A big study that was cited as evidence that text generators are good for students has been retracted: www.linkedin.com/posts/ben-wi... www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Montreal had 9 shots tonight and won. Colorado had 9 goals tonight and won. Sports!

“As long as Democratic leaders associate themselves with AIPAC… [and] an AIPAC cut-out, the party’s credibility will be the greatest myth of all.” Josh Paul writes on the ’softer’ version of AIPAC, which is pushing lies about the US-Israel alliance. Read the full list: zeteo.com/p/debunking-...

I'm still furious that Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg launched this war against Iran.

Someone said these were the inverse of each other and I can’t stop thinking about it

Everyone else would have been fired immediately by CNN, but there's always affirmative action for weak conservative snowflakes. It's a double standard. Also, all of "warnings" when I was at CNN were due to conservatives being angry that I showed them up on TV. Scott was one of them.

Don't call it "expanding" SCOTUS. And, for God's sake, don't call it "court-packing." Call it **right-sizing** the Court. (There are 13 circuits now -- not the 9 circuits there were when it was set at 9 justices 157 effing yrs ago!) Or call it *modernizing* the Court. Thank you.

York scores. Flyers win 1-0. They advance to face the Hurricanes in the second round.

In tonight's Ragebait: It's not just Bari Weiss's CBS News. Another boss of a prominent news outlet is telling his employees that they need to learn to love Israel or find another place to work. zeteo.com/p/behind-the...

BREAKING: The House of Representatives reauthorized Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act for another 3 years. The government regularly abuses this law to spy on Americans without a warrant. Despite bipartisan outrage, it now goes to the Senate.

Schools in Milwaukee and Madison are closing for May Day, making Wisconsin the fifth state where students and teachers will be off on Friday (joining Georgia, Illinois, North Carolina, and Oregon). We hope you will join the nationwide day of economic disruption: www.mobilize.us/mayday/map/?...

RBG's refusal to retire ended Roe and now ended the Civil Rights act. The fecklessness and cowardice of the Democrats to push nominations will forever be a stain.

The Post analyzed the video. A security officer fired on Cole Allen four times. He missed each time. The video does not show Allen firing. Assessing other video evidence, an expert told the Post that there were six shots in all. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

Ally was the first Eric Swalwell accuser to speak on-record about what he subjected her to. I am so sick of this rape apologist POS Michael Tracey.

He murdered Renee Nicole Good. Shot her three times and then called her a “f*cking b*tch”. Her last words? “It’s ok dude I’m not mad”. He got three days administrative leave before being transferred to another state. No punishment. No accountability. No justice.

The Disney FCC Review is intended to have a chilling effect on journalists who think about using their First Amendment rights to critique Donald Trump. It is the latest example of thin-skinned, vindictive Donald asking himself, "WWPD?" #WhatWouldPutinDo?

The series finale of Dinosaurs was an emotionally brutal reflection on corporate greed and climate change, the entire family accepting the grim inevitability of death due to a handful of rich assholes making life for everyone else literally impossible. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Changin...

Who is responsible for the dramatic increase in violence and dehumanizing rhetoric in American politics since Donald Trump started running for president in June 2015? Who could it be? It really is a mystery.

Scoop: Kid Rock flew to Fort Belvoir this morning on his private jet & took a little joy ride on 2 Apache helicopters w/ War Secretary Pete Hegseth, according to multiple Army sources, & backed up by flight data. Apaches typically have 2 pilots, but they went up w/ 1 so the boys could each ride...

Here’s Rep Andy Ogles — who says Muslims should be kicked out of 🇺🇸, used 9/11 footage to attack Zohran, etc. — saying “we gotta tone down the dialogue” 🤔 He was then again laughed at and corrected by BELMONT students for mispronouncing “Kamala” (he blamed being from the South🤷🏼)

His own vice president compared him to Hitler.

By this same logic, Donald Trump bears direct personal responsibility for the murder of Melissa Hortman, the assault on Paul Pelosi, the guy who showed up armed at the Obamas, the attempted pipe bombing of several prominent Democrats, the January 6th rioters who assaulted cops, and many many more.

This was all predictable and will continue to be so

No one was shot and killed at the annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner Saturday night at Washington, D.C.'s Hilton Hotel. defector.com/everyone-sur...

If you're a producer for a cable news show, you should have a tight two-minute montage with a sampling of the many times Donald Trump has encouraged political violence, just waiting for the inevitable Republican guest who tries to pretend Democrats are the real problem here.

"a deranged man with a gun means the president should be able to build his gaudy ballroom" is the insane position of the republican party of america

10:00 AM: The justices were focused on whether Dems violated state law in passing the redistricting plan, and the outcome will likely be decided in how they interpret the text of the process as laid out by law. But as Dems pointed out, it would be unfair to override voters over a technicality.

I'll admit I was part of this. And will actually apologize for being shitty to @taylorlorenz.bsky.social

Just checked on X, and yeah. Also characterizing No Kings the same way.

"Do you regret your heated rhetoric?" "No. Do you regret your chilled rhetoric? Do you regret sitting on the sidelines as norms fell away and so many laws were broken? Do you regret pretending like this was all normal and you alone were savvy enough to see that Both Sides Are To Blame?"

People who were rightfully being vilified for their behavior this weekend are taking advantage of a horrific incident to cast themselves as heroes.

This puts the security debate in better perspective. I know this space really well. The guy wasn’t anywhere near the ballroom. He was basically trying to rush the security perimeter and failed. It’s a big complex with lots of different event happening at the same time.

Here's the initial block list of those who attended the WHCD tonight. Adding names as it becomes clear they were there.

How I hope the WHCA dinner goes

We need a ballroom in all of our public schools. And arm our teachers too! (GOP's new gun policy)

I've never seen people so jovial after a mass shooting attempt. Almost as if people know what was happening ahead of time?

Trump’s WHCD spectacle seems as strange as his Butler photo op. The Secret Service couldn’t have confirmed that quickly whether this involved a lone gunman or a larger plot. So if shots had actually been fired, why would the President return to the scene shortly thereafter?

It's pretty damning evidence. Doesn't support any of what law enforcement or "witnesses" claim. Instead we see a blurry person not visually armed running, then agents rapidly opening fire at him. Putting civilians and other agents in danger. No exchange of gunfire at all with the suspect.

Fox's Aishah Hasnie’s call oddly gets cut right as she says Karoline Leavitt's husband leaned over right as the dinner was starting and told her: "You need to be very safe…”

donald trump is most widely hated president in history its insane

Has anyone checked that betting site?
