Season 5 trailer for TRUE DETECTIVE just dropped!

I don’t think this is what Steve Cohen meant five years ago when he said the Mets would be the Dodgers in five years.

Trump will release the MRI once the audit determining which part of his body was imaged is complete.

Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie And hurt you

Jacob Rees-Mogg & his nanny look like the villain & his sidekick in a Bond movie directed by Wes Anderson

Goo-goo-g’joob.

I'm old enough to remember when "armed agents of the federal government raiding churches on Christmas" was not, in fact, a cornerstone of the Republican Party's agenda.

Slave narratives reveal a lost antebellum South.

(serious unbiased journalist voice) “are you trying to distract from the president’s refusal to make health care affordable by pointing out that he was also friends with a pedophile?”

It's a revealing moment... J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost. The inconsistency reveals this isn’t about economics.

Nuzzi's fawning coverage of the sociopathic conspiracy crank she was having an affair with aided his rise to political power, which he is using to perpetrate the worst intentional public health catastrophe of our unnecessarily shortened lifetimes, and THAT is the STORY.

Epstein’s Emails…. except they’re from his mom and signed “Epstein’s Mother”

+1. Great show, and Ethan Hawke’s charisma is off the charts even when he’s getting the shit kicked out of him by goons.

“And what’s with all those ‘break-in-case-of-emergency’ thingamabobs I see everywhere? Unused — every last one of ‘em!”

Really wish a lot of smart commentators would pause for a moment and ponder the question: "Do the words coming from a white, blond, former CIA staffer get perceived VERY DIFFERENTLY than the SAME words uttered by a Black, Indian California attorney married to an entertainment lawyer?"

Republicans lost big this week, not Dems, so Ross had to find something to write about other than “Tuesday’s Results Prove Dems Must Move to Center.” Because Times writers aren’t allowed to write columns arguing “Election Results Prove GOP Must Move to Center.”

Just asking questions.

Americans, you could have this.

Hey Myers — if you see a mohel coming toward you with a knife, run!

Cool. What would you call the other wing then? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...

Meta is the worst.

Good job, media! (Dems couldn’t have been clearer telling them what they’d be getting.) @gelliottmorris.com

Cuomo was a three-term Democratic New York governor and son of a liberal icon who was also a three-term Dem NY governor. He also had the support of much of the Dem establishment. Bill and Hillary Clinton, and New York’s two Democratic senators, almost certainly voted for him.

Can you imagine if the NBA had a rule that said opposing teams could choose to refuse to allow MJ or Steph Curry to shoot in the NBA Finals, with the whole world watching?

Just got a call from Dave Roberts. They’re flying me out to LA and want me to get loose on the plane.

The NY Times and WaPo may be lost causes but holy shite look at PEOPLE out here absolutely killing it with 100% unvarnished truths 🌟

Nation’s biggest law firms back off from challenging Trump policies www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Italian Senator Carlo Calenda left Jeffrey Sachs literally speechless and shocked by calling him a liar and someone who repeats Russian propaganda narratives. I believe this is exactly how public accountability should work - when a liar is called a liar.

NBC wants you to trust its coverage of the East Wing demolition even though NBC's parent company helped pay for the destruction.

In a nearly illiterate editorial, WaPo defends Trump's ballroom project, without revealing the fact that the paper's owner, Jeff Bezos, is a principal funder of the project. Shameful conduct all around. bsky.app/profile/bgru...

This is a masterclass in repeating carefully workshopped robotic talking points that miss the forest for the trees and are irrelevant to the question at hand: Trump chose to build a ballroom instead of funding programs that would feed those kids.

This is how Trump does everything. Reporting from reliable sources says he’s going to do something outrageous/ridiculous. He immediately claims it’s fake news. Then a few days or weeks later he does exactly what was originally reported.

They also stopped licensing their catalogues so they could platform popular and enduring shows exclusively on their own streaming services where no one can find them and they make money for nobody.

Ed Luce watching democracy die in the United States of America

I am proud to have publicly spoken for this article, along with others like @weissmann.substack.com I am disappointed in those who think keeping quiet will save them. It will not.

"Whatever lies behind Trump’s cupidity towards Putin, we should be long past caring why. The reality is settled fact. Putin has fewer cards in his hand than Trump supposes. One of those cards is Trump." My column. www.ft.com/content/7deb...

I'd take "it's a republic not a democracy" a bit more seriously if they cared about all the ways American government has a deep tradition of republican symbolism going all the way back to the Founders, and how it's now being torched in favor of the aesthetics of gilded royalism.

Wake up, babe, the least subtle visual metaphor in history just dropped

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement. Check out how tiny the crowds were: Philly: 200 DC: "several hundred" Boston: 500 Austin: 1,000 Houston: 2,000

How I tell my kids Trump is fundamentally different from other GOP presidents (Nixon, Reagan, the Bushes) I wasn’t a big fan of: They weren’t traitors.

As always, we can compare and despair at how much worse the NYT political desk is than Drudge, who decided it was a non-story not even worth his scrolling front page.

New NYT euphemism just dropped

First, it staves off apathy, cynicism, and despair. Second, it demonstrates to those who might use violence against innocent civilians that they would be doing so against grannies, kids, neighbors. Third, it shows allies and partners that the America they need is alive.

MAGA Jews: “He has Jewish grandchildren!” Trump: www.ft.com/content/addc...

"Magisterial" is over-used as a term, but as a survey of how we got here this deserves it. Trump had to choose between Israel and Qatar. He chose Qatar - on.ft.com/47iVjco via @FT
