DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now."
ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."
Brett Meiselas: Erika Kirk showed immense strength speaking after her husband’s murder. But the event was hijacked—Miller echoed Goebbels, Tucker spread anti-Semitism, and Trump ranted about tariffs and invading U.S. cities. Instead of uniting us, they exploited tragedy to fuel hate and division.
Why am I not allowed to buy 2 boxes of Sudafed, but an 18-year-old can buy two AR-15s and 365 rounds of ammo on and no one bats an eye?
It is time for tougher gun laws to protect our children!
Today should have been Arman Momand’s first day back at school.
Instead, he’s detained at the Farmville Detention Center by ICE and faces deportation back to the Taliban-led country his family had to flee after his father assisted the U.S. military in Afghanistan.
This is full-on authoritarianism.

"House endorsements include an Iowa engineer, an Illinois mathematician, and a Minnesota doctor who are challenging Republican incumbents." People aren't taking Trump's war on science and research lying down. www.thebulwark.com/p/democratic...
I just can’t. This has hit me so hard, I can’t even explain how I’m feeling right now. I don’t know how to articulate the anger, rage, sadness, broken heartedness. The puncturing in my soul at how Rep. Collier has been treated. I can’t wrap my head around it. When I try, the pain is overwhelming.
When even red district voters are booing you off the mic, maybe don’t run for governor? Just a thought.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "God damnit. Enough. Democrats, stop being weak. Step up. These guys have been dominant in the narrative. They have been defining the terms of the debate. It's time to get off our damn heels, onto our front toes... It's time for us to all band together."

One day, the Smithsonian museum will display the Epstein files.
a screenshot with the words "Meta is also looking at downsizing the A.I. division overall" highlighted. The full screenshot reads: On Tuesday, Meta is expected to announce that it will split its A.I. division - which is known as Meta Superintelligence Labs - into four groups, two people with knowledge of the plans said. One will focus on A.I. research; one on a potentially powerful A.I. called "superintelligence"; another on products; and one on infrastructure such as data centers and other A.I. hardware, they said. The moves are aimed at better organizing Meta so it can develop A.I. products more quickly to compete with others, the people said. Some A.I. executives are expected to leave, the people said. Meta is also looking at downsizing the A.I. division overall — which could include eliminating roles or moving employees to other parts of the company — because it has grown to thousands of people in recent years, the people said. Discussions remain fluid and no final decisions have been made, they said.
"Meta is also looking at downsizing the A.I. division overall" is the key takeaway here: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/19/t...
Bankruptcies in America just surged to their highest levels since… the last time Donald Trump was president.
Seems to be a pattern.

Blumenthal: "My stomach turned when I heard the president of the United States characterize Vladimir Putin as his fabulously good friend. Vladimir Putin is a war criminal."
Pretty major collapse in Trump's approval among young people
Bill Barr—the AG when Epstein died—was in the hot seat today. But let me remind you: DOJ owes us the Epstein files beginning tomorrow. All of them. Client list included. (1/2)
"No one is fighting Trump except Newsom."
MILLIONS of people across the country, elected and not, are fighting Trump EVERY DAY, from feeding people to providing free healthcare to pro bono litigation to organizing.
What you mean is YOU aren't fighting Trump.
Posting isn't fighting.
Stand strong Rep. Collier.
WOW. @marcelias.bsky.social goes off on the failures of legacy media: "We have an absolute collapse and failure by the institutions that have promised us that democracy would not die in darkness, that in fact, they stand for the proposition that democracy will die in plain sight of daylight."
For folks worried about Newsom’s record, we are 3 years out from the General & no one is asking you to vote for him but slamming Trump’s with mockery works & I hope we are unified in taking him down. This is good strategy for where we are rn especially as he works to undermine the mid-terms.
Photo of armed customs and border patrol agents and cars on the plaza in front of the Japanese American National Museum in Little Tokyo.
We are outraged and deeply distressed that armed federal agents came onto our campus—making arrests on the very ground where, in 1942, Japanese American families were forced to board buses bound for concentration camps. It was a deliberate act of provocation and intimidation.
One doctor’s recommendation to deny a 43-year-woman coverage “contained errors on practically every aspect” of her condition, the Labor Department said in 2012.
United and other insurers continued to hire the doctor over the next decade.
