It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

Ask every Republican if they denounce and condemn Charlie Kirk for his hateful statements. They're doing it for Hasan Piker and every Democrat who has been photographed with him. The media won't. Why is that?

Gas prices are up 24.6% from a year ago and still significantly higher than they were before the Iran War. Meanwhile, the world's 8 biggest oil companies have made a $93B profit windfall in just the last three months. Big Oil is raking it in as the world burns — and we're paying for it.

Newsom is a shameless weathervane and will feint hard toward whatever is gaining traction while tirelessly serving the interests of capital. You cannot trust this feckless creep, but he’s a priceless indicator of where momentum is within the Democratic Party.

One of my regrets from my teenage years was not getting to enough shows. Now that the kids are older and I have less obligations, I've correcting this regret. Last night was #TheSaddestLandscape record release party at @thesinclair.bsky.social. Four amazing bands

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

After ICE deported Wendy Hernandez Reyes, it turned her 3-year-old son Orlin over to her sister’s estranged partner, who tortured Orlin and beat him to death. I can’t say what I think should happen to those responsible without violating this website’s TOS. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
Because the service had been arranged last minute, the funeral home on a busy street in Atlanta could only offer them one hour.
Orlin wore a long-sleeved shirt and a tan vest with a striped bow tie and matching pants.
The clothes concealed his injuries. A new teddy bear was tucked beside him.
Embroidered into the satin lining of his casket was "Principito," or "Little Prince."
His full name was embossed on the coffin:
Orlin Josue Hernandez Reyes.
McCaffrey and Hernandez's sister had to hold Hernandez up as she walked trembling toward her son. Once she regained the strength to stand, she stood over him and stroked his face and chest.
"I never wanted to leave you," she whispered repeatedly. "I wanted to bring you with me.
My son."

It literally does not matter if we Jews are Indigenous to Occupied Palestine or not, because (a) multiple people can be indigenous to the same place, so indigeneity is not exclusivity, and (b) there's no "but we're from there" exceptions to the rule that apartheid and genocide are evil.
