I’m old enough to remember at least one time when this event offered up a much needed public skewering of the president and his lapdog press I guess it’s too much to hope that we would ever see its like again

We don't have White House Correspondents...we have stenographers to fascism, eager to quote/repeat, propagate, and amplify the disinformation, lies, projections, and gaslighting that defines every press conference held by this regime of bullies for billionaires.

The Whore House Correspondents' Dinner.

The cast for canceling the White House Correspondents Dinner. From Mark Jacob, formerly an editor at the Chicago Tribune.

Are the @nytimes.com and @huffpost.com the only major media outlets refusing to prostrate themselves to Trump, and boycotting this White House Correspondents dinner abomination? There is no excuse for anyone to attend.

This is so fucking despicable. SHAME on the #WHCA.

Has anyone bothered to look into the ghastly corruption history of Paula White-Cain? You know, the White House spiritual advisor to Trump!

1/The NYT is releasing internal SCOTUS documents re: 2016 creation of the modern “Shadow Docket” noting Justice Roberts & “other conservative justices have repeatedly empowered [Trump] through their shadow docket rulings. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

Chief Justice John Roberts should be impeached and removed from the Supreme Court.

It’s so funny that they pubbed this the day before “john roberts invented the trump era shadow docket to make sure fossil fuel companies could keep killing you and make money doing it” bsky.app/profile/cris...

Moments before being sucked into the jet engine.

This is why diplomatic deals are traditionally written down. But the Trump administration is too lazy, incompetent, and amateurish for that. Hence, the constant confusion over terms.

Oh, dear. This is just terrible. ; )

Ex NYC Mayor @BilldeBlasio on @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani’s tax on rich people’s 2nd $5M+ NYC homes: “Absolutely it will help the working class. It’s a breath of fresh air.”

He's an evil piece of shit, and after 10 years we're closing in on everyone seeing it He's *dismissing* hundreds of raped kids—and I bet a lot of people who hear him do so will imagine that he's doing something so otherwise unthinkable because some of those kids were his victims

Scott MacFarlane, after leaving CBS, has one of the hottest new indie news Substacks around. He joins us tonight to give us a peek at his new world—and how he manages to cover all the news, all the time. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Trump wanted the FEC reporting to him to facilitate the media monopolies & fuel his propaganda train. NOT today Satan!

🚨EXCLUSIVE: On multiple occasions, Kash Patel’s security detail had difficulty waking him because he was seemingly intoxicated, according to info supplied to DOJ and White House officials. A request for “breaching equipment” was made because Patel had been unreachable behind locked doors.

As if pulling innocent people off the street wasn’t cruel enough, ICE has been mining personal data to target immigrants and American citizens. How? With technology handed to them by Palantir. This is a complete breach of Minnesotans’ privacy, and I won’t stand for it.

The rationed slop being served to troops by the U.S. navy … compared to what the French and Swedish navies serve their troops.

Pope Leo out there spitting fire 🔥 🔥🔥

Trump broke the Commandents, so Vance had to commit the Deadly Sins. Trump compared himself to Jesus, so Vance had to claim that he was better at theology than the pope. This is one sad weird heretical Oedipal thing.

TRUMP, throwing insults at Pope Leo: “weak on crime” “terrible for foreign policy” “catering to the Radical Left” “owes his position to me” “sit down and mind your own business” POPE LEO, unbothered: “We are called to love.”

Gov. Abigail Spanberger of Virginia has signed into law a bill to end tax exemptions for a slate of Confederacy-related organizations in the state.

Has anyone asked George Clooney if he thinks Joe Biden might have done a better job than Trump? We should ask him.

I’ve given this a great deal of thought, trying to come up with the perfect joke for this moment, and this is what I have so far - POPE LEO: our religion teaches that this war is bad VANCE: wow, who died and made YOU head of the Catholic Church?? POPE LEO: well, you should know, you were there

This is such a perfect tax for a place like NYC where so much money from around the globe treats its real estate as a place to park money (and often leaves it vacant). You love to see it!

This whole relationship seems inexplicable. Why would she marry another closeted gay man?

In an open letter to American psychologists, Iranian psychologists called for an assessment of the mental health of the US political leaders in the interest of world peace.

Always follow the money.

Multiple ships have passed through the Strait of Hormuz today, despite Trump's “total” naval blockade. Once again, it looks like Trump’s strategy is doomed to be another TOTAL FAILURE.

Jamie Raskin just cornered the White House. He’s officially demanding Trump’s cognitive exam and a full list of his medications with their side effects. Checkmate in one letter. Read it here: 👇

Credit where credit is due. Congress is “doing something.”

BREAKING: We’re saying NO to the Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger. Thanks to your support Contrarians, our @normeisen.bsky.social is leading a major coalition of over 1,000 Hollywood professionals in opposing the proposed merger. Follow along here for more on this tomorrow.

T'rump is the inevitable, monstrous end product of unregulated capitalism.

There is no hell hot enough. www.impactcounter.com/dashboard?vi...

We need to understand one thing, ICE is a product of a sick Country with sick behavior, it's barbarism not worthy of a civilized Country. Our Country is run by so called Christians, but I've never seen such Evil and I've seen a lot in my service to America Republicans are a disgrace to this Country

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

Members of Congress are gaining access to ICE facilities and surprise, surprise, the conditions are inhumane.

Daily reminder:Release the Epstein Files👇🏻

Outlaw billionaires.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.
