Incredible things happening on X

Hi @rparloff.bsky.social @annabower.bsky.social @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org Is anyone allowed to submit Qs for Trials of the Trump Admin or do you need to be present for the Friday livestream?

Thank god he was arrested on state charges.

Well, one industry is profitable so…

It’s genuinely amusing to watch JD Vance jersey around the country and world and give big speeches as if anyone cares what he has to say. Like, who in Israel is like “Oh yeah JD Vance. BIG fan.”

By repatriating the survivors of this attack, Trump is essentially conceding what most observers now believe: this was not a drug smuggling vessel in the first place, and therefor the administration lacks the evidence to charge and try the survivors.

Find her hair and makeup budget. It is likely in the thousands per week and there’s a 0.0% chance she is paying the bills herself.

Gee I wonder if there's anything else going on today that would make them want to close THE major freeway in California.

Next Dem president needs to limit his own pardon power and do it by threatening to pardon anyone who shoots a senator so they’ll vote for it. He’ll make it a constitutional amendment by threatening state officials.

The Trump administration saw Russia try to do this in Ukraine and step all over its dick and get caught EVERY time and said…

Make Wisconsin Sad Again

Extra question: did hegseth and miller demand that the admiral overseeing this mass murder campaign resign for picking up survivors. Seems like kind of a big deal

I personally think that a decade is more than enough time for someone who was a piece of shit to become not a piece of shit.

Certainly not the MAIN takeaway here, but once again confirming that field sobriety tests are insane and I could not complete most of them stone sober, especially in the wind on the fucking Overseas Highway

I’m just going to be forced to become a Democratic ad consultant because their ads should be this, not whatever the fuck they’ve been doing with Prop 50

This, everywhere, for all of these people. Stephen Miller will likely never see the inside of a jail cell but he should at least never be allowed to visit Paris or Venice or, I suppose, Sydney

JD Vance and Elon Musk are gonna start a bidding war to hired these people

Wait. I thought you couldn’t do this because it was a terrible afford to free speech

Moby Dick is the ur-example of this because it is literally half and half. Great story of destructive obsession and a comprehensive history of whaling, interspersed with inexplicable, chapter-length asides on like, the symbolism of the color white in literature.

So in this case, who is opposing the fascist tyranny? Trump or the Republican governor of SC or...?

Theory: I feel like Tilda Swinton would not be the style icon she is if the ONLY thing that changed about her were her name. Like if her name was Gladys Suggs...

It's harvest season. Let's see how this goes for them...

Everyone knows Bari Weiss was hired at the Times, but does literally anyone know where she was before that?

I keep going back to Twitter hoping against hope that it’s gotten a little better and I just wind up blocking another 100 accounts and getting sad. That really did used to be a good website

People are giving George Stephanopolous entirely too much credit for the Vance interview. If he lies, don’t let him talk for another 40 seconds and then let it slide; correct the lie

How are these people so fucking stupid? Is there somewhere I can put my money so it can have 0 exposure to the whims of the dumbest people to ever live?

Wow. Embarrassing nonsense

I would bet my life savings that the person who complained about this was Donald Trump. Both because it’s incredibly petty and because Abbott actually did something about it

If only the Bezos Post could write about the Trump administration with this level of moral clarity

Next Dem president should not abolish ICE, which would create an army of angry, unemployed steroid abusers. He should simply commission Jean Paul Gaultier to design new ICE uniforms. The only requirements is that they be bubblegum pink and involve mesh

this is by far the worst reading of Alan Moore’s Watchmen I’ve ever seen and if you spend an appreciable amount of time online you will know what a crowning achievement that is

Wow. If I get brutalized by ICE I would hope my employer comes a bit harder

lol holy shit ":obj - presidential communication"

hey @apstylebook.com, I know we use numerals for percentages, but what about percentage POINTS? An increase of 3 percentage points, or three percentage points?

Right now today, political reporting that takes free and fair 2026 elections as a given is the equivalent of sports reporting that assumes the Jets will win the Super Bowl.

Carl really poked the (Russian) bear with this one.

Honest Q: where did they find an extra 20B?

Next president should just set up an office in every city where people can apply for a govt job and receive their “signing bonus,” and then immediately get laid off.

Imagine still believing John Roberts cares about the rule of law or is opposed to abuse of power in 2025. "I hope Saruman is happy about the orcs Sauron is unleashing!"

It would be a lot easier for these guys if they took their newfound cultural time to learn literally one thing about the country they just performed in

They’re literally not going to “have to” do anything. This was a policy choice to hurt your own constituents and give that hospital money to millionaires so they could buy their kid a 3br condo in Soho

Imagine a political party that tries to tell you this guy is a monster and Stephen Miller is a benevolent hero

How do you write this whole editorial without once mentioning January 6…

the story of 2024-2025 in a nutshell: "shit sucks, let's give this trump guy another chance" "wait a minute, we hate donald trump!"

Oh no not ethics rules! Surely this will bring them all down

IANAL but a good 5% of my waking hours lately have been occupied by reading court documents

We are in a dangerous place in America right now. Today’s ruling is a wake-up call for the president: it halts what appears to be the president’s attempts to normalize the US military in our cities. #nationalguard #portland #portlandoregon #orpol

this is a good opinion

BREAKING: Oregon judge rules Stephen Miller has diaper full of peepee and poopoo. Trump administration is BARRED from letting Stephen Miller back on TV until he gets a bath and a clean diaper
