"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record. Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

Folks from a local elementary school in my area are trying to raise $1300 to cover the December rent of a family that's struggling due to an ICE abduction. You can donate through this local church's Zelle. Pls note that your donation is for the "Kilmer family" (Kilmer is the name of the school):

Critics have likened John Gotti’s approach to extortion, while others have chalked it up as a cost of doing business with the Gambino family

A veteran moving to the Pacific Northwest, then driving to DC to stage a mass shooting of government agents? Sounds like he assimilated into American culture pretty successfully.

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

It’s crazy to have SIX dedicated security lines at LaGuardia airport just for Clear & give them priority at the THREE general boarding lanes. This is a tax-payer funded airport that seems to be trying to force people to give their biometric info over to a private company or get squeezed & squeezed.

America putting most of its eggs in the generative AI basket, China going hard into green tech. When history looks back on this period, someone is going to look awfully stupid.

The most important part of the Epstein situation is that Trump murdered him.

This week I have had to conceptualize Bill Clinton receiving oral sex to a degree that, as someone who lived through the mid-90s, I never expected to have to do again.

Every time someone posts a screenshot of one of the Epstein emails, I pause and think “this one has to be fake; don’t get fooled into reposting a spoof.” But then … they’re all real?

Hello @support.bsky.team why has @sarahkendzior.bsky.social been suspended without explanation?????

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard. We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions. We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

If only Chuck Schumer could be just 5% Mitch McConnell and not 100% Charlie Brown.

reminder David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel both went on the record to Politico to say they were fine with this, either knowing the result would be mass death of children or being too dumb to know. Decide for yourself what’s worse!

1. Word is that some “centrist” Dems are eager for a deal with the president that would end the gov't shutdown. I don’t know what the incentive is. Just two days ago, Republican candidates were handed their asses in statewide elections in NJ, VA, MS & GA, as well as municipal elections nationwide.

I do think yesterday’s results reinforced the dynamic that while much of the American leadership class is chickenshit, most of the electorate is not

When did they call him up from the minors?

Just in: Zohran Mamdani caught calling someone "bro", but our investigation has unearthed the truth. This person was not, in fact, his biological brother. Why did he lie? Tune in tonight at 10 for this and more breaking news.

Join @nycplan.org to demand that the City Council support increased and stable funding for our public libraries. Takes 90 seconds: actionnetwork.org/letters/city...

I like how Zohran Mamdani scandals are like "He called his old cousin his aunt one time" and Andrew Cuomo scandals are like "He sexually assaulted 13 women."

Donald Trump has intentionally instructed the federal government to withhold emergency funding for SNAP - that is already paid for and set aside for just this purpose - that would cover almost 3 full weeks for all of the 42 million Americans who rely on it. Media is barely covering that fact at all.

Inside the Hermitage, the winter palace where Tsar Nicholas II and his family lived before they were executed—in a country where Russians were starving.

“are you concerned that your staff is keeping you informed about naked bike rides and not allegations of domestic abuse among your members?” is something you could say

We have free copies for anyone in prison in the United States or Canada.

And if it DOES work, it'll kill us.

ICE is randomly targeting peaceful protesters because the point is to terrorize the public into accepting martial law. Indiscriminate attacks send the message that there’s nothing you can do to stay safe. The regime wants you to cower at home and cede the streets of your city to their control.

My colleagues & I have taken a huge gamble to set up @thenerve.news We’re trying to build a new independent publication from the ground up. Social media is our only distribution for now. Sharing this article in your networks would make a huge difference. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏

Nobody wants it as a story but I have multiple NYPD sources who voted for Mamdani, are eager for his win in November, and who say their colleagues quietly feel the same. They like that he wants NYPD to focus on crime, not quality of life enforcement.

Sunday reading: I wrote about the aggrieved extremist who is currently firing thousands of federal workers and ravaging state capacity based on conspiratorial nonsense - and about mainstream media’s infuriating tendency to sanitize Russell Vought and the regime he serves. This week’s piece:

The word that keeps running through my head about this administration (among others) is "adolescent." These are people with a little boy's idea of what sounds manly.

“I’m resigning from my position as Democratic leader and retiring from the Senate.”

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

For 26 but especially 2028 it's time for Democrats to make clear that the current Supreme Court will have to be reformed (expanded in number, reformed in structure) to allow popular govt to continue in the United States. Not so much a litmus test as precondition for any other promise to be credible.
