Russian sausage magnate Pavel Antov posted on WhatsApp calling Russia’s missile attacks on Kyiv terrorism

He was later seen after falling from the third-floor window of a luxury hotel in India

Russia’s consul general in Calcutta said there was no foul play

This is what all right wingers want their country to be like.

Pay attention to who they’re giving a platform to over at Fox News. Listen to their hateful, dehumanizing rhetoric. Then speak out against it forcefully.

Undercount
is such a banal way of saying
that in this moment
we are not even trying
to keep track
of this deadly virus.

You're doing amazing sweetie

"They are treating immigrants as enemies. No—worse. Enemies would be entitled to the protections of the Geneva Conventions, which would prohibit what Greg Abbott did on Christmas Eve." New from @monacharen: https://www.thebulwark.com/greg-abbott-scrooge/

GOP knew Santos was a fraud and laughed it off.

"Senior House Republicans were apparently aware of the inaccuracies and embellishments in Santos' resume, and the topic became a 'running joke,' multiple insiders close to House GOP leadership told The Post over the weekend."

@rodhilton: so much about he inventing electrical cars:

"Santos confessed Monday that he had 'never worked directly' for Goldman Sachs and Citigroup, chalking that fib up to a 'poor choice of words.'"

Never worked "directly" for them -- as in, he never worked for them at all.

Santos admits he lied, lied, and lied again to the voters.

This is fraud. And he should step down now.

My sister told me a funny story
from Christmas with her in-laws
in their tradition
whoever finds the almond
hidden in the rice pudding
will have a year of good luck,
but this year they forgot
to hide an almond
meaning none of them
will be lucky,
she laughs at this but I do not.

Twitter allowed antivax grifters and charlatans to build and monetize massive followings while pumping out conspiracy theories that measurably aided the spread of covid and caused untold deaths. Now Musk and his PR team want you to think even the cursory measures the site took to curb disinformation were odious censorship on par with a dictatorship.

Monopolies are driving the most extreme wealth imbalance in over a century. We must revive antitrust law and stop the monopolization of America. Now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLfO-2t1qPQ

How can anyone who claims to be a Christian support Trump.

Bad ballot design doesn’t just confuse voters, it sways elections.

2022 isn’t the year that we emerged from the pandemic.

It’s the year we chose to normalize ignoring it and leaving the most vulnerable behind.

He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software and Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit anyone's ever said, so when people say he's a genius I figured I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.
