Lindsey Graham’s grotesque loyalty to Felon Trump has resulted in Americans suffering from a parade of countless horribles. He’s been in office since 1992 & it’s time for a change. That breath of fresh air is @drannieandrews.com who is now poised to unseat Graham. youtu.be/hMGMN1etqyE?...

Hey, fellas, before you write that white hot take about how rape is such a tricky thing and, I mean, who can really say what happened and, you know, maybe we should not be too judgmental, I'd like to remind you that instead you can simply shut the fuck up.

Not sure if you happened to catch Thursday's episode of The Daily. I was interviewed and talked about the extraordinary ways President Trump and his family have monetized the White House, based on a decade of reporting on the Trump family. Please listen & share www.nytimes.com/2026/07/09/p...

this is one of the many small changes Trump is making in his attempt to manipulate the midterms

They’re trying to deport the men who witnessed the killing of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. newrepublic.com/article/2129...

Which, I should note, is exactly what Mullin said he would do.

Graham Platner just posted a video claiming he "intends to withdraw" and that he's "suspending" his campaign. I think he's lying. I think this is strategy. It's Nixonian. Let me explain. (thread)

In rape culture, everything a woman says means yes and nothing she says means no. This seems to assert that though she said not to come over, said no repeatedly, struggled against Platner, an ambiguous prior comment constituted irrevocable consent. Not a shocking breach not to include it.

that statement was… something

Go-Go’s release their debut LP “Beauty and the Beat” 45 yrs ago today. “It all happened so quickly,” said Jane Wiedlin. “One minute we were playing clubs and sleeping on people’s floors, and the next minute we were the No. 1 album in America. We didn’t really have time to stop and think about it.”

Read my latest:

Vile: Mike Johnson just said GOP might try to undo birthright citizenship with legislation, which is unconstitutional. I've noticed a pattern: He and Vance are using sleazy new language to sell this as a trivial reform. The threat is very much alive. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2127...

Ignoring everything else, the correct team won tonight #USMNT

I said this after the first allegations last month, when it was unpopular to say, and I’ll say it again: It was incredibly selfish of Graham Platner to run for office knowing this was in his background. Too much at stake for this. He said there wasn’t more to come. That was a lie.

this dynamic described by jenny racicot is, as i understand it, very common among progressive women in maine. they’ve been put in an impossible position and feel like they’re tanking platner’s campaign when in reality he did that on his own by being a violent and reckless person.

The red card against Team USA’s Folarin Balogun wasn’t good—but FIFA’s decision to overturn it after hearing from Donald Trump was even worse, @sallyjenx.bsky.social argues.

i will not forget the men who downplayed the earlier allegations of abuse against platner and said accepting them was just the price we had to pay to gain control of the senate. i hope they feel like fucking assholes.

I wrote about Trump's tainting of the World Cup @thenation.com Feeing bad for a likable USA team that now in the eyes of the world is in a no-win situation. Win, it was rigged. Lose, good riddance. They didn't ask to be the ugly Americans. But all Trump touches.... www.thenation.com/article/soci...

I get so emotional baby 🎶

are there any US fans pretending this is legit, kinda feels like the two lanes I'm seeing are "I am bummed that my team is benefiting from this corruption" and "I like that my team is benefiting from this corruption"

NEW: The ICE office that customarily probes employee misconduct is being refocused to investigate ICE critics, opening hundreds of "doxing and threat" cases and subpoenaing tech companies to unmask anonymous posters. Detention facility inspections, meanwhile, are plummeting. by @regret.bsky.social

Happy birthday, America.

That's DOCTOR CONGO to you.

Republican president Donald Trump has made $1.4 billion from his cryptocurrency business since returning to the White House. But Democratic congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh had the funds to pay $12 for Culver's shrimp. Shame on both parties.

Basically the Supreme Court is 5-4 on whether America is white man's country

The Slaughter case, overturning precedent, returns us to a spoils system where a president can “clean house” every four years, destroying our professional, independent civil service.

Alito’s dissent in the vote counting case makes perfect sense if you think of it from the perspective of a braindead fox news viewer who thinks dems are “cheating” when more vote get counted and a republican lead in the count is erased.

I don't want to hear another word about how much white European visitors are enjoying ranch dressing while team officials, Africa's top referee, and now one of the world's most celebrated fans are turned away from the World Cup. The USA is an utterly unfit host — it's as simple as that

White House enhancements that Trump said he would pay for, like replacing a walkway and repairing masonry, have in fact cost taxpayers $689,232. The admin has slashed spending on many national parks and redirected money instead to D.C.-area improvements — "a quiet crisis unfolding."

🎯🎯🎯

Trump starts by having his billionaire buddies take over the media. But I would not put it past him to try this next.

Goodbye Scotland. Your football was average but your vibes were immaculate.

England woke up and I just received a “nearby tornado warning” for West Central Clackamas County. Never a dull moment.
