Steak ’N Shake Employee Screams After Nude RFK Jr. Climbs Out Of Beef Tallow Fryer

you know what? good advice.

I know what you're going to say: if renewables are so cost effective why do they need subsidies? Wait until you see how many subsidies we give to fossil fuel companies

The piece quotes Kara Swisher — later identified as a friend of Nuzzi's — saying her piece about Biden's age was "the best political reporting out there." But it wasn't! It came out two weeks after the debate and is just a bunch of anonymous quotes from insiders. Replacement-level stuff.

This is *depraved* -- glamor shots & an exculpatory feature for a woman who shit on the key central tenets of journalism, repeatedly. NYT is celebrating elite freedom from accountability. Actively celebrating it. You wouldn't put this in a satire, it's too ham-handed!

That would be infinitely more palatable messaging than "Standing up to Donald Trump doesn't work." That it's not the messaging they used suggests to me that maybe it wasn't their reasoning, though, which is a huge part of what made me so angry in the first place.

It isn't the strategy I wanted. I think Republicans would have, in fact, eventually caved (by killing the filibuster). But here we are.

I'm mad about the shut down and worried about healthcare, but not letting people starve is a pretty good reason to cave on this bureaucratic fight, the more I think about it. So just say that: Republicans wanted you to starve rather than compromise, so we let this one go.

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months" China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

The server I keep my “Imagine If Biden Had Done This” file on is using more energy than all AI models combined.

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

Hundreds of thousands of people, dead because of a decision made by the world's richest man

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE MUST CREDIT: Lunch for jurors in the “sandwich guy” trial are a variety of sandwiches, according to a source familiar with lunch.

Y'all ever notice how nobody can ever actually point to any *specific thing* that Mamdani *actually said* that was antisemitic, and how people are just baldly asserting it anyway

The DNC didn't win last night; the fired-up Democratic voters did.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

this is a FLEX and I love it

Whenever they call Mamdani a Communist remind them of this: finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-a...

I love that Zohran did not praise Cuomo in his speech. You absolutely do not have to say nice things about bad people. We should normalize that in “polite” politics: Praising bad people is not actually “civility.”

This NYT story about how Mamdani dealt with the opposition by the city's elites fails to mention one particular elite institution: The NYT editorial page, which last June railed against him as "uniquely unsuited to the city’s challenges... lacks political savvy" www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/n... 1/

This is a very big deal. This is an incredibly segregated state with massive disparities in infrastructure across racism and economic lines and this is one step closer to ending that

Really can't be exaggerated how poisonous it is that @mattyglesias.bsky.social has taken up the "climate vs material prosperity" framing. It's empirically false. It's straightforwardly right-wing. It's going to make it harder to pass good policies. It's going to set that whole debate back.

Bill Ackman gotta be on the third draft of a tweet longer than Middlemarch right now

Young people in NYC absolutely showed out and there should be 1000 articles and profiles about this. Because we have had to put up with 1000 MAGA diner stories for years now.

i hope to see enterprising democrats announce their intent to retire schumer and gillibrand over the next two years.

😭😭😭

Cringe is back, folks, and it's going to save this country.

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

Welch: Mike Johnson-If he's a big Christian, he should be fighting for the marginalized, fighting for the poor. But instead he weaponizes his faith to lure voters in and then dicks him over every chance he gets.

Holy fuck the number of texts I’ve gotten from Janet Mills’ campaign in the last 2 days is maddening. There has to be data showing what a turn off this is, right? I donate to swingy campaigns and this is what I’m rewarded with. Non stop harassment.

www.the-express.com/news/politic... The First Lady proudly admits she has been in contact with the Dictator running our greatest enemy, who is at war with Europe, and the media is talking about the deaths of people you never heard of. What has happened to this country?

Breaking News: The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to María Corina Machado, a Venezuelan opposition leader, for her work promoting democracy.

This is a professor at Rutgers who teaches a class on the history of anti-fascism. He also teaches about human rights. He has received multiple death threats and been doxed. He is relocating to Europe for his safety. This is where we are in the US now. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

fucking WOOF

@warnock.senate.gov: "As a man of faith, here's something that I have noticed about evil... Evil always gets a little bit too impressed with itself. It's filled up with hubris. Evil always goes too far, and because it goes too far, it contains within itself the seed of its own destruction."

ICE getting tailed like it’s a heist movie. Chicago is turning the tables.

Can’t believe I have to say this, but in Minnesota you will continue to have the freedom to get your COVID and flu shots.

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

She's Canadian, you wouldn't know her.

I'm on the record saying that Russ Vought will do things during the shutdown that will make his illegal rescissions visible in the way they otherwise weren't. And boy howdy, threatening to ignore the law on backpay is a great example. [corrected]

this is the jacket's breast pocket lining pulled up to make it look like a pocket square

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years. From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

How can you negotiate with Republicans in Congress to fund the government when as soon as you reach an agreement you know that Trump’s OMB director will just withhold the funds?

Excited to introduce Vibes from Meta. Eat your slop, piggies!

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

Is this supposed to be a threat? They did this exact thing while the government was open

i have seen exactly zero evidence to suggest that peter thiel is anything other than a dumbass who got lucky once
