One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.

Our competitors/colleagues at the @miamiherald.com posted an explosive investigation a few days ago showing the DeSantis administration misappropriated more than $35 million in state funds. Now, the Legislature must do its job, because DeSantis won't police himself. Our editorial (gift link):

Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans. Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills. Americans must fight back against billionaires who put profits over people.

@dbnewtondoors.bsky.social Follow F1? Can you please explain what’s happened to Sir Lewis?

Trump is an infirm, sundowning grifter owned by a collection of notorious criminals and it's not even a secret. If this were a functioning country we would have already ended this.

BREAKING: WELL, WELL, WELL! Newly unearthed footage shows Pete Hegseth saying EXACTLY what the six Democrats said in their video that prompted Trump and Hegseth to hysterically smear them as traitors! You must refuse illegal orders.

To be very clear: Kennedy's team is messing with a vaccine which has led to a 99 percent drop in the incidence of hepatitis B, which kills, early and painfully, 25 percent of the children who get it.

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

A point of nuance here: "masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable" is how lynch mobs are described, not state-sanctioned executions.

@nytimes.com editorial board: "Many lower courts have responded heroically to Mr. Trump’s ill-founded efforts to centralize power and weaken democracy." But the Supreme Court is "allowing Mr. Trump’s power grabs" instead of stabilizing American democracy.🎁 www.nytimes.com/2025/12/06/o...

Your daily reminder that peace and unity in Europe will only come with a Russian defeat. It's almost like this is Europe's war of independence. Either we disappear or we win. There isn't really any middle ground.

Trump figured out murdering people would get the Epstein files out of the news cycle.

Were the book sales worth it @jaketapper.bsky.social? You really are an insufferable sellout.

Reminder: This vast consolidation of wealth and power at the top has not been due to neutral market forces. There’s no such thing as a “free market.” It is designed. It either advances public purposes or it serves the monied interests.

looking forward to either a 6-3 decision that trump as God Emperor of the United States can change the constitution by fiat or a 5-4 decision that 14th amendment means what it says with a dissent from thomas that actually the constitution recognizes donald j. trump as sovereign

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Rich Lowry is a bigoted piece of shit whose existence makes America a worse place. He's vapid patrician gentility used to mask gutter racism. He's a Brooks Brothers pocket square used to wipe Nick Fuentes' ass.

bsky.app/profile/verm... A less pronounced version of this dominated the National Narrative 18 months ago.

Statehood for D.C. is an ethical obligation at this point, required to protect the rights of our residents to govern ourselves against such out-of-state troops being sent to patrol our city.

It’s important to note from a military perspective that if a subordinate is about to give an unlawful order & his senior knows about it, it’s also a requirement for the senior official to stop him from executing it. And then counsel/discipline him. So there’s that, too.

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels. Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on. And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking. Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy. It's a power grab.

“He once boasted that he would “stuff the drugs up the gringos’ noses.” He accepted a $1 million bribe from El Chapo to allow cocaine shipments to pass through Honduras.” Now Trump set him free. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/29/n...

Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell said "This strike sent a clear message: if you traffic drugs toward our shores, the United States military will use every tool at our disposal to stop you cold.” Why then did Trump announce a pardon of Juan Orlando Hernández, the ex-president of Hondurus? 2/2

One reason we failed in the past is bc we didn't build up popular opposition to the crimes, whether it's torture or drone-killing or even attacking Congress. Now is the time to do that, not after Dems retake power.

Go Chuck!

if "God give me the confidence of a mediocre white man" was an angry alcoholic.

They're not hiding it, folks—straight up neo-Nazi advertising, from the font to the language to the 11 stars for the Confederacy. Then you have the DHS openly using white nationalist language of "remigrate", which means ethnic cleansing. This is who MAGA is now.

1. This is clear and unambiguous Russian genocide of Ukrainians. 2. ANY negotiated agreement which sees ANY Ukrainian territory remain occupied unambiguously blesses and legalizes Russian genocide of Ukrainians. 3. We have a legal duty to STOP genocide!! euromaidanpress.com/2025/11/27/r...

We should Glonzo this

He's hiding the Epstein files for the same reason he hides his medical records and jobs reports. And it's not because they make him look good.

You know, apropos of nothing in particular, and although I haven't researched it yet, I strongly suspect that a president starting a foreign war to distract from his extensive ties with child sex traffickers is probably a high crime or misdemeanor under the Constitution's impeachment clauses.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

When it’s fishermen they’re pretending are low level drug runners, they’ll bomb and then circle back to finish off the survivors. But someone convicted in a court of masterminding a massive cocaine trafficking scheme? Well, he’s wearing a suit. Come on.

President Donald Trump announced Friday that he was cancelling executive orders signed by President Joe Biden’s autopen. What is this newfound BS?

AMERICANS DO NOT WANT TO ETHNICALLY CLEANSE THE NONWHITE POPULATION. Only a tiny cabal of dedicated white supremacists led by Stephen Miller wants that. But Americans are being lied to by their cowed, billionaire-controlled media about what their government wants.

Release the Epstein files.

And Fox will stop covering the story in three...two...

“I just want to find 11,780 votes”. If you do, you’ll be a hero. If not, you might face criminal charges. Naw, that’s not election interference.

Nativists love to talk about the costs of immigrants, but each ICE agent is making $213,000 in total compensation to destroy our rights, freedoms, families, friendships, neighborhoods, and economies. Worse than a "welfare queen." It'd be better to pay them to stay home.

Sigh Listen. Vote for democrats.

It says a lot about our country that the FBI had no interest in interviewing Brett Kavanaugh but wants to talk to Mark Kelly.
