- Pope Leo truly has divine timing....he spoke about the dangers of AI right before Republicans put language in the reconciliation bill about banning state AI laws for 10 years. Do republicans even care about God anymore, or just their tech overlords?

- Reposted by KatieIt's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

- Reposted by KatieHaving now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

- Reposted by KatieWhen the HHS Secretary is telling the American public that trusting expert scientists is not a function of democracy, it’s well and truly over for science in the USA. I can’t stress this enough. If scientific expertise is believed to be an enemy to democracy, we are finished. Complete catastrophe.

- Reposted by KatieIf reporters aren't going to take stands against this shit, they should at least check to see if Trump watched at least a little bit of ConAir this weekend. It explains both of his insane posts about reopening Alcatraz and putting tariffs on those effete French films that have woked our boys.
- Reposted by Katie@jonlovett.bsky.social on Trump's tariffs: "It is only possible because Republicans refuse to take back the power that they have... The problem is not that we put the worst human being in public life in the most powerful job in the world, it is that he is enabled by Republicans around him."
- Reposted by KatieThe guy who according to the Washington Post told a minimum of 31,000 lies during his first term in office has just said he will not make an effort to secure an illegal third term so I say we just take it on faith that he is telling the truth and report his claims of anodyne intent as straight fact
- Reposted by KatieThe most corrupt president in history is having two dinners that'll put millions into his pocket. One is a $1.5 million-per-plate fundraiser attended by deep-pocketed donors. The other is a dinner for the ultra-rich owners of his memecoin. You can't make this stuff up.
