the clown show that the WI Democratic Party establishment is now engaged in is emblematic of why exactly Fran Hong's campaign has caught on. They can't do ANYTHING effectively, even rat fuck their own primary.

Hard to comprehend the juicelessness and omnishambles of the non-Hong cohort of WI Dem gubernatorial candidates

and 8 days later Sara Rodriguez has dropped out (despite the Shepherd Express endorsement)

We need to add some menthol to the air too.

Good morning

"Tributes Pour In for Senator Lindsey Graham", then a dramatic blank space on the landing page of NYT.

Lindsay Graham was a bad person who made the world worse. A war monger & a bigot. The end.

FIFA is hilarious

On a municipal recycling cart which I have to say is fairly ironic

This must feel good as hell if you are Bam Adebayo

David Crowley dropping out & endorsing Rodriguez is his business. David Crowley explicitly saying other candidates should all drop out and get behind her at the press conference was weird but his business. The Journal Sentinel completely changing its story about what Crowley said is crazy.

It’s New Foods Day for the Minnesota State Fair and this, to me, is the promise of America www.mnstatefair.org/new/food

It’s the obvious safe move which is part of the reason his camp never caught on. No juice, no risk, no inspiration.

Hannah Dugan getting a $5k fine after that whole trial and no other penalty is going to keep Dan ODonnell and the Wis Right Now crew eating for weeks

DEATH TO VAR

Milwaukee Brewers win. Nation rejoices.

We absolutely deserved that.

US & Belgium recreating that “Japan national team v 200 10 year olds” match

not the point dan is making in this thread but we also need an investigation into this guy's eyebrow situation

unless it she's an anthropomorphized fruit engaged in an extra-marital affair with her boss, a muscular eggplant man, i'm not interested

i hope the next rich guy who gets tons of press by announcing he's going to live forever through quack medicine which inevitably kills him goes back to basics and drinks mercury

fun aspect of being washed / unc is hearing a song from new-to-you band and then later realzing its not actually a new-to-you band because one of their other songs was drilled into your head in a Geico commercial 20 years ago. Shout out norweigian edm band Royksopp.

There are so many fireworks in all directions

Bullshit framing aside a pretty solid profile of my next governor www.nytimes.com/2026/07/03/u...

Death to VAR

two days ago the story on Jaylen Brown coming out of Boston was that he was worth Giannis in a one for one swap and now the story is that he was a team cancer and malcontent who wasn't as good as Derrick White. The Boston tradition of slandering their departing stars is so awesome.

“Mexican Magnificence” is a great call for that goal

Italians used to come to this country for noble reasons like being in the Mafia instead of unsavory ones like being Samuel Alito's dad

Maybe trump will renominate Harriet Miers

WI Governor primary has been pretty sleepy so far, so I'm very interested / hopeful in what is going to happen as Fran Hong's profile gets raised in the national online left leaning fundraising circuit and attention economy

@francescahongwi.bsky.social lmao

Which way ,western man

do i think that lady should have been fired? no probably not but idk dumping out a full trash can onto the street is a highly antisocial behavior

I can’t believe the cornerstone piece coming back from the Bucks moving their best player of all time is Tyler Herro

theres significantly more ongoing discourse about the comic strip "Nancy" than I would have guessed growing up

the pundits will tell you starmer has no real accomplishments, but no one in british history has ever made a columnist write something this unhinged

The Flanders Press ass lead story from the local paper

Good fucking lord

i can't believe donald trump, who has used and then casually abandoned everyone he's ever met, is suddenly abandoning benjamin netanyahu and israel

It's pretty cool they turned the Reflecting Pool into the He-Man Slime Pit playset and now the blob from Creepshow 2 is living in there

thats nice for them but i'm at work providing shareholder value which is also pretty cool

The first time that Ronaldo has managed to get involved in the game, he intercepts a pass that would have set his teammate up for an easy goal and shoots it wide. It's performance art at this point.

Ronaldo whiffing two golden opportunities? So sad!
