Trump's not pardoned his best. He's pardoning people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/04/u...

Ossoff: I don’t know if you saw, but JD Vance was in Georgia this week. Don’t worry—no one showed up. The stadium was empty.

I took action with Jon Ossoff for Senate today in Augusta, GA. Will you join me? Use this link to sign up: www.mobilize.us/electjon/eve...

“If a government’s actions in a democracy require masks — if the people being governed in that democracy cannot know who is acting — that is a problem with what the government is doing, not with the governed.”

Trump is now calling for “nationalizing” the midterms. “Call me alarmist, but remember: The alarmists have been right, and the people telling us to calm down have been wrong, every step of the way.” https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/american-democracy-will-not-die-in

@davidpierce.xyz you were probably quipping when you said “great timing, because all my AirTag batteries are dying” — JIC… you know you can replace the battery in AirTags, right?

What's next, a sliding "Truthiness" scale?? Can I pay extra and get ChatGPT to tell me the election is rigged? Until recently a Pro subscriber, I'm done with OpenAI. #ICEOUT Cc: @samaltman.bsky.social

Rest in peace, @dhm.bsky.social Dan McQuade. We never met, but I knew and admired your writing. You helped me see things I would most certainly have missed. You were the epitome of Philadelphianess.

Noem and Miller must resign. Now. ICE must be defunded. Now. Witness the corruption and lies. youtube.com/watch?v=1AW9...

@plante.bsky.social Just listened to the latest episode of Besties. Thanks for articulating the elements that made Avowed one of my favorite games of the year.

Based on EPA data, per 1M vehicles with "annoying start-stop feature": • Fuel saved: 24–48 million gallons • Money saved: $84M–$168M (at $3.50/gal) • CO₂ avoided: 0.21–0.43M tons Assumes typical driving (12k mi/yr, 25 mpg) and a 5–10% fuel reduction from start-stop. CO₂ per gallon ≈ 8.9 kg.

@beauschwartz.com For all his strengths, we all know Scot is not a fount of (accurate) facts. Danny Devito is 4ft, 10in.

Speaking truth. Thank you @clarajeffery.bsky.social

@beauschwartz.com I’m also watching (most of) the Aliens films right now to get ready for Alien: Earth. Pumped. I always enjoy a Noah Hawley jawn.

Friends, our democracy is at risk. We need all the allies we can get. Coalitions require compromise to move the ball forward. Stop throwing people under the bus because of purity tests.

There is always a tweet.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

Wanna know who knows games? @plante.bsky.social Check out his new jawn at postgame.substack.com?r=94r&utm_ca...

MAGA's Newspeak use of "anti-DEI" targets civil rights protections just as their faux "anti-semitism" campaign targets free speech. And their virulent anti-immigrant hatred/party of Christian values posturing is pure doublethink. Happy Easter, George Orwell!

Amen. You cannot disappear people off American streets.

From the great American hero judge Michael Luttig “Judge Boasberg doesn’t want to assume the role of president; the president wants to assume the role of judge.”

@gruber.foo I’m a reader and enjoyer since your first post on Daring Fireball in 2002. Thank you and please, please keep at it with posts like the link below. Don’t let anyone’s “stick to your lane” moaning bullshit slow you down. daringfireball.net/2025/01/ice_...

I'm screaming. *Now* the #BrokenTimes calls the economy "remarkable" and reports on Trump's threats to it. Before the election, they were shouting about the price of eggs.

Sometimes the combination of arrogance and ignorance is breathtaking. Yes, US health care has high admin costs; that's because it relies so much on private insurers. Govt-run health insurance has much lower overhead

Imagine if we did this on January 7th

In politics clarity is its own opportunity. The storm of the 2024 election has created great clarity. The richest man in the world, Elon Musk, and 3rd richest man in the world, Jeff Bezos, are currently asking a group of Trump judges to end the right to organize & join a union in the United States.
