Vought holds one of the most powerful jobs in D.C., and he’s used his position to wage a quiet war to change the shape of the entire U.S. government. Here's what you should know about Trump’s shadow president.

remember that any senator not loudly calling for Schumer's head is happily playing their part in his Kabuki theater 'resistance' and is your enemy as much as he is

I don't know how to get people to read this article, but I really think many more should.

"Funnily enough Andy [Wigmore], the only time I ever experienced political interference in one of my investigations at the BBC, was when I was investigating you and Arron Banks Your mate Robbie Gibb put a stop to a story we were running." - former BBC investigative reporter Manveen Rana, 2022

Robbie Gibb who cancelled a BBC investigation into Farage's Leave dot EU campaign shortly before the EU Ref Arron Banks thanked him for it "Robbie Gibb is being quite helpful and says he’s trying to hose it down." - @channel4news.bsky.social in 2019

It took a courageous Republican bucking his party to give America affordable healthcare and eight cowardous Democrats bucking their party to take it away.

Yes, absolutely there is an impartiality crisis at the BBC. But it's not the one the billionaire media insists it is. novaramedia.com/2025/06/16/b...

A group of Democrats and one Democratic-aligned independent have helped clinch an agreement to end the government shutdown, saying they had secured a vote on the Affordable Care Act subsidies at the center of the standoff. Here's a look at some of those members: https://cnn.it/3WIOLip

Ro Khanna calls for Schumer‘ ouster

I just want to say, randomly, that a pardon is an acknowledgment of guilt. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment still exists. Anyone in office who is also technically covered by this pardon is eligible for Section 3 of the 14th amendment.

Trump pardons top allies who aided bid to subvert the 2020 election

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

Tonight was a very bad night.

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

Mamdami is going to implement aria law. Everyone will have to communicate in full-throated solo songs.

i was also struck by how many people receiving SNAP are employees of wal-mart and other big corporations. almost seems like we taxpayers are subsidizing private companies 🤔

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

We’ve got less than 2% of philanthropy going to the environment and less than 1% of government funding going to the environment. It’s incredible that so many people think that we should protect the environment, but we shouldn’t do anything actively to protect it.” www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

Black women in America are more than twice as likely as white women to have a stillbirth. Getting physicians to take their concerns seriously is one reason for this disparity, they say: “If you’re a Black woman, you get dismissed.” (Published Dec. 2022)

Mamdani's line that billionaires spent more to oppose his candidacy than he proposed to tax them really says it all. Like a company that shuts down a profitable location as soon as it unionizes. The principle of maintaining control is more important.

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

Mamdani has shown considerable self-control in the face of some quite horrific tantrums. Self-control imo is the quality modern masculinity is most sorely in need of.

TAKEN AT HER COURT HEARING. To all those Americans deceiving themselves that ICE is only going after rapists and murderers, another reminder that’s a lie. They are targeting folks doing the right thing, because it is easier and otherwise they don’t have enough people to arrest. Wake up now.

Och det är fortfarande olagligt.

Avslöjande: Medan andra regeringschefer är i Brasilien på FN-toppmöte om den globala klimatkrisen, har Ulf Kristersson valt att resa till Tallin på Timbro-konferens under ledning av PR-byrån Bellbirds vd Anders Kempe och PR-byrån Kreabs vice ordförande Carl Bildt

More than $8 million from Mike Bloomberg. $3 million from Airbnb's co-founder. $3 million from the Estée Lauder family. $2 million from Bill Ackman. $1 million from DoorDash. $200K from Walmart's heiress. Zohran didn't just beat Andrew Cuomo. He beat the elite.

EXPOSED: ICE agents grabbed a father by the neck in Fitchburg, Massachusetts — sending him into a violent seizure while his arms locked around his toddler. “He’s having a seizure and they’re trying to rip the baby out of his hands!” Agents then handcuffed him before putting him in an ambulance.

Olagligt, olagligt, och fortfarande olagligt. employment-social-affairs.ec.europa.eu/policies-and...

Vår värdelösa regering.

Det här är väldigt olagligt, se arbetstidsdirektivet.

The most corrupt administration in American history.

Jag läste en rätt intressant intervju med Timbros vd PM Nilsson där han kallade välfärdsföretagen påverkan på svensk politik en ”konspirationsteori”. Jag skrev lite om det. Ni får gärna läsa! www.dn.se/kultur/johan...

Regeringschefer när någon kollapsar i rummet

“My male colleague is loudly and publicly declaring that he shouldn’t have to work with women” seems like the kind of thing that New York City’s very robust workplace civil rights law might have something to say about lol

If I was working at the Times (would never happen lol) I would be talking to my women colleagues and perhaps outside counsel about whether this constitutes a Title VII violation.

Really tragic that the left intellectual class is so hostile to feminism because misogyny has turned out to be a pretty important feature of our age actually lol

Should women be hated as witches or patronized as overgrown children? The paper of record debates the two available options.

I don't know who this guy is, but I certainly hope he is okay. That was hard to watch. I also want to agree with those who noted how bizarre it is that Robert F. Kennedy Jr., seeing a tragedy unfold before him, hauled ass out of the room like George Costanza during a fire. What a nauseating man.

SCOTUS has granted a stay in Trump v. Orr, the trans passport case, meaning that the government will be able to once again deny gender marker changes to trans passport applicants. This is a terrible decision with horrifying consequences for trans folks. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

LOBBYKLÄGGET. Förra veckan bjöd statsministern nätläkarföretaget Kry på fin lobbymiddag i Sagerska palatset. En lobbykultur har brett ut sig och blivit ”vadagsmat i Bananrepubliken”…👇🏼 klagget.nu/2025/11/05/l...

Mamdani elected, Dick Cheney dead… I don't know who found the lamp, but I have suggestions for the third wish.

who would have guessed that the dumbass who won the popular vote by a sliver because median voters just thought of him as President Low Prices Who Will Make Low Prices Comes Back in January would be eating shit like this, after not solving any problems and kidnapping many defenseless people for fun
