Film things. BE LOUD!
Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment:

"To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

I usually avoid dunking on NYT because it would turn into my full time job but I can’t let this pass. You know this is false. You know you are legitimizing fascism. You know more children will die because of this. I hope you are still able to feel shame because this is fucking shameful.
NEW: The F.D.A. announced in an internal memo that 10 children died "because of" the Covid shot. Other experts want to see proof.

“This is a profound revelation,” Dr. Prasad's memo said. “For the first time, the U.S. F.D.A. will acknowledge that Covid-19 vaccines have killed American children.”

Don't tell me that Louis CK was never funny.

Louis CK was absolutely funny before his controversy and it's remarkable that after being backed into a corner, he went all in on unfunny racist and transphobic jokes.

It's FASCINATING how he stopped being funny overnight.

in a reasonable world the Trump admin would be catching enormous amounts of shit for their decision to deploy the national guard now that this has happened, rather than the media helping manufacture consent for them ending all refugee programs

I am not holding my breath
The Trump DOJ played down the risk of deploying the National Guard to DC, despite warnings, and now one of them is dead. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Beyond all this, Monica Lewinski has turned the shitstorm that comes with being a public relations punching bag for the world's most powerful man into a platform from which she has supported and uplifted countless other women.

Monica Lewinski is a hero, and everyone needs to get off her lawn.
Monica Lewinski went through Hell because of Bill Clinton and she was 21 when she started working for him.

Please leave that poor woman be in all the funning. She was destroyed by the public and he kept on keeping on as the president.

But her emails.
Neither title means as much as it used to.
Marjorie Taylor Greene says Trump is lying about her interactions with him — and posted their text exchanges today about the Epstein files.

A sitting member of Congress just posted her messages with the president of the United States.

I think it's the "saving up for braces" part of this story that adds a whole new level of ick. Like... that's a kid, man

I'm thinking today of all my fellow veterans but especially the more than 5,000 trans service members and their families who were kicked out of the military this year despite being highly qualified and serving honorably. This injustice will be a stain on our nation's history.

People understand that the Democrats can’t stop every bad thing from happening. But they’re also scared and angry and want leaders who will stand up and fight with everything they’ve got. That’s the bare minimum we deserve.

Pregnant women were found to have a 37% higher firearm homicide rate than women who weren’t pregnant, and more than two-thirds of pregnancy-associated homicides involved firearms.
The presence of a firearm is known to be a key risk factor of intimate partner homicide.

Homicide is the No. 1 way pregnant women die, research has showed, but a new study finds that they are even more vulnerable than other women of childbearing age when there’s a gun involved. https://cnn.it/49M5XLr

Take it away from all members at this point.
We should start by taking healthcare away from Republican members of Congress, since they feel it’s a “fake economy” anyway
Comer: "This is a fake economy. You can't have 1/3 of America receiving some type of free government healthcare and then have another 1/3 that's getting a subsidized rate. That falls on the final 1/3 that's having to pay increased premiums."
