10th Amendment says what

The party of small government and free speech absolutism sure seem to be triggered by lots of words.

Hear me out. Maybe it’s three ghosts of cognitive tests visiting him in the night.

The freak out when Michelle said this…

This current admin is full of trash.

I swear if this affects the horny hockey show…

An entire room full of powerful old white people smiling and laughing as the president dehumanizes black immigrants and the first black president. Just fucking pathetic.

Really ties all the threads together, this one

Do podcasts have sweeps week episodes? Because I’m pretty sure this Nuzzi/Lizza is just a @thepressbox.bsky.social plot.

this would have been a month-long scandal in 2011

This used to be called "corruption" and "bribery", maybe even "extortion".

Everyone does know what's going on here, right? Should the Epstein evidence bill pass both the House and Senate, these criminals will say it can't be released because there is an active investigation. Never mind that a thorough investigation was completed, and the DOJ was prepared to try Epstein.

Somehow this SCOTUS will find partisan gerrymandering by legislatures legal and an expression of voters will, but gerrymandering by ballot initiative an illegal act.

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

What the f*** is up with all the commas?

America 2025

probably something an innocent man would do

I’d started to wonder whether the Epstein files were a bit of a macguffin, but no no they implicate the President of the United States in a pedophilia ring—and show the entire Republican Party as well as much of the federal government has been baldly covering it up. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I feel like this point is weirdly under-discussed in the discourse! Acosta himself approved Epstein's notorious sweetheart non-prosecution agreement. By elevating Acosta to the cabinet later, Trump seemed to ... pretty clearly reward that?

If Biden did this they’d say it was a sign he was so sleepy he couldn’t find the office.

Normal People Don’t Want This Shit is running away with the vote tonight

Louisiana — the red state that Mike Johnson nominally represents — has the second highest percentage of residents enrolled in SNAP in the nation. They’re pushing this fantasy about these being “Democrat programs” used only in blue states but that’s a PR fantasy divorced from reality.

Just as a reminder: New York is a donor state and massively so.

Is it wrong I’m excited for the eventual @strictscrutiny.bsky.social reading of this?

Expected to be disappointed and still disappointed. Life of a Steelers fan.

Yes it’s true. My Halloween costume is the 2006 Time's Person of the Year.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Entire government is an extortion racket.

It’s not his house. It’s your house. And he’s destroying it.

Wow. Sidney Reid, the DC woman just found not guilty of assaulting an FBI agent, issues a withering and gutsy statement on Trump through her attorneys. "I feel sorry for the prosecutors really, who must be burdened by Trump's irrational and unfounded hatred for his fellow man." It's a must-read:

A dark batch of headlines tonight. @wsj.com @nytimes.com @axios.com @politico.com

I seem to recall that it was the biggest 1st Amendment attack in American history when the Biden admin alerted social media companies to some content and said "hey does this violate your policies?" Will Matt Taibbi, Michael Shellenberger and (lol) CBS News Editor in Chief Bari Weiss call this out?

And even as they control the levers of power they must remain the victim. So they just pull out a long list of “slights”

“Who was president in 2020?” remains one of the most pertinent questions in American politics—absurd, yes, but here we are—and that extends to “who was president January 1 - 19, 2021?”

So, Tom Homan can straight accept a bag of $50K in cash from the FBI in a sting operation, have the investigation dismissed by this corrupt Justice Department, but all of Trump's critics somehow face indictments? Cool, cool. Cool. A desperate, weak Administration overplaying its hand.

All his “sleepy joe” critiques were projections.

And remind his minions that just because the Supreme Court gave their mentally addled leader immunity, they can and will be held accountable.

If you come for my people, you come through me.

Supreme Court on banning gender-affirming care for trans youth: Sure, that's fine, no constitutional violation. Supreme Court on banning so-called conversion therapy for gay youth: No, can't have that, grave constitutional violation. Here, Ketanji Brown Jackson gets to the bottom of it:

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. trib.al/9Sxu9IN

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

Remember when it was a national scandal on the right that the White House pushed to take down a few tweets?

1. This is one of the most insane statements ever delivered by a presidential spokesperson in U.S. history. Totally disconnected from reality. 2. There is either going to be a civil war or abject Democratic surrender to autocracy. They are telling this you, to your face, in explicit terms.

Very Trump-era story. 1. The sword has no meaning for Charles, but matters for the Eisenhower Museum. 2. Illegal for the museum to give away US property! 3. Trump makes no distinction between personal/public property. 4. The person who did the right thing was fired. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/a...

And he’s not even a drag queen.

To mark this occasion, I will disconnect my internet connection to answer a phone call.
