Look, I know we’re all rightfully pissed about the current Epstein stuff, but you should really set aside some time and read this piece. There’s a reason “mitigating the effects of climate change” is one of my key policy positions.

Discussing a Women in the World conference about women's negative experiences with male colleagues, here's Krauss telling Epstein there should be a retaliatory "Men Of the World" conference featuring Bill Clinton, Woody Allen, Al Franken and Kevin Spacey. Weird!

We started Indivisible in 2016 because a future Trump appointee was talking about the WWII Japanese internment camps as a model for immigrants at the same time that Schumer was talking about finding common ground with Trump.

Writing the part of my book explaining how, under Clinton, Larry Summers made crushing the possibility of regulating derivatives his reason for being; derivatives crashed the global economy; Obama made him his top economic advisor; THE END. Much more depressing than writing about the Tea Party.

I’m only a state level candidate but I’d happily add my name to this list

Having no reason to hire qualified faculty is a feature, not a bug. www.texastribune.org/2025/11/10/t...

Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.

"Similar to the way that I terrorized Afghan villages during my time in the military following 9/11, ICE has been terrorizing my town." "The U.S. occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan has come full circle." #Illinois #USA #Iraq #Afghanistan #Deportation #EthnicCleansing #Military

it is almost as if someone was promoted beyond their ability

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

“My work is not done — despite my best efforts, there are still children alive and well in the state of Texas.”

if you put AIPAC in a room with Hamas, Hezbollah, and JStreet and you give AIPAC a gun with two bullets they're shooting JStreet twice

This is really weird and deeply embarrassing.

The NYT has a smaller audience than Ms Rachel and she reaches lots of normies who don't bother with the paper, this was probably not a good idea for them

the people who made this are such clowns that they included the time Peter Stuyvesant seized Jewish property, had it sold at auction, and petitioned the Dutch East India Company to expel the Jews in the years of “greatness”

Canada has just lost measles elimination status. The U.S. will undoubtedly follow shortly. Elimination means that there is no continuous spreading of measles within the country for a year or longer. Canada and the U.S. have blown it, and it’s largely the fault of the anti-vaccination movement.

This isn’t a new skeet from Serwer, but it still resonates bcuz there are so often a few Dems who just will not hold the line — even when surrendering persuades many voters the Dem Party as a whole can’t be counted on in the clinches. This makes it hell for us canvassers. bsky.app/profile/adam...

The Supreme Court on Monday rejected a call to overturn its landmark decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.

This is my favorite part of this cycle we've been repeating for my entire adult life: when they sit backwards on the chair for some real talk and explain that you're a fucking peasant who doesn't understand how things work.

this.

One of the things I find interesting about Mamdani is he can’t ever be president. Thus, he can’t be groomed onto the imperial pathway and into possible presidential aspirations like Obama, AOC, Bernie etc. And this could keep a more radical politics in his life. bsky.app/profile/orga...

The laws of war are not mere niceties. They are lessons from centuries of blood agreed upon to keep the world more stable. Violating them isn’t hero cop who cuts through red tape to get things done, it’s psycho cop who crosses lines in ways even the rule benders find appalling and must be stopped.

In the name of "fighting antisemitism," Indiana University appointed a Christian scholar to tell Jewish scholars what they can and cannot say - all while they invited Tucker Carlson to speak on campus. www.jta.org/2025/11/07/u...

Walmart, Kroger and Big Food Love SNAP Dollars—But Won’t Lift a Finger to Save Them msmagazine.com/2025/07/02/s...

"pausing the requirement to distribute full SNAP payments until the appeals court rules on whether to issue a more lasting pause." is given in the AP story and maybe it works out but what a fucking Calvinball edifice the Roberts Court has constructed where only lower courts let government function

I don't like to share too many of these videos because they're upsetting. However, I feel compelled to share this one so we can see what's being done in our name, and with our tax dollars. IT'S WRONG! IT'S IMMORAL! IT'S DEPRAVED!

Alan Dershowitz has killed himself on celebrity wheel of fortune

The Free Press: To understand the appeal of democratic socialism, we turned to Peter Thiel

If only the Speaker put half as much energy into governing as he does into avoiding work. He still hasn’t sworn in Representative-elect Grijalva, people are hungry, planes are grounded, and Republicans are on vacation. They’re showing you exactly who they are. Believe them.

Pictured below: ADL director Jonathan Greenblatt. I forget whether he's the one on the left or right. ANYway ... here is something from @remas.bsky.social, titled "The ADL Is Having A Mamdani Meltdown". And here is a gift article link: defector.com/the-adl-is-h...

Two of my favorite anti-fascist authors—Kurt Vonnegut and Thomas Pynchon—attended Cornell. What a debasement…

There is such a clear line from hunger to rioting all throughout history that it must be deliberate. They want an excuse for military occupation and if we won’t provide one, they will create one.

IQ is stored in the skin if you're racist and balls if you're misogynistic.

Intuit, parent company of TurboTax, donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration. Always follow the money.

The feed on Sora's gotten a lot darker as people figure out ways to get around the guardrails...

Republicans who are getting paid during the shutdown, are refusing to show up to work in congress are demanding that controllers -who are NOT getting paid, show up to work.

LGA Terminal B sent an email last night to its tenant airlines (United, Air Canada, JetBlue, Southwest, etc) that basically says "hey if you know wtf is going on, let us know?" Meetings between airlines and FAA didn't happen until *last night* for operational impacts starting *Friday*. Unreal.

people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up

Great @gbbranstetter.bsky.social read on how throwing trans people under the bus is not a winning political strategy and in fact the opposite is true. Democrats have an opportunity here to not be craven cowards succumbing to transphobic messaging.

What's the difference between ChatGPT and the HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey? ChatGPT has killed more people.

So Elise Stefanik is running for NY governor. She abandoned every principle she claimed to have in exchange for a seat on the Trump train. Here’s a thread about Stefanik, who is a serial liar, an ally of a Hitler admirer, and an opponent of sharing baby formula with migrant infants. 🧵 1/10

The US has more billionaires than any other country-around 750 to 1,000. Probably because the money that should go to wages and taxes goes in their pockets. Forbes said, “The 400 richest people in the U.S. are worth a record $6.6 trillion after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year….”

In an unsigned order on Thursday, the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to require U.S. passports to list travelers' assigned sex at birth. Actress and activist Laverne Cox responds to the blatantly anti-trans policy.

I really hope them stealing people's work is what brings down AI

"All but one of the 102 antisemitism complaint letters we have analyzed focus on speech critical of Israel." Civil Rights Act of 1964 "repurposed [..] to remake higher education in line with [..] right-wing political and cultural agenda." #USA #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #Protest #Education #Genocide

Here's Palantir's Louis Mosley, grandson of Britain's most famous fascist leader, talking about the importance of AI, if you aren't convinced yet that this is one big co-ordinated push towards the destruction of everything good in life. www.politicshome.com/news/article...

Honestly one of the worst, most disturbing paragraphs — on the basis of process, substance, and effect — I’ve read in a Supreme Court order or opinion in a very long time.

"DeSantis' call for public universities to 'pull the plug' on hiring H-1B visa holders has sparked alarm among faculty members, who say the directive targets workers who are legally authorized to be in the country and essential to the state's education and innovation goals." #Florida #USA #Education
