I was going to say that this was just unbelievable. But it’s not, it’s completely believable.

Entitled to his views? He has a fixed delusion about vaccines that is completely resistant to data and other forms of proof.

The horror that was Nazi Germany did not happen overnight. Tom‘s distinction is correct. We do not have a government that is fully captured by the fascists. But it also does not mean that we are not in serious danger.

Oh, well then. I’m convinced now

That’s gonna leave a mark

Kimmel’s fine, but I would go with Colbert if we’re given a choice

Great thread on how our current cable news media developed

Both sides you say? How courageous of you

This meme is a great way to teach the difference between the median and the mean.

She was just joking, ffs

absolutely not

Somebody should check on the take machine, I think it’s on fire

Welp. Now we know what OUR Reichstag fire looks like. Bracing for impact.

I really do not understand this. He lists many examples of right wing violence, and then moves on to deposit that the left has the same type of problem. Without any citations or evidence. Where are you going with this David French? www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/o...

Sounds to me like JD is too emotional to be president

With all the damage the the GOP and so-called conservatives are doing to our democracy, our freedoms and our nation’s health and healthcare system, who in their right mind looks around and says, let me tell you why I’m not a member of the only group that’s putting up a fight. Hard pass.

Lies, fellas. The word you’re looking for is lies.

As a hospitalist, I helped lead my organization’s response to covid in 2020, and that was very, very difficult - with support, vaccines and masks. Doing that again, with a potentially more lethal H5N1 flu pandemic would be a disaster at an unbelievable scale. This should scare everyone

“Who am I to tell you what your child should put in [their] body?” You’re a doctor, not to mention a public health official. It’s literally your job, bro.

Area man would have you believe that folks are overreacting to what the Supreme Court might do. Because the considered prognostications of media types have been so accurate and enlightening.

“Hey, hey, RFK, how many kids did you kill today?”

THIS is your fundraising pitch? Come. On.

@durbin.senate.gov @judiciarydems.senate.gov Trump is ignoring a 9-0 SCOTUS decision. WHERE ARE YOU? www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/u...

The “fuck your feelings crowd” is really having…a moment

Medicaid and Medicare were created as part of LBJ’s war on poverty. They are essential for many hospitals that serve poor populations to function. When hospitals like the one in Speaker Johnson’s district fail, it is the disadvantaged who bear the brunt of the suffering. This is peak cruelty

Spoiler alert: It’ll be the vaccines. And, you freaking moron, people have been studying autism for YEARS. You’re going to figure out the cause in 5 months, AYFKM?

The word ‘claim’ is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Did they actually receive those benefits or did they try and were denied? If in fact any of that is remotely true, which it most likely is not.

🤔

This would be a great topic for a column! There’s even a name for it, ‘theorywashing’ It’s a long past time to say the emperor has no clothes, there is no plan.

The cover of The Economist gets the story of the American economy exactly right

And kids who don’t die from the measles can die in school shootings

This is so perfectly true. It’s time that we held our elected representatives accountable. Please call them today and ask them to fight back!

If you don’t like AOC because she’s too radical, I would suggest that this belief comes from RW media - even if you don’t listen to Fox News or OANN or the like.

The more I see of Chuck Schumer, the less I like him.

Please consider signing this. I usually don’t sign, random petitions, but send it Democratic leadership has got to go. www.change.org/p/boycott-co...

Say it with me: Not another dime for the DNC or the DSCC until there’s new leadership. And primary Schumer!

I think you are wrong, but there’s nothing in his behavior that I can point to that would support my point. More of a useful idiot IMO

An important read for our times. The academy is not covering itself in glory so far

“Move fast and break things” Whoopsie

Can’t wait for the pundits to give wall-to-wall coverage of this tragedy, like they did over the murder Brian Thompson 2 months ago. There was never any glorification of murder; there was an understanding that this was the real crime and drug companies + PBMs were the criminals wapo.st/3CL55Zp

Joe Biden: I want to help our scientists find a cure for cancer Donald Trump: I’m going to save $4 billion dollars for tax cuts for rich people Good job America wapo.st/3Q9DrIH

Anybody seen Jill Stein lately? Would love to get her take

The NYT has lost its way, part 1,372 Theres good evidence in the surgeon generals report about alcohol, but the ladies in my group chat think otherwise. The impulse should be to write about what the evidence shows, & evidence based recommendations, rather than this www.nytimes.com/2025/01/13/o...
