I first said this some years ago but was forcefully reminded of it this week: Any sufficiently advanced negligence is indistinguishable from malice.

@vanhollen.senate.gov You heard Secretary Duffy! Go into Congress and demand to end ICE funding, the ballroom funding, the Arch funding, the Iran war funding, etc, and put it into a system that Americans need and use (upgrading the FAA systems).
@jesszafarris.com Any reason why “catfisting” is also known as “dogging”? As @robwords.com would know “dogging” means something very different in Britain, and that is definitely not catfisting.
Humanity has never reached this far. NASA’s Voyager 1 is passing an unprecedented milestone: one light-day from Earth. A radio signal traveling at the speed of light now takes 24 full hours just to reach the probe—nearly 50 years into its journey. 🛰️✨
During the 2024 campaign, Trump promised to "make it a personal mission to totally eradicate veterans’ homelessness in America." Now he's gutting the very programs meant to keep them in their homes. Another Trump lie.
Trump's VA killed a home loan program. Thousands of veterans are paying the price
An NPR investigation finds that more than 15,000 military veterans were put into much-higher-cost home loans after the T

Republicans have introduced a federal ‘catch kit’ bill that would require miscarriage & abortion patients to sift thru their blood to separate pregnancy remains from “other solid waste,” put it in a “brightly colored” bag labeled “HUMAN FETAL REMAINS,” and bring their doc. It’s fucking deranged
New Federal Bill Would Mandate ‘Catch Kits’ For Miscarriage & Abortion Patients
This is what Republicans are doing while Americans can’t afford food, btw

This is so wrong The reason “Trump didn’t steal the elections” is because we & the pro-voter coalition stopped him EIGHT times over the past 21 months Here’s how: a thread (1/x)
Make him do it. Veto a minimum wage bill. An anti-corruption bill. An end the war bill. A stop ICE bill. A save medicaid bill. A lower prices bill. Make him veto everything people want. Create the contrast, electoralize it, win in '28, and then make it all law in '29. cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_ful...
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social This is what a lot of people want. 👇
Celebrate — then hold everyones ass to flames. All dems combined. If they don’t prosecute all these assholes to the fullest, abolish ICE, rid us of data centers/AI, stop funding Israel, and protect Trans and Black lives then what is even the point. No backsliding. No Fettermans or Synemas allowed.
'In 1860, an enslaved man named Sheppard Peek was listed among the possessions of William Peek, a white man in Crawfordville. His value was placed at $1,400. More than a century and a half later, Sheppard’s great-great-granddaughter, Keisha Lance Bottoms, was elected governor of Georgia.'
Keisha Lance Bottoms and the long road from Crawfordville to Governor’s Mansion
More than 160 years after her ancestors were enslaved in Georgia, the former Atlanta mayor has made history as the first Black woman elected governor.

Please excuse legacy media. They have been too preoccupied with the similarity of two names on an Alaska ballot to report that former Miss Switzerland Beatrice Keul alleges that Donald Trump brutally raped her in a suite at New York's Plaza Hotel in November of 1993.
@foxnews.com.web.brid.gy @chrislhayes.bsky.social @cbsnews.com @nbcnews.com @velshi.com @cnn.com Crickets? Why no discussion of these new allegations?
this is just insanely damning stuff when you lay it all out democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...
