My weekly college 🏀 top 10 Power Rankings are here! No surprise at the top, but 6-10 is debatable. youtu.be/c5n7IsCjK4A?...

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

New in PN: The dehumanization machine speeds up "Months after the nation and world were appalled by George Floyd’s murder, it became an event with two different truths. With the killing of Good, the right has not even deigned to admit the heinousness of the event before deciding she had it coming."

Are we great yet?

For anyone who was confused why I had so much passion during the 2024 election FAFO. Shooting innocent people. Raiding/terrorizing schools & neighborhoods. Withholding fed approved funding because you dont like the state. Kidnapping foreign leaders to steal their resources. All in year 1.

There's no way he's heard this. Literally no one would ever say "I need more health insurance commercials"

Arkansas only up 1 with 11 sec and its mayhem in Bud Walton Arena. Players getting ejected , fouling out.

While Trump murders people on boats for supposedly trafficking drugs, Jonathan Braun, a convicted drug trafficker serving a 10 year sentence he pardoned in 2021, will be sentenced in court today after he sexually assaulted a woman after Trump freed him from prison.

Images of Donald Trump appearing to close his eyes at an Oval Office announcement this week rocketed around social media this weekend, with the president’s opponents seizing on the footage to raise questions about Trump’s on-the-job performance.

It's college basketball's opening day! There are some big games. Here are 3 to watch tonight plus Texas/Duke tomorrow. I talk opening night viewing + my top mid-majors to watch in the latest pod. Listen to all my major conferences previews as well! #cbb

Nothing to see here. No conflicts. No oversight hearing needed. Comer is still too busy with Biden stuff.

I have a very bad feeling about this...

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in. Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators. The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

its weird that the president brags about inflicting pain on american citizens and cities right?

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

Robert Morris, the founder of a Texas megachurch with one of the nation’s largest congregations, pleaded guilty on Thursday to sexually abusing a girl in the 1980s, according to court documents.

Trump during the campaign: I never even heard of Project 2025, don’t know anything about it, don’t know who is involved. Trump today:

A statue depicting President Trump and the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein briefly appeared Tuesday on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., with the title, “Best Friends Forever,” and included lines from Trump’s birthday message to Epstein.

Finally reading the full Gold Card EO and wow is it wild. The order says that any person who pays $1 million is, by definition, a person of "exceptional business ability" and therefore qualified for an EB-2 visa. Does anything better sum up the Trump ethos than "all rich people are exceptional."?

Proud to announce our unnamed tech partners tracked the cell phone locations of hundreds of thousands of people without their knowledge or consent

Good lord. Will it ever end?

Likelihood that this happened? 0%

I just signed the petition to hold the gun industry accountable for its role in the gun violence crisis. Add your name now: etwn.us/3YxcSiU @Everytown

I've seen @governor.ca.gov be asked about his Twitter tone & rhetoric more in the last week than the Orange Dictator has been asked in nearly 10 years. What does that tell you?

Remembering today when pro-GOP media erupted with outrage over Kamala Harris' warning that Trump had plans to militarize the national guard and deploy them on the streets of US cities. Indeed, he had such plans. And now he's implementing them.

Tough talk from conservatives scared to death to drive/walk around cities where millions of people live. SmDH @ These snowflakes. I've been to DC 3x, including last year. Not once felt unsafe. Not once saw crime. One of my wife's best friends lives there & never complains about it.

it's pretty frustrating how republicans can just spew endless lies about city life with zero repercussions but the moment a dem disparages a pickup truck it's open season

So crime is down but we need federal military personnel in city streets? The mental gymnastics required to justify this BS is insane.

Trump deploying National Guardsmen in DC exposes one of his big lies about January 6th. Kash Patel falsely claimed for years that the Democrats failed to take Trump up on his offer to deploy the Guard on Jan. 6. But Trump could have deployed the DC Guard himself and didn’t. Now he does.

Spot on. I hadn't heard of this ad until right wingers started losing their mind. It's the most jean ad possible...nothing crazy or interesting about it. Fake outrage strikes again!

I think the idea that “The President is simultaneously an institution beyond the reach of criminal law and also a private person who can file $10 billion defamation suits when he dislikes a news article” is not very sensible.

Blatantly illegal and unethical. Also not what DOJ told the court. But whatever, we are a mafia country right now like Russia led by a Mob Boss and Republicans are all terrified of being the next Cheney/Good/Massie/Tillis.

Citizens united has created a political climate where elections are paid for by the deepest pockets. Not surprising they're going back for less restrictions on political campaign spending. Vultures

You can't convince me that a bunch of these ICE guys aren't proud boys and oath keepers. They don't have matching uniforms, cover their faces, and some look a tad, how do I say it, less than physically elite. If you're upholding law, have nothing to hide, & u were part of a govt org you'd match no?

Fact:

We know more about the guy who killed a MN state rep and her husband, nearly killing two more people, than we do about the idiot president's supposed assassin. That seems odd to me.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

“What Senator Alex Padilla did today was political theater.” --Kristi Noem, the Head of Costuming, Hair, and Makeup at Political Theater

Nothing Hunter Biden did comes even close to this level of open corruption.

All 3 top stories in the @nytimes.com newsletter today discuss corruption, lying, misleading info from the Trump admin. Wild stuff. Liars lie and their sycophants lie. And yet he's the supposed leader of the free world. My god.

So he's not a president for all. Punishing states who didn't vote for him. Classy. Hope all the red voters in blue states feel good...or just simply move.

Bragging about "acing a cognitive test" while saying "stage 9" cancer twice in the same press conference is...something.

X continued to take payments from accounts that appeared to be affiliated with Hezbollah leaders, Houthi officials, and militia leaders in Syria and Iraq, a nonprofit found. The report comes over a year after researchers warned that X may be violating U.S. sanctions by accepting such payments.

I feel like the AI programmed by the world's richest man telling users unsolicited to distrust courts and media for not taking South African "white genocide" narratives seriously enough should be a bigger story?
