oh boy do I have a horrifying patent for you to read

This was perhaps the ultimate presidency-ending scandal when Joe Biden made the exact same, simple transposition mistake during what was otherwise a lengthy and detailed conversation about foreign affairs at a 2024 NATO summit.

Imagine waking up in Japan to news that you are now an Islamic Republic.

Russian networks have already flooded the web with content designed to corrupt AI training data. Gerald Mako (Cambridge) writes that agentic AI makes this threat far worse — and Brussels is still playing catch-up.

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte "You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

THEY MADE CARTER SELL HIS FARM

Remember when Biden called Zelensky “Putin” ONCE and it was a headline on every news site?

Racists

Every Republican who says they’ve “spoken” to Mitch McConnell claims to have had a suspiciously identical 20-minute call covering Iran, Ukraine, Maine, and Senate history.

Serious question: Does the president not know what’s in the deal he made with Iran? There are no nuclear concessions in the MOU Trump signed. He is a serial liar and would overstate any gains, but on top of that, there’s a live possibility Vance/Kushner/Witkoff lied to him that they got side deals.

We rolled out the red carpet for buses on Madison and Lexington Avenues. The result? 150,000 New Yorkers have faster daily commutes. Fast and reliable buses now cruising along an avenue near you.

Kalshi tried to get out of following our laws in New York. They lost in court. @governor.ny.gov and I will continue to hold all gambling platforms accountable — including prediction markets.

Platner hates the Democratic Party so was never going to step aside so that the party could implement a process to replace him. That is why it was so reckless for voters to elevate someone so unqualified and flawed to be the nominee. Platner’s candidacy was always going to turn out this way.

No one person should pick Maine’s nominee for Senate - least of all Graham Platner. If he or his “team” had a shred of decency he would have already withdrawn. But it is obvious they don’t. There should be both a short and long term cost for this for each of them.

Today in world leaders coddling America's 80-year-old president in decline like he's a toddler.

America’s 250th birthday also marks the 150th birthday of the racial massacre that ended Reconstruction, overturned an election and ushered in Jim Crow. It started because of road rage.

So as far as I can tell, Trump hasn’t posted a single thing about the USMNT losing last night? Or commented on it from his trip overseas? Not the biggest deal, but once again, can you imagine the the furor if Biden or Obama didn’t congratulate a national team for a valiant effort within a few hours?

NEW: A lawsuit filed Tuesday alleges that ICE held monthly in-person meetings with Iranian officials in which it divulged details on Iranian asylum seekers and gave Tehran some say in which individuals the Trump administration would deport. Claims both State and ICE coordinated handing over files.

The election denier who manages election administration in Arizona’s largest county got a major victory today in the state supreme court:

New from me: The Chief Design Officer of the United States, Trump's pick to rebrand the US government, just boosted the John Birch Society twice in recent days. He did so to claim immigrants are driving up housing prices. He is also a founder of AirBNB. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/trumps-chi...

BREAKING NEWS: Man who is famously wrong about everything refuses to admit he was wrong.

It defies every iota of logic that somebody would try to ram armed officers with guns drawn. These murderous thugs lie over and over and over again to justify their violence.

Guess who’s snoozing in Turkey?

The dean of Yale Law School and some members of its faculty are trying to stop a settlement between the university and the Trump admin — warning that an agreement could jeopardize Yale's independence, according to two people familiar with the deliberations.

🚨BREAKING: The Trump administration is threatening to hold back terrorism-prevention funding from states unless they comply with a sweeping set of election demands — escalating President Donald Trump’s ongoing attempt to seize power over elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

No matter how much it happens, and it happens CONSTANTLY, I will never get used to the gop's first reaction to everything being 'we didn't do anything wrong'.

the only surprise out of the Make-a-Wish Administration for Dipshits here is that Kash wasn’t involved

Kasie Hunt asked Scott Jennings on live TV if McConnell would be willing to call in to CNN. The discomfort on Jennings’ face while he tried to bullshit his way around that answer was really something. Methinks we still aren’t getting the whole story.

This is the voter fraud they warned us about

"Emil Bove had a picture of Donald Trump as his iPhone wallpaper" sounds like the kind of dumb joke I would make to try and convey how MAGA brain-poisoned Trump's judges are. As it turns out, Emil Bove...actually had a picture of Donald Trump as his iPhone wallpaper.

He never cared about the people. He saw an opportunity to be treated like a hero after failing to win respect in any other part of his life, and he took it. He’s a naked opportunist who in six months will be on Rogan talking about the left eating itself. In a year he’ll run as a republican.

Today, a French court modified Marine Le Pen's sentence and shortened the period during which she is not eligible to run for office. Now she is eligible to run for president in 2027. She'd have to do it while on electronic monitoring. She's announcing her decision at 8pm local.

This is all happening on the same day as the UK's Farage, hit by his own scandals, announces he will resign as MP *and* then run for his own seat in the resulting election. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
