It's wonderful when two sociopaths with the mindset of serial killers find each other.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

It's All Congress Fault is actually the story of our time

What a fucking play call by the Lions. Holy shit, thay was so cool.

The NYT liveblog on the autism press conference is a fascinating read -- largely because it's written by health reporters and not political reporters. Look at how direct and appropriately shocked these posts are! www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

like i was saying

SCOTUS must be expanded and reformed to restore our democracy

Certiorari "before judgment" is how #SCOTUS takes up a full appeal *before* the intermediate federal courts have heard it. It used to be exceedingly rare. For instance, there wasn't a *single* grant of such expedited review b/w August 2004 & February 2019. This is the *23rd* such grant since then.

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

These findings in the new Washington Post poll jump off the page: Trump is underwater by 19 points on his handling of the economy (40/59) and underwater by 30 points on his handling of tariffs. By contrast, the same poll found him at +14 net approval on the economy in Oct. 2020.

In dissent as to the stay, Justice Kagan — joined by Justices Sotomayor and Jackson — lays out the lawlessness of the majority plainly. "Our emergency docket should never be used, as it has been this year, to permit what our own precedent bars." Order/dissent: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

i think one thing people have a hard time grasping is that the central figures of the trump administration are not bad as in "the worst republican blowhard you know," but bad as in "the worst people you have ever heard of." donald trump is a serial rapist whose best friend was a pedophile.

Naval officers, stop obeying illegal commands challenge.

Good God, my contempt is just off the charts.

this is the most Atlantic article of all time

This is the thing that’s so weird about unitary executive theory (if you try to think about it coherently, which you basically can’t) is that it seems to recognize Congress as the source of the executive’s power, but asserts that once given, that power can’t be revoked or regulated.

I think it's sorta funny. If national Democrats just went along with the will of the people there'd be a pretty normal election and Mamdani would have a pretty standard mayoral election of small national interest. But because they keep trying to push creepy Cuomo, he gets to keep making huge dunks.

A pickle commercial set to the song "Magic" by Pilot with the lyrics "Oh, Oh, It's Vlassic. You know." Is this anything?

this whole thing is idiotic but it's particularly worth noting that Trump was kicked off social media platforms after Jan 6, *before Biden was president.*

Zero chance Homan was alone and zero chance this was the only time he did it.

Jesus fucking christ

Im reading The Terror and the end of Sir Franklin is...yeah, man, that books lives up to its name.

The Watergate tapes were secret and the media knows it’s only a crime if the president is smart enough to keep it a secret.

Need Florida to get one goal-line stop here on third down and we could have our first Mario Cristobal Game Management Moment of the year

FINALLY. The Miami (OH) botched hold on the tying FG attempt as time expired that drew an "OH NO, DISASTER" from the ESPN announcer (h/t @dreyesceron.bsky.social)

jesus

Democrats need to seriously consider an impeachment inquiry into now-Judge Emil Bove if/when they take back the House. He led the brazenly corrupt Eric Adams quid pro quo. He facilitated the Tom Homan bribery cover-up. And there’s probably more! He was Trump’s hatchet man at DOJ for months!

Genuinely feels sinful.

I can’t repost so I’ll screenshot. This is an excellent point:

In an ABSOLUTE UPSET, Michigan 30, Nebraska 27 _IS_ a Michigan Scorigami! Win 1015 and a Michigan Scorigami. I never would have guessed that.

I am pleased to report that Hawaii Supreme Court Justice Todd Eddins has dropped another total evisceration of the Supreme Court. He says originalism is a fraud—and the Republican justices are shamelessly making up facts and history to impose radical Christian nationalism: slate.com/news-and-pol...

Probably several impeachable offenses in this truth social post alone.

Even if you take the most lenient possible interpretation -- that SCOTUS has made it increasingly hard to prosecute bribery and corruption -- you still have to ask what kind of crooked-ass administration hires a guy who just took $50k cash.

Also, remember it was a HUGE SCANDAL that Obama AG Loretta Lynch was accused of potentially interfering in an investigation? Funny how Fox News spent so much time on that but won't mention something like this... www.lgraham.senate.gov/public/index...

Trump criticizes Pam Bondi for not charging his adversaries quickly enough, in a Truth Social post that looks a lot like a DM. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

Hell of a job pulling out the win in Lincoln. I am absolutely sweating bullets.

Think Bryce could've gotten it into the end zone if he bounced it outside on that last play.

Big Ten refs, it is legal to call holding when Jaishawn Barham is the one being held. Penalties still apply there!

The catch should stand because it was awesome rule.

Just gotta do better and go win the game.

It’s oddly comforting when people who push deeply immoral public policy are shown to be horrible people generally. Like, it would be unsettling if Homan were a straight arrow who paid for operations for orphans.

early on i quipped that republicans have so internalized the natural rightness of their regularly winning power with a minority of votes that when they finally got a popular win it truly felt to them like an overwhelming mandate and i'm now kind of realizing that applies to everyone in media, too

According to French daily Le Figaro, President Emmanuel Macron and his government are considering closing the Israeli consulate in Paris, expelling members of Israel's intelligence services from France, and opening up a French embassy in Ramallah in response to any Israeli action against France.

the overwhelming @sickoscommittee.org game of the year

Fucking woof by Michigan at the end of the half there.

Dammit, Wink.

so this new york resident kept a $50k cash payment from the FBI but the question is did he report that on his NY income taxes?
