Why the fuck are we still paying federal taxes?

Elon Musk incited a riot in Belfast. Elon Musk incited families getting burned out of their homes.

Rod Dreher has lived in Budapest since 2022.

Our government only works if we hear from you directly. Come to the next government efficiency hearing tonight, Wednesday* and Thursday and tell us what we can do better. Sign up at nyc.gov/COGE. *guaranteed entry for any Spurs player.

David Brooks calls Platner a morale degenerate. The same man who left his wife of 28 years of marriage for his research assistant who is 23 years his junior. Inez Stepman and Linsey Fifield both who accused Platner without evidence founded the group woman for Kavanaugh. Stop buying the BS people!

Earlier today rapid responders reported federal agents detaining someone on Grace & Olcott in Chicago. A nearby resident got video of an unmarked SUV striking a red car at high speed in the residential area around 10:24 am. He then described seeing men in tactical vests on scene, one marked "ICE."

Nobody does it like the Krassensteins

honestly the idea of releasing partial election results before all the ballots have been counted is insane on its face. there is no reason to do it except for TV. government should not be indulging in such things.

his bulbous ego isn't capable of de-escalation and he's too stupid to understand how anything works, so Iran is just going to dog walk him toward the midterms while Axios publishes a story a week parroting false claims that "a deal is close"

Look how fast they took Trump’s face off the screen after the crowd erupts in boos.

Los Angeles County literally has a fully transparent vote counting process - the entire count is livestreamed online. This commitment to transparency makes zero difference, mainstream press still credulously repeats GOP info bubble claims of fraud anyway.

Okay here is my rant for today: 40 years in healthcare. Nurse and paramedic. I’ve lost so many patients because of health insurance. I mean wtf? 🤬 Last patient I lost was waiting for dialysis. His insurance company wouldn’t cover it ! How fucking mad do you think I was?

i'm pretty convinced that every brain dead and liar rightwinger is talking about the LA mayor race being rigged so they have "justification" to rig or cancel the 2026 or 2028 elections

The climate crisis is real. We should be pushing for renewables. Instead, the world's largest banks have committed nearly $1 trillion to the fossil fuel industry. Our country, our way of life, the very planet we call home, is being held to ransom by bankers. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

If you credulously do a segment about the vote in California in which you don’t say the president is lying, you’re spreading disinformation to your listeners.

Politicians in the US are deathly afraid that Americans might ever see a Chinese EV.

🏀 BING BONG - Mamdani is putting New Yorkers first - by announcing a free watch party at Bryant Park - giving New Yorkers a place to come together & watch the Knicks game tonight.

It's easy to shrug off the idiots claiming that the incredibly accomplished politician Spencer Pratt was cheated out of a rightful win in Los Angeles. But they're going to make these same claims in November, so we need to carpet bomb this conspiracy out of existence right now.

Maybe now is a good time to discuss how MSG, monosodium glutamate, is actually partly responsible for the proliferation of the upscale taste we call "umami," and that anti-MSG pearl-clutching, none of whose health effects are borne out by scientific study, is really just weird anti-Asian sentiment.

'The record-breaking freight train of warmth that has crossed the undersea Pacific since April is now arriving on the shores of Peru, forming El Niño Costero. That has caused summer-like temperatures in Lima, despite it being the start of winter' Ben Noll [x]

Disappointing to see even Paul Simon is now promoting this awful technology.

honestly this is nuts, they're establishing an 8-hour security perimeter around the most used transportation hub in North America, so one guy can attend a basketball game

The mental toll of forcing podcasters to attempt to hold real jobs continues apace

I know what those treasonous fucks are all about. Many of them were probably at the Capitol on January 6th. They need to be classified as a terrorist organization and shut the hell down.

"Something remarkable happened in April. For the first time in history, wind and solar generated more electricity than gas across the entire planet. Not in a country. Not in a region. Globally." Tons of great news here from Danny Kennedy (via @billmckibben.bsky.social's newsletter, which rules).

One of Ken Paxton’s former defense attorneys just endorsed James Talarico. That should tell Texans everything they need to know.

The America 250 stuff feels very pizza party after layoffs coded.

This is an outrageous story. A farmer donated 87 acres to a small Texas city on the condition it be used as a public park. Years later, the farmer has passed away, the city sold the land to a developer, and now it will be the site of a 135,000 square foot data center www.404media.co/a-farmer-don...

It has to start somewhere It has to start sometime What better place than here? What better time than now?

This is protectionist bullshit and we should be better than this. arstechnica.com/cars/2026/06...

apparently the Mexican government has backed a new super cheap EV van, 100 percent made in Mexico, that looks sick as hell www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

screworm outbreak is another good opportunity to remind americans that government is what protects us from things like this and not the magical free market. want safe food? government, bitch.

I hope Spencer Pratt ends up in 5th place as a salute to Riley Gaines and whatnot.

“The technology is simply too dangerous for law enforcement to be using at all,” EFF’s @adamdschwartz.bsky.social told @actionnewsjax.com. “More than a dozen innocent people have been arrested by police because of errors with face recognition.” www.actionnewsjax.com/news/local/...

IKEA didn't build renewable generation to power 1.47 million homes because politicians told them to. They did it because the economics stacked up. With much of the investment already paid off, savings of over half a billion USD per year on electricity costs, the fundamentals become hard to ignore.

WOW - Trump crashes out & cuts his interview w/ Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged "You're either crooked or you're stupid. I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her" "I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads

A player on Iraq's World Cup team was held and questioned for nearly seven hours at Chicago’s O’Hare airport, an Iraqi official said

I blame the democrats on this one.

This is treason

Any time a Spanish speaking government does right by its poorest the New York Times summons the ghost of United Fruit

www.theguardian.com/football/202.... This is bullshit. Country's should pull out of the WC if this is how players get treated #News

No wonder the entrenched bureaucracy hates him to much. He's showing America that things REALLY can get better when you work on behalf of everyone, not for the Epstein class.
