You guys, I’m not an economist I didn’t even graduate from college, though I do have an advanced degree (but not a fancy one) and even I know this is not a good sign

Hitler talked about Jews a lot, too.

Man, I keep missing all these raptures!

We can't talk about what's going on without talking about the deplorable state of law enforcement in this country and Democrats can't do that until they discard reflexive rhetoric like "Of course we have to respect the police." No we don't! Not when they act like this! And you should say it!

The White House may call it deregulation, but in reality, it's replacing written rules with unwritten rules. (Rule 1: "Don't upset the President.") It's swapping transparent, tested rules for secret, shifting ones. One set serves the public interest, the other reflects the President's whims.

The ISSF Junior World Cup just started in India and I dunno, man, that mascot looks super creepy to me... 😳

ICE denies using excessive force in Broadview, Illinois. Never mind the videos…

I totally agree with this.

Fearful Americans Stockpiling Facts Before Federal Government Comes To Take Them Away https://theonion.com/fearful-americans-stockpiling-facts-before-federal-gove-1819579589/

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot. one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

iunno who will see this, but for awareness: I emailed the GI Rights Hotline folks earlier, and they confirmed they can assist servicemembers who are facing adverse actions over "inappropriate" social media posts: girightshotline.org

LOST writer-producer Damon Lindelof says he won’t work with Disney unless Kimmel js reinstated. I’m hearing other talent weighing similar pledges.

A broader refusal of talent to work for Disney would be immensely disruptive. It's not just Star Wars and marvel. It's also 20th century studios, Pixar, and a plethora of other content. A creative boycott of Disney would destroy them.

I made sure to get my Canadian passport in time to travel to Germany this past Summer. It was the *only* ID I used while there.

Using comedy to support people in power is the opposite of what comedy is there for. Check out the new Factually! episode with @gianmarcosoresi.bsky.social » Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b... » Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/3H3P... » YouTube: youtu.be/zbq7dcSWi-c

Just now, 11 state and city lawmakers were arrested by DHS police on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza after a hour of demanding access to the ICE lock up on the same floor. @thecity.nyc

Holy shit, this is real...

Analysis | To get himself back on the air, Jimmy Kimmel must call for the execution of homeless people.

Yep

Release the Epstein files!!!

Don't buy the canard that this is about Charlie Kirk. Abusing state power to lean on corporate leaders and get Jimmy Kimmel off the air because he told jokes about the president and made him feel bad was always the plan.

We're at the point where the guy who owns The Onion is one of the last remaining champions of real journalism.

These people are insane. Watch your backs folks. Avoid MAGATS when and where possible. youtu.be/tvmGFq5OhhA?...

What the FUCK is it going to take to WAKE PEOPLE THE FUCK UP? The FCC is a government organisation - being wielded as a tool against people whom the President doesn’t LIKE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

So all those people whining at people not genuflecting sufficiently to Charlie Kirk are going to be just as outraged at this assassination attempt, right? Right? Hello? Bueller?

This is an extremely basic point, but one that bears repeating: in a law-governed society, the state cannot simply murder people it has identified as potential criminals. It does not matter if those alleged criminals are foreigners. If you illegally kill people, you have committed murder.

Perhaps what's scariest is the right’s insistence on mandatory mourning, enforcing it through threats—backed by the full power of the state—against anyone who dares to share truthful observations of who this man really was. trib.al/2S07rId

If this became a weekly series, it would run longer than The Simpsons.

Trump has filed a $15 billion lawsuit against @nytimes.com and several reporters for articles exposing his finances. The suit is part of the Trump admin's broader and rapidly accelerating assault on press freedoms. www.cnn.com/2025/09/16/m...

Pulitzer Feeling Increasingly Out Of Place In Washington Post Office

They got to him...

Let's not forget that those who point out that Charlie Kirk's quote about empathy is taken out of context are the same people who, not so very long ago, were sharing Barack Obama's "you didn't build that" quote.

He STILL won't get it. Because megalomaniacal as he is, he thinks money can buy him anything. He "bought" the US election. Then he tried Germany who told him to fuck off. McGregor withdrew after refusing his help. And now he's fermenting divisiveness in UK. Sickening.

I bet you didn’t know this!!

Legacy media and cable news reduced Trump's aggression against Chicago to a question of whether troops would be sent immediately. When he said he was taking his fascist military spectacle elsewhere, those media players declared the situation over—while waves of federal agents attack our neighbors.

Hmmmmm

Watching Inglourious Basterds on Blu-Ray and I can't help thinking that when people talk about Charlie Kirk being "civil," the whole point of the character of Col. Hans Landa is that he is unfailingly polite and civil even while committing the worst atrocities.
