Joe Poulin
Tell me something you love learning about! (But not if you’re one of those asshole harassers who hates women)
- the sensible people of this country want to get rid of ICE and Democratic politicians do not want to get rid of ICE we don’t have to do this goofy dance like it’s mysterious it’s a simple truth move past anyone who refuses to acknowledge
- So you won the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. You stacked the courts, the DOJ, HHS, the FBI, and everything else with loyalists. But you think you should be allowed total control of elections to make sure it's not "rigged". "Make America Stupid Again" because smart people dont like you. 🙄
- So the “elected” President with his elected majority House and Senate says they have to takeover elections because Dems cheat. Make that argument make sense.
- scariest sentence? ".. the pResident of the United States needs to read the Constitution.." youd think that'd be the FIRST requirement to run for the office ill take someone under 35 who knows Constitutional law ANY day over some ancient fascist cov'd in QuikTan & wearing a tacky ill-fitting suit

- I see people posting various laws that supposedly allow the president great powers to oppress American citizens. I say bullshit. The Constitution guarantees a number of important rights to every American citizen. Laws that contradict that are not legitimate. We WILL NOT OBEY unconstitutional laws.
- How many boxes need to be checked for a banana republic dictator wannabe to actually gain the oligarch throne? So far: • Became filthy rich robbing the US • Formed Führer's 'police' force • Invaded states paramilitarily • Elections takeover begun • Unchecked power sought • Unaliving citizens begun
- Pretty privilege!? The barista told me he didn’t charge me for my extra shot of espresso. 💅🏽
- For those who are "shroomscrollers"... check out this feed of great mycology pics from around Bluesky. It's your daily dose of spores! 🍄✨ The ultimate feed for mushroom and mycology enthusiasts: bsky.app/profile/did:... #photography #Mushrooms #Mycology #Fungi #NaturePhotography #BlueskyFeeds

- Money can buy happiness. If Elon Musk built a rocket and shot himself into the fucking sun that would generate massive happiness.
- Made it through hump day. Means it's almost sort of the weekend. Soon. Sleep well friends. Family sends love to you all. Hugs 💤💙💤
- Kristi Noem is an absolute disgrace. And if Mike Johnson is too big of a coward to impeach her, we will!

- It's the Winter Olympics, so my once-every-four-years chance to note that my wife's aunt was once the head of the Canadian curling federation. Her husband? A leader in the Mounties. If this family were any more Canadian, they'd be maple-flavored.

- Actually, the linked piece is by Glenn Ellmers, who some folks might remember a couple of years ago made the case that most Americans aren’t meaningfully American. tomklingenstein.com/trump-must-l...
- This Claremont twit is so fearful of “wine moms” with cell phones and whistles that he’s demanding Trump crush them with violence. Or rather, more violence.

- whoever figures out a way to bundle independent journalism subscriptions will be a hero
- Loved ones at home wait anxiously for my return.
- Gonna ruin my mentions before sitting down to dinner and just say, Mamdani endorsing Hochul just makes good political sense. She's been backing him in all kinds of ways, almost none of his more ambitious agenda is can accomplished without the state government's assistance.

- STOP talking shit about 2028 Democratic presidential primary candidates: Walz is PERSONABLE Shapiro is RHETORICALLY GIFTED AOC is CHARISMATIC Pritzker is SUCCESSFUL Newsom Buttigieg has EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE
- These 2 kids detained last week were brought back to MN today. But school officials say many others from the Columbia Heights district are missing. They're not sure if they're in ICE detention or have moved away with their families. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
- The two children who returned to MN today say they saw one of their Valley View schoolmates at a detention center in TX. This is a child whose family was last in contact with the school on January 9. No one has known where they were until now.
- Kiddies who made it out of the ICE dungeon report sighting a schoolmate. Before this, the school district had no information on their whereabouts. The family has now been connected with a lawyer. Youngsters who escape a govt dungeon are the only way to track abducted children? This is fine!
- again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are his net worth is $253.2 billion. so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire and then do it again tomorrow and again the day after that and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months

- I hate billionaires. I revered the Washington Post. Today is a huge loss for journalism. America desperately needs watchdogs. But also why the fuck would anyone pay for what legacy media has become?
- Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power. They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

- This is NOT satire, but reads like one:
- Judge rules members of Congress can inspect all ICE detention centers without appointment. "...DHS Sec. Kristi Noem re-implemented a notice requirement…..[which] required 7-days’ warning for visits to [ICE] facilities... funded exclusively by the ‘Big Beautiful Bill’..." thehill.com/regulation/c...
- Ok but where is Pritzker?
- What should happen to anyone affiliated with ICE should be so extreme that abolition *is* the compromise
- “Ukraine fears it can’t rely on security guarantees from its allies in any potential peace deal, and so must be ready to stand alone as a “steel porcupine” to ensure that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin won’t return for another attack.”

- in order to save this country we are probably going to have to do things that make rich men sad 😔
- it does not however break my heart to say it
