Hell of a thought experiment to imagine how things would be shaping up under such a scenario…

Republicans, after 15 years of promises, FINALLY released their Obamacare replacement (Yes, this is real). #ChickensForCheckups

It's not about the drugs -- never was. It's a distraction, coupled with a healthy serving of red meat for the MAGA base. (S)

They get rich. You get screwed. The cost of corruption.

I knew Trump chose mortgage fraud to go after his enemies with phony charges of because it's a crime he's quite familiar with. He probably thinks everyone does it. And when @propublica.org called him to ask him about it, he hung up on them. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Ok well it’s been so fun and thank you all for hanging out I have to go and clean my kitchen and get ready to take my Hubs to Dr Appt tomorrow in PDX It’s 100 miles so I will be gone all day Take good care of you, Friend Love, Luna 💕

Minutes ago today the Trump regime abruptly cancelled citizenship ceremonies for several immigrants in Boston. THEY CANCELLED CITIZENSHIP CEREMONIES. These immigrants followed every rule & did everything right—Trump banned them anyway. All are from Black & brown majority nations. This Is Fascism.

The only surefire way to stop oligarchs buying up the things we love is to drop those things the moment oligarchs buy them & that requires changing habits and massive self-discipline. It means going to alternatives that might not be quite as good or convenient. It’s really hard. But there it is.

You can't make this up. Wanted on whole other set of corruption charges. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/w...

Fascinating. How will Trump punish Honduras now?

Do they have Spaces on BSky?

This is what GOOD GRIEF looks like.

Listen to the story of this Marine Corps Veteran. He says he feels betrayed after ICE handcuffed his wife during her final green card interview. She was following the lawful process that spouses of U.S. service members have used for decades.

How far back do you suppose he wants to go?

David Higgins is right. Misinformation under the guise of science is dangerous, and prevents parents and patients from making informed decisions to keep themselves and their families safe. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

#MomSky The decision when or if to have a child is one of the most important anyone can make. This is a decision for families to make along with their doctors, without political interference. #AbortionIsHealthcare

If the Affordable Care Act (ACA) tax credits expire, millions will face higher costs or lose coverage entirely. Tell your lawmakers to bring a bill to the floor to extend these important tax credits! actionnetwork.org/letters/aca-...

@reptimkennedy.bsky.social is right. The Big Ugly Bill already forced hospitals & healthcare facilities to make deep cuts to care. The Trump administration's plans to deprofessionalize healthcare degrees will lead to more short staffing - undermining care even more. www.c-span.org/clip/public-...

Taking away professional degree designation from healthcare workers, educators & public employees, could make college more expensive & worker shortages worse. Tell Congress to stop the disrespect of our workers! actionnetwork.org/letters/dont... @AFT.org

Whether the Golden State @warriorsofficial.bsky.social make it back to the NBA finals again is up in the air - but this is a team with 7 guys in the 6'1" to 6'4" heights range who are keeping this team competitive. As a 6'2" guy myself, I love it. Especially this 29 yo self-named motherf**ker!

From my after work, jet-lag wander’s last night…

ICYMI I talked with Dasha Burns last week about why we need to work together to strengthen—not abandon—public education and help prepare all of our kids for a bright future. Watch our conversation here ⬇️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=13yV...

"Mohammad said he wanted my help with a plan. Part one of it: revenge. He wanted to leak information about Iranian intelligence operations in order to hurt and humiliate Iran’s leaders, who had profoundly upset him, though he didn’t tell me how."

I do not understand how any Jew could support MAGA. The danger is so obvious.

Both my kids made honor roll this term. I know this is an arbitrary marker of success that is inflected with all sorts of capitalist nonsense. I am also really proud of how hard they have worked despite struggles and challenges that aren’t public. Both are true at once.

The internet never fails 😂 Don’t miss MEME WARS!!!

Dear MAGA Jews: Do you see the slippery slope?

Such an amazing place. Especially at Christmas. Just the best!

"The entirety of MAGA has embraced the Nazi concept of remigration, which refers to the ethnic cleansing of the US and Europe of all brown, Asian, and Black people." They want a melanin free US, where white Christian MAGAs are in the highest (or 2nd highest, after Trump and the billionaires) caste.

‪So you’re giving money to some Americans from the taxes you’re forcing all Americans pay to help them pay for the additional taxes that you’re making them pay?

Also, fuck you Jake Tapper.

The two things Candace wants most to be are the victim and the center of attention. Truth and facts are irrelevant in the pursuit of these ends.

⭐BREAKING: Secret Service Agents intercepted a suspicious package addressed to Donald Trump. Reportedly, it contained copies of the U.S. Constitution and Geneva Conventions.

🚨Trump’s Ego CRUMBLES as the Internet TORCHES Him If Trump wanted attention he got it but not the kind he likes. This episode drags his fantasies into daylight and they shrivel fast. HIT PLAY NOW: youtu.be/oJCbAKT9VUs?...

This is the truth many folks don’t want to confront about commentary. Glad to hear it spoken by another commentator.

Meme Monday😂 Now with 100% less civil rights 🚨WATCH🚨

I want to thank everyone who takes the time to post the good work they are doing to help others. I am finding that this app (and maybe my commentary job) is actually adversely impacting my health, because of all the doomerism and all the bad shit going down that is my nonstop TL.

Who’s ready for some after Dinner Convo?

Blue state governors — hit me up. I got an idea.

The tie and jacket say “formal press conference,” but the caption says “after-hours pay-per-view event you pretend not to know about.”

Ain’t wrong This one is a banger, too: “So we made a thoroughfare for freedom and her train, Sixty miles in latitude, three hundred to the main; Treason fled before us, for resistance was in vain While we were marching through Georgia.”

Speaking of the Widow Kirk Why are your children’s name’s now in the Public Sphere? Way to honor your Husband’s wishes

I seriously love to read Books #BookSky

In case he’s reading this, let me explain “affordability” to Trump: shit is really expensive if you’re not receiving millions in bribes every fucking day

Interesting article explaining why the author believes Trump has Frontotemporal dementia, rather than just Alzheimer's. It fits the symptoms.

Lets not lose sight that republicans want to take away Healthcare My latest. open.substack.com/pub/harrydun...

“As law professor Michael Dorf noted in April, when thirty-five law professors were asked whether ‘Trump is a lawless authoritarian,’ only [Harvard Law Professor] Adrian Vermeule [a Catholic “integralist”] said ‘no.’” 9/6/25 … 1/

Homemade Chicken Pot Pie It’s only my second one so be kind ha ha

A GOP group hired people from across the country to go to Utah and gather signatures for a ballot referendum to repeal the state's anti-gerrymandering law. Now many are coming forward to say they are ill-treated, not getting paid, & reduced to "living in their cars." www.rawstory.com/utah-gop-267...

Growing up, I rarely saw Black candidates running statewide for Gov or Senate. Today from SC to SD, from MI to NV, from MD to TX—we’re watching Black leaders step forward in big races, ready to serve.

The laughing stock of the world... (S)

Before the ink could even dry on my post yesterday, Trump has viciously insulted yet another female reporters. Thankfully, lordy there are tapes! open.substack.com/pub/theweekl...

This is a Lemon Meringue Pie (specifically a deconstructed or modern/plated version of it). The tall, perfectly spiraled, torched meringue on top, the visible lemon curd/cream layer underneath, and the crumbly base (likely shortcrust or sable pastry)

So they were torturing Immigrants at Alligator Whatever Color me not surprised Don’t forget what happened at Abu what? Weren’t those Soldiers prosecuted?

“Moral & intellectual descent is inherent in a political project that sets out to…reject the inclusive egalitarianism of modern America, find enemies to demonize, & heroize a leader who defiles common decency. Such a movement might begin w/ Plato, but it will inevitably lead to Nick Fuentes.” Gift:

@urocklive1.bsky.social Hey that was very nice of you today 💕

It’s time to stop saying that we need to understand these people. We do understand them. We understand that they have dug in their heels so deeply, they will not be moved by anything: not facts or data or truth or their own eyes. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/we-cant-ch...

USA vs other developed countries: Healthcare expenditure vs. Life expectancy. We deserve better, and the answer is NOT just throwing in more money!

How come "E" was the only letter to get what he asked Santa for? youtube.com/shorts/XYS5r...

Texas Democratic Primary is how elections should be. We WANT robust primaries to activate the base & test our nominee for the general. It's how we win general elections Establishment Dems scream "no kings" when talking about Trump, then pre-decide the Dem nominee. Nonsense. May the best Texan win✊🏽

Jasmine Crockett didn’t just launch a #Senate run — she lit a match under Trump’s fragile ego. The ad is sharp, fearless, and pure Texas energy. If the GOP wants to play insult politics, she’s showing up bilingual in that language. Texas hasn’t felt this electric in years. Sen. Crocket? Yeah!

Republicans had 15+ years to come up with a decent healthcare plan. It’s not coming. Don’t believe them.

Trump shreds his own on-camera quip from five days back, brands it fiction, then knifes the reporter for the echo. Like a shadow puppeteer snipping strings from his mirror image. #Trump

Do we have an "immigration crisis?" Or did we create an "emigration" crisis? Great observations from @extremearturo.bsky.social! youtube.com/shorts/4R2Kw...

Sudan's air force plays aerial lottery with unguided bombs on crowded markets and schools, cashing in 1,700 civilian deaths like glitchy slot wins in a rigged casino, per fresh report. #WarCrimes #Sudan

Trump's DOJ vacuuming up voter rolls like a digital black hole swallowing SSNs and voting histories to forge his purge empire. States bending over, feeding the beast their citizens' secrets. #VoterSuppression

South Africa's prez slices through Trump's baseless whine-fest on Afrikaner "persecution," calling it a sovereignty-sabotaging echo of apartheid's ghost, amplified by billionaires peddling victimhood myths for supremacy points. #WhiteSupremacy #SouthAfrica

Protesters packed the Indiana Statehouse Monday to fight against Republican plans to redraw the state’s congressional maps to give their party an extra advantage and eliminate the state’s two Democratic seats. Loud chants of “Stop the steal” filled the statehouse . newrepublic.com/post/204141/...

Politicians peddle lethality like it's a glitch-free app update, ignoring how it glitches troops into war crime mode during drug boat chases. Vet wisdom: Executions stay felonies, even when brass winks. #WarCrimes

"Saris ruled in favor of a coalition of state attorneys general from 17 states and Washington, D.C., led by New York Attorney General Letitia James, that challenged Trump’s Day One order that paused leasing and permitting for wind energy projects."
