If Virginia Democrats follow through with a new 10-1 congressional map and a couple of other Dem states make small changes, Trump's gambit to rig the 2026 maps will be remembered as an epic blunder.

Thread.

I can’t wait for Matt Gaetz, Jack Posobiec, and Laura Loomer to get to the bottom of this at the next Pentagon press briefing

It’s weird that news organizations like the BBC are covering this as if it’s a real thing with a real process behind it—and not clearly some nakedly invented “participation trophy” by a corrupt organization to curry favor with a corrupt and easily manipulated man-child. www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

As awful as this, the focus on whether the woman was complying obscures the more important issue: in a democracy, there should not be armed agents demanding to see papers of every passing person.

NYC: “I’m born here! Kings County Hospital! Suck my d*ck!” Trump’s ICE goons grabbing brown and black people. Bounty hunters. Racial profiling is all they do.

The Nobel Prize committee should announce the World Cup winner tomorrow

Trump loves corrupt Democrats. Menendez can’t be far behind right?

really find it hard to believe that he’s been on the plane every time she has

If Trump and Musk had a falling out, and if Musk is no longer involved in politics, why is the Trump admin using levers of US foreign policy to get Musk’s company out of well deserved fines? This is the moment, Europe. Stand up for yourself, your laws, your freedom against foreign interference.

Given that removal by Congress is a practical impossibility. What recourse does the public have against Supreme Court justices? That take private payments/gifts with impunity. They rule without even written opinions at times. They should be the target of extreme public coverage and scrutiny.

“She showed up as scheduled, and when she arrived, officers were asking everyone what country they were from, and if they said a certain country, they were told to step out of line and that their oath ceremonies were canceled.” www.wgbh.org/news/local/2... @gbhnews.bsky.social

Feels very much like a “Would you like fries with your ketchup?” kind of Friday night.

Ooof. The OL is broken this week. Williams out indefinitely and now the other T and our best G too.

Really the only thing FIFA is qualified to award a prize for is corruption. It makes more sense if you view it through that lens.

If so, it is quite possible that the suspect reached this belief by consuming media produced by the current Director and Deputy Director of the FBI.

lol the ACIP committee let Aaron Siri speak for some 90 minutes and cut off CDC experts and scientists off after two minutes (sometime yelling at them to shut them up). Incredible stuff.

We need to talk about the massive loophole that the Supreme Court just carved into election law over the shadow docket—giving states a free pass to enact patently unconstitutional voting rules within nearly *one year* of an election. A stunning new limit on judicial review. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Exactly. The new U.S. National Security Strategy is much worse for Europe than most people had imagined. Europe is described as a bigger threat than both China and Russia, and they outline the need for regime change in Western European countries as part of a civilizational struggle.

RUSSIA GETS: Reduced economic pressure. THE UNITES STATES GETS: The possibility Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner can make money in Russia at some point in the future. UKRAINE AND EUROPE GET: Screwed.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

I refuse to give that greedheaded libertarian space in my head as a hero. But the sonofabitch has been consistent on extrajudicial killings by presidents since al-Awlaki and if he keeps this up, I going to be really pissed off at whatever measure of grudging respect I'll have to supply.

We are so far off the playing field here we can't even see the stadium.

This should be Trump, Elon, Russ Vought, and Mike Johnson’s legacies.

In the story linked above, Florida prison officials let a man's prostate cancer advance and spread until he was paralyzed from the chest down. When he wrote a letter begging for help, an official responded: "This is not an emergency." No one covered this lawsuit except me and Prison Legal News.

Go back in Andy Reid's past, and he's been through a year like this before. More on a newspaper headline from 19 years ago today, two KC doppelgangers and a close AFC rival. All could give the Chiefs some hope their season isn't done: www.nytimes.com/athletic/685...

Postgame show is now in your inboxes, ICYMI live!

OK I’ve put together the list. Shame on all of them: Ford CEO Jim Farley Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa General Motors plant manager John Urbanic National Auto Dealers Association Chairman Tom Castriota Transportation Sec Sean Duffy Deputy transportation Sec Steven Bradbury 1/2

WV Sen Shelly Moore Capito ND Sen Kevin Cramer Missouri Sen Eric Schmidt Fla Rep. Vern Buchanan Tenn Sen Marsha Blackburn Texas Sen Ted Cruz Ohio Sen Bernie Moreno Missouri Rep Sam Graves Pa Rep Mike Kelly Texas Rep Roger Williams Ohio Rep Troy Bolderson Michigan Rep. Lisa McClain 2/2

The people (using the term loosely here) smiling and nodding as Trump goes on that racist ramble.

Dylan Harper scored 16 points off the bench, logging his 3rd consecutive game with 15+ points. 7 of his 16 points came in the fast break and he had that key pull-up three late in the 4th with ORL going under on the P&R. substacktools.com/sharex/ts8k0...

They reportedly want to open an enterprise investigation. Here is an excerpt from the relevant portion of the FBI manual about when you can't start an enterprise investigations

I need a poster of that Luke Kornet pose after the game winning block. Wow

Imagine if just one of them said, "Mr. President, I came here to support a policy related to our industry. But I cannot stand here and listen to you denigrate people in this way. It's racist and it's wrong. If my shareholders disagree, they can have my resignation. But I cannot be part of this."

The CEOs of Ford and Stellantis, as well as senior executives from other auto manufacturers, standing beside him while Trump goes off on another vicious racist rant about African immigrants. Not one of them had the courage or the dignity to walk away. bsky.app/profile/just...

i think we should chase these people through the streets

In an era where billionaires have bought and ruined just about every reputable news outlet, it’s worth supporting an outlet that doesn’t pull punches or shies away from the truth.

Sometimes I feel like they can’t possibly be more openly and explicitly racist……..then they say “hold my beer” and here we go:

Once again in re: the utterly abject poverty of the “Democrats Must Not Talk Funny because they are Alienating Real Folkz” Discourse™️ that we have suffered through in the last year while the Republicans keep Doing A Fascism & calling people “vermin” & “morons” & "piggy" & this hateful nonsense.

MORE Breaking on MS NOW: Pete Hegseth refused an interview request for the Pentagon Inspector General's investigation into Signalgate, according to two sources who read and were briefed on report. Hegseth would not turn over his phone, a source who read the report told MS NOW.

Stupid is our chief export

Both @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov are COMPLETELY unfit for their role in the Democrat party. They both need to be removed from leadership and hopefully Congress entirely.

They are beating people who maybe once had a broken taillight and sending them to foreign slave prisons while freeing the worst fraudsters and every corrupt pol. The juxtaposition is so stark and appalling.

There are plenty of areas where I wish the Democratic Leadership would engage with the Republicans in a more symmetric manner, but pardoning corruption is not one of those areas. Jeffries is not worthy of a leadership position and should be ousted

Important: WaPo is doubling down on its reporting on Trump's bombings, asserting expressly that the second strike was ordered "when" the two survivors were "detected." Hegseth is suggesting he didn't see the survivors, but the question remains: Were they visible, or not? Time to see the video.

“Critics say” Trump’s remarks on Somalis were bigoted? JFC what are you doing?

Bluesky, the niche website for whiny leftists that doesn’t matter in the real world, is now potentially flipping elections

Harper has a Tony Parker vibe…..im supremely confident whenever he’s running full speed toward the basket. If this dude starts draining 3s look out
