RFK Jr said "I'm just gonna dip my toe in!" And things went horribly awry...

The people who downplay the seriousness of the Nazi tattoo by claiming it's a normal thing for a Marine to get while on leave (it's not) are being extremely condescending to the actual working class people they claim to represent.

Sickening and un-American. Watch authoritarianism work.

Some conversations are worth revisiting—not because the science has changed, but because fewer families are hearing it clearly. As questions around newborn vitamin K have resurfaced, here’s what every parent should know about one of medicine’s most effective preventive interventions.

The interview with the consultants who recruited Platner is wiiiiild. Really feels like a parody. And imo a revealing indictment of the supporters who are still standing with Platner. Buying into a shallow aesthetic of populism at the cost of all else. These are the kind of people they trust.

It is not a crime in America to touch the Reflecting Pool People have been doing it for decades If Davey Hearn can be charged for that…any American can be charged for anything We @democracydefendersfund.org & WLG are not going to stand for it @cnn.com👇

For those who don't know (other white ppl?), this is more administrative racism; pseudofolliculitis mostly affects Black men and other people of color, so ending permanent shaving wavers will make the armed forces more white

Under RFK Jr., the CDC made state reporting of Cyclosporiasis optional. The CDC itself was recently reported to be “running on fumes”. The result is a huge and growing outbreak across 29 states. For context, Michigan usually has around 50 cases per year. This year, they have 1250.

Dear Congressman @bera.house.gov, You admit the war is illegal, which means POTUS is breaking the law, which means you have a constitutional duty to impeach him. and your response is a social media post???

NEW: Lawmakers, election officials and pro-voting advocates warn Trump's firing of Election Assistance Commission leadership is a blatant attempt to meddle with voting ahead of the midterms. Without commissioners, states will lose a key source of federal support just months before the election.

Mitch McConnell was complicit in fascism. He destroyed the US Senate and stole Supreme Court seats. Let's not pretend otherwise. If you're a Democrat who doesn't want to call it like it is, how about you stay silent instead? Just like you do on genocide, anti-Muslim & anti-Black violence.

Small business owners with “progressive values” would rather destroy their entire business than allow unionized workers. How many more times am I gonna have to see this play out before it can’t happen anymore

the dccc is attacking the sunrise movement as a dark money group, implies that having a 401k makes you a filthy capitalist pig, and outright says that not voting for a then-adamant israel supporter is a betrayal of progressive values

As a result they are shutting down instead of acknowledging the union. Throwing the workers that live paycheck to paycheck onto the street. I will have fundraisers later but for now please flood their Instagram. Cafe: www.instagram.com/babysonfirec... Union: www.instagram.com/bofworkersun...

Any company pulling this shit should be expropriated and become worker-owned. Same for game studios getting bought and shuttered: you don't want them anymore, cool, they own them now.

I know we are encouraged to avoid friction or discomfort. We are "protecting our peace" and "doing self care." We don't read anything challenging. No horror please; I live it. We have our algorithm of cozy vibes now. This is a continuation of that. And it is robbing us of what makes us human.

Why this matters: 1. AirBnB was a shit product from the start, and had less to do with technology than exploitation of loopholes in real estate and contract law and regulation. 2. The John Birch Society is the modern root stock of racism, disinformation, and authoritarian thought in the US.

As early as today, the Trump admin could move to terminate TPS for El Salvador after 25 years. Without Congress acting, around 170,000 people who've been living and working legally here since 2001 might be forced to leave. The economic disruption to DC metro area could be huge.

there is infinite money for weapons, non-educator vice chancellors of nothingness, and tech-grift corporate welfare but zero money for teachers, libraries, tuition

A lawsuit alleges that ICE beat a man, causing his existing disabilities to worsen and get new ones. Once he was in ICE detention, the lawsuit says, he was mocked by detention staff and didn't regularly get his medication. New from me at @motherjones.com. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

These newer brands basically blitz the art influencers with free products and get a lot of buzz generated. Paul Rubens paper is junk, their watercolors are ok but are $40 a set with no refills offered. No truly pro set fails to offer open stock refills.

There's a specific kind of New Yorker who wants the city to remain hostile and shitty because they think that surviving it is what grants them legitimacy, and that kind of New Yorker believes it because they're deeply insecure that they can keep up with the competition

Don't you guys get it yet? Are you willing to admit he is a threat to democracy and needs to be removed? Say you want the House to send impeachment articles to the Senate. Let's 👏 go 👏

If these reports are accurate, removing every remaining commissioner just months before the 2026 midterm elections is an extraordinary step that demands an immediate explanation from the admin and raises profound concerns about political interference in the institutions that support our elections.

Cartoonist Ruben Bolling has been absolutely killing it, and here's another one

I did. I asked if he believes in God? He said yes. I then said God doesn't believe in him. He then hung up. Fair.

In case anyone is wondering how I "clocked" Platner, it was the fact that he is a literal mercenary with a Nazi tattoo. Maybe keep that in your back pocket

ICE agents must be tried for the murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo.

And now the fact leaks out that he was not the intended target of ICE's interception.

This was the one that pushed me over the edge from reader to paid subscriber.

it's so vital to have journalists who cover the video game industry, so we have full context on shit like this
