I would have thought if there was one person in the Trump administration who would be good at calculating drug prices, it would be RFK Jr. www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2026/04/extr...

This cannot be real and yet

Agreed. My hottest take is that politicians/operatives/parties should behave as though they need to earn every vote every time and rank-and-file voters should vote every time in every elections based purely on practical least-worst considerations whether it’s been earned or not.

He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence

I disagree that Stoller is making a move. He's been number one with a bullet for years

this is how Utah's Congressional map deals with Utah's largest city, cracking it through to the middle into 4 different districts in order to deny it Congressional representation to make sure Dems get 0 seats

The midterm gerrymandering war and the Iran war alike show Trump's inability to imagine that the people he's picking fights with have any agency, any ability to respond. He loves his "you don't have the cards" metaphor but he's amazingly terrible at actually thinking about whether they do.

'69 Love Songs' is the Magnetic Fields' LP justifiably lionized as a big conceptual swing, but 1995's New Order-On-A-Fostex-4-Track 'Get Lost' is the great LP of theirs that I turn to most often. A counter-factual history rock where Roxy Music replaces rock. A prayer. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7AC...

Enjoyed hearing his Grand Old Opry shows on Willie's Sirius station, always more than one ace to keep. R.I.P.

If Trump always TACOs he wouldn't have attacked Iran in the first place. The meme generates a false sense of certainty about the delusional flailing of an erratic sociopath.

And why does Cooper have him on the ice with 3 minutes left in a tie game

Nothing subtle or complicated about what's happening. Did I mention the only refugees we're taking from the entire world are white people from South Africa?

Signing Devin Williams to be the closer seemed like a horrible idea, what went wrong

Dems have fought GOP to a draw so far in Trump’s redistricting war. The central part of Trump’s plan to rig midterms falling apart after new maps approved by voters in VA & CA. They didn’t count on Dems fighting back www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The era of unilateral disarmament is over www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2026/04/the-...

it’s the same exact thinking you see from these nitwits with the Iran war. they think they hold all the cards and cannot even conceive of their enemy retaliating, whether it’s by closing the strait of Hormuz or the CA/VA redistricting ballot measures

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

I guess bad faith arguments made by serial liars did not have the intended persuasive effect

The Virginia redistricting referendum looks likely to prevail by a modest margin. "No" leads by 4 points with what's counted so far, but major blue areas are reporting more slowly. The "yes" side is exceeding its benchmarks across the state according to the NYT map www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Please tell me someone on this site got video of Josh Allen leading a "let's go Buffalo" chant wearing an Alex Tuch jersey and then crushing a Modelo

“The possibility of a liberal median vote on the Supreme Court for the first time since 1970 was sitting there. Coverage of the 2016 election was dominated by a trivial story about Hillary Clinton’s compliance with email server management best practices. And no, I will never get over that.”

The intelligent play here would be to cut his losses, declare the loss as a victory, and then get back to picking out the curtains for the White House renovations, and fencing everything that’s been stolen from the Kennedy center. So that won't happen www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2026/04/what...

As results roll in for the VA redistricting referendum, a few final thoughts about cash moneys, the fact that Dems are actually letting actual voters decide on whether they get new maps, and what comes next if Team Yes wins (...lawsuits. It's lawsuits.) open.substack.com/pub/statehou...

Reading “Without Precedent” by Lisa Graves about the Roberts’ Court is excellent!!

No, it does not make any sense, but the US has decided to pretend that Iranian control over the Strait does not break the ceasefire, and Iran has decided to pretend that the blockade does not break the ceasefire.

I feel like Sun Tzu really missed out on "Invent Pete Hegseth and give him to the enemy"

For people who care about democracy, unilateral disarmament on gerrymandering is the worst outcome, and there is no serious dispute on this question. (Note that people wringing their hands about this aren't even pretending that voting no would mean the withdrawl of any existing GOP gerrymander.)

i don’t wanna dismiss this - we are definitely in a different epoch than 2006 - but i do wanna note that a lot of people who are going to vote D currently say they hate the Ds and negative partisanship goes both ways.

thinking abt this bc there is currently a controversy on tiktok where people are misreading and spreading a statistic from this article, saying that 62 million men were either in or interested in a telegram chat about drugging and raping their female partners when really it was like 1000 people max

JAY FEASTER VINDICATED

The devil went down to Georgia He was lookin' for a soul to steal He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind And he was willin' to make a deal But the people of the peach state had already seen his lame, tired act so they wouldn’t even go and listen to his pathetic, insipid, heretical lies

Levy's point that the Penguins are suffering because they're wearing Nashville's uniforms for some reason seems indisputable accurate. Huge uniform gap in this series

If the second Trump administration consisted of DOGE and nothing else it would still be one of the very worst in American history: www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2026/04/they...

I am not saying the guys running OpenAI are serial killers. I'm just saying the worldview they present, and the way they talk about their own actions, reminds me a lot of one of the most iconic serial killers in the history of film.

Revealing the internal deliberations of the Court is an unambiguous public good

We are spending billions to keep our entire navy in the Strait to fecklessly fail to open a waterway that wasn’t closed until Trump’s pointless war of choice closed it. He’s just burning your tax money.
