The United states’s legacy in the world is not uncomplicated but nothing highlights the good we have done in the world than that Musk and Trump could condemn millions to death by just stopping doing it.

One of the fascinating aspects of Trump 2.0 has been the way the media elites who engineered his 2024 victory by, basically, **lying** about his plans and fitness for office, seemed to expect that the **reality** of Trump 2.0 would be broadly popular.

Will say it till my head falls off: There is no safe level of exposure to content on X. No one is immune from its effects. One day you're a paragon of progressive thought leadership, the next you're telling readers, "Tucker Carlson is one of the most talented figures in all political media."

For those who may not know, yes I am the person who chalked on the sidewalk in front of Susan Collins’ house. Not only did she call the police to erase my work (violating my 1st am right), but she’s since moved to a house without a sidewalk. She’s already made it clear that she’s intimidated by me.

The number of people who reply to this with “I’ve only seen the first one, not the second one. The second one’s fake” makes me want to scream.

This person believes that they experience material harm by NOT spreading the blood libel conspiracy theory as far and wide as possible. This is the kind of mask-off antisemitism that we are now dealing with in huge numbers on the left. If you are following them, please consider not doing that.

While we’re in The Horrors, I sort of expect every piece of news to either be bad or a dodged bullet. But this seems good? Like, actual forward progress in one small area.

Blaming Jews writ large for the actions of the Israeli Government is really giving away the antisemitism game.

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

Damn, this is some good writing.

Hillary Clinton just posted her opening statement to the Comer Committee which she is testifying before today. It's part of the Save Donald from Epstein Investigation. The committee has essentially taken over the town of Chappaqua for the purpose. @hillaryclinton.bsky.social

school being canceled because the president sent armed thugs to harass and imprison the populace for voting against him should be the biggest domestic scandal in american history

it has never been more clear that Trump's "I could shoot someone on fifth avenue and lose no votes" statement is true, at least when it comes to congressional support apparently it also applies to "invade greenland" and I don't really know where we go from there

this is what i want at every level of government on day 0 of the next presidency and the first candidate to say it is my presumptive nominee

People love to say “the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020 moved the cultural needle back to Trump” while seemingly oblivious to the fact that the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020 took place while Trump was in power and immediately proceeded an election that he lost.

This game was so fun. I barely had time to feed my little fish, Skip Haisley, but I tried my best!

I think Democrats in Congress should begin to make the argument that any attack against Greenland, and Denmark as a NATO ally, absent congressional authorization is an illegal order that must be disobeyed.

Absolutely fucking tremendous from the FT.

One guy tried, unsuccessfully, to blow up a plane with a bomb in his sneakers, and everybody had to take off their shoes at the airport for the next 20 years. Chatbots have a collective body count equal to Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, and they're trying to put them in schools.

The president unilaterally decided to attack a sovereign nation and kidnap its leader, and now he says he's just going to run that county himself for a while too. Call your representatives now and demand they impeach him.

I imagine this is what summer midnights at the North Pole feel like.

A favorite thing about living in a big city is that when it snows in the middle of the night, all of the city lights bounce off the sky and it’s like daytime.

I feel like this is missing: David Hume: If you appear of Santa’s naughty list, it’s because you chose to be naughty. Whether it can be predetermined or not, it was your choice. The coal in your stocking is ultimately your fault.

John Locke: If you have been very Nice and your parents do not buy you a Nintendo Switch, you have license to replace them with parents who will.

If men need a "place," why is that place always "in control of women?"

The White House’s insistence on using Sabrina Carpenter’s work and image to promote their crimes against humanity is also them appealing to their base, which already uses technology to try and humiliate and puppeteer the likenesses of women who have autonomy, success, and visibility in public

I can confirm that this is exactly what an OSR is.

In “Politics and the English Language” George Orwell writes a scathing critique of the way that writers use vapid phrases to hit large word counts while saying nothing at all. Today we’ve learned that Orwell was a time traveler because he was definitely talking about Olivia Nuzzi’s American Canto.

AIPAC sucks, supports genocide, and is a hub for Christian Zionists as much as anyone. *And* at the same time: When you vaguepost like this about issues unrelated to Israel suggesting an org associated with Judaism is to blame, you are at least FLIRTING with antisemitic conspiracy theory.

Omg I’m dying 😂😂😂…so…So Emily Austin, a right wing 'influencer' who works for Bibi and the GOP, launched 'Hot Girls for Cuomo'. Guess who didn't bother to register the URL when she did that? What do you think Hot Girls for Cuomo dot com leads to now?... 😄 Enjoy. [ HotGirlsforCuomo.com ]

He's about to pass Lindsay '69, and he might pass Lindsay '65. But Fiorello Laguardia got 1.3 million votes in NINETEEN FUCKING THIRTY-SEVEN. Fucking batshit. I love this city.

Ok, but I know someone who has this, and the flowers are frogs. They are little pink frogs. LEGO used the frog mold that they already had and made pink ones and those are the flowers. The flowers are frogs.

I have never posted about #over/under before because I feel like anything that I could say would be a spoiler. But, I announced a fund today for new public works, and everyone wants to eliminate taxes and build a train. Someone who is good at the economy please help me, my space station is dying.

All these people avoiding m-dashes because “AI uses them” simply means that there’s more for me!

Devastating news for those like me who were sure Taylor could fix them.

Obamacare was passed by people who took for granted Hillary Clinton’s presidency would have concluded months ago

Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?

"The idea that if a political movement garners mass support, it can’t possibly be extremism, incompatible with democratic self-government, or beyond the pale in a broader cultural and societal sense is utterly implausible and historically illiterate." democracyamericana.com/posts/c5d024...

Someone needs to make Adolescence, but for grown-ups who lose their marbles on the internet. And also make it funny. Like Four Lions

Schumer’s seat is Lander’s for the taking, if Lander wants it.

It is fucked up what they did to the headphone jack

is sinclair really something that liberals can't just buy? 200 TV stations across the nation does not sound like an insurmountable thing to start chipping away at? this feels like a problem a few megarich liberals can stop pretty quickly.

Today is La fête du travail the 3rd of Sansculottides in the year 233. Sansculottides is the month of complementary days. Today we celebrate labor.#JacobinDay More information on labor

A lot of the discourse is really how do Dems win in November 2028. That's an issue where the answers will be clearer in June 2028. Also participating in policy/activism/organizing/defending one another has never before and should not now depend on you analyzing how every action affects elections.

Italy literally has a fascist government right now, and Trump’s actions are still too far for them.

as usual when the subway is safe and the roads are dangerous, the message the media leads with is still "look at what a mess the freakin' subway is!" it's kinda fascinating
