🎩 Living in America, is exhausting

Hustle culture, is dead we are done

The juice, isn’t worth the squeeze

The game is rigged, so stop playing

We, need a national general strike! 🇺🇸

If we don’t do this now, then we have no future, it’s only going to get worse!

SHUT THIS WHOLE COUNTRY DOWN!

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.

We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

Blumenthal: "The judge's approval of a warrant is absolutely critical when they are entering your home without your consent. We revolved against the British because of this principle. The 4th Amendment, the right to be let alone, is a libertarian view."

Trump’s order to deploy Texas National Guard troops to Chicago is illegal, immoral, and must be stopped by the courts. ICE is already wreaking havoc in our communities. Let’s call this what it is: an invasion by out-of-state troops coming here only with the purpose of tormenting Chicagoans.

If you haven’t been paying attention to the EA takeover because you’re not a gamer, here’s why it should concern you anyway.

2 out of 3 people in the US play video games —and right-wingers are gearing up to control their content.

Their messaging, their propaganda. Coming to a console near you.

How Ordinary Americans Can Stop Trump’s Revenge Spree The Founders intended jury nullification to be a tool to resist tyranny.

“Now that President Donald Trump is perverting the Justice Department into an instrument of political persecution, jury nullification may be one of the only mechanisms that everyday Americans have to protect the rule of law,” Adam Serwer argues:

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.

Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

DHS Has Been Collecting US Citizens’ DNA for Years Newly released data shows Customs and Border Protection funneled the DNA of nearly 2,000 US citizens—some as young as 14—into an FBI crime database, raising alarms about oversight and legality.

With everyone's DNA on file, who needs social security numbers amiright?

The application for stay presented to THE CHIEF JUSTICE
and by him referred to the Court is granted. The July 17,
2025 order of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, No. 25–cv–909, ECF Doc. 52, is stayed.
The application is also treated as a petition for a writ of certiorari before judgment, and the petition is granted. The
parties are directed to brief and argue the following questions: (1) Whether the statutory removal protections for
members of the Federal Trade Commission violate the separation of powers and, if so, whether Humphrey’s Executor
v. United States, 295 U. S. 602 (1935), should be overruled.
(2) Whether a federal court may prevent a person’s removal
from public office, either through relief at equity or at law.
The Clerk is directed to establish a briefing schedule that
will allow the case to be argued in the December 2025 argument session. The stay shall terminate upon the sending
down of the judgment of this Court.

This incredibly broad second question suggests they might have something even more radical in mind than just overturning Humphrey's.

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

there's a weird feedback loop where the media's reaction to kirk's death pushes you to speak more ill of the dead than you otherwise would because it's the only reasonable response to the simpering praise they're heaping on him

The left isn’t “dancing on Charlie Kirk’s grave,” we’re just pointing out that, thanks to rhetoric like his, a lot of other graves exist.

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

Charlie Kirk woke up every day and made a conscious decision to be the Charlie Kirk we all saw. That’s the meanest thing I can think of to say about pretty much anyone, and it also happens to be completely true.

We can remember what he did, and we can remember who he did it to.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

BREAKING: In Chicago, Illinois—U.S. citizens protesting ICE were dragged into vans by masked federal agents with no badges and no warrants.

People screamed: “Who are you? Where are you taking them?”

This is authoritarian control in real time.
