“Just one more thing…”

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

Every Dave Portnoy interview should just be the interviewer laying a hammer on the desk between them

Dems didn't brand "white dudes" as the "bad guy" as Portnoy suggests. We branded people who support a toxic, hate-filled convicted felon who abuses women and lies constantly about everything as the bad guys, and they just happen to be disproportionately white men. www.mediaite.com/politics/dav...

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans: Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet. So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

Oh. My. God.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

Whenever someone mocks “science for science’s sake”, I point them to discoveries like this one — which literally emerged from looking at common dirt. Seeking knowledge is a process and an ethos. The wider our horizons, the more we can see. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

I’ve actually been thinking about this a lot, the idea that there’s no way Epstein was the only one

I don’t know how much rightwing media you consume, but it’s fucking bizarre how blue hair is their universal shorthand for “liberal.”

I’ve had this theory, maybe desperate, that Trump’s bizarre malevolent charisma is not replicable. The people who’ve tried to do MAGA without him have failed. So once he’s gone, I think in the power vacuum, the movement splinters into squabbling factions. This does nothing to puncture that theory

This is an important new line being crossed. Trump isn't just pardoning the act of attempting to overthrow the government on January 6: he's pardoning *those people* for committing crimes generally. He may be creating a group of (federally) legally untouchable people.

This made me wonder about the etymology of quack. “…short for quacksalver (1570s), from obsolete Dutch quacksalver (modern kwakzalver), literally ‘hawker of salve’”

It took me a sec here because CSA can also stand for Confederate States of America, which is frankly just very efficient of them.

not the main point but it should be illegal to interview someone more than 3 times for the same position

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

My friend @drannieandrews.com will be Lindsey Graham's opponent. She is a pediatric surgeon who has performed spinal surgeries on children, running against a grownup with no spine. Dr. Andrews is poised to perform a full Lindsey-ectomy on the United States Senate.

A bus was stolen by a man in Canada who continued to allow passengers to board and even checked their bus passes, in what police described as a “joy ride.”

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."
