D and G and I don’t need anything else

Behold, the best 9/11 humor of all time: The Onion's TV listings (my favorite row is MTV)

✨ New report from CISLM ✨ Using IRS data from 1,600+ foundations, we mapped philanthropic capacity against journalism need across the US, finding four distinct scenarios for intervention:

Yep. Was just thinking of the whole academic complex around polarization, and how that field of research has been legitimized by granting agencies, or seen as a milquetoast liberal alternative to studying, say, democratic failure and increasing right-wing radicalization

Peddling polarization is very lucrative for universities.

Is it "polarization" or has one political party decided to become a death-cult not beholden to any rules, social contracts, or commitments to democratic governance? Who can say?

Dogs are getting vaccinated less and rabies rates are rising, in part because 37% of Americans think vaccines will give their dogs... pawtism. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Seems like the kind of thing federal agents could handle if they weren’t busy tracking down America’s most wanted DoorDash delivery drivers in DC.

Now ask yourself why a man would drug his granddaughters’ ice cream with ecstasy and cocaine

taylor swift getting married and releasing a new album is certainly one way to debunk trump saying she is "no longer hot"

I got an encrypted email from a prosecutor who told me she was desperately trying to apprehend a serial rapist and encountering obstruction: “I believe there is a possibility that this person is being protected.” Catch up on my latest @newyorker.com investigation: www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Alas, 100% of experts think these polling results are hopelessly confused because what people mean by "democracy" and "danger" is so different

Omg he's going to recreate Red Square and the Moscow metro stations isn't he?

Great. All of DC is going to be covered in tacky fake gold trim.

Instagram making sure your sensitive eyes are protected

Why are 90% of op-eds scolding liberals for the way they talk about threats to democracy rather than scolding conservatives for threatening democracy

RFK Jr., Hegseth and Duffy are doing performative public workouts instead of their actual jobs and, what's even more pathetic, they are not remotely good at working out.

A judge ordered the sale of Alex Jones Infowars today, clearing the way for The Onion to renew its attempt to buy the notorious conspiracy-fueled empire. "We’re working on it," @bencollins.bsky.social tells @status.news www.status.news/p/washington...

Just to say this plainly: what you're looking at here is a federal police force accountable only to the president rolling up to intimidate the governor of California as he announces his plan to counter a federal legislative coup out of Texas which will ensure their permanent presence in our streets

We’ve done it for the last ten years for free.

Taking this into my next meeting

The military takeover of Washington is not a “distraction” from Epstein. It’s a military takeover of Washington, which is an even bigger deal, and those of us who kill brain cells reporting on this stuff knows it’s been an explicit goal since before the election.

We’re not sure who needs to hear this, but ‘blueberry’ has two b’s.

Not that DC's self-determination should be subject to crime statistics but DC's violent crime rate is also at a 30-year low

unironically, this is the song of the summer. it's been in my head for three days straight.

If a DOGE staffer got his ass kicked in DC there’s less than zero percent chance it was because he was trying to defend a young woman from “about a dozen young men” lmao but this is some incredible fan fic

Not for nothing, but he was also a klansman after the war, and a passionate opponent of Black suffrage.

I'm concerned about what he thinks happens in football games.

THANKS TO TRUMP’S TARIFFS, THE U.S. IS NOW IN A RECESSION.

Can we nip this "Alligator Alcatraz" shit in the bud? We don't need to adopt their cutesy marketing when talking about the concentration camp in the Florida Everglades

Oh you (and we) all know how…

I’m not saying…well LowerEd over everything.

at least toby keith is dead this time

"Was it really this dumb in 2003" guys they renamed french fries

I think if you write the words "never espoused extremeist views" and then it is followed immediately by "but watched Alex Jones and InfoWars programming" you really need to revise the first part yes this is a subtweet of the WaPo article on the alleged MN shooter

The gold-painted plastic wall molding in the White House of military parades. The Trump Steaks of military parades. The Rufo and Vance love for their wives’ families of military parades. The Mar-a-Lago dinner of military parades. The Ivanka Trump’s nonexistent public profile of military parades.

U Street absolutely does not give a shit about this.

The thing about DC is that 99 percent of life is spent not at the Capitol, Mount Pleasant isn’t doing this shit

When I visited the OKC Memorial and Museum last year, I could not shake this realization.

Because that "he lunged at me" thing was straight out of the white woman he was threatening me 19th century playbook that got a whole lot of black men lynched.

Everyone I knew who covered disinformation got laid off, their bosses got bullied into firing them, or they changed their beats from actual Nazi harassment campaigns. It cannot be stressed the damage the paid-for Substack “free speech” guys did in the service of fascism and against real free speech.

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

it’s not corruption unless its grown in the corruption region of france, anything else is just sparkling bribery

I smell AI
