Pretty cool that the unflinchingly corrupt leader of our country is so dumb, so corrupt, and so malleable that he doesn’t have the first clue who he’s letting out of jail or why.

Jesus

okay one time talking about heaven is just a random thought word vomited into the world. This is what? the third or fourth time?

Note: Incredible collaboration in stopping a massive data center project that would have consumed 2 to 3 million gallons of water a day.

Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

Happening right now. To us. In America.

New statute of limitations doctrine just dropped.

What the fuck

Not a denial

It's bullshit that I agree with David Frum. Things shouldn't have sunk so low that we've reached our level of agreement! We should be in the realm where we disagree on every issue in the news!

Susan Monarez alleged she was fired from being the director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for “holding the line on scientific integrity.” Follow live updates from her Senate testimony:

If Trump wasn't in the Epstein files, Kash Patel would be happy to say so plainly. His evasiveness says plenty.

An investigation by ProPublica and @texastribune.org found more than 60 instances of nepotism, self-dealing and conflicts of interest among 27 private schools that likely would have violated state laws had the schools been public. By Lexi Churchill and @emsimani.bsky.social

This week, Florida's surgeon general announced plans to scrap school vaccine requirements in the state. The step has emboldened figures across the “health freedom” movement who hope it will inspire other states to follow suit.

Nov 2016: WaPo reports Next News Network site founder, Gary S. Franchi Jr. instructed staff to weave together reports from traditional sources such as AP and LA Times with ones from RT, Sputnik and others that provided articles that often spread explosively online now they're in the White House?

CNN put together a clip of RKF Jr denying today he linked antidepressants and mass shootings, followed by a clip of RFK Jr last week linking antidepressants and mass shootings

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff’s Gulfstream G700 private jet just took off from San Francisco and is headed to Hawaii, using the Privacy ICAO Address program in attempt to hide his flight. This comes right after Salesforce announced 4,000 layoffs and a significant drop in stock prices this week.

I’m so grateful that I have tenure and the academic freedom to call it like I see it. “Dr. Kathleen Bachynski, a professor of public health at Muhlenberg College, described Kennedy’s comments as “absolute gibberish” and slammed the HHS secretary as a “dangerous buffoon” who is “threatening us all.”

The city's school system looks almost nothing like it did 20 years ago. People in New Orleans have strong opinions about whether that's good or bad, but the data is hard to argue with.

The reality is simple our rights are not bargaining chips. Liberty is not something you trade away for “temporary safety”, because when you do, you lose both.

We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

Christopher Kinnison, who owns a one-man law firm in the central Louisiana, is "tired of losing.” His clients are among the thousands of people who had been detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement after President Trump took office.

Turns out the Justice Department sent Congress the Epstein files, but they were the same ones already made public.

It is almost a badge of honor in the journalism industry to have a “New York Times didn’t credit me” story. It’s bafflingly infuriating, both because of the state of local/nonprofit media and because of the many NYT folks I know who would personally go out of their way to give credit where due.

Kilmar Abrego García's legal team contends the Trump administration is trying to force him to plead guilty or face deportation to an African nation where crime and terror threats abound.

But Hillary’s emails I guess

New in PN: Dan Bongino's babysitter "The problem appears to be that Bongino and his boss, FBI Director Kash Patel, are terrible at their jobs."

This is nazi logic. The Nazis would redistribute the confiscated property of Jews to the German populace as an incentive to support their mass deportation to concentration camps.

A stunning violation of the privacy of children and their parents by a confessed serial sexual predator, adjudicated rapist and convicted criminal. Truly disgusting. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/20/u...

Paul Weiss and Kirkland lawyers were always comfortable getting paid a lot to make the world worse, so I guess there's a tiny crumb of justice in how they now have to do it for free.

you rarely encounter a perfect intro..........but when you do

"Dems can turn things around by holding up people who are working hard on this issue & succeeding. Brandon Scott talking about how he actually brought down crime in Baltimore is more effective than the blathering of 'strategists' whose answer to everything is that Dems should act like Republicans."

Civil rights lawyers say many migrant detainees in Florida's "Alligator Alcatraz" are being barred from meeting regularly with attorneys and are being held in dangerous conditions.

Lmao

These dipshits left schedules and protocol details on a printer in Alaska. Nothing earthshaking - menu for a lunch that didn't happen, seating chart for the bilat, revelation that Trump gave Putin a present - but it's yet another embarrassing opsec fail for a guy who ran on protecting secret info.

"Republicans are a death cult" isn't hyperbole, it's a statement of fact. Why would anyone want to know *less* about our Earth? Because knowing about changes to our climate, storms, land, water, and air saves lives and makes lives better, and they hate that, they want death and destruction.

The world got a glimpse of Marwan Barghouti for the first time in years in a video of a far-right Israeli minister berating him.

For decades, the biomedical industry has relied on a compound in horseshoe crab blood to protect medical equipment from contamination, saving untold human lives. But conservationists say modern medicine’s dependence on this bloodletting is upending a globe-spanning ecosystem.

The notable thing about posts like this is they reveal that MAGAs actually view Putin as a wise old sage and source of wisdom instead of a dictator and war criminal

For a host of reasons, it's outrageous that Republicans are on the warpath against renewables. It's outright sabotage of the American economy in favor of our enemies, global warming, and a handful of exceptionally dim investors with their money tied up in more-expensive-per-kW fossil fuel energy.

Trump drops his demand that Russia stop attacking Ukraine, conveys to U.S. allies Putin's demand for the whole Donbas – including land his forces don’t occupy The swerve lets Russia keep bombing Ukrainian cities without fear of more U.S. sanctions www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

They can order all the want, the current administration doesn’t listen, and has shown that there aren’t any consequences for doing so. You have to ensure there are consequences for violating these orders, and there are none

Pete Hegseth’s support for Doug Wilson highlights a fringe belief gaining traction in the GOP

I don’t think the democrats will embrace him. They clearly refuse to look at the writing on the wall because it will shake up their power structure, and because of that they are dying.
