I'm sorry, I spat out my tea reading this line, "We will counter the spread of the surveillance state and authoritarian technologies that monitor and repress citizens."
*gestures wildly in literally every direction* What a crock of utter horseshit!
Every day we slide further from the light of all that is good.
It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.
He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.
We live in the dumbest timeline.
This is a policy of genocide.
Killing a bunch of elementary school girls to distract from having raped a bunch of middle- and high-school girls is pretty fucking grim.
the current position of the US government is that NVIDIA should be allowed to sell chips directly to China but banned from using Claude, because the latter is a larger national security risk. that is the level of absolute insanity coming out of the White House & Pentagon nowadays
The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?
This Titanic is designed to be unsinkable!
the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light
ICE is struggling to keep pace with vetting new hires during its historic recruitment push, so it's hiring officers before completing standard checks.
The agency fired five people after belatedly finding that they had outstanding warrants for their arrest.

While I’m happy it’s something, it’s not enough.
BREAKING: Under the plea agreement, the Sublette County resident would avoid time behind bars while paying a $1,000 fine. He'll also face 18 months of supervised probation and be prohibited from hunting, fishing and drinking alcohol.
Good thing this administration doesn’t have a track record of being pathological liars!
my local park is full of hundreds of snow sculptures and someone has been adding museum labels
Smart glasses vendors should be required to implement a standardized bluetooth "do not record here" signal that could be placed in restrooms, locker rooms, medical facilities, etc. The burden shouldn't be on the rest of us to prevent surreptitious recording, but it would at least be *something*.
Corruption aside, this is incredibly embarrassing for everyone involved
Out goes Sundance
In comes… Slopdance?

Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin O’Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, “Obama: Dems need to avoid scolding and ‘virtue-signaling.’” The post quotes O’Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.
I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.
Corn is a platform!
CNN headline that says Trump delivers a deadly blow to EPA’s ability to regulate climate pollution
The president is overruling science to eliminate measures that protect us from pollution and environmental damage, mainly to benefit multinational corporations that have thrown money at his campaign, ballroom, and family.
It's simple corruption, and it will cost American lives and livelihoods.
Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t think we should be taking scientific advice from a demented pedophile who tried to redraw a hurricane chart with a sharpie.
A bill introduced Wednesday proposes language that would end an era of recreationally running over foxes, coyotes, wolves and other animals on public land. "We should all be able to support this," an animal rights activist said.
“Mister President, Canada is moving ahead on trade with China because they no longer see us as a reasonable and dependable trading partner.”
“Well, what if I told them that the first thing China would do is take all their ice hockey away?”
Apparently we're going to have to translate the fucking Epstein files into Spanish so MAGA will be forced to be angry at them
No Kings includes Draft Kings
Two agents involved in the shooting deaths of US citizens in Minneapolis are reportedly part of highly militarized DHS units whose extreme tactics are generally reserved for war zones. www.wired.com/story/ice-cb...
The end of an era. I've attended every Sundance Film Festival since 1997. I was a volunteer for 10 years. Tonight, I saw a documentary that might be the last Sundance screening I ever attend, as the festival is moving to Boulder.
I've had a lot of good times at Sundance. I'm sad tonight.
Corruption, plain and simple.
Steve Witkoff, David Sacks, and Howard Lutnick must testify in front of Congress.
And Congress needs to grow a spine and put a stop to Trump’s crypto corruption.
Just fucking let trans people live.
