This is where we are these days. Real banana republic level stuff.

EPA Leadership Is So, So Proud of Its Ignorance Splinter is your home for news and opinions that challenge power in our political and economic system that's becoming more unhinged each and every day.

"It’s like taking over a hospital and making the surgeons break bones instead of fix them, like suddenly requiring your engineering firm to use 'three' in place of pi, like telling a three-star chef her new goal is to make all the patrons puke."

I remember when this happened.

Epstein victim Maria Farmer: “Ivana was [Ghislaine’s] best friend… She’d drive by schools… get [girls’] phone numbers… Everybody knew what they were doing.” To shut her up, “they gave me one of those cheap bracelets Ivana was selling on QVC.”

Is this the kind of memo you want to be caught sending to the world’s biggest pervert?

TikTok is killing us with these 😬

Dear @stephencolbert.bsky.social,

Thanks for all the years of speaking truth to power & finding the funny in fascism.
Looking forward to following you wherever you land,

Your fan, Mar🐫

Brazil absolutely clowning on the US at this point

27 different named women accused him of sex assault, he’s on video with Epstein where they are grossly leering at young women, Miss Teen USA contestants said he came in dressing room when they were naked, he bragged on the Access Hollywood tape about grabbing women. It’s obvious.

What CBS' disgraceful termination of Stephen Colbert illustrates is how quickly a Republic can fall when the media chooses cowardice instead of courage.

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

First they come for the comedians, then the cartoonist. Kings fear being laughed at. We have a funny bone to pick with/without a smile on our faces #Colbert #Kimmel #SethMeyers #DailyShow

Today, on the 5th anniversary of Rep. John Lewis’ passing, I joined the Good Trouble Rally in the Twin Cities to confront the injustice we're seeing in this moment.

We must speak up, speak out, get in the way. When we march together, we can go so much further.

Gov. Gavin Newsom mulls special election to redistrict California “Maybe we’ll do it here in California,” he said of Trump’s mandate that Texas Republicans redistrict to win five more GOP seats.

I support this cause but tbh I feel a little bit scared about this plan by Newsom. I’m a proud member of the rebel alliance but I fear this plan here could lead to unintended problems for @cademocrats.bsky.social but one thing to remember Gerrymandering was allowed by the Roberts Court.

“the kindest person in the room is often the smartest.” JB Pritzker is a mensch.

Oregon Democrat introduces bill to require ICE officers display IDs, drop masks Officer’s names or badge numbers, along with their agency name, would be shown in a visible area of their gear or clothing.

One of my two great Senators, working for his constituents. Many thanks, Senator Wyden!

Adams, top aides ran ‘coordinated criminal conspiracy’ at NYPD, former interim commish alleges Tom Donlon, who briefly led the country’s largest police force in 2024, is calling for a federal takeover of the department

The NYPD's former commissioner is suing Mayor Eric Adams, alleging the nation’s largest police force ran a vast criminal enterprise to enrich top officials and calling for a federal takeover of the department.

There have been multiple flash floods across the U.S. since the start of July. Each was unique. Each happened in a few hours. Each occurred at the time of year weather experts call “flash flood month.” Here's what to know. nyti.ms/3Ufzynz

And the backfire got lit with a post by Elon Musk, no less. It makes one wish there was more in depth reporting - but it looks like this is a story nobody wants to have anything to do with. A safe bet is this is not going to go away anytime soon, much to the dismay of Trump.

This Epstein affair is getting stranger by the minute. Trump seems certifiably panicked - throwing everything at it that’s “worked” for him in the past to little avail. Yet it was his campaign that started this whole thing to begin with. Something feels very off.

Could you imagine a president of the United States tanking the bond market to distract from a sex scandal?

Not possible, right? Like some kind of crazy movie script too absurd even for Hollywood?

If they think Superman is woke, wait until they learn about Jesus.
