There's a war on for your mind.

Coachella is trying to wipe all of the footage of The Strokes protest set so I’m gonna post it here. The last images on the screen made me cry.

A Historian Spent 30 Years Interviewing Nazis. He Identified 12 Warning Signs of Fascism. All 12 Are Present in Trump's America Right Now. The evidence is not opinion. It is public record. And it demands your attention before November.

If the Ellison deals go through, Trump aligned billionaires will control TikTok, X, Facebook, CBS, CNN, Fox News, the Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Times, and the Washington Post. That is not a free press. That is a captured press.

Y'all are gonna lose your minds when you hear about horses.

Mamdani: "To be honest, I don't think too much about how Republicans portray me. The power of an ideology is judged in the worth of its delivery-to be told a city-run grocery store is implausible but $500 MILLION per day to kill people in Iran and Lebanon is necessary speaks to a broken politics." @TheTNHoller

The United States is destroying itself | Rebecca Solnit The daily news can’t adequately convey the administration’s sabotaging of our government, economy, alliances and environment

“The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled.”

Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."

Ex-model, arrested by Aventura police and deported, causes White House stir A Brazilian brought to the U.S. on an Epstein plane at age 16 lashes out at the Trumps, saying she was betrayed by her friend Melania.

So this is what prompted Melania to make that bizarre speech.

What’s incredible is that Ungaro’s tweets didn’t mention Epstein or claim Melania met Trump through Epstein, just that she had damaging info. So why did Melania leap to that the next day?

Before Trump started the war in Iran:

Iran was not building a nuclear weapon

The Strait of Hormuz was open

Thousands killed during the war were alive

New Epstein-linked revelations show how neo-Nazi operative Andrew Auernheimer aka “Weev” became a crucial link between Peter Thiel and the online far-right subcultures waging “memetic warfare” against their enemies.

AOC: Whether it’s people in the Epstein files still roaming free, or the president, a known rapist, continuing to occupy the White House, all of this has contributed to the normalization and the idea that incidents of harassment shouldn’t matter.

And I think today was an important turning point

So, Sharon Simmons from Nevada works Door Dash in DC. Umm, okay. Sure. Staged photo-ops like this are exactly what they've accused Dems of doing for years. And now they're doing it themselves.

In the brain, objects seen and imagined follow the same neural path New evidence finds that sight and imagination rely on the same neurons and use the same neural code.

It's like a clip from the movie Idiocracy but it's our actual reality.

“Google has created a misinformation crisis. Studies have shown that people tend to trust what AI tells them without question…Another experiment found that users still listened to AI when it gave them the wrong answer nearly 80% of the time—a grim trend the researchers dubbed “cognitive surrender.”

America's Real Criminal Element Is Lead The hidden villain behind violent crime, lower IQs, and the maybe even the ADHD epidemic.

Since everyone is talking about Generation Lead, here is Kevin Drum’s huge 2013 investigation that first exposed the connection to a broad audience www.motherjones.com/environment/...

Join us for this, our second Scholar-Advisor book talk of the year, featuring the inimitable @davidaustinwalsh.bsky.social in conversation with @tkennyfountain.bsky.social and hosted by @drewjakeprof.bsky.social !

I'm giving a book talk on UVA Grounds next Wednesday, April 15, at 2:00pm. If you happen to be around in Charlottesville, please come! There will be food!

‘Get them all’: Why are WA farmers blindsided by an ICE crackdown? Farmers are speaking out about immigration raids on farmworkers, saying they're startled by it and disappointed. Are we living in different information bubbles?

Farmers are realizing, oh, gosh, they're deporting our workers too!

Gosh! Golly fucking gee!

Chart from survey of confidence in Trump's foreign policy.

Surveys on political opinions should ask respondents where they get their news. We need to a richer picture of polarization & the roles far-right & conservative media play.

DNC rejects resolution condemning influence of pro-Israel Aipac lobby Panel’s decision a blow to progressives who are unhappy with group’s involvement in Democratic contests

Democratic Party leadership absolutely does not get it. Without progressives, they will lose every election. The country is burning down under fascism, and they do this! They really don't care.

We’re on strike today! Support our fight for a fair contract by NOT visiting the @propublica.org website or engaging with ProPublica stories today.

The author of this piece is a life long Republican who worked for Nancy Reagan and Jack Kemp. She went on to write for National Review. In no way shape and form should Democrats ever listen to this piece of shit.

No American is served by creating ever bigger media monopolies funded by ever more elusive foreign entities.

Pam Bondi should still be held accountable for failing to release & removing Epstein files. Todd Blanche, her replacement, was Trump's personal attorney, met with Maxwell, & defended the decision to move her to a minimum security prison. Until all files are released, this DOJ is breaking the law.

Pam Bondi still has to testify, under oath, in front of the Oversight Committee regarding the Epstein Files. This does not get her out of that bipartisan, lawful subpoena.

We will see her soon.

This is nuts. The only reason to do this is the cruelty and the racism. It will actively harm the U.S. economy. We're not talking about undocumented migrant workers here. These are legal PERMANENT residents.

It’s not a joke.

It’s a clear and frequently reinforced signal to the armed services that if you break regulations or laws you will be exonerated as long as your actions show fealty to Trump/MAGA.

How old lies find new believers online Long-debunked conspiracies don’t disappear—they evolve and thrive in the age of algorithms.
