to SCOTUS: "we can prosecute the people he pardoned, or a future Democratic president can have them shot and then pardon the shooters. do you want that loop to start?"

This is a government agency tweeting “We are going to get rid of all the nonwhite people in America.” It is the biggest story imaginable. The news will probably ignore it

Something that doesn’t sit right with this article is that they portray Trump’s sycophantic cabinet meetings as part of a larger trend among rich people and not a complete aberration, even compared to the rising decadence of the upper crust

AI companies getting their bailout preemptively

this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit

On top of everything else, Nuzzi revealed a source??? This is all just absolutely batshit, and if they don’t retract all her articles and bar her from the industry, I don’t want to hear anymore theories from these people on why people don’t trust the media anymore — it’s pretty fucking obvious to me

Real life and Q Anon are converging at an alarming rate

It's like the vibe shift in the middle of Goodfellas after the Lufthansa heist. The momentum, excitement, glitz and glamor, etc. are no longer on their side, now it's trying to control the infighting, jealousies, competing visions and interests, key people slipping up and not following orders, etc.

How dare you accuse us of being Enron. We're Bear Stearns.

part of my pitch for future democratic military policy is "we should crush the special forces and double crush the seals specifically" they contribute little-to-nothing valuable to american defense and are riddled with war crimes and also just regular crimes

planned economy but it's just the president dictating what he wants to see on his television

Genius

Honestly I also struggle to care much about Trump calling for democratic politicians to be hanged for seditious treason. They’re the ones who haven’t treated him like a serious threat to our constitution and our country. This was the inevitable consequence.

Donald Trump and Stephen Miller are responsible for the current of racism and hostility to all Latinos in America today. From people scowling whenever anyone speaks Spanish in public, to the Indiana man who shot a Latina housekeeper who came to clean his neighbor’s house. These are all connected.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

one thing I am pretty convinced of is that the sons of the aristocracy that in another era might have been limousine liberals or Rockefeller Republicans or even Mitts Romney are now mostly fash

Of all the things I care little about right now, it’s Trump being mean to journalists. I’m more worried about poor immigrants being abducted and tortured than a DC journalist who got called names. Sorry journalists. Your colleagues have put you all in a position of deserving little of our sympathy.

I think it’s time for some serious antitrust enforcement for the car dealer monopolists

I genuinely believe this is happening. Sexual crimes, rape, human trafficking. All of these are a short stone’s throw away from the complete dehumanization of immigrants by Trump and ICE/CBP

Just think about this. Within the matter of a week we have gone from trying to get one single vote to allow Congress to release the Epstein files. Now we most likely have unanimous consent. Politics can change on a dime at any time. Never give up. This is just the beginning.

hey what if i use a machine that can't do math to help with my taxes

Fired Bryan federal prison nurse says Ghislaine Maxwell is receiving special treatment — and she has the emails via BCS journalism treasure @rustysurette.bsky.social www.kbtx.com/2025/11/18/f...

In case you missed it - a pardoned J6er has been charged with sex crimes against two children. According to police, he told one victim they could receive a share of the $10 million in J6 reparations he claimed he would be receiving.

Had a dream last night that JD Vance visited the White House east wing demolition wearing this

"I'm cheating on Ryan Lizza," the third note said. Stunned, I checked my ID. That was my name, I realized. And then, another realization: this note hadn't been intended for me.

mr president sir theres a story coming about how you intervened to help a sex criminal. no sir, not that sex criminal you helped….no not that one either…sir, please stop guessing sex criminals that you helped. ill give you a hint sir, hes a trafficker. no sir, not that trafficker a different one

So Harvard is keeping this guy, but Claudine Gay had to step down over ginned up plagiarism accusations and bad-faith accusations of anti-Semitism. Got it.

Looking to finish what they started.

"sympathy for some of the GOP's voters but contempt for their elected and appointed leaders" is the proper position for dem electeds, and instead we get "sympathy for GOP elected and appointed leaders, but contempt for ~Dem~ voters" it's truly insane fuck all these assholes

This is, quite literally, the concluding chapter from years of vice signaling as politics. There is no better evidence for how putting Trump, a charlatan and moral void, at the center of our politics for a decade has resulted in the literal rotting of the soul and character this nation.

MEESA PROUD TO BE ACCEPTIN THE NOMINATION OF DE GREEN PARTY FOR PRESIDENT OF THESE-A UNITED STATES

It's a revealing moment... J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost. The inconsistency reveals this isn’t about economics.

"Blending Family and Governance" is The New York Times' latest euphemism for this.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

This is almost exactly the "culture of honor" experiment in Cohen et al. (1996). psycnet.apa.org/buy/1996-017...

Fact of the matter is also that the Russians are now on an equal footing with the Ukrainians in FPV drones. Thanks to Chinese support of the Russian war effort. Ukraine no longer has the upper hand in the war of small drones.

it's really weird to hear the sanitized sales pitch for it too: "it will give you ubi and keep you fat and happy while it does all the work" - aren't these the same guys who think "raise taxes 2% and make buses free" is a wild fantasy of malign actors

The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

Listen to this Border Patrol agent cry about how he's going to be DOXXED after being arrested for drunkenly barging into a woman's restroom with a loaded gun, demanding a date from the woman inside, and then punching the arresting officers.

On the one hand, we have economics and finance journalists (whenever they take a break from breathlessly extolling AI) painting the AI bubble as “one of the most predicted financial implosions in history”; on the other hand, we see companies still spending like a drunken sailor on AI investment.

sports gambling leads to players getting massive numbers of death threats. this seems really bad.

That’s why they call it skull and bones

lol. the Epstein emails are now age restricted content on shitter.

New insult to life itself just dropped

This is also a way for Trump to reassure his administration’s many, many lawbreakers that he will do everything he can to try to shield them from state-level charges for their crimes, after he gives them broad pardons for their federal crimes

All facts

In summary

I'd say there's a 1/3 chance Larry Summers crashes out and retires from public life after these emails, a 1/3 chance he is investigated and convicted of money laundering or something, and a 1/3 chance he weathers it with no worse a reputation than he has today
