EXCLUSIVE: Thousands of leaked messages show leaders of Young Republican groups joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape in a private Telegram chat. Inside rising GOP leaders’ racist chats — obtained by POLITICO and spanning more than 7 months👇

CW: SA - i hate to be on my usual fucking bullshit but it really needs to be said that these are rape threats. they also stripped her and filmed her.

I dunno if Anna Applebaum is the person I would look to for peace information.

It’s wild I can’t even count how many shutdowns I’ve lived to see and I’m not even 40 yet.

I SNEEZED REALLY VIOLENTLY AND THIS IS THE LOOK SHE GAVE ME IM CRYING

A victim of the shooting at the ICE facility is UNCONSCIOUS, in critical care, may not survive, his wife is about to give birth, and ICE IS KEEPING HIM SHACKLED TO HIS HOSPITAL BED: I just unlocked a new level of rage. www.npr.org/2025/09/27/n...

Hey, not trying to distract from the EpsteinElonTrump files of it all, but we gotta talk about the electricity bills - specifically in NY - bc they are absolutely making us all collectively foot the bill for the electricity and resources that go into the Data Centers here.

Poor Ezra Klein. He is clearly not prepared for this moment. I’m so mad at him but listening to this podcast w/ Coates, I realize I feel sorry for Klein, too. Coates—and other Black folks— see Klein’s lack of moral imagination, but Klein can’t see what’s wrong.

I am sure New Yorkers are going to respond really well to blackmail. The city’s people are notorious for loving to be told what to do.

Shut it down. Shut it all fucking down. Trump has the losing hand here & he knows it, so he's trying to blame his shitty shutdown on the dolls, hoping spineless dems will sacrifice them on the altar of civility. Fuck anyone who crosses to help him. Fuck them and primary them and hassle them to Hell

I really miss the 1990s.

i'll take "duh, it was going to lead to soulless, exhausting, and time-consuming proofing for everyone" for 1000 please

got raptured earlier but asked to be allowed to return when i was informed the first ten seasons of American Dad are not available in heaven

Why spend $650 on a system with no games when you could buy 650 hot dogs instead

Kimmel’s back—proof that public pressure can make a difference. But folks in our region won’t be able to watch tonight because KOMO’s owner, Sinclair, refuses to air the show on its ABC stations. It’s corporate cowardice to censor programming just because the president doesn’t like it.

also, all angels are autists

I missed the autism announcement are we getting autism 2? Is it on switch??

Hey, so I’d rather have a bunch of autistic kids running around and living their lives than dead kids from school shootings, not being vaccinated, abuse or any of the other easily fixable threats facing children today. Go ahead and jot that down if you need to.

It’ll never wash off

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

My favorite Robert Redford acting trick is that he would clip off the end of a line the audience already knew the end of, pause as if thinking, then start the next line as if he was interrupting himself. It's why his acting feels so naturalistic. He feels improvised while not shitting on the script.

Robert Redford playing a gentle incarnation of death, coming for a frightened old woman in The Twilight Zone episode "Nothing in the Dark" (1962). An extraordinary performance then, terribly bittersweet today

@stutterbox.bsky.social Hey um…did YT remove your account? I was in the middle of watching the latest vid and got a message that the video wouldn’t play bc the account doesn’t exist anymore??? If so, the homophobia is wild

Disinformation: a play in 3 acts

A lot of folks need to learn that if you're talking to people who won't take accountability when presented with their own mistakes, attempting to reason with them about things they may have gotten wrong is a futile endeavor from the start.

Hey, at least he died doing what he loved: taking a big fat L in 4K

Anyway, there’s so many more things that matter more than that guy not being alive rn. Like a long list of things. A list that is being withheld by our govt that likely has some important names on it 👀.

So anyway, has anybody checked out the Epstein book? Scandalous

If you are in any way conflicted about how to feel, simply read or listen to anything he said

guess scotty decided to beam up captain kirk 🤣🤣🤣

yesterday "here is proof that the president is a sex criminal" felt pretty bad. today "almost all of the news media is assisting in covering up the fact that the president is a sex criminal" feels much worse

instead of "prove me wrong" on the banners he should have put "don't shoot me in the neck." ppl dont have attention spans like they used to you gotta make sure the right message is getting out there

Btw, I’m loving how many gender neutral bathrooms have been unlocked this year, thanks to so many shitty ppl biting the dust. That said, these are rookie numbers and there’s room for improvement.

It’s gonna be so weird watching establishment dems be performatively sadder about this than they were about the colleague and her husband and dog who got shot and killed

“You’re laughing. Charlie Kirk was 🔫🔫 at an event in Utah and you’re laugh-“ brother not only am I cackling hysterically, Im genuinely concerned that you’re not.

When you've got to own the libs at 6 but then Kill the Batman at 8.

I actually can and will judge people who are using environmentally devastating technology built on mass theft to create a fictional partner who does nothing but tell how great they are.

when the sales associate tells me the price

Okay, I will say this: the famine in Gaza is a deliberate policy decision by Israel to mass murder two million people and they are doing this on the dime of US taxpayers. The bloodstains from this will never wash off.

DO NOT PLATFORM NAZIS. You do not write feature length psychological portraits about them You do not publish their op-eds as "colorful" commentary You do not debate them, especially on camera. DO NOT PLATFORM NAZIS.

Me and my sisters each had a disney movie that we were absolutely fucking obsessed with and watched over and goddamn over again as small children, and I am so proud that mine was Robin Hood!
