One thing re today’s acetaminophen disinfo fiasco: it reminded me a lot of the bleach injection presser from Trump I, which both at the time and in hindsight was one of the real shark-jump moments of that term. People don’t like medical craziness

Tylenol ain't taking this shit From tylenol.com

Per @nateturner: “Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty.” —Hannah Arendt,

Once more: the best evidence shows that Tylenol taken during pregnancy is not harmful. **This question is settled.** The benefit of reducing discomfort and fever is extremely important at a time when the fetus is developing.

Lmao. There’s no winning with conspiracy nuts. Each has their own specific flavor of a theory and anything less than total vindication will always result in a melt down. RFK Jr can’t do anything to appease short of outlawing all vaccines, and that would make him an expendable liability to Trump.

Congrats again to Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson. Very glad we were able to keep our eye on the ball.

Conservatives love to encounter a very basic tenet of Christianity that's incompatible with conservatism and go "this sounds like something my BITCH WIFE made up"

Stop trying to argue with the logic of the right. The right purposefully employs inconsistent logic to specifically in order to make people show it is above consistency. It is purely about dominance. And it also has the added benefit of getting its foes obsessed with arguing instead of fighting.

oh that’s weird what’s happening in Phoenix today

This is just abysmal writing. I read it several times and he doesn't articulate what the principle actually is. The closest is "the purpose is to give cultural institutions a reason or an excuse to row back toward the great American middle," which is not really a "principle"

Tom Nichols at The Atlantic Festival: Donald Trump's use of the military as his "personal militia" is "everything George Washington feared about what the U.S. military could become."

What a great fucking metaphor they didn't mean to employ

Covid is gonna shape American politics for years and years because it was the first time most Americans were asked to make sacrifices and they lost their minds because of it.

Kirk's memorial simultaneously running at the same time as the noon football slate means they don't actually want anyone to watch or have no idea what most of their voters actually do on Sunday.

GWAR crossed a major line at riot fest

This is what looking at twitter any time in the past three years has felt like tbh

Cardinal Timothy Dolan failed to report direct admissions of rape by multiple priests, lobbied against extending the statute of limitations for sex abuse, and moved money off the church books to hide it from victims of sex abuse. In case you were wondering.

None of this is normal. All of it is impeachable.

“Pelayo said her dad described being held in a room with at least 150 other men as ICE officers constantly yell at them and call them slurs. He also told his daughters detainees are only given food and water based on good behavior.” These are the conditions at the site of yesterday’s protest.

White House border czar Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

Oh my god

Again, in the hearings last week, Kash claimed this attack took a lot of money and so had to have outside funding. That's horseshit. Tyler Robinson allegedly drove his Dodge Challenger 4 hours to Orem, shot Kirk with grand dad's gun, then drove 4 hours home. He shot Kirk for ~$70.

genuinely believe that a large number of political, economic and media elites do not realize that nearly half the voting public did not vote for trump

Media execs have fallen prey to a propaganda and harassment campaign that has completely divorced them from what people actually want right now. Both their insular information environments (group chats, podcasts) and ambient noise (Twitter reactionaries) have put them in a very stupid bubble.

currently at record-high search interest for canceling disney plus. pulling kimmel is a bigger deal to the company's bottom line than any of the "woke" scandals of the past 5 years. i think news & entertainment corp execs need put more work into understanding their audience, & get off twitter

i am so proud to get to vote for this woman and have her represent me

Happy birthday Daggerfall, 29 years young!

Earlier this week, Sinclair said it would replace "Jimmy Kimmel Live" with a documentary about Charlie Kirk during the Friday time slot that Kimmel occupies on its ABC affiliates. Friday evening, Sinclair pulled the documentary and aired "Celebrity Family Feud" instead.

Simon and Garfunkel In Central Park, 44 years ago tonight. “The breakup that happened after Catch-22 was never repaired,” said Simon. “It was just a bandage put over it. But the bandage was such a luxurious bandage – the concert in Central Park – we forgot that essentially, we were done as a team.”

Bullshit, and MAKE SURE they know They love bailouts, they jerk off to them. Government money is their favorite thing in the world and it always has been. Do NOT let them say this garbage

so weird to see the new york liberty get favorable whistles down the stretch of an elimination game that their star players aren’t playing good enough to win on their own

There goes the First Amendment.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

Chicago. Notice how they try to get her to make a statement. If she had answered them, they could then claim she made a false statement & arrest her too. She is a child.

wrote about this last year and sure I wasn't in any way the only one but imo people voting for populist politics in the 21st century *is* a sign that they do just have too much faith in institutions, as opposed to not enough - they want to have their little tantrum but assume things will just hold

I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

They're calling it, "the least surprising development in news history": blockclubchicago.org/2025/09/19/v...

Note how the right always *overestimates* the percentage of the population that is transgender (to create transphobic hysteria), while it relentlessly *underestimates* the percentage of the population that is gay (to marginalize gay people).

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

This is hilarious. These people have never run a real business. It is 100% a scam operated by skiled, dedicated grifters. www.wsj.com/articles/sto...

He's unpopular and most people haven't yet begun to personally experience the consequences of his policies.

“She’s mine.” Watch this whole interview with Andrea Velez, a US citizen arrested by ICE while on her way to work. youtu.be/AmfpngmLIzQ?...

imagine what these numbers might be if the media hadn’t spent a week pretending that charlie kirk, who most people had never heard of, was the second coming of MLK

and a retired meteorologist shall lead us

this one is good too

"What’s been revealed in the past week is that the current ruling party sees free will and free speech as indoctrination, but believes compulsory moments of silence for a man most Americans hadn’t heard of until his death to be fair game"

You could probably go anywhere on the planet right now; walk up to a stranger and say ‘I hate that motherf*cker’ and they would know exactly who you mean’.

I was in the hospital with my mom when Kirk was shot while she was getting something checked out. Neither she, nor the woman on the bed next to us, knew who Kirk was. When I explained it, they said, "good." This is complete unreality. He was not popular or even known to normal people.
