2/2 for falsely accusing of being silly about Collins.

Jordan Greaney @suritorange.bsky.social · 8h

I told you Kaitlan Collins is a MAGA darling.

But what do you idiots do? Handwave me and be like “No no no, she’s a liberal.”

But guess what? @aoc.bsky.social and @sanders.senate.gov caught her red handed and saw through her games.

Don’t apologize, you can bow your heads in shame 1/2

I hear the Young Republicans took a nazi-style oath.

Their parents who raised them can fuck off because they fucked up if they raised their children to be that way.

Joint statement from ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox, and NBC, telling Hegseth to go piss up a rope.

“Today, we join virtually every other news organization in declining to agree to the Pentagon’s new requirements, which would restrict journalists’ ability to keep the nation and the world informed of important national security issues."

“The policy is without precedent and threatens core journalistic protections. We will continue to cover the U.S. military as each of our organizations has done for many decades, upholding the principles of a free and independent press."

A tweet from the Anonymous account says, “Make sure the dude in the frog costume in Portland knows he's an icon.” The image is a stylized poster of a frog wearing a stars-and-stripes scarf with the word “HOP” below, in the style of the Obama “HOPE” poster.

Here’s how tariffs work. Your costs go up, and that money gets transferred to the wealthy.

Whether you’re progressive, liberal, leftist, libertarian, communist, socialist, moderate, democrat, conservative, Christian, atheist, Gen Z, Boomer… we have the same enemy. It’s the oligarchs.

The ironic part? Most of my teachers edge in special education and my former classmates were in special education.

Guess who ended up not voting for trump? Me. You can figure where this turned out for them.

ICE in Chicago detained two people (that we know of) for filming them today, a cyclist and a neighborhood rapid responder. This in addition to tear gassing another neighborhood and brandishing weapons at rapid response—both things that have also already been going on for weeks.

Not to mention Jake claimed Biden WAS frail and sick during his presidency WHEN Biden is now getting treatment for Cancer. Assholes like Jake really have no business misreporting a president’s health.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

It is seriously scary to go out now. I browse the ICE sitings and plan accordingly, or just cancel because no one wants to get caught up in this horrible mess going to dentist appointment or whatever. Basically trapped inside. Worse than Covid lockdown, much worse, but just as uncertain. I hate it.

“YOU hit HER.”

CHICAGO - Trump’s ICE goons ram into a passing car after snatching someone, then brutally drag the female driver of the car they hit out of her car with guns drawn and arrest her too. (Her brother says she’s a citizen)
