Can’t believe our tax dollars are being used for political ads. The White House is now airing a taxpayer-funded ad during commercial breaks on Fox News. The 30-second spot has all the markings of a campaign ad, except the disclaimer at the bottom says: “Paid for by the U.S. Government.”

Room empties out at the UN as Netanyahu begins his speech.

If a politician takes money from weapons manufacturers, don't be surprised when they back weapons contracts. If a politician takes money from Big Pharma, don't be surprised when they try to stop guaranteed healthcare. That's why I don't take ANY corporate money. None.

It really does look like the poster for a horror movie, doesn’t it?

i really can’t bring myself to care about AI anthropomorphism debates. “is AI thinking?” i don’t know. is a calculator calculating? questions for the philosophers. what’s important is that we put sam altman in prison.

Cis people do not understand how much trans people's rights have regressed in just 5 years. 5 years ago, there were none of these restrictions. 19 states banned legal recognition 21 states have bathroom bans 8 states ban gender marker changes on DLs 25 ban gender affirming care for trans youth

A few days ago I had a discussion with the top executive of a corporation specializing in AI who told me not to worry and assured me that the chance of AI wiping out humanity is “no more than 10 percent.” I was astounded. Isn’t a 10 percent threat of extinction STILL too high?

Isn’t a 10 percent threat of extinction too high?

KALLAS: We need to restrict visas for Russians. It is not okay that Russia is bombing Ukraine, killing civilians while Russians are entering EU, and enjoying our hospitality. These tourist visas are also a tool used for acts of sabotage. This is a matter of our security as well.

Big money spent $70 million to try and defeat Abdul El-Sayed and it didn't work! POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.

In other Michigan news, the state looks set to elect it's first transgender lawmaker. Joanna Whaley won her Democratic primary and will compete in November for a state house seat, beating a primary opponent who tried and failed to disqualify her for not running under her deadname

A monstrous waste of money.

Unfathomable

Don't let anyone gaslight you. Tonight was a HUGE win and represents a seismic shift in Democratic politics.

the whole "women's sports exist to protect women from men" framing is hilarious, given that a lot of these divisions were initially formed because men were deeply embarrassed any time a woman beat them at a sport olympic shooting was mixed gender right up until a woman won the gold

This clip from the 2021 movie, “Don’t Look Up” never gets old.

Hey guys: Taylor Farms paying the government to pretend like their lettuce isn't a public health concern, after testing positive for cyclospora, is what an oligarchy looks like.

Mail-in voting is essential for disabled voters, seniors, rural voters, overseas service members, people with inflexible work schedules, and more to participate in our democracy. We'll be back in court in August to stop this executive order from being implemented before the midterm elections.

anyway case in point you can learn the vocabulary of social justice but that doesnt mean you know what the words mean

Add it to the impeachment list.

So Moscow Mitch gets free healthcare, but the rest of us don't. And he doesn't even have to show up to work?? Medicare for all NOW
