Hakeem Jeffries deserves to be unemployed.

One day, if we are lucky, the erasure of American history will itself be remembered as a shameful chapter in American history

not surprising and yet still jarring to read ex-FBI agents describing how Kash Patel and Bongino reacted to Charlie Kirk's murder while running the agency. truly the content creator administration/podcast govt www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

We set out to determine how many images of women and girls Grok created during its nudifying spree. What we found was “industrial-scale abuse,” experts said. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/t...

Federal agents going door to door, forcing entry, and detaining people without judge-signed warrants is a grotesque abuse of power and violation of the 4th amendment. That’s not law enforcement. It’s a secret police force. tinyurl.com/2x8v6s6j

ICE is underwater with noncollege whites, god damn

Pouring more money into DHS while it operates with impunity and a blatant disregard for human life is unconscionable. You don’t fix abuse by funding it. You stop it by cutting off its funding and dismantling the institution that’s terrorizing communities. tinyurl.com/mr3em3k8

I wasn't sure what to expect from a group of Democratic state AGs, but I definitely was not expecting a long monologue about Ruby Ridge and the Boston Massacre www.theverge.com/policy/86588...

If confirmed, this really is a new low, where a state agency is altering image of real events with an intent to deceive the public.

From someone on the ground in Lewiston, Maine:

"we'll look weak and out of touch" ICE is underwater with non-college whites including 41% "strong disapprove" there's no polling to hide behind, if you're not willing to fight here it's because you don't want to, not because it's a losing fight

Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now. Prepare now.

And just like that, the US has left the World Health Organization. Link goes to the official announcement—lies pretending to justify a decision that will kill countless numbers—from people too stupid to even include a proper twittercard. www.hhs.gov/press-room/u...

Nekima Levy Armstrong is a hero—not a goddamn criminal.

There is *no* functioning Dem leadership at this point. Jeffries and Schumer need to go NOW if our nation is to have any chance.

if you’re posting in all caps about how you didn’t kidnap a child you’re losing and losing badly also every one of you is pond scum, you absolute stains on humanity

my scandals are unceasing

just thinking again about how MAGA’s attempt to suppress all criticism of Charlie Kirk created a backlash so intense that he is now probably the most abjectly Internet-defiled person in human history

Guys the people currently grabbing up power in the USA are part of a network that openly believes in "passive eugenics" so yes they are trying to kill everybody. They think the planet is overpopulated with "the wrong kinds of people"

Why is crime falling? We asked the worst and dumbest people in America to explain it www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/u...

Do you appreciate @nws.noaa.gov's posts on Bluesky? Did you know that this account is a pilot program that may or may not be continued and even expanded to NWS field offices? NWS is soliciting comments here! www.surveymonkey.com/r/PrototypeN... Press release: www.weather.gov/media/notifi...

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE PRIMARY TOM SUOZZI I WILL GIVE YOU A LOT OF MONEY

if he is a bitch, you must not convict

while we’re still talking about 2016, i just want people to know that everyone in my class tried to make our homecoming theme “harambe” but the administration overruled it

in case you didn’t click through, what she had the nerve to do was go to a football game that the school she is currently attending was playing in

Elon Musk shows up on stage at Davos, a place he has hated on from afar for years. After tepid applause, his interviewer, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, asks the crowd to clap again.

who called it deleting my account and not jerry nullification

Jesus, Allah, Buddha, why is Gmail giving me "Tab to improve, Esc to dismiss" AI prompts when I turned off all their awful "smart features" in Settings months ago? They are really trying to wear us down on this stuff. Anyone have ideas?

Kick all seven of these fuckers out of the party

pam bondi is a demon

Fun fact: when bluesky was invite-only, we got our invite from AOC

the destruction of local news has done more damage than just about anything else to our ability to process reality as a country and this is a shining example of why

how (if at all) can we support the minnesota general strike on friday from afar?

Shoutout to the adorable cashier at Trader Joe’s who saw me buying their unsweetened soy milk and said, “You know, that really does taste like soybeans”

this is why what’s happening in Minneapolis is both the most and least encouraging part of the second Trump admin to me least because what they’re doing is completely insane and there are three more years of this most because the way the community has responded is truly extraordinary

I would also note: X has deleted a handful of these images. But the vast majority of them remain live on X today.

Jim Jordan just started speaking and has already lied. (Said Smith's team sought "phone calls.") He wastes no time. A master of efficiency.

no matter how many times he's proven to be bullshitting, no matter how many people die because of what he did at DOGE, no matter how many nazi salutes he throws, no matter how many nonconsensual pictures Grok generates, "elon musk says thing" will apparently never stop being a headline

WATCH NOW: Jack Smith testifies before the House Judiciary Committee

Two things to remember about Jack Smith’s testimony: 1. The only people who question his objectivity are GOP politicians and members of the Trump-obeisant media. 2. No one has as complete a picture of the evidence as does Smith and his team. His critics, in fact, have usually willfully ignored it.

Hey Nancy? How about you talk to your boy you personally pushed to get elected in Texas who just decided to fund terrorists and child kidnappers. Why don’t you get on that first before you go after the people upholding the rule of law, you withered heap of insider trading.

every now and then I have to take a minute to sit and process what a petulant baby he is

reach for the stars

Kash has of course done a lot of damage as the head of the FBI but I was worried he would come in as a Miller-esque true believer laser focused on weaponizing the place and he's mostly just dismantled it largely through neglect because he is laser-focused on Being A Celebrity

hasn't aged well imo (sucked at the time)

Hi, for those of you unfamiliar with this sort of weather -if the power goes out, trying to heat your home with the clay pot + candle method is not a great idea, try personal warmth (ie blankets) and blocking and sealing drafty areas instead if you can

They never miss a chance to blame their victims

The Jack Smith hearing made me think about how much the fracturing of the media environment facilitated the spread of absolute horseshit. www.pbump.net/o/the-jack-s...

This is a very grim measure of how bad things are: Every year, some amazing federal public employees receive awards. This year's winners were not asked to speak. The organizers "wanted to protect them from being singled out by Trump administration cost-cutters." www.csmonitor.com/USA/Society/...

Welcome to the Clicktatorship: where the FBI Director spends his days planning out his social media posts

do not underestimate the power of spite donations

I never did get into TikTok and, well, don’t think I’m gonna start now

Darrell Issa claims that he and Jordan "saw wrongdoing" after 2020, so they voted against accepting electors from two states. But, of course, they didn't see any such wrongdoing, since there wasn't any.

"The rule of law is not self-executing." This, from Smith's testimony, is the central reason this hearing and his efforts are so important. It's a reminder that the law is not being executed faithfully or consistently at the moment.

Last week Michael Fanone said it was time for Americans to take up arms and defend their communities from ICE, now he tells Trey Nehls "Go fuck yourself" during a live congressional hearing 😂

Any vegetarian learns this within the first year of abstaining from meat. This article, while thorough, ignores the cultural element: Meat is seen as MANLY and vegetarianism as effeminate, and all of the rhetoric (outside from industry actors) is downstream from that.

The guys who side with ICE are unlikely to save the Titanic

Discworld QOTD, from Going Postal "You should promise to do the impossible, because sometimes the impossible was possible, if you could find the right way, and at least you could often extend the limits of the possible. And if you failed, well, it had been impossible."

CNN must be on some other internet i don't know about

they told him to pound sand and he whined and blustered and threw an aggrieved tantrum and it worked there’s a lesson here

lol and also lmao the problems they're going to have with juries are only going to get worse from here

So one of the things you have to do when running for office is fill out questionnaires for organizations you’re trying to earn support from. Quite pleased to report that one of my answers from the one I filled out tonight was, verbatim, “Fuck ICE.”

oh look a list of shithead Dems once again involves Henry Cuellar, who could possibly have predicted if only Dem leadership had put some muscle behind replacing him at some poi - *holds finger to ear* hold on I am getting some new information here

Someone with a San Jose Sharks logo for an avatar once DMed us at 3:21 am on a Saturday and said, “heres a new word for you Marrian WEBBER- fictionary - as in ur not a dictionary u a fictionary."

this is exactly where I’m at

the cube has arrived. lets see if this works

Vox populi, vox dei.

Donald Trump's "Board of Peace" is aligning the U.S. with global autocrats and flawed democracies. www.pbump.net/o/trump-is-u...

DHS funding bill passes: 220 yes / 207 no Seven Democrats voted yes. Do the math, and you’ll see why it matters that @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social chose not to whip the vote.

Reminiscent of how they removed mention of trans people at the Stonewall National Monument

"Ana" is pruning grapevines in Madera County. She earns 34 cents each plant and there are approximately 80 plants per row. On a good day workers complete four to five rows per day. Their workday that lasts from 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. #WeFeedYou

Hey @golden.house.gov, you know what "undermines public safety" and trust? You funding the secret police kidnapping, beating, and killing people based on their skin color, or for merely witnessing ICE's lawlessness.

Not beating the "ICE agents are otherwise unemployable idiots" rap

Meet Zander, a super-volunteer for the Kat For Illinois campaign! We have another frigid weekend coming up, but that won’t stop us from making an impact!

“Bovino then continued with: ‘He beat me up on the playground when I called his mother an ethnic slur, and he also told the teacher on me when I was trying to enjoy a delicious glue stick. We’re getting rid of the real monsters right now.’”

By the time this is over there’s going to be like $12bn a quarter of depreciation charges and a PP&E pile the size of Utah. I don’t think this kills Meta but I believe it begins its slow, painful collapse. You can’t run a business like this without killing the golden goose by getting greedy.

i'm feeling a little uneasy about F1 getting a best picture nomination for two reasons. first, a quick look at the grid suggests to me that this is just the 6th of what will ultimately be a 70-film franchise. second, i thought it was fairly contrived that the patrol boat just happened to be there

Just incredible that the Europeans put one over on President Deals. How could this have happened?

Heads up SoCal folks

This is so righteous. Acessible and translated flyers in 5 languages

folks I am not bullish on Talarico either but Jasmine Crockett is not going to run a serious Texas Senate campaign in a year when we could really use someone running a serious Texas Senate campaign

Federal agents arrested 3 activists in Minnesota, civil rights attorney Nekima Levy Armstrong, St. Paul school board member Chauntyll Allen, & content creator 'DaWokeFarmer' for protesting a church that has a pastor who's an ICE agent. There are still no charges filed on any of the detained.

I may have to join Threads just to heart this post.

Judge's refusal to approve charges against Don Lemon in connection with Minnesota protest reportedly ‘enraged’ Pam Bondi.

Suozzi's district used to be... George Santos' district (briefly!). Before Santos it was also Suozzi's but he "retired" to run a disastrously bad gubernatorial campaign, and as far as I can tell no one even in his own district likes him. He won by being less bad than the GOP candidate.
