We are not nearly mean enough to all Trump and GOP voters.

100 year mortgage.

The Elite Media is a really shitty club of really shitty people it's important to subscribe to and support independent organizations like The Bulwark, ProPublica, New Republic, TPM, etc

Another reason why so many ppl in news media suck is bc they think theyre the cleveriest ppl ever to exist when in fact theyre easily duped idiots

Also she kept insisting there was no Russiagate when she was on The View. Betch is still cray.

It’s pretty simple. When you do a huge armed midnight raid on an apartment building rounding up and terrorizing children and later find out there were no criminals there everyone involved resigns in shame and we have loud showy Congressional hearings.

Reproductive rights was one of the Biden Administration’s signature policies. And Roe v Wade had been law for almost 50 years. The Supreme Court “interfered” with it.

The Supreme Court made up the "major questions doctrine," under which the Court gets extra powers when things are a Big Deal and what's a Big Deal is up to the Justices. Why not make up a new "signature policies" rule where a president can put things beyond the court's reach, like a franchise tag.

More people need to know the name @jacobgrier.bsky.social. This, in @theunpopulist.net, is absolute gold.

The Japanese are just so insane.

A reminder of what their campaign ads looked like:

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

I love Peter Weller but man...

Probably fewer women in economics because they’re just not as smart, right, Larry?

Donald Trump promises to release the Epstein Files after the audit is completed.

I legit had a nightmare the night I watched House of Dynamite. Maybe because I grew up during the Cold War and remember how terrifying the idea of a nuclear attack was.

Brett Stephens doesn't want the Democrats to talk about Epstein because he likes Donald Trump and wants to protect him. That's the only explanation why he wrote about this.

Obviously no one should have to go through this but also what does she think happens to people she attacks? She can see what her audience does! Probably rude to say, but it’s worth stressing that the (rightful) disgust she feels is the taste of her own medicine.

oh…my god

The President of the United States should never call on someone to be fired for criticizing him.

The Christian right has become an increasingly powerful force in American politics at every level, from school boards to the presidency. Its roots trace back decades. By @phoebepetrovic.bsky.social (Published Oct. 2024)

The Trump family is chasing another real estate deal in Saudi Arabia. And the Saudis want a mutual defense agreement and access to U.S. nuclear technology. Looks like Trump and the royal family will both win, with our national security for sale. The only losers? The American people.

It’s like a corollary to Wilhoit that the Trump administration must affirmatively benefit from financial ethics rules which do not bind it, while the rest of us are bound but not protected by those rules.

Just in the past 3 days, I happened to speak to an academic, a US politician and a former Biden official who had all received death threats and severe harassment from the MAGA movement. It's now a common experience. I am sorry MTG has to live through the same thing, but she can't be surprised

Israel is asking Trump to only give Saudi Arabia the F-35 jet as part of a normalization deal in which the KSA recognizes Israel without the establishment of the independent State of Palestine

Just an insane epidemic of narcissism in the US these days.

I hope he dies of extremely painful dick and balls cancer ngl.

I'd say Maxwell is pardoned by probably Wednesday

Marjory Taylor Greene best stay away from very high windows what with these people all being literal psychopaths.

This entire administration is a national security risk

Man.

The actual enemy of the US is modern American conservatism and American conservative voters they are by far the greatest threat the Republic has ever faced.

I hate conspiracy theories so much but also I'm thinking Trump had Epstein killed.

The shutdown was an excuse, not a reason, to go after SNAP. SNAP recipients have to re-apply either every 6 months or year. Onerous process, with almost no fraud. There are no shutdown-related requirement for SNAP renewal. But it would predictably result in low-income families going hungry.

What. I don't need to hate Japanese people at all to justify this tho but ok.

Both parties should support this. Using AI to generate a video of a candidate saying something he didn’t say should be illegal. Especially since many voters think it is real. I will condemn any candidate from either party who does this.

Clyburn calls out Bessent for trying to take credit on a project in his district initiated by Biden.

Employees of a minimum-security prison camp in Bryan, Texas, where convicted child-sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell is serving time have been terminated, one of Maxwell’s lawyers said Friday, after a whistleblower this week released to Rep. Jamie Raskin correspondence between Maxwell and her lawyer.

Just think how mad people were at Obama for letting the banks and bankers off the hook (which they shouldn't have done) after 08 but this is like while ass other levels of bad.

there is actually a story in this revolting Nuzzi piece if you sandblast away the lies about a hot young woman being "in love" with a guy old enough to be her grandfather who looks like a catcher's mitt and sounds like an evil muppet

Operation Change The Topic From Epstein

NEW YORK (AP) — A judge says he'll approve a $7 billion opioid settlement with the Sacklers' Purdue Pharma, including money for victims.

Nuzzi almost certainly slept with this Bernstein guy huh.

It's not funny but lol.

The credulity.
