WASHINGTON (AP) — Southern Poverty Law Center says it faces criminal investigation by Justice Department over past use of paid informants.

He is saying out loud what many Americans think, and indeed what many human beings think. Unless we face these ideologies head on, we will lose. Humanity can not move forward unless we come together. First, we need to root out these extremely antisocial ideologies that infect people.

Kash Patel always makes me think of this meme:

NEW: Justice Dept demands Wayne County, Michigan turn over all ballots, ballot receipts & envelopes from 2024 election

"This request is as absurd as it is baseless,” said Michigan Atty General Dana Nessel

State says letter cites allegations that are “incorrect and not credible"

Over just five days, the justices had decided the issue. Even as they debated the Obama plan’s possible burden on the power industry, in the entire chain of correspondence obtained by The Times, not a single justice, conservative or liberal, mentioned the dangers of a warming planet as one of the possible harms the court should consider.

Another data point in “originalism is a fraud.” So much for the law is the law we can’t think about the impact. They rail against “results oriented judging” in public but when their corporate clients make requests they know exactly what to do. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

Time for more "Joe Rogan is abandoning Trump" takes.

He is a classic textbook GRIFTER. They have existed since the beginning of humankind. People are dumb enough to fall for it, just like they were 1000 years ago. If we want the world to be a better place, we need to assume there is always someone singing "Monorail"

I wrote an essay for Criterion about "Corporate Thrillers," including Wall Street, The Devil's Advocate, Disclosure, Michael Clayton, and more

The Shocking Secrets of Madison Square Garden’s Surveillance Machine Famously vengeful Knicks owner Jim Dolan has long spied on people at his iconic arenas. WIRED goes deep inside the operation that allegedly tracked a trans woman, lawyers, protesters, and more.

WOW: "Because Richards was a transgender woman, and Eversole allegedly wanted to keep her “away from the players."

Holy shit. I don’t have words for how corrupt this is. Keep in mind, the Ukraine whistleblower is still anonymous. And Gabbard kept a whistleblower report from Congress about a call between foreign intel agents discussing someone close to Trump and Iran. @andrewbakaj.bsky.social

These are entertainers. Nothing they say is serious. They feed off of politics and human misery to grab impressions. At worst, they are goose-stepping Nazis. At best, two-faced craven Grifters.

I’ll have what Hungary’s having.

Haha now US Navy is blockading the Straight, this is beyond stupid. Are we gonna sink an Italian ship for trying to go through, A British one? This is some of the dumbest shit to ever come out of a person's mouth. He is stupid and weak, he needs to be removed from office now.

This is the lowest reading ever, going back to 1950s when survey started. Trump has destroyed America.

Hottest annual headline inflation since May 2024:

US March CPI: the increase in inflation should be understood as a movement in two parts. The March data captured the initial shock, but all parties should expect further increases in April…..

Call me old fashioned, but I’m having a hard time moving past the whole “the president posted a graphic video of a woman getting murdered” thing.

Remove. Him. From. Office.

some people may argue that The Beekeeper not high art but it contains a scene in which a scammer tries to bribe Jason Statham with NFTs and is immediately tied to a truck and driven off the bridge so who’s to say it is not the greatest cinematic accomplishment of our times

it's really so beside the point by now, but i cannot believe people gave this psychotic motherfucker a second chance.

Tucker Carlson denounces Trump's Easter message: "No president should mock Islam. That’s not your job. This is not a theocracy."

He also denounces targeting civilian infrastructure: "That's totally unacceptable — not under the phony laws of some international body, but under moral law, God's law."

the fuck am i supposed to say in therapy today lol

I don't ever want to hear any political opinion from any trump voter ever again.

Seriously, what the fuck is this.

This is completely deranged, and anyone who can’t say so is a coward.

Trump's VA killed a home loan program. Vets are now losing their homes because of it Foreclosures on VA loans are at their highest level in a decade. VA has a fix but it is months away and could still leave vets worse off than most other homeowners.

Trump is kicking 100,000 veterans out of their homes. www.npr.org/2026/04/02/n...

Oh look the narcissistic with dementia is destroying America. Thanks again Trump voters. We will never forget. Maybe stay on the sidelines for the next 20 elections.

The Biden debate performance that ended his presidency was one-tenth as addled as what I'm watching right now.
