Why is the House not holding Bondi in contempt? Why is Oversight not holding Epstein hearings? Why is Oversight not doing more in this case?

Good Question! (1/3)

And to the government.

Montana — yes, deep red Montana — has a plan to effectively neuter Citizens United.

No Supreme Court ruling or constitutional amendment needed.

Here's how it works. https://youtu.be/p1fPbGHe3xE?si=QZRQImV8KYD5Y90r

Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.

"The whole point was supposed to be regime change; we've gone from Khamenei to Khamenei... At home, we've had 13 service members die, 400 wounded, it's cost tens of billions that should've gone to domestic priorities, the cost of gas is surging. Any way you cut this, unmitigated disaster."

1. Where is there any proof they were close to having eleven nuclear weapons?

2. Trump ripped up the agreement.

I wish it could be so. It's worth a try, but Repubs don't have the cojones, no matter what they say in private. Shitzler is spending as much money as he can, knowing that if the good guys take power, we won't have the money to reinstate programs he's chopped or to extend benefits that help people.

The President of the United States is a war criminal.

Fact, not opinion.

the top of the statue, where the person at the top of the slope has his hand outstretched so the viewer can "help" pull him up

in 2016 a group of strangers in Kazakhstan saved a dog from drowning by forming a human chain to reach him. they just unveiled a statue commemorating the event and I'm genuinely about to start sobbing

Rachel Maddow reacts to Robert Mueller’s passing YouTube video by MS NOW

At 13:00 @maddow.bsky.social is asked about media coverage of the Mueller report. My paraphrase of her reply: We should not have given equal weight to Bill Barr's smoke screen tactics and Robert Mueller's old-school, fact-based, court-tested report... but we did. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQdD...

The Deadly Danger of Careless People Now they want $200 billion more for their reckless adventures

“…serving the well-being of everyday Americans is of little interest to these guys—not when they can spend our tax dollars blowing up people and stuff in a war of choice without justification, authorization or public support.”

Pete Hegseth’s briefing on the war in Iran turns into a farce: he yells at the media, demands thanks to Trump for this disaster, and frightens kids with tales of nuclear war. A perfect display of a runaway ego, more pathetic than dangerous.

Middle East crisis live: Israeli officials push back on US claim that Trump knew nothing about gasfield attack Three Israeli officials tell Reuters that the US actually helped coordinate Israel’s attack on Iran’s South Pars gasfield

Nothing Donald Trump says can be trusted. Nothing Donald Trump promises can be trusted. It's dereliction of duty to assume otherwise. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Turn off your TV

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.

Vile

DURBIN: Is DHS required to follow federal court orders?

NOEM: Yes sir, and we do

DURBIN: How do you explain that your agency has repeatedly violated them, as your own administration has admitted?

NOEM: We follow them when they apply


DURBIN: I'm sorry

@librariesftp.bsky.social is currently running our 3rd cohort for people who want to run for or seek appointment to their library boards. In just the past few years, we've seen interest ebb and flow in terms of these positions. Leftists should be focused on library governance. Seriously.

A little too late

Every single Republican president in my lifetime has crashed the economy. Trump is the first to do it twice.

Voucher supporters say Empowerment Scholarship fraud is 1%. New records peg misspending closer to 20%. 12News obtained Education Department records showing that one in five ESA purchases—such as cellphones, TVs, and diamond rings—were on the "unallowable" list.

Holy crap. New investigative reporting out of Arizona finds voucher fraud is 20x worse than the voucher lobby claims.

This is testimony…

📌 Stella Carlson, “Pink coat lady”, speaks on the murder of Alex Pretti.

“After the shooting, they (ICE) decided to just scatter and save themselves.”

Manufacturing culture wars allows Republicans to sound faux populist without having to address the practical problems faced by most Americans — lack of paid sick leave, unaffordable child care and elder care, stagnant wages, and inadequate housing. Don’t fall for it.

Cringe. Appalling how folks find comfort in this stuff.

Whipple: Wiles thought she was talking to someone who would give her a fair shake. And I did give her a fair shake. But the problem is, when you’re in that bubble, you wouldn’t recognize fair treatment when you see it—because crazy is crazy when you’re in that bubble.
