127k and the leadership of this state applauds

It’s been a year since Donald Trump slashed SNAP funding in his “Big Beautiful Bill.” Here’s how many people have lost food assistance in each state. Alabama: -52,480 Alaska: -422 Arizona: -469,400 Arkansas: -18,549 California: -300,838 Colorado: -26,095 Connecticut: -33,599

Vance believes in nothing other than obtaining power for himself and enforcing his will on the public.

Happy 10th anniversary of this essay about the dangers of Donald Trump, written by... JD Vance. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

People don’t hate Trump because they hate their country; they hate Trump because they love their country.

the president’s biggest supporters in town for the celebration it looks like

it's crazy when you see a photo for the first time and recognize it's gonna be used as a shorthand for the era you're living in right now by historians in 100 years

The Trump family’s earnings, experts said, have moved him into an echelon of enrichment more associated with strongmen in Russia and Turkey.

They keep saying they want the Pope to stay out of politics but what they want is the Pope to weigh in to agree with their politics.

really hard to overstate just how dumb the last 20 years have been, lol

America's only three remaining industries are gambling, scams, and misogyny. And sometimes it's two or all three

my god

really cannot be emphasized enough that the drafters of the birthright clause very much considered cases analogous to undocumented immigrants and *included them too*

incredible scenes as there are tens of people at Trump's state fair to watch Sean Duffy on Fox News

Agree. Four of them do not believe in the Constitution at all. To them it’s just politics. Reform this court.

I am stunned that the constitutional question was so close. I thought it would be 6–3 or 7–2. It is profoundly disturbing that four justices would allow either the president or Congress to rewrite the plain text of the 14th Amendment. This is obviously a good outcome, but the margin is alarming.

NPR is calling the Mamdani-backed candidates “far left” which I guess is shorthand for “would like to give healthcare to their constituents somewhat”

The Democratic Party freaking out that Democratic Party candidates are winning is the most Democratic Party thing ever.

But thats not how this works. artists SHOULDN'T be shaping it, because its stealing from other artists (along with all the other problems). its not a tech that should exist and should be rejected by everyone. you shouldn't be demanding a seat at the table, you should be blowing up the table.

“Our relationship with our audience is something we don't take for granted” ok but it sounds like you do! sounds like you dgaf! "We'd rather have a seat at the table than on the sidelines” why do you want to sit at the griftershit table. why is that a table you are interested in at all.

Me at the A24 board meeting: We’ve got a brand beloved by young hip people and cinefiles, basically synonymous with “good taste” and “artistic vision,” in a time where both are hard to come by. What if we flushed that in the fucking toilet for a bit of money?

Oh now Thiel is talking about the "reproducibility crisis" in science, amazing Wait these guys are all myna birds, aren't they. They hear a few words said by someone else and they just grab them and repeat them without understanding. Now I see why they love LLMs so much.

On Day One.

trumps biggest interest in the strait of hormuz was how he can get a cut of the shakedown money

Dude looks like Nikita Khrushchev got sent to Hell and doomed to spend eternity selling used Pontiacs

The main reason I’ve become such a “air conditioning is an essential life saving technology” advocate is because I was horrified to find out how many people seem to think that letting millions die during heat waves without it is better “for the greater good” of slowing climate change.

A literal coverup is sadly predictable.

As I said yesterday, that tarp is never coming down. This is Trump’s petty revenge. If his name must come down, nobody gets to see the Kennedy name either. Trump is going to force a judge to make them take down the scaffold in the most childish malicious compliance efforts ever.

There is pressing urgency to stabilize things (along all sorts of different dimensions). And I think that a lot of actors (in a lot of different sectors) have a considerable amount of responsibility to intentionally work to inject stability pretty much immediately. We don't want this keg to blow.

Last night’s past-the-deadline removal of Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center squeezes into this. Looking at the way the whole thing went down (from the people making the decisions to the lawyers to the workers to the crowd) you can just feel the potential energy that’s being fed into the system.

"The 10 hours of erecting scaffolding wasn’t to strip the letters (something that 30 minutes in a boom lift could accomplish), it was to conceal the view with a curtain because Trump couldn’t handle the optics of the letters of his name being plucked off the building" bluevirginia.us/2026/06/satu...

there are almost 100k people watching just one stream and not a single letter has been removed! it’s after midnight on the east coast! if we must speak the language of the depraved, think of the revenue opportunities with those numbers. the people are salivating for any accountability whatsoever.

this is my pandacam www.youtube.com/live/aAhm880...

it does feel like at that point we should just start treating them like Smaug, which is functionally what they are

The prize for being the richest person in the world at the end of each calendar year should be 100% confiscation of all assets and living out the rest of your life in a dungeon. Good healthy reverse-incentive.

Follow the money.

Difficult really, to think of a single, more disgusting act a journalist can commit than lying to the public to justify someone being murdered by their government for activism. But this is who these people always were.

I Believe That NYC Can Kill A Man If They Boo Hard Enough

BREAKING: in May 2026, *every single one* of the 599 refugees admitted in the U.S. were white South Africans. In FY 2026, the U.S. has admitted a total of 6,665 white South Africans, three Afghans (back in November 2025), and nobody else. For reference, the U.S. admitted 100,060 refugees in 2024.

the one thing these people cannot countenance is being Accurately Described. all of this is happening because the internet provided a means for people to Accurately Describe them to their faces. and they lost their fucking minds

In other words, good old Bret finally feels the wind shift and flutters along with it.

I know I'm a broken record, but Trump *not* releasing his taxes as he promised and the IRS *not* auditing his taxes every year and releasing the results like they have for every goddamn president for forty years is the actual scandal. This won't outlast his term and should be fought right now

New Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte's father Mark Pulte was the third major bidder in the 2004 auction for the Maison de L'Amitie property in South Florida, alongside Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein.

There are not capital letters big enough for the WTAF

PETERS: Yes or no, do you think it's right for a president to approve disaster aid based on whether a state voted for him instead of the amount of damage in the state? This chart behind me is pretty dramatic MARKWAYNE MULLIN: That's not my experience of the president P: This chart speaks volumes

I was in Florida recently and I had to drop by Trump National Doral Miami to see the giant gold Trump statue. It got me thinking apocalyptically about all the different buildings/monuments/arches the president is desperate to engrave his name upon.
