The biggest story in America is a president who has completely lost touch with reality. Who thinks the FBI let all the January 6 rioters into the Capitol, that he really won the 2020 election, that the Iran War is going well. Who, when occasionally confronted w reality, panics.

2027 5* Ryan Hampton commits to the CAYTS!

Really enjoyed the Ken Pomeroy set at #Railbird. High efficiency, but also need to factor in that it’s a large festival so SOS plays a part. The per/40 numbers of songs and stage banter gave it a +38 overall Net Rating.

Railbird gates are open, so re-upping our picks for the Must-See acts for this weekend: www.countryuniverse.net/2026/06/04/r...

New York sports fans are so passionate, I think it's a real shame that the NFL hasn't managed to find a way to give the city a professional football team.

Can’t wait to tell everyone around me this fact when REK is singing “Corpus Christie Bay” later tonight at #Railbird

If people really don’t think the left has a positive vision for masculinity, I really wonder what they’re talking about. I feel like Pop Culture is littered with them: Most of your super heroes for example. Every Bill Lawrence TV show.

"The funniest possible outcome of the AI mandate era is about to be HR departments discovering that 'sincerely held religious belief' under Title VII has a much lower bar than they assumed, and Pope Leo handed every Catholic employee a written excuse" www.businessinsider.com/worker-got-r...

Being Cassandra sucks. Those of us who said “the oppo on him is gonna be devastating” don’t get to take any comfort from being right; neither will we be listened to the next time.

#CUBS WALK IT OFF!! FINAL: Cubs 7, A's 6.

"In February 2026, the business faced backlash after Vaughn told employees to "leave religion and politics at the door” after she received a note from a customer who said he was treated disrespectfully because he was a member of law enforcement. ... Sales fell 31% in February and 33% in March..."

#NBACats going head-to-head in the #NBAFinals 🍿 Good luck to Karl-Anthony Towns, De'Aaron Fox, and Keldon Johnson.

The arc of the moral universe only bends towards justice if we bend it. There's no karmic comeuppance for fascists. There's just us. Community and hard work and a willingness to to take risks and fail.

In the last 10 years I have watched right-wingers & billionaires systematically warp, dismantle, and degrade mainstream US journalism. Almost no one has tried to stop them. Almost no one has spoken up. (@jaketapper.bsky.social scolded Obama when he tried.) Now it is all rubble.

I’ve watched this 500x

"We need truth more than ever", stress Margaret Sullivan (@[email protected]) in her blog: therefore she explains "how to find it amid political lies and AI slop". A very useful read for everyone! https://margaretsullivan.substack.com/p/we-need-truth-more-than-ever-how

This is one of the best covers I’ve heard in the live lounge in a loooooong time:

To be clear: the lower court said the map intentionally discriminates against black people in violation of the *constitution* (not just the VRA) and the MAGA Majority of SCOTUS is saying "that's ok now."

Get the popcorn ready 🍿 🗓️ Tomorrow, June 3 ⏰ 8 p.m. ET 📺 SEC Network

I just went 77-5, think you can go 82-0? www.82-0.com/share?id=LbS...

Pope Leo:

The best 3-point shooter in college basketball will play for the Kentucky Wildcats next season.

Pope finally wins a recruiting battle! GO CAYTS! #BBN

Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals. As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them. Go Knicks.

Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.

Ossoff: "While you pay more for everything, Donald Trump wants your tax dollars for what many are calling the Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Ballroom."

The Assassination of Stephon Castle by the Coward Alex Caruso

Call him Victor Hugo Wembanyama cuz he makes his opponents “miserables”!

I worked the booth for my school district today at Lexington PRIDE and it was a blast. It was so awesome to talk to so many FCPS students, staff, and alums!

a ban on any public funding of sports facilities for privately-owned teams, or the Olympics, or the World Cup…

Here is Tom Steyer personally supporting high school trans athlete AB Hernandez. I don't think I've ever seen a candidate as brave as Tom Steyer in his explicit support for trans folks. It says a lot that it took a self funded billionaire not dependent on donors to do it.

the printer keeps jamming, and worse, it's playing Phish

Meiselas: Katie Miller has been posting about you. I want to give you the opportunity right now to respond. What do you want to say to her? Paulina Mangubat, Content and Creative Director for @TheDemocrats: I want Katie Miller to know that her husband is an ugly fuck.

The Spurs Nuns are BACK! Watch Game 6 of OKC/SAS on NBC/Peacock 🍿

Olivia Rodrigo addresses the babydoll dress controversy… 👉 stereogum.com/2500375/oliv...

Campos: While I want to thank CBS news for funding this generous gift towards my education, I want to acknowledge how the recent direction of the outlet stains the legacy of Mike Wallace, the namesake of this scholarship.

Our leaders are sitting in our public schools today. Sit down and listen to them and you'll see why we should be investing in them.

“Here's a stat for you — If somebody abused women & girls with Jeffrey Epstein, they are literally more likely to be hired by Trump's administration than prosecuted by it”

For those in Lexington- KSBAR is closing. Looks like it will be open for game days in the fall. Not sure about basketball or anything else.

Lived in Kentucky my entire life and last night I watched Bill Meck on Channel 18 warn a bunch places I never knew existed about a tornado: Dan Zag Korea Artville Ezel Pekin Pomp

Ossoff: "What those who build ballrooms and monuments for themselves, what they hate the most is when people hold them accountable at the polls. So why Fulton County? I submit to you it is bc the fact Black voters were instrumental to his defeat might be more offensive to him than the defeat itself"

How much have things changed since 1999? Here's what celebrity row looked like for Game 4 of the Finals - the last year the Knicks made it that far until 2026

Pope Leo XIV called for robust regulation of artificial intelligence and for its developers to work for the common good rather than profit, issuing a sweeping manifesto on safeguarding humankind as the technology impacts everything from work to war.

Moreno back to UK! #CAYTS #BBN

I have been saying for years that Democrats should run against Republicans on the issue of corruption. Make fighting corruption the centerpiece of their hopefully populist campaigns. Well, if they don’t run on corruption this year, against Trump, then they deserve to lose.
