I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

This is a longstanding, thoroughly disproven lie.

Vance is carving out a little niche for himself as the guy who tells vicious, racist lies about non-white people to massage the egos of white nationalists. And the *specific* lies he tells reveal he’s well versed in white nationalist propaganda.
Speaking at the Univ of Mississippi in Oxford, Vice President JD Vance claimed that when settlers arrived in the New World, they “found widespread child sacrifice,” adding that “Christian civilization ended the practice.”

Thousands packed Ole Miss’ pavilion as Vice President JD Vance took unscripted questions on faith, policy and Trump-era politics.

Can’t put my finger on it, but today feels like a “play tons of Faust” day for some reason. #CDFriday

50 years ago today, Queen released “Bohemian Rhapsody.”
Sure, like there’ll be books in the gulag.

(Yes, I pledged for one anyways.)
Poseurs. I was a follower from before these were even called “skeets.”

Why is it that every disappeared US citizen is not front page news? At the very least we should have a little box with a count of the number of citizens who have been taken away and are not locatable and a link to a story with photos & min-bios, just as we used to do with military casually figures.
In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.
This is unconscionable! How can government-issued documents NOT supersede some app’s facial recognition capabilities?
New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

A spitfire of truth by @tressiemcphd.bsky.social that all should read.

We’ve already seen conspiracy theories about medicine and public health manifest as new EOs and health policy. Shouldn’t be surprising to see the “election fraud” lies and bullshit mobilized in similar ways.
Jerome Corsi, a conspiracy theorist who helped popularize QAnon back in 2018, claims he's involved with creating an upcoming Trump EO involving a "national emergency" targeting voter rolls, mandating voter ID, & requiring proof of citizenship. Corsi's also implied the military may be involved.
Election denial figures in podcast interviews & social media have been calling for Trump to declare a “national emergency” to prevent supposed election fraud.

One of them, Jerome Corsi, has claimed he’s involved in drafting an executive order “to be implemented for the" 2026 midterms.

The actual finding here is that a huge percentage of the population believes things that are not true. Democrats objectively did not spend significant time on climate change or LGBTQ issues in the last election campaign.
Duh. Those of us on the ground last year actually speaking with middle class/working class voters and who heard from these voters every single day the same - “Trump is an asshole, but Democrats are out of touch” - could’ve saved my new political party a lot of time & money producing this “report.”👇

See Autechre perform live if you can!! Saw them last night and it was an incredible mind-melting mixture of relentless beats and ear-tickling soundscapes, performed with the audience in total darkness. I’ll be processing this experience for quite some time. Whoo!!
Don’t tell Dr*ftK*ngs - next thing you know you’ll be able to wager on how many, how big, and whether the owner will leave the bag there “by mistake” or not.
Very much enjoyed Belly celebrating 30 years of their “King” album tonight by playing it front-to-back, and then coming back for a second set of their other great tunes. They still rock!!

Soft Cell were an equal partnership who, when firing on all cylinders as usual, were unbeatable. You get the best sense of how brilliant Dave Ball was (and Marc too) on the 12" mixes of singles. Some of the greatest records of all time.

Memorabilia goes hard as hell.

Well, this moves to the top of what seems to be a never-ending “to-read” pile. Shame I didn’t get to it earlier. #RIPDaveBall

That’s OK, her music is still great.
If you don’t have this already, what are you waiting for? Weirdly emotional and contemplative at the same time. Not the easiest listen, but absolutely worthwhile.

Nazi tat affair useful because anyone doing bizarre prevarications atm re how its totally normal to have a Nazi tattoo, good actually, not a big deal that'd matter in an election, if anything its cringe you care, etc etc, has revealed you never need to take their politics opinions seriously again.
Just wow. This is wild!
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.
