Imagine interviewing a victim of torture and independently confirming the details of his torture and then being told you can’t broadcast it because the people who ordered the torture wouldn’t give their side of the story.

I think it’s pretty likely Bari Weiss quits far sooner than anyone expects because if there’s anything we learned from her tenure at the New York Times it’s that this lady hates working, absolutely despises it, and she probably had to send like four emails today

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.

The sociopathic tone of glee and mockery is bad enough, but that's really not the worst of it. He made up a claim that a Trump supporter had done it, *in order to say that would be good and justified.* Unambiguously telling his most insane cult followers that murdering his opponents makes him happy.

Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

We seem to have a problem with right wing Trojan horses in the Democratic party, particularly in the senate. First Manchin and Sinema, then Fetterman, and now this guy

If only there were previous indications that Harrison Butker might go too far right

1. Some good news at last. This week’s column is about the amazing thing a couple of us stumbled into three years ago, which we’ve now developed into a global research programme. It doesn’t change everything, of course, but it could help change quite a lot. + 🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Boomers: It just sucks so much that everyone gets participation trophies now, you used to have to show real merit to get an award Also Boomers:

Every legal story now is either Ancient Circuit Judge Delivers Crystal Clear 100 Page Rebuke To Trumpist Overreach or In Unsigned Shadow Docket Decision, 6-3 Majority Declares Trump Can Hunt People For Sport

Got a close up look at Trump’s medal

This dog was spotted politely waiting by a pizza truck. He doesn’t have to say what he wants. They already know his order. It is pizza. 13/10 (IG: lauren.bardini)

Today marks one year since the Dec. 3, 2024 martial law declaration that rocked South Korea and still reverberates today. What’s on my mind today is the grit of South Koreans who rushed to the National Assembly that night, in freezing weather, to demand a return to democratic government.

in the midst of our supposed campaign against Venezuelan drug traffickers the President of the United States has chosen to pardon the Former President of Honduras, freeing him from his long prison sentence earned for trafficking more than 400 tons of cocaine into the United States

for senior citizens it can mean so much to spend quality time with a young person, even if it's just a few minutes

it's happening

this is like that scene in office space where the consultants end up loving peter

Guys we know all about resistance, but today, our very own Zohran Mamdani taught us about RIZZistance, which might be even more effective

Team Mamdani leaving the White House:

Reporter: "You called President Trump a fascist. Do you think he's a fascist?" Zohran: "I said—" Trump: "Ye :3 he right. I'm a lil fashy boy :3"

Sorry guys universe is splitting open starting today

If your takeaway from today is that Trump is somehow sympathetic to left wing views or can be "fixed", or that MTG is "saying good things" and "could be an ally", you are a gullible mark, and you lack the ability to discern facts from your wishful thinking

This guy went to the Oval Office, almost got the President to say "yay socialism!", got the President to shank the likely GOP candidate for governor, and made a bunch of admin allies crash out and attack each other in a blow to their increasingly-fragile coalition Fuckin flawless

Zohran unlocked Trump’s Bubba mode

trump is, first and foremost, a starfucker

Trump is now defending Mamdani in response to loaded questions from Fox News. incredible scenes

Actual insurrection and pedophilia hasn't resulted in the GOP turning on Trump yet. I wonder if this might do it though?

“Would you feel comfortable living in NYC under a Mamdani administration?" Trump: "Yes, I would, I really would" lol eat it billionaires who swore they’d flee

New York Groove subscriber Zohran Mamdani has converted the president to socialism

TEN MONTHS IN: The national debt is higher. The trade deficit is wider. The inflation rate has worsened. The unemployment rate is up.

This will surely surprise most Americans today, but historians have recently discovered that before Donald Trump, it was actually incredibly rare for a president to demand the public execution of this political opponents and press critics.

Melissa Tran came here on a Green Card at age 11. She's since raised 4 kids, started a business, & is a beloved member of the Hagerstown community. Trump is deporting her, despite a judge saying she poses no threat. Is she the "worst of the worst"? Do you feel safer yet?

every epstein email is some creep complaining about MeToo and then being like “oh before i forget, any advice on how to use my position of authority to force women into sleeping with me?”

Yes, Mr. Madison, I get your concerns about fiendish foreign princes and such, but here's the thing: in the year 2026 the literal Pope will be eligible to run for POTUS while the mayor of New York City is not. Maybe go back to the drawing board and give that one another go. Not your best work.

Republicans no longer have any excuse to delay justice. Senator Thune must bring this bill to a vote, IMMEDIATELY The victims of Epstein's abuse & the American people deserve transparency.

This country always has me in I CAN FIX HIM mode 😂

If this picture was of Obama, you know @FoxNews would do three weeks solid on why the flag was on the ground. At least three weeks

Just how morally, ethically, intellectually bankrupt do you have to be to argue that 15-year-olds can sell sex but can’t affirm gender

Jesus Christ. This platform has been great (because of the users, not the mods/admins) but this is fucked up on several levels. Is there a better platform we should be considering moving to?

The media being complicit in this coverup is something I kinda already knew about but it is still enraging

Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

i was talking about Gender to some cis friends tonight and i kept thinking about this meme

Also, just a reminder, anyone emailing Epstein regularly after 2008 knows he's been convicted of felonies related to sex with minors.

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far. So much work remains to be done.

Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.

They lined up all their defectors in safe positions or who had nothing to lose and everyone else had time to workshop their little posts about how they don't agree with this
