I finally dug into this, and, man, this is literally a two-hour video about there being too many Indians youtu.be/ralf0yL1Tfw?...

Thomas isn’t going anywhere voluntarily. www.nytimes.com/1993/11/27/u...

People on here don't realize that reading Israeli media on its own terms can radicalize you just as much as anything else against Zionism. The vast majority of quotes I see coming out of Channels 12 and 13 are from security officials whining that Lebanese villagers are allowed to go home.

NEW: Meta co-sponsored a celebration with the Daily Wire for podcaster Isabel Brown, who often foments about Islam and wants to "save the West," which is an interesting, cocktail-party-level look at the company's rightward pivot www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

this is where I come down for a huge proportion of the vibecession debate. Bidenomics was superb on the traditional indicators, but he also oversaw a near total withdrawal of the most generous welfare state in US history. most of that wasn’t his fault, but still

Fascinating paragraph from Scott Alexander, where he admits he’s the dog that caught the car

As a desi, I’m fascinated by the Indians who caped hard for Trump. Many of them seem to have felt insulated by their wealth and success—the “model minority”—only to now realize that a lot of MAGA hates them. @ashwinrodrigues.com reports: www.wired.com/story/maga-i...

I pay every penny I owe in taxes, but I must say that this year really felt like a gut-punch on account of all the illegal shit that the federal government is doing with our hard-earned money

Chuck Schumer's two votes tonight in favor of bombs and bulldozers to Israel is yet another reason Senate Democrats must vote to remove him as leader post the midterms.

Yes, please!!! gothamist.com/news/here-co...

I don't think enough people in my timeline are aware of this little bit of what the actual fuck from Bessent yesterday, who truly is an absolute lunatic

top left vs bottom right

JD Vance PR team really getting their moneys worth from American papers. Blatant propaganda.

1. The filing deadline is passed 2. A Republican hasn't won statewide in CA in 2 decades 3. Tom Steyer's going to spend like $100M on this race 4. HOW WERE YOU EVER PAID TO TALK ABOUT POLITICS????

Highly recommend Saguaro National Park and the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. Even the saguaro skeletons are cool!

Good summary of Keynesianism imo

New: A surge in calls among Democrats to pursue Trump’s impeachment is hitting a wall with party leaders, who believe it will distract from their midterm focus on costs and corruption, according to interviews with over a dozen Democrats. Some also view 25th Amendment as a nonstarter

The world's least convincing tough guy

This is real

NEW: Trump accepted $37m worth of donated steel for his WH ballroom project from the Luxembourg-based company ArcelorMittal. Days later, the WH made adjustments to Trump's tariffs that could benefit ArcelorMittal.

As a research project, I built a needed tool with Claude Code. I though it would be a disaster, but It wasn't. I have some complicated feelings about it.

Two books I'd recommend pre-ordering this morning. @bhgreeley.bsky.social has written a history of the dollar (pub in May). And @robinwigglesworth.ft.com just announced a history of bonds (pub in Sept). Links: www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/634502... www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/750210...

Please gird yourself for months of shameless self-promotion, mute me on socials, feel free to avoid me in public etc, because my next book — A Fabulous Debt: The Epic Story of How Bonds Built the Modern World — is now available for pre-orders. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/750210...

here it is. one single picture that perfectly captures why we have a housing crisis. it’s not blackrock. it’s not the developers. it’s the boomers who will yell at any politician who wants to build more housing

No one who voted for the Laken Riley Act deserves a promotion because they showed themselves to have terrible judgment and to not be worthy of deeper trust. www.huffpost.com/entry/democr...

beautiful

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

Sorry but in what world has Trump been "intently focused on making sure Iran never had the nuclear fuel in hand to build a nuclear weapon," let alone for the last decade? He withdrew from the JCPOA to spite Obama, and because it was what every Republican wanted him to do.

congrats to the worm man. you did it. and i hope people remember your name.

Over and over we're getting these court rulings saying something Trump did months ago was blatantly illegal. I'm not sure what the fix for that is, or if there even is one, but it's yet another major vulnerability in our system

NEW: Grubhub subcontracted deliveriers to Relay in order to avoid paying workers the city's minimum pay standard for all of its orders.

Fuck Kagan, fuck Sotomayor, make Jackson president

So, you're telling me I have another ~20 years?

"he's fully trained on the publication bias literature" "He and I worked back and forth on this" "he also threw me under the bus and was like "yeah you were wrong". Lol, I was like, NO WE WERE WRONG." (Actually, bro, you were wrong. "He" is not a he, and you were "talking" to a computer.)

The way the Iranians are trying to use the market against Trump is just wild. It is a real weak spot!

The NYT says today’s #NoKings protests had “no shortage of skeptics,” and then quoted exactly one of those skeptics: The chairman of the Ole Miss College Republicans (as of 2025.) But of course, the Times doesn’t ID him as such. He’s just a Concerned Youth.

Slotkin is so gross with her "what works in the middle of the country will work on the coasts, but not in reverse" bullshit

Find the coverage of massive protests challenge.

Huzzah

Yitzhak Kroizer, Israeli MK and member of Israel's governing coalition, defends the summary execution of two Palestinian children by Israeli soldiers who shot them in the head: "in Jenin, there are no innocent civilians. In Jenin, there are no innocent children."

they like trump and want to help him rule over us. so you set the narrative to dismiss the impact of protests (contrast to promotion of much-smaller anti-lockdown or "truckers convoy" protests)

NYT quoting AOC when she says “um”: This dumb girl can’t talk NYT quoting Trump after sticking a fork up his nose into his brain and rambling about sharpie pens: Doth thine lion howl with instincts known not learned by man, or sound his sonorous roar as prophecy to gaze back upon history itself?

Brendan Carr: “Look at the results so far — PBS defunded, NPR defunded, Joy Reid gone from MSNBC, Sleepy Eye Chuck Todd gone, Jim Acosta gone, John Dickerson gone, Colbert is leaving, CBS is under new ownership — & soon enough CNN is going to have new ownership as well” #NoKings protest tomorrow 🤘🏼

2021 Republicans: How dare tech companies talk to government about moderating speech!!! We’ll create a whole false narrative about it and take it all the way to the Supreme Court! 2025 Republicans: We run things now so

I hate it here.

How can this go on for another 3 years?

Trump: I’m going to put ICE in the airports, where they will target and arrest all the illegals, especially Somalis, because I hate the Democrats Headlines: Trump puts ICE officers in airports to ease long lines, provide relief for weary travelers
