This is happening a lot to female journalists. So here is a modest proposal for the White House press corps: Stand together. No one should ask another question until the President answers the question that was ignored.

Prime Minister Carney is killing it here: "I greenlit this thing!"

The only reason Homan replaced Bovino as the face of the occupation is because his lies are more polished and he doesn’t dress like a member of the Third Reich in public. But the policies and the state instigated violence remain unchanged.

it is the same playbook everywhere. “vote for us! we will make you great again by punishing the people you hate! do not pay attention to the fact that we’re also shoveling your money into the pockets of the uber wealthy and building a giant boot to step on your face too (preferably forever)”

A stark moment in this morning's hearing in Minnesota when an attorney for the state is staying this:

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdami advises New Yorkers to stay home and read ‘Heated Rivalry’ during the winter storm via hearts530

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Journalists aren’t supposed to report “both sides.” They are supposed to report the truth. DHS is not telling the truth. Stop reporting their lies.

Hey MAGA and GOP Republicans - you probably haven’t seen a demonstration of true religious faith before - so here you go:

As with all things Trump, wait until you see a signed agreement with specifics, and wait until you see who signs it. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Here’s the report from KARE. The boy is five-year-old Liam Ramos.

At her estimate of $15.64 per person per day, a family of three would need $1407.60 to feed the family, yet the maximum monthly SNAP benefit for that family is only $785 and the average benefit is $588. She's unwittingly making the case to raise SNAP benefits.

Average Sunday show interview: OFFICIAL: we are going to dip enemies of the state into acid vats HOST: how will you pay for it? OFFICIAL: tariffs HOST: critics say tariffs don't generate acid vat money OFFICIAL: tariffs have generated more money than has ever existed HOST: thank u for ur time

Jacob Frey told ICE agents to get the fuck out of Minneapolis, a hugely popular viral moment, and the media has been browbeating him over it ever since. Trump flipped a guy off and told him fuck you and it’s barely acknowledged.

They’re investigating the victim, not the killer

Why are people assuming US troops and not Eric Prince employees will enforce US order in Venezuela?

If every other tech company had focused on being responsible with developing quality AI tools/LLMs instead of rushing garbage out so as not to "fall behind," there would be so much consumer backlash to all the "AI tools" we're being inundated with from all sides. This tech wasn't and isn't ready.

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

He has always been the author of his own legend, and too much of the media for decades have helped him launder those fictions.

What a shameful question. First, it is not what Congress "asked for." It is what a federal statute REQUIRES. Second, WTF does "spirit but not intent" even mean? CBS bent a knee and paid Trump, it has a new owner who wants to please Trump, and sadly this is the result.

— They consider Epstein’s associates victims — They already failed to protect the real victims in the initial release

"No mainstream reporter has the stomach to say, 'By the way, this administration lies all the time and we should assume this is a lie too' after every unsupported statement." They should, because it's true.

What oil, what land, what assets did Venezuela steal from the US? And when? A social media post from an alternative reality.

the thing they don’t seem to get is that outside the right-wing ecosystem, no one even knows who they are. after charlie kirk’s death my normie friends were all “christ who IS this guy,” so yeah, i’m not surprised there isn’t much audience for the wife of that guy they’d never heard of.

There isn't a single problem "solved" by edtech that couldn't be fixed with smaller classes led by well-paid teachers given real academic freedom

AP on Trump now, and Biden in June 2022. For Trump, declining to 36 percent approval is “good news.” For Biden, holding steady at 41% is “a source of concern.”

Seems a little wild that DHS would call me out by name and say that this scene is offensive to Christians. I like seperation in my church and state. Moreover, what's offensive to Christians is the dehumanization that DHS and ICE are practicing. That is evil and an offense to God - not my nativity.

GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered? GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now THOMPSON: What does that mean?

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported? NOEM: We haven't deported veterans MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

Republicans' proposal was.... the ACA. That's why it took the form it did, but since Obama could do no right, they had to define themselves in opposition to it.

@ashtonpittman.bsky.social Bluesky is no longer blocked in Mississippi? Have to use age verification? What did you know?

@mississippifreepress.org Bluesky is no longer blocked in Mississippi? Have to use age verification? What did you know?

This is so spot on and a huge reason people are so angry at legacy media right now

There’s a whole lot of folks nervous about needing Maga voters. We don’t. They are about 30% of the Republican Party. We just need the previously apathetic voters to vote. Economics will help.

Autocorrect has become our worst enema.

Majorie Taylor Greene: "The real test will be, will the Department of Justice release the files?"

I still can't get over that not a single colleague stood up for her. Shame on all of them.

…and then the rest of the White House press corps pushed back against the president’s gratuitous insult aimed at one of their colleagues? Oh wait! There’s no sign that anything like that happened! Because access beats out solidarity, every day of the week. people.com/donald-trump...

Dr. Oz is clearly a moron who, incredibly, doesn't understand anything about how the insurance system works. But also: Conservatives genuinely believe that people want to spend endless hours "choosing the insurance that's best for them." They don't. They want good, secure health care. It's simple.

If that's Giuffre's name under the redaction bar, then prove it. Remove the redaction. You've already told us it's Giuffre, so you wouldn't be doing anything illegal. So reveal it. Or can't you? Because it's not her?

Members of Congress receive up to $79 per day for meals and incidentals when they are on official business in the D.C. area. SNAP recipients receive $6.31 per day

He might as well send troops to Bezos’ house and Amazon HQ to fix the problem of dying malls. www.thedailybeast.com/president-do...

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

On what Trump's saying about Walmart's Thanksgiving dinner deal this year: A) Yes, 2025's IS smaller. B) If you take the 2025 package, add back the food it's missing from 2024, and take out the items 2024 didn't have, Walmart's 🦃 dinner package in 2025 costs 2.6% MORE than it did in 2024. 🤔 1/

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

The "Deciding To Win" centrists dismiss base mobilization, but the actual 2024 data shows: the more blue a place was in 2020, the lower its turnout was in 2024. Swing voters weren't nearly as important as Dem-leaning irregular voters not voting at all. The base wasn't mobilized, so we lost.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Interesting paper! When you ask people about the most important issue "facing the country," they often say immigration. But when you ask them about issues facing them personally, it doesn't crack the top 10. This indicates that voters are reacting to media narratives, not their own experience.
