"A drug addled Nazi billionaire is looting Fort Knox" would make a fun Bond movie, slightly less fun as an accurate description of reality

On the night that Putin invaded Ukraine, what was Tulsi Gabbard doing?

Spending her energy blaming NATO and the U.S. for what Putin did.

Tulsi Gabbard is not qualified to lead America’s Intelligence Community.

Why wouldn’t drug tests for members of congress be appropriate?

I mean, wtf are we even doing??

if you don't love me at my worst then you don't deserve me at my worst all i have is my worst sorry

Want to know what evil is? It's having $400 billion—and being projected to earn $600 billion more over the next 4 years—and knowing that you could awaken every morning for a month and point to a country and say I will end all hunger THERE without denting your lifestyle at all and instead you do this

Jeff Stein & @JStein WaPo A federal worker sent me audio of a call that HR did today with staff about "deferred resignation" agreements offered by DOGE ...

HR official: Yes... as the agreement is outlined that is absolutely correct 11:40 AM • 2/5/25 • 168K Views

If you work for the federal government and are tempted to take Musk’s “buyout” offer please know that you’re never going to see that money.

They say pandas are the dumbest animals in the world, but I bet they never listen to sad music when they’re sad so they can be even more sad.

Just once during a crisis I'd like to be able to answer a work email like "hey man, I can't answer that, do you see what the fuck is going on??" Just once

Absolutely. Grind it to a halt.

FBI Uncovers Al-Qaeda Plot To Just Sit Back And Enjoy Collapse Of United States

Palestinians knew what to do to stop the pain of chemical attacks by police because they’ve been organizing against imperialism longer than many of us have been alive. They are often a testing ground for the brutality Black people face here in the U.S.

It was also upsetting during the election to hear uninformed people who had never criticized Israel/Bibi/Biden previously suddenly using “Gaza” for the first time to justify opposing KH.

Politicians often frame #tariffs like those Trump proposed as punishment for other countries, but they hit Americans hardest—raising grocery bills and disrupting businesses. An economics professor explains: https://buff.ly/3Q3y0Lm (Bedassa Tadesse, University of Minnesota Duluth)

Noodles + butter + Parmesan + black pepper 🫠

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Yuuuuuup

If you told me that the sole purpose of this administration was to cause the country to collapse I would be on board with that explanation and have no evidence to offer to the contrary

Everyone should be aware of the line that has been crossed in the Trump trans military EO.

It's a big step towards very bad things.

I will not give into the lies. I will not give into the fear. Repeat it.

I spoke to a talented junior scientist who just got a good faculty job offer in the US and they told me “well I wouldn’t move to 1930s Germany either” so that’s how that’s going
