oh wow you’re telling me that jd vance follows yet another nazi on twitter

❗️NEW: Governor Hochul announced an updated immigration proposal that would give police officers wide discretion to collude with ICE if they claim to have probable cause to detain someone. This proposal makes a mockery of due process and will endanger countless immigrant New Yorkers.

CEO said a thing! not a single fleeting hint, even in ambiguous passing, that the merger might be bad for anyone, anywhere extremely impressive

Feds fold again before having to face legal consequences for illegally holding up transit dollars. 2nd Ave Subway phase 2 dollars flow for now. www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

Grotesque: In a dispute over a will, two brothers including a retired Alabama state trooper now working at a federal courthouse, appear to have gotten their mother-in-law arrested by ICE. Using the state to remove disfavored family members is the sort of thing that happens in totalitarian regimes.

Trump take beef

Hi! A responsible title to this article would have been something like, "Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas calls for violent right-wing revolution against most of the American populace".

“I don’t want to see the pope as a politician” lady I got some news for you about how you get elected pope by a conclave of powerful men who all have strong opinions on how one of the oldest institutions in the world should be run

I had savvy dem politicos tell me this was literally impossible, the fight was totally lost, and American activists who made a stink about it were lost causers tearing apart the coalition to no real political end not even two years ago.

In today's drivers do whatever the fuck they want, at 86th/2nd drivers got jammed up turning onto 2nd because of pedestrians. Light changes to ped signal to cross 86th, driver nearest the curb is stuck in the crosswalk but doesn't go (good). Instead a taxi runs the red to hook right from middle lane

I think a lot of podcasters in this vein should be interpreted as “reactionary” in the most literal sense that they are extremely vacuous and form their politics by following trends of resentment against whatever they see on social media

If courts cannot use criminal contempt to force the government to act and need to rely on Trump's DOJ, they have no power over the government. And that means the DOJ can do whatever it wants without repercussions (beyond losing cases). That's inconsistent with a free society.

I gotta say: I still don't understand the politics of going after the Pope, someone more popular than any Republican and with far more moral and actual authority than these guys. What are you trying to accomplish here?

Knowingly spending money Congress never authorized is a federal crime under the Antideficiency Act—punishable by up to two years in prison. Trump ordered DHS to do it anyway.

conservative free speech is when they speak and you listen or suffer the consequences

*rubs temples* It would legitimately be easier to just impeach him than do this. I do not understand it.

This is pointless theater if you actually understand how 25A works, which Raskin does

How 3 Trump-appointed judges have prevented Judge Boasberg from probing top DHS & DOJ officials (including a now fourth Trump-appointed judge, Emil Bove) for possible criminal contempt for 363 days.

revising history as it happens is the primary role of the news media

For decades, men from Milwaukee voided even the appearance of cannibalism. Jeffery Dahmer is taking a different approach.

less than a week later out from a freeze warning it's a fucking heatwave 😭 then the forecast from a week from now is a high just below 60 seasons are good but not when it's a new season every fucking day 📈📉📈📉📈📉

we love our meme based economy don't we folks

I maintain that among the media's biggest mistakes has been continuing to ask Trump questions as if he's a normal guy instead of asking things like "Can you explain who Jesus is" or "Describe the process of pumping gas"

Trump Purged About 75 People Charged With Safeguarding Elections and Replaced Some With 2020 Deniers: Report

Not dunking on Zack or this post, I’m just always struck by how easily American journalists will admit that the media shapes public polling and political outcomes when they’re not talking about America.

We have many decades of verified, repeatable, consistent research showing that is exactly how mass media works. Several enormous industries are built on the idea of media affecting attitudes and beliefs. Reporters who deny this in a fit of pique at facing down their own behavior just look unserious.

they like him and want to help him. They send out a push alert not for the actual story "the president is losing his fucking mind" but one repeating Trump's false criticism of the Pope as if they are reasonable.

Sure hope the ADL is feeling good about going out of their way to defend this guy against charges of antisemitism.

i will vote for any candidate who offers up this slogan

From new Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar's acceptance speech tonight. This is the absolute BARE MINIMUM platform for any Democrat running for President in 2028.

Another cool thing about parliamentary systems, none of this 2-3 month transition nonsense. You lost, get out

Can we get JD Vance to campaign in every state for the midterms?

the Hungarian super-majority margin is going to be thin enough that it is quite possible that JD Vance going there got enough people to the polls to spite him to make it possible

"good tsar bad boyars" for fucking Musk and the everything app, just lololololol

had some leftover vindaloo for breakfast and accidentally inhaled a bit of sauce, 0/10 do not recommend

American Century of Humiliation

No no no you can’t do the blockading I do the blockade. I won the election by a very large margin, okay? They asked me to do it. Obama wouldn’t it. Hillary Clinton couldn’t do it! Joe Biden, he’s too old to do it. You tell me the Iranians will do it, I don’t wanna hear about it.

These are vicious, venal, and incredibly petty people.

This must hit so hard if you’re incredibly stupid.

I'm going to point out that we spent a shit ton of taxpayer money on moderna and he's stealing it from us.

bye bob

YES, A FAILED IMPEACHMENT MEANS REPUBLICANS APPROVE OF TRUMP'S CONDUCT. THAT'S THE WHOLE REASON TO DO IT

Aided by an entire contingent of wishcasting IR scholars

we should treat these pardons as null and void as far as i am concerned www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Including the stock ticker symbol here is a nice touch
