Ruffalo: We got to get this dumb-ass, fool-ass, tired-ass, lame-ass, duck-ass out of office. We got to make him a lame duck. We have to stop his policies now. Another two years of this, and who knows what he’ll be doing? He’s calling to throw Democrats out of the country…

Tim Snyder: The term that I came up with… is superpower suicide. I just can’t see an example of a major country losing so much power so quickly as the United States under Trump. We’ve encouraged our enemies and we’ve made our allies not trust us.

Can they start soon? Preferably before the election. I don't want to see him win.

As Macklemore said “There is no neutral position between the oppressor and the oppressed." If you're silent in the face of atrocities, you're taking sides with the perpetrators.

You don't have to keep selling it, I was already voting blue. Democrats could investigate. Let's hope they actually do!

I could easily go through a workday without AI, if the tech companies would let me. I would prefer it, actually. Why does so much of what we do online get converted into an AI prompt we didn't ask for these days?

Are the older establishment Democrats more complacent because they don't recognize what's happening? Are they in some sort of denial about what Republicans have become?

This is why it's such nonsense for anyone to say that with UBI, people will lose meaning. First, jobs aren't any source of meaning for many people with jobs. Second, the jobs people can't say no to are in the way of a getting a lot of meaningful work done. And third, the rich seem to find meaning.

Honestly I wish UBI was a thing so badly because with the amount of volunteer jobs I have, I could probably put in 40 hours a week doing community work and be more valuable than I would standing behind the counter at a retail joint.

Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

[China makes moves to shore up Iran's economy, purchase their resources, and provide them logistical support and intelligence] Trump: Xi is the best. [Assigns U.S. enlisted to get on their hands and knees before Xi and clear dust out of his path]. Trump is so embarrassingly weak and pathetic.

You should consider taxing them while you're at it. The political engagement of these places of worship should negate their tax-exempt status.

This was the 28th time #SCOTUS has granted emergency relief to the Trump administration since 1/20/25. That matches the total number of grants during the entirety of the first Trump administration. And both of those totals dwarf the *four* grants of relief (two each) during the Bush & Obama admins.

Too little, too late, Donalds. I notice the Republican brand has grown so toxic that candidates are keeping their association with the Pedo Protection Party out of their campaign materials. Politicians who can't speak out against the damage this regime is doing are undeserving of holding office.

This is vital information and I just had this conversation with friends in US, but yes, it's also bleak and unfair and unnecessary. The US is a wealthy country and this is a diabolical political choice.

Nothing about UBI discourages work. It's a floor. It increases people's ability to choose what they do. It reduces survival stress. It enables people to spend more time with others. All of this increases well-being. All of this is what people born rich are born with. Where are the concerns for them?

From a population that should really know better. It is interesting that such results could come from a region so recently under soviet rule. Do the youth not listen to the stories and lessons of their elders? 🤔

Germany might want to review the election security. Russia and/or Musk may have found a way to manipulate the results. It's hard to believe that with Germany under increasing threat from Russia, a region that has a memory of life under soviet rule would vote to bring it back.

Luis Ochoa is 17. He was driving to file his Marine Corps enlistment paperwork in Alamo, Texas. ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him to the ground, and punched his face. He told them he was a citizen. The agent said: “I don’t give a damn. Your parents can’t help you now.” #Blues
