Why are current events reminding me of the Twilight Zone episode "It's a Good Life". Is it because all the adults are deathly afraid of little but all powerful Anthony, and kiss up to him so he doesn't take revenge on them? youtu.be/QxTMbIxEj-E

The clowns that are now running the SSA thought it was a good idea to spam me with this political propaganda. I'm pretty sure that this was sent to everyone who has an online account at the SSA. 🤬

Reported by someone local on FB. This should be a national story. I hope that the MSM picks up on this. #birdflu #H5N1

Trump’s vicious attack on President Zelenskyy is an attack on democracy. Zelenskyy has shown the world what heroism.Trump is a convicted pervert and felon. Trump and Putin are gangsters. We are now in a global fight to defend the democratic order. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRsf...

I suspected this was true, but confirmed it today after finding this 10 year old article. From now on, I think we should all refer to the Orange Turd simply as "Biff". I believe it would really, really, really get under his skin. www.theguardian.com/film/2015/oc...

It seems to me that Chief Justice Roberts has grown weary of being a "Get out of jail free" card for the Orange Turd. Maybe there is some hope that SCOTUS will be a check on DJT's excesses for the next four years.

Folks: please be diligent about not disseminating Ann Telnaes' cartoon in a way that she's not getting the clicks on it (until she says differently). Her IP matters now more than ever. Make it go viral but make sure she benefits. anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...

Reports say that the suspect who drove into the crowd of people killing 10 and injuring 30 in New Orleans' French Quarter is 42 year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar. He is an American citizen who was born and raised in Beaumont, Texas, a U.S. Army veteran, and a real estate agent based on this video on YT.

After Fox co-workers told media he was often drinking or hungover while at work, Pete Hegseth challenged people to find a single clip showing him drinking on the job. We accepted the challenge. meidasnews.com/news/bottoms...

So what's the message here? Is the MAGA Speaker stating that vigilante justice against a mentally ill Black man who killed no one is heroic but vigilante justice against a wealthy white CEO whose policies killed thousands is criminal????

Goliath squashes David when special interests can silence their critics with frivolous strategic lawsuits against public participation, or 'SLAPPs.' That's why @wyden.senate.gov, Congressman Kevin Kiley and I have introduced our bipartisan Free Speech Protection Act.

In Nazi Germany during the 1930s, thugs would go house to house to harass and intimidate people. Today, the thugs are on social media. Thankfully, Bluesky, unlike some other platforms, gives us the tools to keep them at bay.
