Trump is an intrusive thought in a meatsuit and we let it win.
One grim takeaway I have from 2024 is that you could've run hundreds of millions of dollars on ads saying Trump would tank the markets and our global standing and it wouldn't have made a difference, everyone was just in the mood to Touch The Stove.
It's so cool how we're reinventing early 19th century liberalism from first principles

Powell, showing more guts than almost any GOP legislators:

"The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Fed setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of the President."

The delicious orange-red color of this #Mycenaean sealstone almost distracts from its incredible engraved bull-leaping scene. The bull is realistically rendered, but the body of the leaper is elongated, shown in motion as he lets go of the bull's horns and prepares to land. 🏺 1/

More from Tehran and Shiraz today. Footage coming out has dropped sharply due to IRGC/Basij raids searching for Starlink terminals, and extreme jamming causing massive packet loss, making it nearly impossible to upload or send content.

Americans don't associate them with a sense of humor, but since everything in the world is upside down here's a good one from a German satire site...

On day 8 of our Administration, @governor.ny.gov and I announced the beginning of universal childcare in NYC. No longer will New Yorkers be forced to choose between starting a family and continuing to live in the city they love. This only happened because of you.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

Reports and videos show ICE agents asking American citizens whether they’ve “learned their lesson over the last few days” are deeply troubling. Language like this implies intent and raises serious questions about premeditation and mindset on the scene.

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE:

"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".

"Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

Four years ago today, I met a porcupine. If they’re high up in a tree they’re easy to miss because they look like a nest. Their tracks in the snow reflect their trundling gait and if the snow is deep you can see where their tail dragged 🌿

This is a really big deal.
NEW: These are ICE agents removing evidence from the shooter's home. They are not DOJ, they are Jonathan Ross's friends and coworkers, not DOJ.

This agent removing Ross's personal computer was reported yesterday Jan 9 for boxing in a volunteer and telling them "I'll dedicate my next arrest to you"

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

I hope a lot of white women are seeing all those MAGA men out there claiming that Renee Good deserved to be publicly executed simply because of the way she looked and sounded - and are thinking “wait a minute, she looked and sounded just like me.”

Fun fact #6, States have the power to enforce their traffic laws against private rental vehicles whose plates have been removed or altered.

A Hertz rental driven by an ICE agent is not a G.O.V. it's a private vehicle

Local governments can offer bonuses to tow truck drivers for enforcing this law.

Fun fact #5, while States cannot force, say, utility providers to deny utility services to federal facilities (intergovernmental immunity doctrine), States and localities *can* effectively deny NEW projects and permits by tying them up forever in zoning and land use permits (the Yucca Mtn strategy)
