*Simpsons meme*: I was saying we should do austerity

They're calling it the most obvious stroke of all time

She had to have known the reaction this would elicit, which means she's gearing up for a right wing media career (she is 34 and has played less than 100 minutes total across the last 3 seasons) www.nbcnews.com/sports/socce...

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE MUST CREDIT: Lunch for jurors in the “sandwich guy” trial are a variety of sandwiches, according to a source familiar with lunch.

FWIW this was a Novo Nordisk executive, not a Trump admin guy

*man passes out* Onlooker: thank goodness! The person in charge of American healthcare is here! RFK Jr: first of all who here is circumcised?

I can excuse misogyny but I draw the line at the demonization of corporations and private equity (h/t AlanMCole@x)

Jeff Yass just needs to say the word

I wrote for @slate.com about a legendary (and violent) Tennessee sheriff who more likely than not murdered his wife and the people who want to keep him on a pedestal. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Morgan was formerly Ben Sasse's Chief of Staff, btw

Reporting this story, I heard near universal concern from Heritage staff of discrimination against unmarried women. Then I obtained a letter to the Heritage board from anonymous staffers that alleged the same thing — and more. Heritage is aware that alleged behavior could create legal trouble.

Helen Andrews nee Rittelmeyer has been a deranged troll ever since she was pitching me slavery as a positive good nearly 20 years ago

This actually got the Republican share mostly correct but underestimated the Democrat by a large amount. Embarrassing!

This has an extremely misinformed view of how much the Editor At Large for Contretemps makes

I'm only seeing snippets of this but like, we all know the three point line is in different places for different basketball leagues, right like men in high school, NBA, college/international all use different lines not a gender thing

I have a lot of respect for Leah (and some for Ross, and none for Helen) but I can't help but notice this "conversation" is three people who've ~never worked in either a traditional corporate environment or a working class job talking about women in the workplace.

Next Evan is gonna say it conflicts with his faith to attend a wedding in Cana

My mother was the breadwinner in the family, first to get a college degree in the family, and when she was pregnant with me her boss came into her office, told her that she'd never be the same accountant again, and fired her on the spot. That was in nineteen eighty two

100% correct. The Dem ads about Trump weren't just "orange man bad." They were: I'm focused on lowering costs while my GOP opponent is serving Trump, who is raising costs with tariffs, canceling infrastructure, etc.

It's clearly a case of multiple conflicting agendas in this white house with no unifying mission. Not sure whose goal this one is but it's probably whoever wants to break down the last bit of resistance in the senate

This is Rita Glavin, Cuomo's personal attorney

Gen Z has a hard time contextualizing how aberrant Trump is because he's been the focal point of US politics for a decade at this point. Like I have a bunch of fully adult coworkers who don't really have much political consciousness that predates 2015.

LISA McCLAIN: Voter turnout from Republicans was not high. But I think part of that reason is because Republicans for the most part are happy with what's happening TAPPER: Using that argument, your voters could be so happy that Democrats retake the House next year

Why are we trying to liberate Venezuela when we haven't even liberated Cuba yet

Amortization of basis difference?

My old ass when I realize there's a 10pm Spurs/Lakers game the night after I stayed up electionposting

The fact that a lot of leftists despise Parks and Rec - one of the best and most sympathetic depictions of non-cop government in modern media - is a symptom of the fact that a lot of the left has no idea how to actually implement the policy proposals they want to enact.

Yeah, this issue is salient when you portray your opponent as obsessed with it.

Anyway I continue to think the nuclear block sucks. Guy spent all morning ranting at me about how Mamdani is bad for sharing a consultant with Platner and then blocked me and played the victim to his followers, who can now no longer see the full convo to learn the truth.

This is one of those "asylum" level mixups imo.

"Take Pakistan (who his mom is accused of being an apologist for)"

accusing Zohran’s famous Hindu mother of advocating for Pakistan’s right to oppress all non-Muslims is some galaxy brain nonsense.

Has anyone figured out the root of Trump's belief that "groceries" is an "old-fashioned word"? He says it all the fucking time and it's so weird.

Paying people $12 to vote Democrat isn't illegal if Trump's doing it

"Conservative Inc is a house of scolding nags" lmao these losers just hate whoever's telling them to eat their vegetables.

Fed. judge issues TRO to address constitutional deficiencies in ICE detention facility in Broadville, Illinois. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

absolutely baffling. grammarly... has more or less always been an AI company?

how you should feel about this depends on what exactly the role is, but I would say that Khan did not exit the FTC with a reputation as an organizational savant

My thread for my not-so-live skeet of the tariff arguments. /1

She can't win. She can't win the primary.

He is noticeably slurring and dropping the ends of words here

Who else got their Soros checks in the mail today

We're entering The Zone.

This makes sense since diversity through immigration has been the foundation for American identity for many generations. Like our most identifiable landmark is a giant "immigrants welcome" statue. For Britain it's either an inscrutable rock formation or the big clock that Peter Pan lands on

Oh boy. This was an emergency measure. bsky.app/profile/paul...

so our polling was showing like 1-2% win in Bergen and we weren't *that* far off, (like 51-48% was what I was ballparking on monday), it's still a substantial polling miss but what really ended up happening is Sherrill just BTFO'd the GOP everywhere else in the state, she STOMPED in Essex & Hudson

[P] Found a higher-quality photo; IT *IS* TAPED UP SHEETS OF PAPER!

I'm looking forward to the smug 'everyone knew' articles about Trump's mental health

The difference between an inside straight and a straight is very large!!!! Can we like at least upgrade them to like drawing to two overs first?
