Thr South Korean president criticized Israel, Israel got super mad about the mention of the Holocaust, and not the far worse reference. The president compared them to imperial Japan, which is like the worst thing a Korean can call anyone or anything www.theverge.com/policy/91358...

Lying and being pro Israel is worse than just being openly pro Israel imo

Good! Hopefully, Traitor Trump flees to Russia or Israel to avoid being taxed. 🖕😄🖕

There’s so much to say about the remarkable reporting from Jodi Kantor & Adam Liptak—and I’ll say a lot of it in Monday’s newsletter. But the most striking thing about all of it is the role & behavior of Chief Justice Roberts. “Calling balls and strikes” this ain’t: www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

The conservative justices on the Supreme Court believe that a Democratic president acting in the public interest is unconstitutional, but a Republican president acting in his own personal interest is a-okay. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

you just know somebody’s being called by their full name right now

A peer reviewed study shows a promising link between flu and shingles vaccines and a reduced risk of dementia. A heroin addict who cut off a raccoon’s penis for “further study” says these vaccines cause autism. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Multiple peer reviewed studies in high impact journals have shown a substantial benefit of gender affirming care for trans youth. A heroin addict who cut off a raccoon's penis for "further study" says this care is dangerous. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Donald Trump is a reflection of what America has become: a nation comprised primarily of uneducated, arrogant, racist buffoons without a conscience or even basic social skills, scamming their way thru life with impunity while believing that laws apply only to other people— never to them.

These guys are the reason I need antidepressants

New euphemism for "pure, unadulterated horseshit" just dropped

A mum comforts her little boy on the bus. He is crying about something. She says, ‘It’s ok. Have a good cry.’ Man nearby: Well done. We’re so bad at letting boys just feel sad.

A body of water that was open to all traffic 2 months ago now has a toll booth and can only be accessed by ships the Iranians allow through it. Massive win for the great deal maker 🙃

I was at a dog-friendly bar in NW Portland tonight and a table behind me started singing Happy Birthday and then I realized it wasn’t for a person but a really old dog who was wearing a crown and he was old and fucking adorable and I love this city

this is what America can be

It’s not hard to figure out why many people reluctantly support Platner when this is what Schumer and the Democrats decided to trot out. Pathetic.

All this really indicates to me is that brands have way too much money www.reuters.com/markets/on-t...

Time for more "Joe Rogan is abandoning Trump" takes.

Another data point in “originalism is a fraud.” So much for the law is the law we can’t think about the impact. They rail against “results oriented judging” in public but when their corporate clients make requests they know exactly what to do. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

The Newspaper: nooooooo you have to debate every bad faith asshole in the worrrrrrld no matter how incoherent or wretched their supposed views are The Pope: nope I’m gonna wear a big hat

it is, among other things, incredibly striking to see that roberts was so solicitous of the burden the clean power plan might put on fossil fuel executives, when, a decade later, he is indifferent to the way trump’s moves have thrown hundreds of thousands of lives into turmoil.

Hey @nytimes.com, I already reported this earlier this week. And the G650s you mention? I reported on those in FEBRUARY. You credit NBC News and WSJ for first reporting parts of your story. Please credit me, too.

This is honestly the best case scenario for the FBI under Trump. Better an incompetent drunk than someone competent turning it into Trump's personal gestapo.

that beep beep beep sound you hear is the president and his family backing a truck up to the US treasury... www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

This is crazy. Just open-air larceny.

This is one of those situations where I’m not sure if Trump has legit gossip or he just loves defamation and knows he can get away with it

“According to nine people familiar with the incident” This is journalist for, we got the receipts dude, tell your lawyers to go fuck themselves. And btw, we got more.

Hahahahahahahaha Oh my! Is this an opening para or is this an opening paragraph? This alone should end any normal human cabinet secretary.

It's not the MOST pathetic thing Vance has done, but him going to Hungary to applaud man who condemned "race mixing" is absolutely wretched (🎁) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Holy shit, I have NEVER been more excited for a movie.

Once again, the right is openly admitting that the entire focus on trans youth is to ultimately ban all gender affirming care for adults. All the credulous reporters and institutions that helped launder this right wing project are responsible. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Famously vengeful Knicks owner Jim Dolan has long spied on people at his iconic arenas. WIRED goes deep inside the operation that allegedly tracked a trans woman, lawyers, protesters, and more. www.wired.com/story/madiso...

This story is crazy! The Jim Dolan had a Knicks fan obsessively monitored at games just because she was trans.

this race-bending the new musketeers thing is taking it way too far, next they'll be claiming Dumas was black or something

he triggers everyone so badly. remember when the NYT decided that he wasn't allowed to identify as an african american and tried to use documents leaked by twitter race science accounts to sink his candidacy? and it did absolutely fuckin nothing to derail him???? i think about it often

Anyone who claims that we don't know the cause of climate change is either a liar or a moron.

You can see why Randy Barnett is worried about why bad-faith and dishonest constitutional advocacy would lead to discipline.

Trumpist Law Professors: John Eastman advocates for you being disenfranchised if you voted for the wrong party and shot by the army if you protest it. If you disagree, you’re INTOLERANT

Very very sane

remember when celebrities seemingly randomly started coming out talking about how much they loved NFTs and thought it was super valuable and the future?

First & foremost, @lindseyboylan.bsky.social is more than deserving of this endorsement. Second & just as important, fuck this headline. Lindsey didn’t accuse Cuomo of harassment. Cuomo harassed Lindsey. Period. She is not an accusor. She is a survivor-advocate. Show some respect. Report the truth.

Remember this fuck when his name comes on the ballot.

Question for Randy Barnett: If I used whatever legal skills I have to make legal arguments I know to be unsound and without a legitimate legal basis, backed by alleged facts I know to be untrue, to bring a frivolous case claiming he should be fired and disbarred, should I be immune from punishment?

I’m glad these two found each other

It is an uncomfortable conversation to have but losing Zionist Jews is a price Democrats may have to pay to stand for what is right. Luckily, anti-Zionist Jews like myself are increasingly relevant but there’s simply no appeasing people who look at what Israel has done and support it.

I truly did not appreciate Google Photos sending me a mobile notification tonight saying "Look who we found" with an album of pics of my cat who just died earlier today.

@mayor.nyc.gov: "If you are a Mario Kart fan, government is Yoshi and philanthropy is the Golden Mushroom, that edge we need to beat Bowser on the Rainbow Road. To belabor this metaphor even further, Bowser is corporate greed in this scenario."

This is an almost perfect example of why the ruling class turns to fascism to crush the threat of socialism and the power of the working class.

How is “viewpoint diversity” not just affirmative action for people with bad ideas
