Given that Trump's favorite White House spot in troubled times, the bunker, is in the currently pummeled East Wing, I wonder if the part of the ballroom we're not hearing about is beneath it will be a vastly expanded safe space for shit bombing autocrats to hide in.
This is the way.
This is the genius of the Portland protests - they make the claims of lawlessness look not just wrong, but comical
This is a professor at Rutgers who teaches a class on the history of anti-fascism. He also teaches about human rights. He has received multiple death threats and been doxed. He is relocating to Europe for his safety. This is where we are in the US now. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Solidarity with @mark-bray.bsky.social, a fantastic, thoughtful, and generous scholar whose work about antifa is so important in this moment.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.
We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’
The situation in Nepal is incredible. The government tried to ban social media last week which led to violent protests and the prime minister ousted.
Gen Z protesters then met in a 100K strong Discord chat where they elected ex-chief justice Sushila Karki as the interim prime minister.
Must be nice to not have oligarchs on your Supreme Court.
Oh, you can do that?!
Thinking about the times Dems refused to do this. Wouldn't be sporting, or whatever they said at the time.
Once again, whatever the GOP does is seen as the norm and acceptable, and anything Dems do is seen as a transgressive overreach.
Serious question:
Did he have a stroke?
The conversation we’re not ready to have yet is that having empathy for a white supremacist is part of what upholds white supremacy.
And by that measure alone, it fails to be empathy at all.
I know most Americans don't follow public health/MAHA news if they're not in the field, so in case you didn't read yesterday's MAHA Commission strategy report, you should know that your tax dollars are going to fund research on "electromagnetic radiation" (read: wifi and 5G) as causes of disease 🫠🙃😱
He pardoned a bunch of people that committed political violence
A wild thing for the literal president, who uses the military as his plaything against his enemies, to say in a special address to the nation from behind the resolute desk, when a motive is not even known
Two Democratic legislators were shot, along with their spouses.
Even their dog was shot.
One had to dive on top of their child to protect them.
Trump didn’t attend the funeral. There was no widespread condemnation of political violence.
The culture must change and gun control is long overdue
Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."
Violence is not the cost of liberty or a free society. We don’t need to live like this. It’s the fucking guns.
The expectation, from the complicit mainstream media, that every single person on social media hold themselves to a HIGHER standard of respect than the freaking PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES will never cease to amaze me.
John Deere laying off workers. Pepsi hiking prices. Sony raising PS5 costs. Electric bills up 10%. Welcome to the Trump economy. All going really well, right?
A voice that weaponized scripture has gone quiet.
Dr. James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, Family Research Council, & Family Policy Alliance, has died today at the age of 89.
May the thousands of children and those within the LGBTQ community that suffered find some sparks of peace today.
Here's some background on all the misinformation about COVID, vaccines, and public health that Vinay Prasad, the new head of FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation & Research, has spread:
Vinay Prasad said that COVID pandemic public health measures under Biden were as bad as Nazi Germany. He is now taking a job that he is unqualified for working for an actual fascist regime.
Another unqualified, meritless appointee. CBER oversees vaccine regulations. Now why would they put an antivaxx crank with no relevant experience in charge of that??
Vinay Prasad tapped to run FDA center that regulates vaccines, gene therapies Fierce agency critic replaces Peter Marks, who was forced out by RFK Jr.
This is bad news. Vinay Prasad has consistently spread misinformation about COVID and vaccines. Dangerously he will now significant power to regulate vaccines and gene therapies.
what a delightfully charming oopsie from the septuagenarian with the nuclear codes 👍👍

By invoking a national economic emergency under IEEPA, Trump can now:
- deploy the military domestically

Pay attention.
It’s not just about tariffs.

So: Russia flatly rejected one Trump envoy (Kellogg), made the next one (Witkoff) wait for eight hours, rejected the ceasefire, and instructed Trump that his job is to give Russia what it wants. That’s what Trump means by "respect" I guess.
