Take my money!!!

Sadly for Democrats, the Supreme Court seems poised to save Republicans from themselves by striking down Trump’s tariffs.

Republicans asking, “Why do Nazis keep popping up in our party?”

It takes extraordinary schmoozing skills to run for public office in NYC—and Mamdani is the best I’ve seen in decades. Outsiders don’t appreciate how much he embodies the city’s zeitgeist.

My conversations with students about the efficacy of divestment campaigns usually go something like this:

I’m learning a lot about being diabetic—mostly, that I hate being diabetic.

It’s more accurate to say that Republicans are having the exact same big, public argument about antisemitism that they had 30 years ago—and they still haven’t done a damn thing about it.

1. A watershed moment. The President of the Heritage Foundation and Heritage Action, Kevin Roberts , has announced that the organization is standing by Tucker Carlson in the aftermath of Tucker’s interview with neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes. This isn’t Kevin bending his knee to Trump…this is something new

NEW: President Trump says he has instructed the DOD to begin testing nuclear weapons “on an equal basis” with Russia and China. It’s unclear what this means since Russia and China are not currently conducting nuclear tests and the DOD does not conduct testing for the US (it’s the DOE that does).

Gonna be awkward when they realized they've been trying to fire the guys at NNSA who would actually do nuclear weapons tests

Russia just tested what it describes as a nuclear-powered cruise missile. It hasn’t tested a nuclear weapon. I wonder if Trump is demanding nuclear tests because he’s confusing nuclear propulsion with nuclear explosives? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

MAGA having a normal one…

Young woman posts a voter selfie, prompting a right-wing meltdown of epic proportions:

Is it just me or is the Islamophobia today even worse than it was after 9/11? All because a Muslim-American might be elected mayor of a city that most conservatives already hold in contempt.

Did she grow up in Antarctica?

Did they ever make a Star Trek action figure of Joe Piscopo?

Republicans have shifted gears from “Democrats want to provide healthcare to illegals” to “Obamacare is a failure”

The face-eating leopard has come for Dinesh D’Souza.

So, we’re at the point where Young Conservatives saying they love Hitler are excused as telling “naughty jokes” and a guy’s Nazi tattoo is “a small skeleton in his closet.” This Left-Right horseshoe continues to impress.

Presumably, he’s moving to Argentina.

That tattoo is the symbol worn by the people who murdered my family.

Some 500 light years away, WASP-127B is an exoplanet with intense supersonic winds. A new research paper speculates that an alien civilization might build vast wind turbines to harness the energy of such a world. That tech might be detectable from Earth. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3...

Remember this photo the next time a Republican says they want to drill for oil in a national park and promise to leave only a tiny footprint.

Wonderful photo of Saturn’s moon Enceladus orbiting along the ring it creates as it spews frozen water into space from cracks in the ice of its southern hemisphere.

MAGA is big-time angry about this article: www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/oc...

Bari Weiss would never have allowed Edward R. Morrow on the air.

Ah, Twitter never disappoints.

In 1938, New York judge Nathan Perlman directed an army led by Jewish gangsters across the United States in a successful yearlong campaign to squelch two key American Nazi organizations, the Bund and the Silver Legion. I want this made into a movie. www.timesofisrael.com/bam-kapow-wh...

The MAGA version of a “No Kings” protest is them trying to ban books about Martin Luther King Jr. in public schools.

Guillermo del Toro has said it was his lifelong dream to make his own version of Frankenstein. That dream has now been realized — and then some.

Movie buffs, can you help me out? Many years ago, I saw a British film about a guy accused of murder attempting to prove his innocence. The character recalled a childhood trauma about a friend who fell through the ice in a pond, and how he struggled unsuccessfully to rescue him. 1/4
