Also, and I can’t emphasize this enough: Elon Musk and DOGE have spent the last year committing felonies out in the open. He’s going to fucking jail when Trump leaves office. That’s his *best* outcome

This should tank the stock entirely A horrendous and unjustified financial decision, made in the name of retaining the company’s largest liability

FDR would've felt incredibly vindicated by all of this. A core proposition of the New Deal was that the country's ruling class was incapable — at best — of defending the Constitution, and that it was up to a dissident vanguard of intellectuals, in conjunction with workers and farmers, to do it.

Amazing things are happening in the Yale School of Management and AI Powered Phrenology

hmmm what kind of features could be being looked at there, I wonder, what kind indeed

a man was just found not guilty by jury lollification

straight-up jury nullification. this guy did it, confessed to it, and the jury instructions explicitly said that if he did it intentionally, it was assault.

This is a really hard day and I want to just add as WIRED's politics editor -- WIRED's politics reporting isn't going anywhere. We are very much here and won't stop. Please continue to read and support us - canceling your subscription to WIRED is not standing in solidarity with our journalists.

Dr Oz talking about obesity, diabetes and dementia while Trump is slumped over like a man minutes from death is supremely funny content

finance guys on twitter are like "can't believe zohran hired lina khan. she wants to make it illegal to bundle memecoin futures into junk stocks and sell them to public worker pension plans. the public won't stand for it."

“Make me a trillionaire or I’ll do the best possible thing for your company”

Does man who spends 14 hours a day posting deserve one trillion dollars? Many posters say the matter is complicated.

What an incredible coincidence that all of these conversations are happening at the same time bsky.app/profile/utop...

Like I said, I don’t think it’s a coincidence all of these guys are talking like this now. All of a sudden, bailouts, handouts, and direct state intervention is an unalloyed good that shouldn’t be questioned, neither in contingency nor in principle.

The optics of RFK and Oz doing their wellness shtick and then just booking it as people starting passing out is incredible

Any support of Trump after Jan 6th should be so incredibly taboo that your children should be lying about it and locking you away from respectable society for your own sake if you did it

Jesus I see what you've done for others

MrBeast hates Zohran because if people have access to basic necessities, it will demolish the Giving People Those Necessities As Part Of A Saw-Inspired Game Show industry

LA: “They took a US citizen father out and left a toddler in the backseat. Two heavily armed border patrol agents got in that car and drove the child and the vehicle away.” What are we doing?

I swear to god if the lesson we learned from 2008 was “next time, let’s bailout the tech startups” I will literally implode The SVB bailout was bad enough

we still do not know what kash patel was doing between january 6th, 2021 and january 20th, 2021. what we do know is that whatever it was, it got his badge deactivated and got him locked out of the Pentagon.

"'They’re spending more money than I would even tax them,' [Mamdani] said in an interview with MSNBC last week." This is the message. Make it clear that these billionaires aren't just worried about losing money. They're worried about losing the ability to exchange their money for power.

Beyond the obvious racism, it’s unbelievably demeaning to the first responders and 9/11 victims to be reduced to political props by the very people who would deny their families healthcare and financial compensation

I have to imagine far-right Catholics are really struggling with the fact that they can now hear this stuff in English directly from the pope.

there's a weird double standard where it is socially acceptable to be bad at math ("it's not for everyone") and its a crime that people can't do content analysis of media. it comes from the sense that math is something too esoteric for normies to master but everyone is equally able to do reading

how is this not satire

When the masks come off, and accountability is delivered in full public view, we will lock the perpetrators of these crimes away for life in darkest hole available. We will burn their version history from our books, we will tear down their monuments, and we will crush the culture that created them.

catwoman didn't vote (felon); joker didn't vote; poison ivy and bane voted mamdani (left-wing); mr. freeze, scarecrow, and harley quinn voted for mamdani (edpol); killer croc, two-face, and clayface voted for cuomo. penguin voted for adams (also on the turkish payroll).

*Please* try it. The American people will continue to respond accordingly

I think, particularly after yesterday‘s elections, this BS is why the public is so ripshit and furious mad at the GOP. It’s not even just policy, they don’t like the ICE stuff, but what they absolutely HATE, is the rule by decree from the White House. They want elected representatives making laws.

Thank you, New York City. Together we made history. Now let’s get to work. transition2025.com

I am taking particular pleasure in the complete collapse of trans-as-unbeatable-wedge-issue narrative this morning. It might be an 80-20 issue in voters minds, but it has to be on voters minds to matter. The results in VA demonstrate that it is very much not on voters minds.

Greenblatt is deeply committed to partisan politics at the cost of Jewish safety, and I think that’s antisemitic

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Hey wait a minute, maybe Bluesky *is* reality, and it’s just X that’s fake

Suicidal for centrists to be begging for moderation when now would be a great time to pass some big, ambitious policies and remind people why Democrats are better than Republicans.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Welcome to the CIA-DSA-GSA. We’re glad you’re here.

I love that Zohran did not praise Cuomo in his speech. You absolutely do not have to say nice things about bad people. We should normalize that in “polite” politics: Praising bad people is not actually “civility.”

“I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life”

Democratic party leadership has been on autopilot for ten years, they weren't losing to fascism, fascism isn't popular enough for them to lose to fascism, they were allowing it to fill the void where their leadership should have been. Tonight we're seeing that we have other options. They should too.

youtu.be/nCQZPNUu22c?... Stop what you are doing and watch this speech right now. One for the history books. Absolutely unbelievable

Zohran is cool and awesome and I’m thrilled for him and all of us but at my core this is who I am: the Jewish guy who shows up to be a world class hater in support of his friend

It goes beyond insanity. Curtis Silwa has New York Bushido. He lives by the sword. He dies by the sword. Fuck Cuomo

“He doesn’t have a mandate” are you fucking kidding? Dick Cheney died the day Zohran is elected he has the mandate of HEAVEN

This was the first time I heard of Mamdani. Look at him now

Bluesky rn
