You get a merger! And you get a merger! MERGERS ALL AROUND

The first photo here is fake. A still from the same moment shows that Trump's head wasn't drooping like that. Also, he'd just adjusted his tie, which is why the guy two to the left of RFK is looking at him. Actual still at right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ctx...

Very Freedom of Speech Absolutism here

"Traders placed a series of bets worth $430M on a drop in crude prices just 15 minutes before U.S. President Donald Trump ​said he would extend a ceasefire with Iran on Tuesday." Reminder that the top official at the SEC responsible for investigating insider trading was recently forced out. Hello?

Just an impossibly small man

Holy fucking shit this is priceless

They think you're stupid.

it really speaks to the double standard pervasive throughout all of politics that even when Democrats play dirty they put it up to a public referendum and still get harsher media coverage

key thing we learned from Virginia campaign Republicans are freaked the fuck out about accountability Not just Trump, all of them - including their billionaires, like Thiel They fear what's coming when Dems win - and Dems need to be ruthless about it

if this polling result surprises you, i am issuing emergency guidance for you to touch grass immediately

Ossoff continues to understand the assignment

No way

Peter Magyar is not playing around at all. He's going to purge every single remnant of corrupt Orbanism. This is exactly how Dems need to be when they retake power.

this is why Dems need to go as hard as possible on reforms and actually fixing things rather than kick the can, because "people will remember how bad things were and not put these folks back in charge" is a demonstrably false statement

Absolutely. "These people are stealing your tax money, robbing you of services you paid for to enrich themselves. I will stop that." That's a pretty simple and effective message.

modern technofascists out here like "we are the only ones strong enough to Save Civilization™ and also if you are mean to us about any of it, the whole thing will fall apart instantly"

Palantir-bros: "we should reject hollow pluralism. empathy is evil" The masses: "Okay, your technofash ideas about what culture is and should be are worth less than the paper they're written on." Palantir-bros: "wait, not like that! we should bring back grace and empathy, but only for tech CEOs"

Enough about Hasan Piker. Can we yell about Nick Fuentes instead?

I blast Clarence Thomas as a threat to America

I genuinely don't understand the Catholics who yell at the Pope. The whole point of Protestantism is that Catholics aren't allowed to disagree with the Pope on theology! If you want to disagree with the Pope, just be a Protestant!

I'm still apocalyptically mad that Trump gave the Babbitt family and Mike fucking Flynn millions of my tax dollars, and is teeing up more bribes to J6 participants.

Trying to explain St Augustine to the pope, the former head of the Augustinian order, who wrote his doctoral thesis on Augustine, on his way back from celebrating mass at the Basilica of St Augustine in Annaba, Algeria, overlooking the site where Augustine lived is peak Adult Catholic Convert.

LIV selling out to Trump, then having the PGA woo Trump into turning on LIV, and LIV eventually shutting down has been something special to behold

Good Lord

This quote is so illuminating about the MAGA worldview Rather than encouraging industry to adapt to changing tech and trends and outcompete others, we just box out competitors and threats You see it mostly in green tech, but its the same status fear that drives immigration, trans hate, etc

Cool seeing a bunch of cool film dudes like @markhamillofficial.bsky.social @diedrichbader.bsky.social and @alexwinter.com be cool

There's no greater sign of the iron grip that "both sides" framing has on American journalists than the repeated descriptions of the unhinged tantrum Trump is throwing over the pope's anodyne statements on Catholic doctrine as a "feud" or a "fight" or anything else that implies they're both to blame

For decades, birthday party clowns folded balloons and played games. John Wayne Gacy is taking a different approach.

You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

Prosecute the bastards

"The New Testament is a brutal destroyer of human illusions. If you follow Jesus and don't end up dead, it appears you have some explaining to do [...] The traumatic truth of human history is a mutilated body. " - Terry Eagleton

it'll be back in three days

It's almost like "Republicans are good for the economy" is a complete gaslight that the media helps them sell The truth is that the Republicans are good for rich people and lie to the rest of voters that they will share the looting, which they never do

There's a strong chance Trump thinks a blockade is literally just placing ships in a straight line and yelling "Red Rover"

I can't look the rest up, but Trump shocked everyone by outrunning basically every Senate contest in 24 In TX, Trump won by 13 but Cruz only won by 8.5 Probably a better benchmark for 26 #TXSen

your tds wont let you even consider that donald trump is a god

It would be incredible if Trump ends up doing more for reducing global emissions by starting this war than Harris may have done by staying in the Paris Agreement

Trump is running an interesting experiment in how many self-identified Christian Americans have actual religious commitments and how many are just into it because it provides a means for the socially defensible expression of bigotry bsky.app/profile/bria...

Rory McIlroy Struggling To Fit Big Check Into Mobile Deposit Photo

Justin Rose what was that

Ok that chip from Cam Young on 8 was awesome

Step 1 of the future we want

Don't sleep on Ossoff for 28

Holy smokes Rory what is going on with the putter???
