Fam, is it good that every single Dem election/primary seems to feature one candidate who says "AIPAC" like how Lois said "9-11" in the Family Guy episode where she runs for office?

My latest for MS Now on JD Vance, conspiracy communicator. The Constitution doesn't give the VP a full-time job, so each has to carve out their own niche. Vance chose to push conspiracy theories on podcasts:

@nannygoat7-11.bsky.social appears to be adapting QAnon for use by the pro-fascist leftists who dominate political Bluesky. It has 22.6K followers. Most of the large, anonymous political accounts here are pro-fascist leftists.

I love how Trump's 2024 campaign was based on the premise that EVERYONE ELSE was just chomping at the bit to engage in a pointless, endless war in the Middle East, and only Donald Trump could save us.

This was meant as anti-Jewish hate speech. But it was so stupid, the theater owner had to explain what he was trying to do.

A group that advocates for private school funding programs estimated that last year, states allocated $10.6B to these programs, up 29%. One company encouraged churches to tap into public funds, calling them "God's new gold mine."

Meanwhile, at the other place...

People on Al Gore's internet honestly believe AIPAC gave Haley Stevens 50 Million? This is her campaigns FEC filing. She's got like a mill and change. www.fec.gov/data/committ...

This is how dangerously unfit for the intelligence job Pulte is: wanting Trump's speech to reveal the names of intelligence agents. www.msn.com/en-us/politi...

The Trump team's intervention to free the Tates from Romania in early 2025 was a bridge too far for some on the right. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/u...

Aw, I love this for them. -The brothers were arrested on an extradition request from the U.K., according to a person familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. www.tmz.com/2026/07/18/a...

College Democrats of America are absolutely disgusting for inviting this antisemitic misogynist who thinks America deserved 9/11 as a speaker at their convention. These kids are not alright.

Trump describes "probably the most unforgettable moment" of the World Cup: when he called FIFA's Gianni Infantino to pressure him to overturn the USMNT red card. Infantino just stands there smiling while Trump bloviates, heaping praise on him: "Gianni made yet another of his many good decisions."

HOT DAMN!!!!

The group William Lawrence co-founded, the Sunrise Movement, is both a dark money group and a super PAC. They "meddle" in races.

*taps sign of this 10-month old thread because the candidate who was saying this shit is now mayor & talking out of his ass again about starting an international incident that would empower the jackass foreign leader* *proceeds to go back to ignoring this specific nonsense*

Politico found the guy who’s running those “trump gas stations” He works for the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was exposed recently for having attended yet another previously undisclosed event "alongside Jeffrey Epstein," writer Bekah Day reported Friday.

Re: cyclospora, Taco Bell having ethics and going "you know what, it's always the fucking lettuce, why don't we just pull that until we know what's going on" resulting in all the outlets going "LETTUCE SOLD AT TACO BELL LINKED TO EXPLOSIVE DIARRHEA" is a fantastic way to discourage ethics in future.

A quick word on Taco Bell: That's where we found the suspected lettuce, and it's not bc Taco Bell is gross. It's bc Taco Bell is REALLY GOOD at tracing product! Keeping track of exactly where they got their ingredients, & exactly what restaurants each shipment of ingredients went to!

For fuck’s sake, what is the matter with this horrible woman? For the love of god, please PLEASE just fuck off and leave LGBT+ people alone.

oh good. apnews.com/article/boei...

hmmmm

That's four Benghazis FYI

Oh snap. The Gabbard family got issues... www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2026/07/18/t...

A concerning development surrounding an incredibly obscure process Congress set up to deport some people with connections to terrorism. It comes as the Trump admin has reclassified many gangs as “terrorists,” and accused some innocent people of being gang members.

Btw, Wegman’s lettuce is from Taylor Farms. Since TF won’t tell you who they sell to

New: Late last night, Taylor Farms quietly posted an official recall notice We now know that the parasite-linked iceberg lettuce was shipped to Walmart & food distributors in 27 (!) states It was for some reason still being sent out up until Thursday July 16 www.consumerreports.org/health/food-...

This person claims to be a "former DOJ and FinCEN attorney." I was following her! Beshear can't appoint a new Senator to replace McConnell, even if McConnell were dead. Has everyone lost his or her mind?

Vulcan, a rare-earth magnetics firm backed by Donald Trump Jr.’s 1789 Capital, lands a record $620M conditional loan from the Pentagon’s Office of Strategic Capital in a $1.4B bid to curb China’s magnet grip. theintellectualistofficial.substack.com/p/pentagons-...

Trump is building a White House helipad. He sought no approvals. Such projects usually require a developer to navigate a complex web of zoning laws, airspace regulations, and environmental impact studies — while negotiating with town councils and fighting off community pushback.

NEW: If there were any Republican hopes that Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) might change her mind to vote for the SAVE America Act, she made it clear in no uncertain terms that she will never. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The Republican nominee for retiring Rep. Jan Schakowsky’s congressional seat:

Imagine if a woman president spent most her time raving and crying about an election she lost 6 years ago. Emotional. Unstable. Hysterical. Unfit to lead.

Commander of Blue Angels is asked about the flyover incident yesterday. He described it as “an unsafe situation” and “we will have a heavy review of what happened yesterday to ensure we don’t put ourselves in unsafe situations again.”

“I know what it costs to tell that truth as a Republican. After January 6, I voted to impeach Trump. … A threat mailed to my home promised to execute me, my wife and our five-month-old son.”

We ain't never seen one of their faces so fast. Hope mfers are taking note.

All of this. We weren’t telling you there was a fox in the henhouse because we’re obsessed with foxes, we were trying to warn you.

idk if any of my fellow Mainers from other counties are seeing this but most would-be delegates are not saying who they'd support but a fair number, and I can't count but seems about equal are for Jackson or Shah but almost none seem to be for Bellows literally none for anyone else

A sign of major underlying problems: Hillary Clinton having to boost an anti-Democratic Party group.

“However, even I could no longer doubt that these were not Germans with an odd religion, but a separate race. Now wherever I went I saw Jews, and soon I could easily tell them from other people.” - Adolf Hitler, “Mein Kampf,” chapter 2

“Pillow Man” Mike Lindell, Trump’s pick for Minnesota governor, isn’t registered to vote in Minnesota. Texas lists him as an active registered voter—Star Tribune

Our two investigations into Madison Square Garden are now unpaywalled and free for anyone to read.

This video is fake AI slop, and it looks like even the text in the post was AI-generated. @yourdigitalbrain.bsky.social should be reported and blocked.

A source tells MS NOW that Todd Blanche told Epstein survivors during their meeting, "The FBI has the power to open investigations, not me." "I'm just the attorney general," Blanche added.

It’s worth noting that Taco Bell identified the source before the FDA did, and promptly pulled it from their stores. The FDA didn’t even name the source until Taylor Farms outed themselves, and hasn’t issued a recall. Basically, Taco Bell is now a more reliable authority than the FDA.

It's the Taylor Farms lettuce. The Taylor Farms outbreak. Earthbound Organics is Taylor Farms.
