this is you in meta’s pervert glasses

fuck em up Todd

Bari Weiss' new head of podcasts will fit right in with all the other right wingers. Good grief.

I’m excited to be bringing this repeal forward, and to be able to move our city away from a policy of paying workers less to do the exact same work as their peers simply because of their age. A public hearing will likely take place on August 5th, with final adoption possible as soon as August 12th.

Can't do 1 or 3* without expanding and rebalancing the Supreme Court because if you try Sam Alito will crumple your cute "end citizens united and gerrymandering" law up and throw it in your face. * or probably 2 but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am losing my mind. Chat isn’t a search engine. this isn’t normal. framing it as normative is slimy. Tone, vibes all bad.

hello Oakland is it cold on your side of the bridge today?

nearly every word of this ("biographer," "write," "his" "books," et cetera) should be in scare quotes but that would be unsightly

These guys are such losers. Their manhood is threatened 24 hours a day.

none of my business but this guy looks like Sméagol six months after he finds the ring

It's becoming more frequent. Homan's threats of more ‘bloodshed’ unless Democrats ‘shut their mouths’ are being carried out.

I was there, and one thing that went unexplained is what happens if/when this SCOTUS simply invalidates the future constraints that the panelists themselves are arguing must be placed on future authoritarian presidents to save the republic.

As long as the Brennan Center takes this stance, it is a fundamentally unserious organization that will never achieve the pro-democracy reforms it claims to advocate, because the Supreme Court it protects with thwart those reforms. bsky.app/profile/adam...

"Liberalism for the 21st Century," brought to you by the Institute for the Study of Modern Authoritarianism, featuring a speaker who suggested hanging women who have abortions.

Notably, the Westones are a racially diverse band. Each AI-generated person in Meta’s ad suggestions — again, with the implication that the image would “perform” better and lead to more conversions — appeared to be white. www.coyotemedia.org/meta-ai-has-...

Trump's previous requests for state level co-operation involved him asking state officials to manufacture votes to overturn the results of the election.

If you missed today’s Trump address, here’s all you need to know: He’s still a pathetic loser.

"documents do not back up his claims" is just a wildly inadequate way to describe a guy who lies all the damn time about everything and who has been lying all the damn time about this particular topic for a decade and who has a obvious self-interest in lying about it and who is definitely lying

WTF, WaPo ”*Democrats say* [Trump] is recycling debunked claims.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The Bar is not in a great place.

This speech is quite literally an impeachable offense. The President is trying to undermine faith in US elections and to delegitimize the elections of public officials.

… Remember when Trump’s campaign chairman Paul Manafort gave a bunch of internal polling data to a Russian intelligence agent? I was just thinking about that for some reason.

Coincidentally, I wrote this today: bettybarcode.com/2026/07/16/t...

If Joe Biden had given a speech this incoherent, the NYT would call for his resignation in tomorrow's paper

who could possibly have predicted this shocking outcome

How Politico’s Negligence and Ignorance Helped Float Another DHS Lie talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/how-p...

Donald Trump, a man whose approval rating is 22 points under water, is going to give a speech tonight the premise of which is that he could not possibly have lost an election.

Now @apnews.com has a deeply reported story confirming the recently-hired ICE officer who shot a man in Maine had serious mental health issues and a long history of violence against women. This comes after ICE slashed hiring standards and rushed some into the field before background checks cleared.

Stepping on your closing here, Perry. Sorry about that. Hopefully, interested readers will click through to see how you got there.

in some box somewhere I still have a bumper sticker I got at CPAC 1995 that parodied the Clinton Gore 1992 logo as "Commie-Bore," just in case you are wondering if the Right's attempts to portray Democrats as communists are even a little bit sincere.

Have you been hoping for a brilliant and hilarious look back at Knocked Out Loaded, the 1986 Bob Dylan album remembered by virtually no one and loved by *precisely* no one? Well, friend, you are in luck: @paranoiacs.bsky.social has you covered: theparanoidstyle.substack.com/p/driftin-to...

I think this is PROBABLY right, but I also don’t think it’s entirely coincidental that he’s built a massive loyalist paramilitary force, radically reshaped the actual military, and had federalized troops deployed in the capital for the past year for no intelligible reason.

The next Congress needs to nuke prediction markets from orbit.

Reporters used to insist on putting in every extreme weather story “While no one event can be attributed to climate change …” That was never true & always a CYA statement designed not to offend Bug Oil & its political allies But now it’s 100%, demonstrably false

any one think america's elites are getting more ethical?

I’m interested in any political imagination for accountability. It has to be proactive & retroactive. It has to be spectacular. And, ideally, it would leave so many of them broke that it actually becomes a deterrent. Being poor is truly all they care about not because they don’t care about prison.

yes please

everyone involved in this should be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong by the weekend

Yet another Kalshi offering that serves no legitimate economic purpose. It's not possible to make a rational bet on this without material non-public information. It's a market solely for fraud by both regulators and corporate insiders, and everyone connected to it in any way should go to prison.

insane clown president

What the actual fuck? Look, I'm sorry to keep saying this, but the president is clearly a dementia-ravaged necrotic husk of a man whose addled rants bear no actual resemblance to reality and I, for one, think that is concerning.

live your life with the confidence of a dude who shows up in JOHN FOGERTY's mentions to tell him he didn't write Proud Mary

Democrats need to offer an amendment to cut funding for this in the appropriations bill. Also, the need to refuse to sign off on the name change to the department of war

maybe he meant a "High Tea Department of War" (I have no idea what that would be, but it would be less stupid.)

what is this even

Katie Miller (says she) watched ~300 episodes of Grey's Anatomy in a month. That's 10 per day, every day. At 43 minutes per episode, that's 7 hours of Grey's Anatomy every single day for a month. That is too much Grey's Anatomy, and also Katie Miller is an overt bigot who can't write for shit.
