It's very important, yet difficult, to separate old despicable shit from new despicable shit. "It's totally fine for gerrymandering to be overly political to disenfranchise a political minority" is relatively old despicable shit. /1

“Yes, yes, we can see all your ‘facts’ and all the adorable little ‘evidence,’ but you failed to consider that none of that matters if we all close our eyes and pretend the Texas GOP actually had pure motives here, you stupid little rubes.”

Prison rape is wrong. Jokes about prison rape are wrong. Eliminating protections against prison rape is wrong. If another country sentenced a criminal to be raped, we'd consider it a crime against humanity. BUT A large segment of Americans regard prison rape as a de facto part of the sentence.

If there was one thing I would have thought the current Supreme Court majority was against, it would be assigning voters to districts based on race. But today's Texas decision seems to veer into a "eh, it happens" mode. /1

BREAKING on MS NOW:   Brian Cole Jr., the suspect accused of being the Jan. 6 pipe bomber, confessed to agents that he planted the bombs and has indicated he supported President Trump, according to two people familiar with his interview.

Normally the creators of beloved children’s cartoon characters would not need to disavow the U.S. Secretary of Defense, but ours is a drunken miscreant, a loutish boor with the dignity and nobility of a counterfeit butt-plug

Nice recovery there Po 😆

Sarah Beckstrom seems like she was a wonderful person who had a bright future ahead of her. Such a tragedy.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing. And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

What workload? All he does is schedule vacation time, hold press conferences to announce he has no knowledge of anything, and monitors his son's porn usage. Did anyone every figure out where his paycheck actually gets deposited since he doesn't have a bank account? That would be good to know.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

In case you missed this, the BBC edited a historian's speech about Trump to remove the claim that he's "the most openly corrupt president in US history." This came after Trump had threatened a $1 billion lawsuit. Elite capitulation continues. Read all about it here: newrepublic.com/article/2036...

I take on average 10,000 stills and a half hour of video every week. Most I'll never think about again. This I'll hold onto until I grow old. 4 hours ago. Zero edits. No recoloring. No cropping. Nothing. Just straight up reality. 🦑

Elon Musk donated $277 million to Trump so he could steal the federal government’s data, dismantle the nation’s infrastructure, and stop foreign aid from going to nonwhite people. It’s a quid pro quo breathtaking in scope, corruption, and damage, & completely unprecedented in American history.

This is my kind of good trouble.

Are those "MANY GREAT LEGAL SCHOLARS" in the room with you right now, Piggy?

All you men out there, please, I'm begging you, read @elienyc.bsky.social and learn from it! 🎯🔥👏👏👏👏👏

Trump is absolutely cratering on economy in new Marquette poll: Overall econ approval: 36-64 On tariffs: 37-63 On inflation/cost of living: 28-72 (!!!) "We’re looking at a really grim downward spiral for Trump," says @timothynoah.bsky.social. All on the pod: newrepublic.com/article/2034...

Trump is calling for the six Democratic lawmakers who urged the military not to follow any illegal orders to be arrested, and he’s reposting replies saying they should be hanged and calling them terrorists.

Breaking: An Epstein survivor just silenced press conference attendees when she delivered the following remarks: “Today we stand in a moment that will decide whether our government belongs to the American people, or to those who prey on them.”

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say. "When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

Swalwell: Kristi Noem and Tom Homan, you should familiarize yourselves with this room. Get to know that witness chair — you’re going to be parked in it for a long time. Accountability is coming.

So you mistakenly dismembered a journalist?

US citizen Maria Greeley, a Latina who was adopted, was walking home from work downtown when masked agents zip tied her. They said she “doesn’t look like a Greeley.” This is how the government treats people under current deportation policies. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/15/l...

Trump is a piece of shit and his supporters like him because they are pieces of shit.

This is the sort of brazen lie you tell when you’re trying to demonstrate your power by showing you can say shit that everyone knows is a lie, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.

Trump: "I gave them as you know unlimited water, Biden came back with a rigged election, and he immediately restricted the water again. But I came back in and immediately unrestricted it again. So now you have unlimited water to clean your damn dishes."

Deeply ashamed just because you were soliciting a convicted child predator for advice on cheating on your wife my pressuring a younger colleague into sleeping with you while sneering at her and her work? Gosh Ross Douthat better write another piece decrying woke culture

So Harvard is keeping this guy, but Claudine Gay had to step down over ginned up plagiarism accusations and bad-faith accusations of anti-Semitism. Got it.

Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now? TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question

Jim Jordan begged someone to not rat out the sexual assault that was happening at Ohio State. He was crying on the phone. Groveling. This man threw out all his dignity to try and cover for horrifying crimes of sexual abuse. Think about that for a moment.

The reason we have laws* against bribery is that companies will absolutely bribe politicians at the very first opportunity if it is good for the bottom line, because they see it as a sound business decision, not a civilizational betrayal. /1

Love it when Jasmine is on🔥 “Mike Johnson is full of shit. We know that he didn't even bring the House back in because he was trying to avoid us dealing with Epstein. He would not even swear in a duly elected member of Congress to avoid this. So miss me on pretending that this is about the victims.”

Every outlet worth a damn should be calling this out. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

ABC’S MARY BRUCE: “Why wait for Congress? Why not just release the files?” TRUMP: “It’s not the question, it’s your attitude. I think you’re a terrible reporter.” (TRANSLATION: She’s asking the right questions and he can’t handle it)

Marjorie Taylor Greene on Trump: "I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for 6 years. Let me tell you what a traitor is. It's an American who serves foreign countries and themselves." #ProudBlue #Pinks Saudi Relations #TrumpIsATraitor

He bullied this woman reporter because he is pathetic and scared. He knows the files are coming.
