If you're interested in Paramount, CBS News, the Free Press, or the right-wing takeover of the media, please help spread this around and let's see if we can find out anything interesting :-)

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Watch this. This is what this criminal administration wants to do to all of us.
