As Republicans salivate over classified documents being found among Biden's papers, there's a problem: The details make Donald Trump look worse.

Amazing sunset in Washington this evening! The sky looked like it was on fire. #Photography #wawx #Sunset #PNW #SonyAlpha

@ProPublica is launching its fifth regional bureau: Northwest, covering the states of #Washington, #Oregon, #Alaska and #Idaho. We're hiring a regional editor now, and three more reporters later this year. Extremely cool opportunity for the right #editor and I am a little jealous of whichever #journalist gets to cover Alaska! https://www.propublica.org/jobs/northwest-editor

Florida can NOT be an asylum for dictators.

Extradite Bolsonaro.

Indict Trump.

Now.

The parent company of Parler laid off 75% of its staff.

It now has 20 employees running both Parler and the parent company’s cloud service

Before you celebrate realize: Nazis don’t need Parler. They have Twitter.

After six shooting incidents targeting Democrat officials since early December, New Mexico police *finally* have a suspect in custody. Officials haven't yet used the term "domestic terrorism," but what else can we label such behavior?

The Washington Post replaced their "share on twitter" icon with a "share on Mastodon" link. This needs doing across the internet. Twitter is Alex Jones, twitter is Truth Social, twitter is Tucker Carlson.

Twitter is Steve Bannon's playground for organizing violence and hate.

Get friends off twitter, get mastodon links on every newssite, article and share.

End twitter, promote freedom and the tusk, save the world.

@flexghost
Santos really IS a Republican.

George Santos paid a staffer $100k to pretend to be Kevin McCarthy's chief of staff in order to get money from donors

Watch. This is the thing that does him in. You don’t mess with rich people’s money

Look how fast they jumped on Sam Bankman-Fried without fully understanding the complicated case

Then look how Trump gets to sit with his feet up, looking through stolen TS/SCI documents and while the DOJ sits on its thumb calling the case too complicated.

"I Hide Giants That I Make From Wood In The Wilderness Of The Belgian Forest

My name is Thomas Dambo. I build giant wooden trolls around the world and hide them in wilderness and forests. I build all my mythical creatures of repurposed wood to show the potential in this precious material, which is often discarded and becomes a threat to the natural world."

@jerry Mastodon has been eye-opening, I didn’t know about it prior to October. I find supporting my instance/server is a way to push back. I hope people who sign up think about contributing to theirs.

I review Russian online news organizations TASS, Kommersant, Izvestia, RIA and Agentura. I just did it today and there is no sign of Vladimir Putin. Nothing on the front sections. No photos or headlines that mention him.

Mastodon's growth isn't "slowing".

It's simply at the lower end of a volatile trajectory.

Mastodon's growth trends are almost always dependent on something bad happening on another service.

Elon Musk hasn't done anything stupid recently, so things are quieter now.

But even now, Mastodon is adding 1 million users every 6 weeks.

That's more growth than in September.

@TonyStark It would help if our media would stop referring to McCarthy’s House members as “Moderates”. A huge chunk of their caucus voted against certifying the election. Even before that, for decades they have been engaged in extreme racial gerrymandering. I am sick of hearing Nancy Mace complain about the extremists in her party when she owes her seat to an antidemocratic seizure of power via racial gerrymandering as recently proven in court. https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2023/01/06/South-Carolina-Congress-District-gerrymandered/9931673029886/

It’s not covid for anyone playing along at home

Kevin McCarthy added a secret three-page addendum to the rules package containing the most controversial concessions in order to secure the votes of the most dangerous members of Congress.

The American people deserve to know what's in it.

BREAKING: Dan Goldman and I are filing a formal complaint with the House Ethics Committee against George Santos for violating the Ethics in Government Act.

George Santos must be held accountable for defrauding both Congress and the public.
