Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta. Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

🐶Growing up too fast

The largest generation in U.S. history is in their 70s now. And Stephen Miller’s podcaster wife thinks it’s suspicious that there’s a huge surge in home health aides.

1991: The United States thinks it has decisively won the Cold War against Russia. 2025: The United States' foreign policy is being dictated by Russia.

it’s crazy how obvious it is that donald trump has been actively part of the epstein coverup for half a decade now and he’s just still the president

Loser Mike Johnson hopes we forgot about extending ACA tax credits while he was on Christmas vacation. Let’s make it very clear how wrong he is:

Every single time Trump has a meeting with Zelensky, Putin calls Trump the day before and Trump’s position in the Zelensky meeting then mirrors the Russian position. The talking points are the same, with all the same lies. It’s a simple playbook for Putin and it works every time.

very convenient that the rich ruling class techbros solution to income and wealth inequality will be solved by letting them accumulate even more wealth

Next time someone says they don’t have to apologize for being white anymore, ask them to tell about the most recent time they were forced to apologize for being white and who made them do it.

The President of the United States appears to be getting regular IV infusions, the public doesn’t know anything about it, & the DC media evidently doesn’t care. We are months into the mystery of Trump’s hands, the White House is lying, & I’ve seen a grand total of one serious news story about it.

Absolute Fing traitor

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

I am currently the 4th most-reposted account on BlueSky. What an incredible compliment, as I revere all (well, most) of you because you are so smart and funny. Thank you.

This is called "freedom" and it's pissing off the new Commissars who believe that artists must perform at the State's command

It’s truly amazing how Zelensky is able to see up close and personal what Putin is doing to his country and its people day after day with barbarity and cruelty, then stand next to Trump without losing it while he makes asinine statements expressing sympathy for the mass murderer.

“Russia wants Ukraine to succeed.” Donald J Trump, December 28, the year of our Lord 2025. Actual real quote from the dumbest man

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

In America, where irony is dead, a hotel chain uses a policy denying shelter to local people, for fear of accidentally housing homeless persons… To deny a reservation to the author of a much-lauded book on how American economic unfairness forces working people into homelessness.

Again,

I’ve had a lot of people reach out over the last few weeks and ask if Gabby and I are ok. I’m good, and Gabby’s even better. She’s the toughest person I know.

In my experience, the best way to help a country succeed is to not invade it.

An exceptionally stupid and contingent set of circumstances made Stephen Miller the most influential ideologue in the US. There is no future for the left or liberalism that does not take as a core mission ensuring he is punished for his crimes & no one as hateful as him is ever close to power again.

Trump's DOJ was monitoring all the movements of the Miami Herald reporter who was covering the Epstein case.

If you're going to drop into every post and reply "So what? Who's going to do something about it?", the answer is YOU. YOU are going to do something about it. YOU are the consequences. Stop waiting for someone else to save you.

I used to manage wine programs for movie theaters and I am in the extremely unique position to say with professional certainty that the answer here is a crisp Albariño.

Unlike Trump & Witkoff, most Americans aren’t seeking “amazing business opportunities” for US billionaires in Russia. We just want them to stop indiscriminately bombing civilians & end their barbarian war of aggression with their horde of convicts, rapists & foreign mercenaries.

So much love to all of my fellow radical left scum…

Trump sympathizes with how stressful it would be for Putin to have to stop killing people for a while because of how inconvenient it would be for him to resume it. This whole thing is a farce. A charade. Putin is playing Trump like the useful idiot that he is.

evangelicals might be the largest grifters to ever exist in human history lol

Millions of Americans remain at jobs they hate for one reason: the health insurance they receive. That’s absurd. Universal health care will give Americans the freedom to choose the work they want without worrying about health care coverage. Another reason for Medicare for All.

in your 20s, you'll come across someone who's wrong online. it's very important than you spend the next 40 years of your life learning and arguing about this topic online long after they've moved on, built a career, and raised a family.

Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

Still unreported, should be investigated: ICE shot Richard outside a mall. I visited mall security office. Guard said ICE and LAPD came in, used thumb drive to copy mall’s video footage, and THEN DELETED THE EVIDENCE from mall’s local drives. He showed me the missing timeline part saying “no data.”

look we're all making a big bet on AI! and if it pays off as big as we hope, well, it's going to make a handful of people super rich and you're going to lose your job but get to watch mickey mouse fuck geralt from the witcher. if it doesn't pay off well then you get to pay for the bailouts

Sarah Cooper is back on Trump and she absolutely nailed it 🔥

Friends — Here's one "big idea" for how we can start to fix the system in 2026. Let me know your thoughts. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

With all this talk of how to end Russias war against Ukraine, and a cease fire, keep this in mind: If Ukraine ceases firing, Ukraine will cease to exist. If Russia ceases firing. the war will cease to exist. Pretty clear

my parents have the kids so my wife and i are celebrating with a banana leaf full of filipino food

This is not Trump being stupid, tho Trump is a very stupid person. This is not Trump being played, tho Trump is one of the most easily manipulated people who’s ever lived. No, the truth is scarier. This is Trump working for & siding with Putin. This is Trump, the Russian asset.

Doesn't it strike you as strange that the people who shout long and loud that America is a Christian nation founded on Christian principles are the very people who don't want Christ's teachings of tolerance, pacifism, and generosity codified in law?

It’s not “patriotic” to bail out Argentina while Americans are struggling, to build a ballroom while cutting SNAP benefits, or to pad your own pockets while claiming “affordability” is a hoax.

Molly is hoping for 2026 to be really...really...EVIL.

This is a clear violation of the gag order! Tricia McLaughlin is not a private individual offering commentary, she is the Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs at the Department of Homeland Security and an official DHS spokesperson.

It would be far less time-consuming to count down the number of times he accidentally told the truth. shorturl.at/j6eU3

Peter Thiel says he’ll leave California if they pass a 1% wealth tax on billionaires for five years. So… how much would it take to make him leave the U.S.?

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator? This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

“Just one more thing, Ms Bondi… … If The Epstein Files are a hoax, why the redactions?”

Zuckerburg is paying $8B to settle a lawsuit by Facebook shareholders for failing in his oversight duties in the Cambridge Analytica crime. A reminder that $8B is only 3% of his net worth. Another reminder that “If the penalty for a crime is a fine, then that law only exists for the lower class.”

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

Ask yourself: If Donald Trump was a Russian asset, what would he be doing differently? If your answer is “nothing,” then ask yourself this: If the US President is a Russian asset, what should *I* be doing differently?

I love legs your honour

I’d like to believe that the horrific darkness of this past year is a necessary prelude to a brighter and saner future. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-a-year-of-reckoning

“You guys, Hitler wants to see Poland succeed”

Once again raising the question -- why is the president's son-in-law at this official event?

Really weird to see the United States Attorney General commenting on an active grand jury investigation—let alone referring to a potential subject of that investigation as a “bad actor.” justthenews.com/accountabili...

Excited to announce GOLLUM, an app that helps you focus on your most precious possession!

Dickless threat from dickless dick

There’s a reason the political right wants to keep people dumb.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

I understand the sentiment behind it but too many of y’all seemed way too eager to make clanker jokes in a way that seemed less about being anti AI and more about wanting to make jokes where the punchline is “this sounds like real slurs but about a fake thing” or “haha, it’s like old timey racism”

Sauron was not only evil, he got distracted and his defenses failed

Trump had Mike Johnson remove Turner as House Intel Chair because he was perceived as too sympathetic to Ukraine. Turner was upset at the time and called it out. But now he’s a completely broken and beaten man. bsky.app/profile/atru...

“Federal prosecutors said Sunday the man accused of planting pipe bombs in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 5, 2021, told investigators he felt compelled to "speak up" for people who believed the 2020 election was stolen…” Lies have consequences. www.foxnews.com/us/dc-pipe-b...

A nice thread in which an actual expert patiently explains why the Secretary of Health and Human Service is not simply a liar, but an especially stupid one.

Pelosi: "January 6 was really sad in itself. But the sorrow of it also springs from the fact that this president is trying to rewrite history."

It was reprehensible when people mocked condom usage at the height of the AIDS pandemic. It is just as depraved to mock those wearing masks to reduce the spread of airborne viruses today. Whenever someone takes any kind of step to protect public health, they should be applauded, not mocked.

enough stories portraying missingno as an eldritch horror. why not eldritch love. #art #pokemon #missingno

One way to quantify the GOP's attack on free and fair elections: My law firm is litigating 78 voting and election cases in 39 states. This is, by far, the largest caseload we have carried in a non-election year and close to our peak in 2024. The question is how many more can a small firm handle.

A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles. When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies. This is outrageous.

Yeah, this dum dum is talking about chicken pox. Anyway, it's very cool and awesome that he has so much cultural and political influence.

Two weeks ago I spent the whole day at the Museum of the Moving Image to listen to New Yorkers. This is what Liam shared with me.

The median American has $8,000 in savings in the bank. In other words, this is like giving the median American an opportunity to make a massive, scandalous crime go away for a fine of $240.

All credit to Zelenskyy for maintaining his composure and not tackling Trump right there…

Most underrated Biden admin mistake was bailing out Silicon Valley Bank. SVB bet big on low interest rates and lost. Rich tech VCs who put too many eggs in that basket generated a bank run, then called for govt money. Got their bailout, helped elect Trump, and now reaping rewards from corruption.

Do whatever you feel comes naturally.

"nearly half" is a really funny way to describe losing an election lol
