Mamdani hasn’t been elected yet and he’s already driving criminals out of New York.

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

Mark Zuckerberg has a vision for how A.I. could be used in Meta's universe. But the actor and filmmaker Joseph Gordon-Levitt is here to point out a flaw in the technology: an apparent lack of guardrails around how the company's chatbot interacts with underage users. nyti.ms/3ILwCNo

Can we please stop wasting energy pointing out hypocrisy on the right? They don’t give a shit, dude.

i think every democrat who does a cable news hit should start calling trump the pedophile president

basically trump’s “If I Did It”

the thing everyone is going to have to accept is that the post-trump period, whenever it comes, will not and cannot be a project of national unity, it must be a project of partisan project of renewal, in the same way that reconstruction and the new deal were partisan projects of renewal.

the thing that makes me think this is different is that there is a genuine public groundswell around epstein in a way that there wasn’t with other trump scandals www.wsj.com/politics/tru...

oh this is interesting. i pretty firmly believe, just as a matter of observation and experience, that complaints about affirmative action are a psychological salve for people who aren’t confident of their ability to succeed

my regular reminder that many of the wealthiest and most powerful people in this country very plainly believe in eugenics

The ‘dog days’ of summer get their name due to their association with the Dog Star, Sirius, found in the constellation Canis Major. The first visible rising of Sirius occurs during the hot stretch from early July to early September. Woof.

you know, i’m not militantly pro city-run groceries — i think it is an interesting idea to pilot and try out! — but i’m getting negatively polarized into being a big supporter just from these incredibly vapid, brain-dead posts.

Anybody watching this Trump program knows that it’s all fiction & performance. His “instincts;” his “deal-making;” his status as “the ultimate CEO.” It’s utter fiction. It’s awful that media figures w/a reasonable level of sophistication pretend that the silly stories from Trump camp are credible.

the suffering caused by these cuts, relayed to us by people on the ground, is hard to fathom. makes the Musk chainsaw wielding on stage that much more unconscionable

the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

among other things i appreciate that mamdani can actually dress himself

One reason that none of the scandals have ever *quite* stuck to Trump is that media companies have largely not chosen to make them stick. They drop a carefully reported story under an anodyne headline, nobody reads it, everyone shrugs and moves on

The media’s inability to state facts when it comes to Republicans (and Trump) is partially how we got here. The plane is a corrupt violation of the U.S. constitution (not to mention a security risk). This is a fact. Full stop. It’s not up for debate with weasel words like “raises concerns”

Most Americans frequently use federal science information. But few are concerned that cuts to federal science spending could affect their access to such information, a new poll finds.

The Trump administration cut about $1 billion in aid to anti-hunger groups, according to Feeding America. It's put more pressure on organizations that distribute food to hold up their corner of the U.S. safety net, dipping into reserves and scrounging for donations to replace the food they had lost.

"Most successful first 100 days of any administration." I wonder what these two quarters have in common. 🤔 Only one of them had a global pandemic, so that's not it.

The thing that's been so aggravating about Trump -- has been visible, in fact, since a year into his first term -- is that he's a paper tiger. Appease him and he'll try to take everything from you. Punch him in the face, and he folds, because he fundamentally only respects strength

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

tired of people treating trump like he is anything other than an ego-driven simpleton (i wrote this, this is a piece about why he is nothing more than an ego driven simpleton.)

It is far past time for Google to stop prioritizing Twitter in their search results. When I search for the name of an athlete, to check the status of an injury, one of the first things I see should not be bogus "parody" stories from random accounts tying that athlete to sex trafficking.
