Standing ovation for Rep. Beatty, who sued Trump over the renaming of the Kennedy Center, took him to court, and won!

The effort to rewrite January 6th is not about history. It is about future immunity. The Big Lie was never just about the last election. It was rehearsal, permission structure, and mobilization for the next one.

It's not often that a living man gets such a vivid preview of how he will be mourned.

It was already funny, but now we're in Death of Stalin territory or possibly in uncharted space beyond that

People hate Trump so much that a crowd is gathering at 10:30 on a Friday night just to see his name removed from a building This is simultaneously hilarious and incredibly depressing

Today is the anniversary of Loving v. Virginia, the Supreme Court decision that legalized interracial marriage across all 50 states. It’s important to remember the progress we've made as we celebrate this historic win for love and equality. Happy Loving Day, everyone!

One of my favorite artists has died... David Hockney. This is my homage to his work... such pure, simple lines that bring so much complexity with them.

"...more fluid relationship to housing" is a strange way to say "experiencing homelessness," but that's evidently what these techbros are proposing. For US, of course; not for THEM - don't be silly!

A warning for America: White nationalist groups—including one recently platformed in a light-handed 60 Minutes report—are openly celebrating the violent attacks on immigrants in Belfast and suggesting their followers can learn from the rioters’ tactics. (Link below.)

EXCLUSIVE A lot of attention was (rightly) paid to the role Elon Musk and Tommy Robinson played in inciting the #Belfast riots. But few noticed the critical role play by a small Ulster youth club linked to the fast-growing US white supremacist Active Club network www.wired.com/story/a-whit...

Release the Epstein Files, of course, but spare a thought for a trafficking empire of possibly equal scale, involving Trump, his admin, & foreign gov't leaders, *happening right now.* You knew Tate was a creep. But it's bigger than that. Heidi Blake reports. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

wow, just…wow This reminds me of that scene in The Big Short when Steve Eisman asks, “Why are they confessing?” and Vinny Daniel says, “They’re not. They’re bragging.”

Amazing: KPMG wrote a report describing the successful use of AI by businesses. But the case studies turned out to be AI hallucinations. giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

Tonight's moments of gravel bliss

The former, top elected Republican in Tarrant County (Texas’ largest red county) is putting out on an ad urging Republicans not to vote for Ken Paxton. Ad will air tomorrow on the radio in Houston, where the Texas GOP is holding is convention.

Jesus Christ, if that isn't the whole fucking thing.

I know Calvin’s dad is already having a moment, but every terrible “outsource precious and fleeting moments with your children to tech so that you can spend more time on your work” pitch makes me think of that one strip I never really cared about as a kid, but care a lot about as an adult.

This has been going on my whole adult life and I'm 70. I caught on to this BS when Reagan said it. Why are people still voting for repubs? Trickle-down is one of their signature policies.

95% of CDC workers say Americans will die because of federal cuts to the agency. Virtually all staffers (99%) say reductions in staff and lack of leadership have left the agency unprepared to respond to a pandemic or other public health emergency. ow.ly/UTK550ZaH3c

Also, this is not even operable, let alone real, despite his social media post, until 1) the Iranians release an official statement that both contradicts & pantses him publicly & 2) he makes another social media post that contradicts this one. It's all just war as market manipulation/pump & dump.

I was an early adopter of Google! I was a fan! I used to say "don't be evil" in conversation!

The violence in Belfast is a reminder of something I don’t want to take for granted: The fascists here hoped the response to the depredations of ICE would be similar, with people turning in or attacking their neighbors. That it was the very opposite is worth remembering in this season of despair

The 2026 World Cup puts a global spotlight on the U.S. – and two visions of America are competing: one that shuts people out, and one that leaves a seat at the table for everyone. We stand in solidarity with our partners to demand ICE out of our stadiums.

This is worth watching and sharing. #Crypto

Let's assume, for argument's sake, that the Knicks really did, unlikely as it seems, win Game 4. The problem is that many, many, MANY of us simply cannot believe it. It seems for all the world like cheating. This matters, & is going to matter more.

@mondomascots.bsky.social Hokkaido really does have the most unhinged mascots of Japan There’s also Marimokkori, a portmanteau of marimo (Aegagropila brownii, moss balls found in Lake Akan) and mokkori (onomatopoeia for the tent made by an erection)

“…compare the nutrition in a pound of beef to a $9 bag of assorted bolts & screws, and I would tell you that beef still packs a powerful punch.” - Rep. Dusty Dipshit (R - Cowtown)

Trump knew he was going to be booed at the Knicks game. It's why he went! It's why he smirked as they booed. (And then slept through the game.) Here's my short analysis of why he wanted to be booed. You can also see my cat, Joey. youtube.com/shorts/8ZZK6...

Alejandra doesn't complain much, (which I really respect), but this behavior by Ben Ryan towards her where he narrates everything she posts as if it's news is uncomfortable, unbalanced, and has a dark, menacing undercurrent.
