I say this without reservation: This is the most important piece of writing you will read this year. It contextualizes what the conservative movement really is and why this moment is so utterly dangerous. Its conclusion that we will have to unmake the conservative power structure is absolute truth

Changing my Disney+ subscription to a Tylenol subscription.

Nobody could have predicted this outcome.

I have now lived a long and full life, with a Republican Treasury Secretary saying that adding a national sales tax -- imposed on an odd assortment of goods -- *raises* economic growth. Can't wait to raise other taxes to raise growth further. Or to double tariffs so we can double growth.

The price for the HEPA filters I get from Amazon jumped from $22 to $30, but China is paying the tariffs. 🙄

"I don't believe that anyone doubts that Lisa Cook committed some kind of mortgage fraud" We've gone from innocent until proven guilty to guilty before being charged.

lol

My name is Captain Dylan Blaha, and this message is for members of the National Guard across the USA. I've served in the Illinois Army National Guard for over 12 years, including a deployment to Afghanistan and three years on active duty in Europe. What's going on right now is not normal.

Please be kind to the members of the German Reserve Police Battalion 101. They don't want this either. Those who don't study history......

few rules of international law are more fundamental than this

Hammer on nail... this man is going viral.

My bank just asked me to send them a letter, in the mail, with my signature. Cue the ragtime music.

Is Joe Rogan the liberal Joe Rogan Democrats have been looking for? lol

The sun unexpectedly rose in the east today. Maybe it will set in the west.

RIP Ozzy youtu.be/oqpBP3Tjwi4?...

I'm sorry, nine HUNDRED former DOJ lawyers all signed this letter opposing Emil Bove's nomination to be an appellate federal judge? 900?!

My god these guys are such spectacular morons gizmodo.com/billionaires...

We made a big mistake when we decided that governments should and could communicate with the public during disasters largely via corporate-owned algorithmic social media websites. We have to return to requiring governments to use truly *public* platforms designed for this use case that all can see.

and 45 D's vote yes in the Senate.

Elon Navalny

The ticker is playing the perfect counterpoint to this nonsense. Dow down, S&P down, NASDAQ down, Crude up, Gold up, Bitcoin whatever lol, lmao

Next stop, God complex

I have a great idea for the NYT. All these papers have been in the dumps since the classifieds money went away. Sell people space in a "Shit on the NYT" section. Big money maker.

Our future

What about this moment now?

It's the most number of words anyone could possibly use to say "I failed to rise to the moment", but you should listen to it anyway.

“So what’s neat is that you can just do command-shift-E and rank every single resident from whitest to least,” said the billionaire libertarian theonion.com/peter-t...

Reminder that when SCOTUS wanted to nuke Biden's eviction moratorium and student loan forgiveness, they gleefully grabbed the cases before appellate courts could decide. But "the President has declared the Constitution invalid so he can kidnap citizens and send them to foreign gulags" can wait.

We've got a lot of problems in our society. Wealth inequality might be the worst one.

The singularity is awesome

You only have to look at Harvard and Claudine Gay to know that the University should reject the resignation and fight to keep him. A resignation is equivalent to taking your own chess pieces off the board.

Where can I find this on an odds market? Trump told NBC News on Monday night, predicting that Israel and Iran will never “be shooting at each other again.”

Noteworthy, I think, that the Democratic establishment are putting much more effort into stopping Mamdani than stopping Trump

I never expected us to be the proxy in someone else's proxy war, but here we are.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory

Me: Hi, I would like to buy some life and disability insurance. Them: What do you do for work? Me, About that.....

We’re all baffled as to why the boondoggle plane was given the greedy imbecile tyrant’s nickname, yup baffled indeed

Make coffee, obviously.

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

People are just ruder on social media than in person. This isn't an indictment of Bluesky at all.

“What Senator Alex Padilla did today was political theater.” --Kristi Noem, the Head of Costuming, Hair, and Makeup at Political Theater

But does it matter, that's the question.

You can't stop an oligarchy by stopping one guy.

The Hague should have an advice column.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Donald Tump is a "Social Media Heavyweight". Great framing, that's what's relevant, his social media pull.
