The US Navy faces millions of dollars in extra costs each time it sends a destroyer through the waterway, and such passages on their own are unlikely to reopen it. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

These people suck. Somebody should encourage them to up the danger of their hobbies.

These people have so little dignity it is pathetic.

interesting: on page 3-4 of ABC's filing to the FCC they accuse the Carr agency of working with right wing non-ABC owned affiliates to concoct a scandal surrounding The View's decision to host James Talarico last February (I'll explain) www.fcc.gov/ecfs/documen...

is there any one fuckin person in this administration even remotely competent jesus fuckin christ

All of his clothing has as royal warrant.

Didn’t know you could fit a yeti cooler in a robe.

Average price of a new U.S. car is $50,000 … US car company CEOs saw record-high compensation in 2025, with leaders of major firms earning between $27 million and over $400 million

WHO STOPPED FUNDING THE FEDERALIST

"I drink Brass Monkey, and I rock well I got a castle in Brooklyn, that's where I dwell."

NEW: The Trump admin has launched moms.gov, featuring "resources, information, and help for new and expecting mothers." The first resource listed: anti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers, which appear next to or above federally qualified health centers, depending whether you're on desktop or mobile.

What awful fucking people. Also, this is the correct result. What the fuck. The only thing this shit does is punish people. It makes nobody's life any better. Also, the pauses started under Trump and the right wasn't objecting until they decided they should fuck everything up under Biden.

Now this, you love to see it: "According to The Righting, Outkick, The Federalist and The Blaze are down at least 48%."

Update: @adambonin.bsky.social got the answer. She’s the exec in charge of their hospital and medical research real estate.

I agree with the people booing. What I can’t figure out is how/why this person was invited in the first place. They aren’t an alum. They aren’t a high profile business person. It’s a rando who happens to be rich and, clearly, reads a lot of stupid shit.

two things. 1. when the trump administration says that something is “illegal DEI” they are saying “you don’t deserve this” 2. the practical effect of destroying the VRA is to make it nearly futile for these americans to get relief from congress

Seinfeld plot: gettin jiggy with it is mentioned on Seinfeld. But Newman booked Christopher Cross for the Newmanium.

An 18 yr old high school senior with no criminal record, working 40 hrs weekly—including late shift at Popeye’s. This is the type of hard working neighbor we need. Yet instead of graduation, he’s in detention thanks to Abbott & Trump.

Idiots can contain multitudes.

I just saw a gorgeous picture (limited edition print) earlier today by @anthonyhurd.bsky.social up on the wall of Killer Queen wine bar here in Durham

Eddie Vedder voice:

“The commencement ceremony was the culmination of a promise Smith made to his mother before choosing to forego college[.]”

He was a Whalers fan who thought the move to Carolina was wrong. I will always respect that.

Blue states & blue cities are keeping the country afloat. Red states can’t make it in their own, they have to rely on tax dollars from cities like Chicago to pay the bills.

J.R. Smith, college golfer.

"upper middle class" bitch idk what you think that means but it does not mean "second home in manhattan"

Obama tried to tell them this to their faces over and over and it didn’t take.

If you ever get the chance to observe how someone who claims to work 100 hours a week on their path to becoming a Managing Director then you should take that opportunity. You may find 100 hours of physical presence, you may find incredible crunch, you will not find 100 hours of labor

Damn. I gotta be brush maxing. I’m wasting the day away.

Goes hard. Seems appropriate. Dudes rock and they’re passing it on.

I think that the right wing Twitter algorithm is less effective when it comes to actually swaying political allegiances and more effective at making centrist pundit types think that right wing slop is way more effective than it actually is

My iron rule for an enjoyable experience here is blocking anyone who had anything close to a wayward comment directed against Stancil. He's built himself into an interactive reagent for brainworms. Not what he wanted, of course, but it's what he's done.

They like Trump and want him to win

These people are often extremely dumb — in addition to their maladjustment.

one thing about liz cheney is that despite the cheney name she actually did not ever do anything. like basically she was elected, spent her entire time in office opposed to trump, and then left office. she had the moral luck never to be tested on her worst principles.

Fuck off. Absolutely nothing Greene has done shows that she’s changed. She doesn’t give a shit about Palestinians, and you’re an absolute idiot if you think she does.

We have to convince educated, suburban southerners that being in the “white man’s party” is a dead end.

Happy Mother’s Day

One thousand percent. (The billing for the those events in WI-MI-PA: reproductive rights and democracy).

“As I rained blows upon him, I realized, there had to be another way”

This is the best measure your inseam tip I’ve ever seen.

I noticed that yesterday, too. Object permanence? What is it?

My latest @nytimes.com oped shows that the White House is dramatically understating the cost of the war in Iran. By my calculations—and I show my work—this war will cost the typical American family thousands, and it could cost them tens of thousands. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/05/08/o...

I legit think this is unfairly insulting to George Santos. Ogles is a stone cold monster.

It slides by too often but Ogles and Luna are total frauds. Luna just invented a new personality, the bio Ogles offered when he ran was shown to be totally fake. He’s a Southern fried George Santos.

The adoption of EVs in Africa is great & illustrates the insanity of US policy to push far more expensive ICE vehicles, which results in (1) people spending 20-40K more for fuel than electricity over 15y (2) US ceding vehicle market to other countries. Africa adopts EVs abcnews.com/Business/wir...

There is no more powerful argument against remaining on Twitter than seeing these dispatches from leftists you sort of recognize from ten years ago who don't realize they are morphing into Pat Buchanan
