Pour one out for every professional political pundit, writer, consultant whatever that has spent the last decade trying to pretend that the Trump phenomenon was about trade or opiates and not a big chunk of white america losing its mind over having a black president bsky.app/profile/kyle...

the number of academics who were in touch with Epstein really puts the (elite) backlash to Title IX's enforcement against sexual violence into perspective.

seems that when the cryptobros were running amok yelling “have fun being poor!” a monkey’s paw curled

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

Stanley Richards, who did multiple stints on Rikers Island as a youth before going on to lead the city’s largest nonprofit assisting people who have been locked up, was announced on Saturday by Mayor Zohran Mamdani as the city’s Correction Department commissioner.

Yale prof David Gelernter defends his letter urging Epstein to hire "v small goodlooking blonde" student by saying that he was "keep[ing] the potential boss's habits in mind." This creep shouldn't be allowed anywhere near students. yaledailynews.com/articles/gel...

very weird “I am Spartacus” thing happening right now with the worst people on earth

Y’all, I’m losing my mind over here. I need everyone to read this article. I can’t go it alone!!! “Epstein argues that teaching children to write may be harmful because writing forces “linear” and “narrow” patterns of thinking, whereas the greatest thinkers never wrote.”

The tide is shifting. They're walking back the bullshit hype.

our government used a Blackhawk helicopter in a major American city, detained children and zip-tied U.S. citizens all to target... squatters and the alleged Tren de Aragua presence? "It was a brutal lie against the American public." www.propublica.org/article/chic...

We can be even more specific here: Black voters. These are all majority-Black cities.

The cycle from Amazon killing bookstores to Bezos axing the books section of the Post is something

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

And I’ve seen a lot of these posts distinguishing between protest and what’s happening in Minneapolis. The subtext feels to me that they're distinguishing the protests and uprisings of 2020 with what's happening now. "We're not protesting, it's something more noble!"

Protesting is a fundamental right of citizenship. There is nothing wrong or unpatriotic about protesting. These people would not be on the streets if ICE wasn’t attacking their neighbors. So then, being in the streets is literally an active protest.

sports coverage is not about box scores anymore. it's about power and politics and corruption and sovereign wealth and real estate and the use of taxpayer money and the most publicized labor disputes in the country and yes, sometimes about ball go in hoop

I've never been a conspiracy theory guy, but you're never gonna convince me that there hasn't been a specific cabal of ultra-rich dullards trying to buy, strangle, and bring to heel all of the most important reality-shaping machines since the uptick in power labor had during COVID

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

hey remember when I got shit on for years for trying to warn people that GamerGate was just Nazis and not just about harassing women and not just about some “consumer revolt”

If you'd told me, a decade ago, that the rising concept of the 'influencer' would one day serve as a transmission belt for the elevation of subliterate clowns seeking to provoke pogroms in exchange for promotional deals with online betting companies, I'd probably have said, "That tracks."

Roughly half a million women in the US exited the workforce in 2025, and 42% of those who voluntarily left cited their caregiving responsibilities as the main reason, according to a recent survey from Catalyst. www.hr-brew.com/stories/2026...

It was always the racism and misogyny But it’s so exciting to see so many tech advocacy spaces run to make sure that they help build better discrimination machines

White supremacists and transphobes will choose to remain in a social circle brimming with pedophiles as long as there are no black and trans people in them. Youtubers chose this. Network anchors chose this. Presidents chose this. Happily. Willingly. Are STILL choosing it.

The economic term for this kind of behavior where you're stealing other people's wealth and not generating new wealth is rent seeking. The thing is that many of these models don't have to be this exploitative. The food apps are a good example. They do provide an actual service /1

Here's just a few of the pieces in our "Day for Gaza" package. We have @mohamhawish.bsky.social on the hollowness of the so-called ceasefire in Gaza: "What do you call a ceasefire agreement under which people keep dying?" www.thenation.com/article/worl...

Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation.com, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza. We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. Please read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...

“You need only know this: Whatever is happening with your data, it is important enough to the most egregiously lawless administration in American history that it be collected and consolidated.” Always read @tressiemcphd.bsky.social (gift link)

[upbeat zohran voice] I'm here at the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, Germany, where 80 years ago some important progressive work started [smash cut] but hasn't ended. So here's what we're doing:

The Pitt got greenlit for a season 3, out next February, and the announcement has very funny comment from HBO chairman Casey Bloys that’s like “yeah, turns out if you just make a TV show like how we used to make TV shows you can have a 15+ episode season every year 🤷‍♂️”

“Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they never stopped to ask if they *should.*” —THE ACTUAL POINT OF THE FUCKING MOVIE THESE PEOPLE ARE DEBASING!!

We didn't say body cams on ICE. Their murders are already on video. We said no more ICE.

I’m sorry but what did libertarians think that the anonymous money laundering racism coin that you could only functionally use for illicit activity was doing other than this, exactly

“My administration will keep opening up public spaces like this because New Yorkers deserve to see their city…” This is such a small thing but also such a big thing?!

Some already rich person just got a massive check for nothing while average citizens will continue to die in the street.

Congrats to whoever won the contract to provide the body cams that ICE agents are going to immediately cover or damage just as police do.

It will be darkly comic as we see the police reforms used to whitewash ICE fail and be met with “they’re following all the rules and procedures the police use” when we point out the violence is ongoing.

This whole heap is gonna go public soon. So he made twitter investors whole with AI venture money and soon he’ll make the AI investors whole with public equity market money, on the back of an enterprise the US government won’t allow to fail.

Now we can get official footage of every murder and kidnapping

It's probably not a good "reform" if your opponents adopt it before you even pass the bill

Now that most of the country wants to abolish ICE, get ready for the goalposts to shift, so that abolish ICE becomes "reform ICE" as we get closer to the election. We have to continue pressure to make sure we really mean abolish, when we say it, otherwise we will be sold out.

ICE now confirming that there is a measles outbreak at the Texas concentration camp where young Liam was held.
