The fact that Thomas Massie lost a Republican primary because he wants pedophiles to face justice tells you everything you need to know about the state of the Republican party.

The New York Times reports that the Department of Homeland Security has sent Google, Meta, and other media corporations subpoenas for the names on accounts that criticize ICE enforcement. The department wants to identify Americans who oppose what it’s doing. I’ll save them time.

The fascists lamented that they lost the culture. Where many saw bigger, better, more, they saw replacement and reduced position. They thought they could use the state to force the culture into their small, sad, restricted vision, to return to a past that never really existed. They were wrong.

ICE agents killing people in the streets. The naked extortion of a sovereign state. The National Guard unleashed in American cities. The Justice Department weaponized to prosecute political opponents. The tyranny is on full display — and it's waking America up.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

America, in no logical way does your future belong to a 78 y.o. man who will not live to see it, but he’s destroying it anyhow. What sort of entitlement is that, and what sort of stupidity is it of us to allow it? This has got to end sooner rather than later.

As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

No number of pardons or lies will change what happened on January 6. Donald Trump can’t change history. It was domestic terrorism, it was treason, plain and simple.

Trump’s Inaugural address was ego driven, long on boasts, & short on detail. No outreach for help to Democrats or Congress. His rhetoric won’t make groceries, rent, or prescriptions more affordable. His tariff gimmick taxes American families. Delivering a speech is easy, getting results is not.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

After launching the effort to ban TikTok in 2020, Trump will now take credit for eventually saving it, and TikTok is going along with it

“Is it okay for a social media platform to be an echo chamber” back in the day we had websites and websites were generally focused on a single topic and if you were into that topic you would visit that website and if you weren’t into that topic you just didn’t go on that website and it was fine
