they'll put a woman in prison for a miscarriage but you can state your intent to let your kids die from a preventable disease and its fine

Trump’s billionaire allies will now own CNN, Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ and NY Post — plus 185+ local tv stations and news in 100 markets.

They also control X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, TikTok, Truth and Twitch.

They control the AI you're integrating into your lives, the algorithms feeding you content, and your personal data you've given up for access.

This is all by design to manipulate and surveil us, and we’re not talking enough about it.

Pay attention.

.@JamesTalarico: For 50 years, the religious right convinced our fellow Christians that the most important issues were abortion and gay marriage—two issues that aren't mentioned in the Bible.

Jesus tells us exactly how we're going to be judged: by feeding the hungry, by healing the sick, and by welcoming the stranger.

Don’t tell me what you believe. Show me how you treat other people, and I’ll tell you what you believe. Jesus gave us two commandments: love God and love neighbor.

There was no exception to that second commandment regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status, or religious affiliation.

It’s important that you understand what happened last night.

Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue.

In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired.

CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.”

In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump.

But censorship always backfires.

Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.

BREAKING:

The US Labor Department announces that it is CANCELLING the October jobs report.

For the first time since 2013, we will not be receiving a monthly jobs report.

I am now the most banned author in the United States--87 books. May I suggest you pick up one of them and see what all the pissing & moaning is about? Self-righteous book banners don't always get to have their way. This is still America, dammit.

This is why everything sucks. It's not trans people. It's not immigrants. You are being robbed blind before your eyes and those same people also own all the tech and media networks to tell you that the cause is not them

[Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Kimmel.

Colbert.

Suits against the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and 60 Minutes.

Extorting settlements from CBS, ABC, and others.

Blocking the AP's access to the White House.

This administration is responsible for the most blatant attacks on the free press in American history.

What will be left of the First Amendment when he’s done?

🚩 Pseudoscience Red Flags 🚩

-“The food pyramid is making us sick” → the food pyramid doesn’t even exist anymore.
-“Buy my detox” → your liver and kidneys already are your detox system.
-“Natural is always better” → natural ≠ safe or effective (arsenic is natural too).
-“Root cause” → usually thrown around vaguely, with no real explanation of what the cause actually is.
-“Radical transparency” → branding for grift disguised as honesty.
-“Boost your immunity” (without specifics) → immune systems don’t work like an on/off switch.
-“Toxin-free lifestyle” → “toxins” are never defined. Which ones, exactly?
-“Biohack your health” → just basic healthy habits dressed up with a trendy label.
-“Ancestral” → our ancestors also died hella young.
-“Reset your hormones naturally” → meaningless marketing phrase with no explanation of which hormones and how they work.

Putin gets a red carpet with a warm welcome and Zelenskyy gets berated in the Oval Office by Trump and his goons.

That’s all you need to know about the state of America right now. Any true patriot is disgusted.

A reminder of how seriously Kim Davis takes the “sanctity of marriage”:

She married Husband 1, had twins with Husband 3, divorced Husband 1, married Husband 2, divorced Husband 2, married Husband 3, divorced husband 3, then remarried Husband 2.

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

Just to be clear, this is the U.S. Secretary of Defense—who multiple women voted to confirm—sharing content advocating for women to not vote.

I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes. This is why we must organize and stay in the fight!

Dear @PeteHegseth ,

In light of your woefully unfortunate decision to tweet Doug Wilson as an example of your vision for advancing God’s Kingdom in America, I would like to dedicate a series of tweets to the purpose of amplifying his message (“Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks) to help illuminate for the unsuspecting masses just what type of “leadership” you respect here.

Exhibit A: Doug Wilson is a self-ordained “pastor” of a very influential church.

An unsuspecting woman approached the church leadership asking for help finding a husband.

They matched her with a man named Steven Sitler, a convicted serial pedophile who has confessed to the molestation of more than 25 children.

The couple, who wanted children, needed the court’s permission to cohabitate, so one of the church elders, an attorney, pled Sitler’s case, despite the warnings of the psychological experts, and permission was granted.

Doug Wilson officiated the wedding and asked God to bless the union with children. Shortly after their child was born, a polygraph revealed that Sitler was aroused by him, surprising precisely no one with at least the intellect of a goldfish.

When asked about the affair, this is what Doug Wilson had to say:

“And just so — to be really clear about this — I conducted the wedding and would do so again next week. So this is not one of those things where I wish I hadn’t done that. It would have been much more convenient had this not happened, but I don’t think we were put here for convenience. I think we’re, this has been a big trouble but I would do it again.”

[Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦 @cmclymer]

This is yet another good example of why men are too emotional to be in leadership.

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

Secularism isn’t what’s driving people away from Christianity.

What’s driving people away from Christianity are those who claim to follow Jesus, but completely ignore his teachings and use his name instead to amass wealth and political power.
