Bad Bunny just gifted us the best halftime show performance in recent memory, and the best statement to meet the moment that I've ever seen

Trump's meltdown over Bad Bunny is really about this -->

I for one welcome Woke Elmo with open arms.

i just saw someone say "Kid Rock makes music for the people who have tattoos of their kids but not custody" and hol up i need a minute

i think people mad about bad bunny’s performance have never been forced to consider that not everything is for you

Because context is everything, a "flags of the Americas" display accompanied by a "love over hate" message packs an emotional punch. Unremarkable to generations of elementary schoolers. But in 2026, it's either rage-inducing or liable to make the adults cry.

Pre or post-game newsletter from me: Everything about Jeffrey Epstein is maddening. Especially how much I missed, even though it was hidden in plain sight. Also, we have to talk about QAnon again. www.altrightdelete.news/p/qanon-help...

all Dems should join Massie in demanding Luttnick resign

Conservatives when a performer says something like "Be kind to each other"

Being able to see their emails makes something very clear: The “anti-woke” movement was not a genteel intellectual inquiry, made by disinterested parties who cared deeply about free speech. It is a social circle of powerful people who feel threatened by #MeToo. www.theverge.com/tech/874721/...

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Two months ago I wrote a story spelling out how the on the ground tactics of activists and neighbors worked.

Warner: "There is a very real threat without reforms at ICE that you could have ICE patrols around polling stations. And people say, 'Why would that matter if they're all American citizens?' We've seen ICE discriminate against Latinos ... you don't need to do a lot to discourage people from voting"

What *about* that 5-year-old US citizen? Finish the sentence, Congressman. What does that hypothetical child have to do with Liam Ramos? Spell it out. Don’t just say “but what about our kids” and stop there. Explain your logic.

“It’s illegal not to like me” part ♾️ bsky.app/profile/jake...

I am not claiming ICE doesn’t exist anymore. I am stating that it is more difficult to cover it on the ground for a number of reasons, including less agents, the tactics of the community to prevent raids, and an apparently smaller frequency of “papers please” stops of pedestrians.

wrt to some of the replies to this post, part of why the media has “moved on” is because it has become extraordinarily difficult to document ICE activity on the ground, outside of them arresting citizens.

Today I wrote about the racist accommodation to the racist response to Bad Bunny's Super Bowl show; the moral hazard of extending good faith to those who act in bad faith; and how alienating white bigots is actually part of the solution, not a part of the problem. www.the-reframe.com/hating-the-g...

I disagree with Congressman Gonzales that 5-year-old American citizen children are helped in any way by their kindergarten classmates being kisbnapped and disappeared by marked, armed thugs.

I don't use the word "woke" myself, but given what the pricks who've appropriated the term seem to mean by it, "uber-woke, net zero, rejoinerism" sounds good to me. Social liberalism, environmental protection, internationalism. Shame a party with MPs that say things like that won't do those things.

Friends in Minneapolis are very worried about this development. Both in terms of state police's role in arresting protestors and the worry that this could set off the kind of spiral of distrust and destruction that followed George Floyd's murder. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/07/u...

If the White House's official explanation is that a staffer was responsible for that racist Obama post, then that staffer should be identified and fired. I won't forget the people whose careers were ruined and lives threatened bc of Charlie Kirk posts. www.foxcarolina.com/2025/09/11/u...

We must fight this with everything we’ve got.

Please, tell us again about how ICE goon squads are TOTALLY different from cops.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

I can see why you would say so. But, just as Scott is fighting for Ramona, so Stancil is fighting for liberal democracy. Just as Scott's world is built, at some fundamental level, so he cannot have a normal thing, a girlfriend, without a series of hilariously undermotivated fights with weirdos ...

I’d probably be ok but I simply do not want to die because a spotless Childcrusher 5000 GTX pickup truck driven by a moron squashed me on my bicycle, id be so fucking mad

Two things the Epstein Files show us: 1) Billionaires must be taxed out of existence. 2) Money must be severely regulated in politics.

Who's at the epicenter of the Epstein files?

Otay Mesa "Detention Center" (prison camp) in San Diego, CA: lataco.com/captive-loti...

crickets from the free speech crowd, of course

this guy sounds like a real piece of shit

“The Epstein class” is a keeper.

About 200 gathered at an unveiling of a snow sculpture denouncing ICE in Minneapolis’ East Isles neighborhood. The sculpture, originally to be exhibited as Team USA’s entry to a competition in Stillwater, was destroyed because organizers believed it made a political statement, according to MPR.

This is called getting Higgs'd.

This regime is putting more time and money into deporting a five year old than protecting the hundreds of children harmed by Epstein & those around him. Liam Ramos is a target because he represents hope. The Epstein predators are getting a pass because they have money & power.

LOL no that man did not just quit his job after decimating the paper. Mmmmm.

He was brought in to gut the post and turn it into right wing slop and now that he has, he's leaving with a mission accomplished.

Keep pushing Norm.

The blame also lies with the clout chaser apologists who tell fact checkers to stop ruining everyone’s fun or tell people it doesn’t matter if popular posts are actually lies or who cares. Facts actually matter!! Even when the lies reinforce your belief system!!!!! bsky.app/profile/kevi...

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”
