The Israel Day Parade — which features some of the Israeli politicians who have not only cheered on the genocide of Palestinians, but are part of the government committing that genocide — is not a celebration of Jewish identity or pride. @mayor.nyc.gov knows this. We're grateful he is not attending.

It is not really possible to sufficiently underline how morally debased it is to participate in an American “Israel Day” event. Truly scandalous.

Yet got more NYT op-eds the more racist and conservative he got Actual Jay Caspian Kang quote: "Why would we [Asian Americans] give up our spots at selective schools to benefit the same [Black] people who attack us in the streets?" Also "'People of Color' Do Not Belong to the Democratic Party"

Correct, and it started about five minutes after the election.

Fired 60 Minutes-er Cecilia Vega put out this statement: "In recent months, my producing teams and I have experienced efforts to insert political bias into our stories. Reporting teams have held back on submitting story pitches about important news topics out of fear of the internal repercussions."

In his keynote speech to Harvard graduates this week, @thedailyshow.com host Ronny Chieng said "Fuck AI!" Turns out you can talk about AI in a grad speech and not get booed. Watch our episode on these AI grad speeches: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VE0E...

“International commitments” He’s a mayor

NEW: We obtained a not-yet-public FARA filing revealing how Brad Parscale has directed $13 million from Israel to Republican digital strategy firms run by some of his long time allies/ with @nickclevelandstout.bsky.social theintercept.com/2026/05/28/i...

This marked the second night of Israel bombing Gaza during the Eid festival, a clear show of contempt for Palestinians, Islam and humanity Via @skwawkbox.org

A really fascinating op-ed that claims Israel can turn its international image and growing isolation around with a new government, but it doesn't mention by name any of the parties or candidates who are running because none of them have any intention of doing any of the things the author recommends.

The White House intervened to get a $620 million deal for a company tied to Don Jr. The request was made by top aide Peter Navarro. Of the dozens of companies the Pentagon was considering funding at the time, the Don Jr.-linked company was the only deal initiated by a top aide to Trump.

Please do it.

commodities traders turn bearish on reports that mommy has left our field of view and therefore no longer exists

Proposed NDA language goes well beyond draft regs. NDA unconstitutionally tries to bind federal employees from disclosing any info post-employment. This goes against existing & well-settled case law. No one should sign. And we will sue to protect 1st Amendment rights.

It's so striking how much conservative ideology rests entirely on lies. You can look up which books are getting assigned in colleges! The idea that higher education has a "disdain for Western civilization" is laughable.

it is very bad to have a society in which cheats and grifters *openly* prosper.

NEW: ICE detention contractor GEO Group made a $250K "dark money" donation to a group tied to Rep. Jim Jordan, who chairs a committee that oversees ICE, right after the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" passed last year tripling ICE's budget More at @pogo.org: www.pogo.org/investigates...

Gov. Jared Polis, fresh off being censured by the Colorado Democratic Party for letting Tina Peters out of prison early, showed up today to a private, internal party call like this #copolitics

Some context: there's a 6-year statute of limitations on false claims. The Trump administration can dismiss any individual case (known as a qui tam case) but they won't be able to do that throughout. Dem candidates can say right now that they would pursue this or not stand in the way of qui tams.

People are dunking on Ilan here, but I think he was actually using "my abusers" in a way people are misunderstanding. My forthcoming essay shows that the phrase had a specific, and largely forgotten, meaning in 17th century England . . .

I’m not as intuitive as Gen Z apparently is but I trust my gut tot tell me when something is ai. I think I have more type 2 errors than type 1? But let me tell you what I can call every single time, with a 100% success rate: AI of a Black person. Some things don’t change!

In addition, literal stacks of M4000 chemical bombs, used by the Assad regime to drop sarin on civilians in 3 recorded incidents, were found and photographed. Yet more evidence everything we published at Bellingcat based on our open source investigations of chemical attacks was accurate.

The Plot to Enslave America

It's absolutely insane how the Nasdaq changed rules around its exchange to include SpaceX just 15 days of trading, allow less than 5% of free float, and require a weighting of multiple its float in the index. This is the largest wealth transfer in history from everyone's retirement to Elon.

If you read these two pieces side by side it's impossible to come to any conclusion other than that the Biden administration were complete chumps to release visitor logs. Press punished Biden for his transparency with erroneous speculation and reward Trump for his secrecy by repeating his lies

Here is how justice works in Trump’s Washington. The Biden Justice Department indicted Gautam Adani, one of the world’s wealthiest men, for a $265 million scheme to bribe Indian government officials and defraud American investors. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/14/n...

Atrocities in Sudan backed by Colombian mercenaries trained at UAE bases, says report www.middleeasteye.net/news/atrocit...

The height of judicial arrogance here. SCOTUS breaks Congress’ clear intent for the MSPB by allowing Trump to remove its members and deny it a quorum. Then Barrett and Thomas scold a lower court for trying to find a way to get litigants relief from a mess SCOTUS made.

1) None of these states, especially Saudi, will sign onto the Abraham Accords until/unless there’s actual progress for the Palestinians. Not because the leaders actually care, but because enough of their subjects do. You want to see the Ikhwan go after MBS, have him sign the Abraham Accords. 1/

Probably 80% of posters madness is downstream of thinking that posting on a niche microblogging platform is, in some way, important, rather than being a way to waste time on your phone

"As a general principle, you don’t tax the wealthy to build. You tax the wealthy to manage their power. (. . .)For this reason, every dollar over $100 million should fall into a confiscatory tax bracket of 100%. There’s no reason to allow anyone to accrue more wealth than that."

Ya'll. I am shook. In a good way. Pope Leo XIV makes historic apology for Holy See's own role in legitimizing Slavery

Khanna: "This is a Dred Scott court. They have engaged in the fastest rollback of Black political rights since Rutherford Hayes ended Reconstruction in 1877. One-third of African American seats are threatened. We are not speaking up strongly enough against a court that's rolling back civil rights"

No it the fuck was not.

He did not “accuse” them of it. He’s a judge. He “found” that they had, in fact, done so. JFC NPR, do better.

If you acknowledge that the richest man in the world is a Nazi is has all sorts of unsettling implications about the moral valence of success and the arc of society, so it's easier to just ignore it entirely.

tulsi gabbard will go down with the legacy of being “anti-war”, joining a far right war administration who started a huge war we’re losing with iran, her saying absolutely nothing about it, and then quitting is genuinely so predictable its hardly even that pathetic

NEW: Tina Peters speaks out in defense of Colorado Gov Jared Polis (D), says the Democratic censure of Polis for granting her clemency is further evidence of an election rigging coverup.
