Your little oopsie "mistakes" had me worrying for a year of my life about my partner going to jail for up to a decade based on lies likely fed to you by the top of the federal government. Show everyone what you're covering up in these emails and texts. There's a reason you don't want them released.

When the time comes that some things are being burned to the ground, I hope that those with torches don’t just stop with the expected old structures but branch out to setting a few new things on fire, too

Everywhere should be a hostile place for Republicans. They should not be able to find a friend anywhere. They should lose all their professional and familial relationships. They should be blocked from signing up to social media platforms, clubs, and yard sales. They should be ejected from fairs.

Wow 2026, you’ve even made sweet Mark Hamill a little saucy! 😂

The NIH has quietly dropped its loan repayment program for researchers doing health disparities research and for researchers from disadvantaged backgrounds. As an LRP awardee who had six figures in medical schools loans, I know how transformative this funding can be. Losing this funding will…

They think they're being clever eugenicists by saying that people with "underlying health issues" don't matter, but >75% of U.S. adults have a chronic condition (including 60% of age 18–34). So what they're really saying is "nobody matters, it's okay if everybody dies from inadequate regulation."

Breaking News: Two deaths in Michigan have been linked to cyclospora. Both people who had the parasite also had underlying health issues.

How ICE Is Weaponizing Social Media Against its Critics

Agency says its surveillance program searches for threats to agents, but critics see free-speech infringements.

Democrats: it’s about affordability! Democratic voters: we shall feast on their bones

The Dems have forgotten how to do a huge part of actual politics. It’s why Zohran is such a big deal.

ICE is no longer reporting deaths of immigrants released when the deaths occur within 30 days of being held by ICE. Why is that important? Because they will likely release people who are dying just to get them “Off their books” but who likely died from their ICE detainment. This is BS.

ICE will stop reporting deaths of newly released detainees

The policy, issued during the Biden administration, directed the agency to review and report all detainee fatalities, including those that occurred post-release.

I want to be reimbursed for having to spend 1/5th of my life dealing with this dipshit asshole and watching him wreck most everything I hold dear about this country.

Trump says he wants people to be reimbursed for being the victim of weaponization by Obama

A lot of “taking the prosecutors’ word for it” here to make an argument that requires being inside the heads of a disparate group of people who we only think of as a group with concerted strategies because prosecutors said so

"Their actions ensured that they struggled to achieve sympathetic media coverage outside of a few left-wing outlets, struggled to attract material or legal support (the ACLU, for instance, refused to touch the case), and failed to achieve positive virality in the larger culture."

RIP Glen Hansard. Such a great singer & artist. Generally, I think it's impossible to cover Neutral Milk Hotel and do the songs any justice, but Glen, with the Swell Season, did this unreal cover of "Two-Headed Boy" 15 years ago. It still gives me chills. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EPZ...

The reason people are turning to the DSA is because they’re tired of Democrats being so afraid of openly supporting their very own, popular center left agenda. These party has abandoned regular people so regular people are telling the party to fuck off. Something will fill the vacuum.

Oliver Willis@owillis.bsky.social · last wk.

It’s as if people like @billscher.bsky.social have been asleep for the last 25 years as they rend their garments over “what Fox News and republicans will say” if the DSA gets more popular. These are the same entities that said Obamacare was a socialist takeover and that Biden opened the border

What he's calling for is ethnic cleansing. This attitude led to the Trail of Tears, and farther down this path lie pogroms and ghettos and paramilitaries. This is the road to Srebrenica, to the Rawandan Genocide, to Auschwitz--that's where this ends if we don't stop it.

There's a lot of focus on democratic resilience from civil society actors at the moment, and rightly so, but I'm concerned there's not really a shared definition of what democratic resilience is, and often appears to fall back on a few ideas that I think are questionable.

nobody should use twitter (you don’t have to use bluesky! just not twitter!) but very specifically journalists and entertainment reporters using it has been astoundingly corrosive for our civil dialogue, because we have completely lost any semblance of “saying this is unacceptable”

It would help a lot if a lot of journalists and pundits weren't using Twitter as their assignment editor, several years into its transition into Stormfront.

The rich and powerful can buy their way out of mass surveillance … the rest of us can’t. It’s eerily similar to the response to the Covid pandemic. The wealthy installed state of the art clean air and leveraged all available technology to avoid repeat infections. The rest of us are on our own.

Evan Greer@evangreer.bsky.social · 2w ago

NEW: I wrote for MSNBC about how Madison Square Garden turning off their facial recognition cameras for Taylor Swift is a perfect encapsulation of our dystopian present: where the wealthy can use surveillance to consolidate power, and the rest of us live in a privately owned panopticon.

“Dr. Brian P. Lee, a USC liver transplant doctor, said he voted ‘no’ based on the fact that a sham medication, or placebo, can lead 30 percent of patients to believe their condition has improved. He said the data for the peptide indicated an even smaller effect than a standard placebo”

The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 2w ago

The vibes may be exciting, but if Democrats are going to win this year and in 2028, they must reject the DSA. If you’re tempted by a democratic socialist this year, think of what use Republicans will make of these victories, and ask whether you want to do favors for fascists.
