“I know Andrew is a good man who’s been treated terribly, but you remember when we learned a few minutes ago that England and the United States are two different countries?” said Senior Advisor Gerald Donovan

Or we could tear it down and just not replace it. ICE serves no real purpose, it's only useful for racist violence and, I know this is a hot take, maybe we should not do that.

JFC this guy was everywhere. He's like the Forrest Gump of Crimes Against Humanity.

How do you organize safely and effectively in the golden age of surveillance? I have some thoughts and Wired does too: www.wired.com/story/how-to...

The least surprising news I have heard since discovering that Nick Fuentes is a virgin.

The concentration camps will not only be for immigrants, documented or otherwise. They already aren't. They won't only be for brown and Black people. The targets will keep expanding. It will not end. The only way it will is if we stop it. Both in and out of the system. There is no other way.

At this point, MAGA is just the party of nazi pedophiles. There’s no getting around it, no reforming it, no pretending it’s about anything else. This is who they are, and always will be.

We built Jikipedia, a new wiki that compiles Jmail data into exhaustive reports on key figures in the Epstein scandal. It lists all recorded visits to Epstein's estates, each person's possible knowledge of Epstein's crimes and laws that they may have violated.

Roses are red Gender is performative I wish Valentines Day wasn't So heteronormative

Thinking about the time Leonid Brezhnev had a stroke, and then continued to rule the USSR for 6 more years, in which time he barely knew where he was or what was happening.

Huge scandal that Minneapolis has been crawling with terrorists this whole time. They've been living among us undercover as poets and nurses. And would've continued to, had it not been for the work of our bravest child kidnappers

Speaking as someone who tames hungry ghosts for a living, this is highly accurate.

Time is a flat circle

"It’s disgusting and, frankly, counterproductive to point out that I voted for this. To imply that I had personal free will and agency when I walked into a voting booth and picked Mayor Bomberman is insulting." #McSweeneysTop20of2025

When people say they're excited for 2026

"New year, new me" says my clone, as he shovels my body into the incinerator

Nobody ever lost any money by underestimating the intelligence of the American public.

Here’s to 2026

post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or alice in chains.

it's crazy that 500 years ago, you would see the ruler of your country maybe once in your life and hear whispers that they're the Sun God, but now with social media, you get to see on a daily basis that they're the most unhinged, idiotic, and unhappy person you know

If the Christmas carol movies have taught me anything, its that the true meaning of christmas is terrorizing rich people until they learn how to share

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

There needs to be a word for "the least surprising face." This is like nominative determinism for faces. The face that launched a thousand restraining orders.

There have been some amazing parodies of Star Wars and almost no parodies of Dune. And, I mean, come on. "Spice Balls" is right there.

This entire weekend

Accusations of hypocrisy have never once been successful against right wingers in any context but especially in this particular context of child abuse. This is a very cogent explanation as to why and I wish everyone understood it.

Democrats Sick Of Being Blamed For Cowardice On Issues They Actually Just Don’t Care About

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

the only thing that delivers disappointment more reliably than divorced dad cooking is the Democratic party

Of all the dystopian futures I’ve read in fiction, I can’t tell you how upsetting it is that Transmetropolitan continues to be the most prophetic. Spider Jerusalem was talking about toilet cams almost 30 years ago and I am so mad that wasn’t just a bit.

"To be a Republican in 2025 represents a clear public confession that you either don't know the difference between good and evil and you're so morally empty that you can't be bothered to begin to try, or that you do know the difference, and you prefer evil." www.the-reframe.com/the-crime-of...

I wrote about a new Nazi party that seeks to criminalize all human virtue, and how that means that human virtue is the greatest weapon against the new Nazi project. www.the-reframe.com/the-crime-of...

Pundits 15 years ago: of course rich people don't want us all ground into nutritional paste for their pets Pundits today: it's time for us to have a serious conversation about whether we should be ground into nutritional paste for rich people's pets

All this rage was once hope

"A nation consists of its laws. A nation does not consist of its situation at a given time. If an individual's morals are situational, that individual is without morals. If a nations laws are situational, that nation has no laws, and soon isn't a nation." - William Gibson, Zero History

INTERVIEWER: As you know, we are a nation beset by myriad horrors. What are you doing to fight back? SCHUMER: I have been reaching out to the horrors, many of which are friends, in hopes of working together on this for all Americans. You demand we descend into hell? Well ok, but let's do it right.

In 1936, Walter Benjamin characterized Europe as a society whose “self-alienation has reached such a degree that it can experience its own destruction as an aesthetic pleasure of the first order.” But he also warned that “all efforts to render politics aesthetic culminate in one thing: war.”

Remember how lefties used to say "abolish ICE" back in the 2010s, and got roundly scolded by the centrists for it ever since, and now events have shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that they were 1000% on the correct side of history, but somehow they're still being scolded? Fun.

here's 17 year old incel thurston brandypimple to lecture you on the importance of traditional masculinity. in his spare time he collects doilies and lynching post cards. he just received a $2b endowment from peter thiel's committee to blow up schools with cruise missiles.

Democratic Senator Melchet has an inspirational message for us about the new DNC strategy.

the modal domestic terrorist over the next decade is going to be a terminally online 20-something who cooks their brain in irony-poisoned social media spaces and decides to kill a bunch of people as an elaborate shitpost

Nailed it. No notes.

Since the phrase “Banana Republic” is getting thrown around a lot lately, it seems worth pointing out that Banana Republics are literally created by America. They don’t just happen, they are the direct result of US fruit companies backed by US military and CIA. Colonialism always comes home to roost
