Drug trafficking is not a capital crime; it doesn’t carry a death sentence. I genuinely cannot think of anything under U.S. law that would permit premeditated government assassination of people suspected of drug trafficking.
What a mess. Someday I’ll get to sink back into the trees. Queer, pagan, Okie, humanist, learner, maker, fiber and textile enthusiast.

Trump administration have just released the video of the strike on the Venezuelan vessel. It’s the size of a very small fishing boat, blasted to pieces by multi-million dollar US hardware. It doesn’t look strong. It’s embarrassing.
🚨Governor Pritzker is calling Stephen Miller OUT! 👏🏻The👏🏻Cruelty👏🏻is👏🏻the📌
You mean stimulants aren’t going to help his blown out arteries pump 6 liters of fluid out of his legs. You don’t say?!
Hopped up on major stimulants. Nothing more than drugged up pedophile posing as a president.
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"
"The AIDS epidemic was a society-altering catastrophe, one that inspired legions of future doctors—gay and straight alike—to pursue careers in infectious disease. Today they make up a disproportionate share of the specialty’s senior ranks."
Donald Trump’s “takeover” of Washington, DC, is authoritarian thuggery. It’s a projection of power, driven by retrograde racism.

I know it’s petty, but I HATE his American Girl doll teeth. If we don’t get a Will Ferrell impersonation this season…
180 shots fired, 150 broken windows. Tumultuous firings and resignations at the CDC. The installation of a techno-optimist with a history of pushing unproven medical treatments. The month of August 2025 may go down as the worst in the history of the US Health and Human Services Department.
Where I live, an 11 yo girl was forced to deliver a baby, alone in squalor, after being impregnated by her stepfather. Of course a proud family values state. And we had plenty of shootings too.
This is not reporting. This is propaganda.
Everyone who applies should be added to a watchlist because they’re all a danger to society. Christian is worried about psychos but doesn’t realize he’s the psycho.
“I keep seeing these memes where Indians are bragging about taking our tech jobs,” said Ely, 36. “So I said, ‘Oh yeah? Well I’m going to work with these guys that are going to arrest you, slam your face on the pavement and send you home.’” wapo.st/3VrzEJg
All from an account called RAW EGG Nationalist.
I just think that the outward physical symptoms will continue to become more severe and less easy to hide as time goes on. With progressive renal and cardiac issues, the symptom cycles will get tighter and tighter as frequency of treatment increases, until one of the systems gives out.
*Thread* Children of Congress members do not have to pay back their college student loans. Staffers of Congress family members are also exempt from having to pay back student loans. Members of Congress can retire at full pay after only one term. Page 1
Thank you on this labor day!!
I remember early November 2023. I think I was the first person on US mainstream media, while at MSNBC/Peacock, to say the G-word on TV. On my show. It was seen as hugely controversial then. It's controversial no longer. It's undeniable, irrefutable, the consensus view.
Aside from how Obama is remembered, it's striking that Obamacare is basically the last serious presidential legislative agenda that wasn't just trying to contort an annual budget bill to fit in everything you can crowbar into it.
If this had been a group of black kids beating a lone white kid every single one of them would have been arrested immediately and put into the system as "gang members".
It's high time we start beating the shit out of Nazis.
Welcome to Herr Pedo Taco's America, which suspiciously like the worst of the southern USA during Jim Crow. I was born in 1950 and fully expected things to be so much better by now. I'm so ashamed.
The victim was identified as Keontae. He managed to escape and called his mom from a cornfield an hour away. Thankfully, he did not suffer serious physical injuries, but local leaders say the emotional scars are already heavy—mistrust, fear, and trauma. 4/4 www.wkow.com/news/top-sto...
Video shows white teens punching him while yelling racial slurs like “F*** that n up” and “kill that n.”At one point, they shoved him against a meat grinder, then slammed him to the ground and kept beating him. This is not “kids being kids.” This is racial violence in 2025, in Wisconsin. 2/4
This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4
Hey Congress – make Alex Acosta's testimony public and televised. There's absolutely no ethical reason for it to be private and transcribed. Nefarious AF. We need to hear your questions. We want to see him squirm. We need to see him squirm. Yet another sign of a cover-up.
it’s 5 o’clock in the middle of the Atlantic, and bay-bee I’m ready to watch this Titanic smash the iceberg of mortality.
Chicago this Labor Day… Thousands fighting for what #WorkersDeserve
🚨 “Black women are the canaries in the coal mine, the exclusion happens to them first,” Katica Roy said. “And if any other cohort thinks it’s not coming for them, they’re wrong. This is a warning, and it’s a stark one.” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...
Kristi Noem pledges all-out war on American cities (but only the ones that voted against Trump) as a part of the retribution campaign. Around the world this is seen as clear evidence of how fascism has taken hold in America; in US media it merits hardly a mention.
9 Former CDC Directors who were all qualified for their posts are warning that deranged chaos agent RFK Jr is a danger to public health. I’d say he’s actively destroying public health and committing murder on a daily basis with his destructive monstrous agenda.
Not nearly enough random capitalization.
You know, the press is not obligated to lick boots. In fact, quite the opposite. Sick of media both-sidesing when there’s a literal photo of him very intentionally punching her in the face. It’s ok to be certain about factual information instead of making everything speculative, all the time.
You know it’s bad if he doesn’t even have the energy to raise his arms to conjure that bird’s nest on his head.
Really every day since mid-June. It’s always important to find that silver lining, for there lies a much needed shred of joy.
Heather Honey, a high-profile denier of Donald Trump’s loss in the 2020 election, has been appointed to a senior position in the Department of Homeland Security in which she’ll help oversee election security.
Because they would rather watch their own suffer and die than watch people unlike them experience joy.
Hey! Just icymi: FEMA is now evicting THOUSANDS of Hurricane Helene survivors Our government hates us. And millions voted for this degree of brutality and cruelty. Why?
they absolutely will. Every NG chatroom and reddit has nothing but this all over it. Not only is this regime overstepping their authority they are completely fucking our service members in the process. He honestly thinks our military works for HIM and treats them as his employees - like shit. 2/2
For me, it’s about harm reduction. I have a lot of issues with the Dem’s centrist inclinations. I have a lot of issues with how they allow money to influence legislation and policy initiative or lack thereof. I have all the same issues with the GOP, plus the added layers of intentional harm.
I’ve been thinking about this for a while: There is so much discourse on what the Democratic Party needs to do, what we want from our elected officials, that we shouldn’t have purity tests, etc. But what I want to know is this: why are you a Democrat? Please repost so there are more responses!
He’s a sadist POS who frames everything as strength and weakness, and in the true form of a spineless troll lacking testicular fortitude, he’s only really brave enough to harm the defenseless. He’s also nuttier than a box of squirrel turds, so he can get in the restraints first.
O'Keefe to Noem: "At least 20 people who signed this letter were current FEMA employees & they've been placed on administrative leave. Is it now the policy of DHS that anytime an employee puts their name on something criticizing you or POTUS, they should anticipate being put on leave or fired?"
Not only is our new acting director of the CDC NOT a scientist, but he also has deep ties to Peter Thiel and Silicon Valley’s techno-utopia movement. One epidemiologist compared Jim O’Neill’s appointment to “making Elon Musk head of the FAA.”
Yeah, I don’t foresee anyone coming to intimidate voters at the tiny church where I vote and there has only ever been a line one time out of the ten years I’ve voted there. I’ll ask them how their knees and backs are doing from all of the standing around they’re doing.
Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."
The entire fascist plot relies on us being terrified and sad. This is why they’re constantly trying to scare everyone with theatrics. They want you to see him as unstoppable and not as a 79-year-old with severe health problems who will die soon.
I do sometimes wonder what my Twitter feed would look like during the Holocaust
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT Beware the flurry of new accounts that are spamming replies with malicious links. Do not click. Report & block.
In her prison interview w/ Todd Blanche, Ghislaine Maxwell told Blanche some of the freaks who hung out w/ Jeffrey Epstein were members of the Trump's cabinet — but like an attorney protecting his pedophile president, Blanche didn't ask Maxwell for names. tinyurl.com/4rs75dt2
New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.
Wasn’t he supposed to reveal the cause of autism in September? Lol clock’s ticking.
That auto pen must have been working overtime getting out as many illegal EO in the last 3 days. They know his time is nearly up. Im sure Miller and Vance are plotting feverishly with glee rn. 😖
Because his kidneys are failing.
Quite…puffy.
Get Jake Tapper on it, he’ll have a book ready in 2029.
Completely agree!
I didn’t buy the apples either. 🤷🏻♂️
What a fucked-up country we are. 😳👇
The 3lb bag of apples I paid $6.59 for in January was $9.19 yesterday. Almost 50%.
“It’s just incredibly cruel.” Kristi Noem waives environmental laws to build Trump’s wall through a wildlife refuge.
But at least we’ll have black lung and measles.
More government meddling from the so-called small government party 🤬 scdailygazette.com/2025/08/26/r...
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Hearing that the whistleblower, Charles Borges, has now resigned. He was the SSA Chief Data Officer. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...
Kennedy himself said in a hearing we shouldn’t take his advice that he’s not an expert
Mike Johnson makes clear that when Congress returns next week he's going to work tirelessly to cover up the Epstein files
Amazing how they’re reaching to avoid the obvious. The shooter was an alumnus of the school. The shooter’s mother worked at the school. In every way the shooter was a product of the school.
Don’t look away
The mainstream media won't tell you that Trump is building a police state because their owners think there's money to be made after Trump builds his police state.
Blaming the prevalence of mass shootings in America on the existence of trans people isn’t just a dangerously stigmatizing, politically motivated take. It’s also bad math. "Transgender individuals are much more prone to being the victims of violence than they are likely to commit it.”
Did you read somewhere that she was surprised by this?
It will be so cathartic when the day comes that we can finally dismantle all of their traitorous disrespect.
With the news that RFK Jr.’s desired replacement for the CDC director is a Peter Thiel acolyte with no real experience in the area, it’s time to re-up this shocker from @propublica.org detailing how Thiel built a (tax-free) $5 billion Roth IRA:
The President has a masked paramilitary disappearing people off our streets without due process, and most people are still, like, “when is Fascism getting here?”
We will be jettisoning trans rights from the Dem Party platform over my room-temperature fucking corpse. We are leaving no one behind, and fuck anyone who thinks otherwise. A core tenet of American identity is that we, not the government, define ourselves. All of us get protections or none of us do
Oh yes I forgot. The “thoughts and prayers” crowd are the victims here. For a minute I was focused on the children.
RFK and the wacky zealots who surround him are endangering the nation’s health and future well being. MRNA vaccines are safe and effective - full stop. Kennedy must resign if the nation is to be safe.
PRESS RELEASE: 131 attend Empty Chair Town Hall Meeting without Lankford, Mullin freepressokc.com/press-releas... #Oklahoma
He's using dead christian kids to promote his conspiracy theories?
RFK is using a mass shooting to politically go after drugs he doesn't like.
Full resignation letter from Demetre C. Daskalakis, a CDC leader, does not hold back. "The recent shooting at CDC is not why I am resigning. My grandfather, who I am named after, stood up to fascist forces in Greece and lost his life doing so. I am resigning to make him and his legacy proud."
28 Aug 25 -- Trump admin threatens to pull fed funding from 40 state sex-ed programs that mention transgender or gender identity. Programs aim at preventing unplanned pregnancies and STDs, and all had been previously approved by fed govt. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social
A former CDC staffer adds: “This is the work of a death cult.”
ICE took 2 firefighters OFF THE FUCKING FIRE LINE!?
RFK, Jr., diagnosing all your kids in Terminal C.
At a distance in the airport, no less. Such a worryingly dangerous freak.
CDC Director Monarez was ousted and four other senior CDC officials resigned, after pressure from Kennedy to rescind certain approvals for coronavirus vaccines. This f*cking quack!
The sane ones, but not the ones who swam in the sewage water with him. They were literally up to their necks in his BS.
The last photos taken by Mariam Dagga show the damaged stairwell outside a hospital in the Gaza Strip where she would be killed by an Israeli strike moments later.
In a functional government, this would be a five alarm fire where Congress calls in Kennedy and asks him what the fuck is going on
Is he rotting too? He looks awful. Let the leopards eat his face, he had one of the heaviest hands in making this mess.
And also has the lowest educational standards in the country, and ranks sixth in poverty in the US and 8th in drug use and addiction, primarily meth and fentanyl. But don’t tell that to the republican gov or legislators.
"The oft-mentioned tyranny being opposed by gun owners is really just the sense that the wrong people are encroaching on the privileges and prerogatives of whiteness." From 2020:
Tbf, broad swathes of Oklahomans also do not want Ryan Walters to be here.
Reminder that these people cannot *Stand* each other and that fact should be constantly, relentlessly exploited.
