An Easter message from the president which should really force the VP and the cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment.

online MAGA men are falling for the AI creation "Jessica Foster," who is a combination US Army adviser to Trump and foot fetish model. The character already has nearly a million Instagram followers.

James Talarico: Elon Musk is about to become the first trillionaire. He's about to make more money than every elementary school teacher in America combined. Do we really believe one man is worth more than every elementary school teacher?

Ugh.

world-altering decisions are being made by a cabal of gambling addicts hell bent on self enrichment no matter the cost to humanity, we should look into that.

March starts loud, impatient, and already late. Plan accordingly.

De-prioritizing billionaire run social media platforms (esp X) is essential! Dems need to lead this charge. Stop being complicit!

I’m so sorry. They haven’t soured on Trump even a little?

Well, @crockett.house.gov @jasmineforus.bsky.social I've always admired you, but this is not the way!

This video was uploaded on X but not on Bluesky. You are seeing it first here.

I assume it would do numbers had Zohran and Brad Lander took up @mtsw.bsky.social's initiative to deprioritize X, a suggestion that @aoc.bsky.social expressed enthusiasm in her AMA replies:

Pentagon Gives A.I. Company an Ultimatum

It should be a five alarm for all Americans that the Pentagon is going to the mat to force an AI company to let the Defense Department use its powerful technology to surveil Americans. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/24/u...

I am in fact saying that everyone who is providing content and engagement to that website is making a moral error, even your favs. Even mine!

But wait, they offer candy-grams to the ED staff so that they always feel appreciated!

Improving Emergency Department Flow Our ED Flow Assessment helps identify areas where efficiency can be improved and more revenue can be captured. With more than 4 million annual patient encounters, our experience allows us to drastically improve emergency department flow without requiring additional resources from the hospital. By implementing a performance-based business model, we inherently streamline operations, maximize resources, and reduce costs. We continually leverage our size and legal expertise to successfully negotiate with managed care providers in order maximize reimbursement.

Nobody who sees patients should be boasting about capturing more revenue without additional hospital resources, as if it’s a virtue. As if maximum financial extraction won’t worsen outcomes. As if it won’t cost some patients their lives.

And in the unlikely event they give the MVP to a Patriot anyway, it should be Gonzales!

Fun fact: The divorce scene in the Kid Rock show was an actual divorce showing a wife leaving her conservative husband.

PeaceHealth to replace local emergency room doctors with out-of-state ApolloMD For decades, PeaceHealth Oregon has contracted with the local group, Eugene Emergency Physicians, to staff its emergency departments. Come June, that contract will not be renewed. Instead, the hospital system has chosen Atlanta-based ApolloMD as its emergency medicine partner in Springfield, Florence and Cottage Grove.

In an email to medical staff and caregivers on Wednesday, PeaceHealth officials said they are “confident the new partnership is the right fit for the future in their emergency departments.”

At this point in internet history, anything not running on an open protocol is a waste of time. I’d recommend @skylight.social for a TikTok alternative

Agree. Liberals liked him for a half second, but once people had a chance to actually read his memoir, he became the object of mockery and critique. I remember being shocked that Ron Howard made a Netlix series out of his book because Vance was so widely despised.

Lest we forget:

On Sat night, as Minnesotans braved Arctic cold to honor Alex Pretti and demand that ICE/CBP leave their state...

...Tim Cook was at the White House for "friends and family" premiere of payola-based 'Melania' movie. Also Andy Jassy, Amazon CEO.

Bezos was at fashion show in Paris.

The last three times a new Pope was elected, the Seahawks have made the Super Bowl as the No. 1 seed.

DHS has shot 12 people during immigration enforcement operations since September:

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

i think this attitude — that all opposition is illegitimate and nothing we do can be questioned— is probably pervasive in the white house and helps explain why they keep making terrible political choices

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

Gov. Tim Walz: "Thank God we have video, because according to DHS, these seven heroic guys took an onslaught of a battalion against them or something. It's nonsense, people. It's nonsense and it is lies."

You can’t “we need our guns” your way to perpetuating school shootings while “he had a gun” your way to justifying public executions.

A nurse.

Someone who’s actually saved lives.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.

Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.

Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.
