One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

I don’t even have words for this. One of the 2 guys responsible for this mass death wants a peace prize and the other wants $1trillion to be a bad CEO.

These are so routine now that I sometimes miss them. We murdered three more people in the Caribbean.

When you're a sociopath and get angry that someone else's medical emergency, just four feet away, drew focus from your gloating and you forget which lie you were on.

It's not even strictly partisan, Democrats who suck up to him can get in on it too (Blagojevich did, good chance Menendez will). No need for any pretense a prosecution was flawed in some way. It's official policy that Trump just straight-up hates the idea corruption should be illegal and punished.

Spotify’s Discovery Mode allows artists to flag songs to be boosted in Spotify’s algorithmic recommendations in exchange for a 30% royalty commission—but a lawsuit accuses the streaming company of boosting artists who pay them.

It's been 43 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress. Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

Tesla is a cult with the full faith and backing of public markets

Long live sandwich guy! www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...

To emphasize what @moiradonegan.bsky.social is saying: In the same speech where Rothbard announced his desire to “repeal the twentieth century,” he raged against “organized feminism” and the “loony left” as a key enemy - the “feminist, deconstructing, quota-loving, advanced victimological left.”

Did Knee-Jerk Contrarianism Ruin the New York Times?

How did Georgia pull off their first statewide win in non-federal races in 19 years—and so convincingly? Turnout, turnout, turnout. The state's 10 largest blue counties made up more than 52% of the total electorate. That compares to 44.6% last year, and 45.3% in the 2022 Senate runoff.

Like shoppers aren't going to notice that this is a blatant lie. He must think we're as stupid as he is.

I think a lot about the story Carl Reiner told: he’d have been a sewing machine repairman if not for a free WPA drama class. That led to other theater work, to Sid Caesar, to Mel Brooks, and all the rest. All because of one free class paid for by a government that felt the arts were worth teaching.

Whenever I can, I go to Broadview ICE, where BP and ICE agents are coming in and out, and I hold a sign that says ICE IS EVIL, and I say those words. Because this is evil. It's just evil.

Every couple of weeks I get a post that's meant for Chuck Schumer, but I am not Chuck Schumer

Lol holy shit it's all so bad

This, in particular, is spectacularly hideous. It's like something you'd see on the wall of a car dealership where they put pictures of their top salespeople every month

i realize car dealership owners are his demographic but holy shit lol

oh my god

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

If they’re comparing it to themselves, sure. If they’re comparing it to someone capable of putting on their pants without crying, probably not.

No it’s important to listen to this. Because then you understand that many of them will do ANYTHING to keep power. Remember Musk got involved in the 2024 election after saying to Tucker “if she wins” I am definitely going to prison. So we need to move knowing that nothing is off the table for them.

I think it’s only fair that we get a “Have men ruined society?” op-ed

I have a column coming out tomorrow that was pretty gratifying to write.

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

trying to imagine the person that goes, "man, it's really important that i vote, i gotta keep steve bannon out of prison"

If an AI ever does attain human-level intelligence, we’ll know immediately. How? It’ll *stop answering all our stupid questions.*

I like how this is completely dystopian, incredibly stupid, and pointlessly expensive but it’s fine because it’s just vaporware.

Tesla is a company that asks "what if we made a publicly traded company's shareholder meetings a cult of personality" the answer is the owner gets really really rich and the fundamentals are meaningless

my new mayor getting sexual predators off the streets on day 1 i KNOW thats right

The more democratic elements of the American constitutional and economic order are actually throwing up road blocks to Trumpism. Protests and boycotts and low level courts and juries and cetera. Elite actors on the other hand are all too frequently caving. Fascinating study in who actually cares!

this has been one of my central arguments the past ten years. the theory underpinning the anti-democratic elements of the american constitutional order is wrong!

Look I get publishing a broad spectrum of opinions but I already fed them this morning

Look, it's not even in the top thousand offenses of this administration, but I can't get over how fucking tacky and gaudy the Oval Office has become under this clown. I'm surprised he hasn't thrown up some LIVE LAUGH LOVE pictures to complete the look of "strip mall Italian restaurant"

This is really impressive. They invented racism.

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.

I helped make a film, out this week, called “Rovina’s Choice,” about the deaths this man without conscience or accountability has caused — already 600,000, ⅔ of them children.

I don't think it's even right to say the voting public doesn't care. I think the truth is a lot of voters may generally find trans identity moderately confusing but also *none of their business*. on the other hand, they find an obsession with harming trans people - say it with me - deeply weird.

Tisch knew about the Oct 21 ICE raid on Canal Street 4 hours ahead of time & did nothing. As I outlined in my @wired.com piece yesterday, Mamdani faces a very hard choice b/t living up to his campaign promises & pleading nyc’s shadow govt should he keep Tisch www.nydailynews.com/2025/11/06/n...

We used to call this perjury: www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

ICE is getting paid but Air Traffic Controllers aren’t. That’s all you need to know about the Trump Administration.

AI true believer techbros and their vc enablers don’t want AI for the world. They will without a second thought destroy the world to achieve an entity that will think for *them* at their bidding so that they no longer have to rely on us troublesome human beings.

Forget about AI. China is kicking our ass on renewable FREE energy.

Unreal — Trump is fighting soooo hard to keep food from hungry families

Geoffrey Hinton's Nobel Prize is leading many otherwise well-educated people to buy into the flimsiest of A.I. hype narratives. Scrutinize his patents, though, shows he stands to profit from the nooks and crannies of all this, no matter if it's inferior patents.justia.com/patent/12067...

The "Trump v. Hawaii" standard they're citing to justify this was the case in Trump 1.0 when SCOTUS greenlit his Muslim travel ban, emphasizing that your rights are only as strong as your neighbors
