this guy's combination of obscene wealth and inability to keep his dick in his pants ended vaccination in America www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

💬 Perspective: Aluminum exposure from routine vaccines is significantly lower than dietary sources, and current evidence supports vaccine safety with no identified health risks. ja.ma/4dztwJk

This is amusing. A reminder Craig Brittain was fined by the FTC for setting up both a site where he asked people to send him non-consensual naked images of their exes AND a fake "lawyer" who you could pay to get your images taken down. www.ftc.gov/news-events/...

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But... ...maybe there wasn't much planning?

It's "strait" of Hormuz, not "straits". That is all.

Behind Rakhi Israni's empty rhetoric is a record of cutting checks to far-right extremists. Israni claims she’s running as a Democrat when she’s really running as a fraud.

NEW: A Democratic candidate in the primary in Eric Swalwell’s district raised $2M in the first two weeks of her campaign from unknown donors. Rakhi Israni’s personal political donations have gone to over 10 MAGA and far right candidates including Laura Loomer. theintercept.com/2026/03/04/c...

Criminalizing protest is a hallmark of repression. This case isn’t isolated. It’s part of a broader effort to silence dissent and erode democracy. But despite the administration’s best efforts, we’re going to win.

It’s hard to overstate how freakish it is for law enforcement who just shot someone to be shuffled off to other assignments with no investigative period at all.

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

My Republican colleagues must take notice: The U.S. cannot base foreign policy on whether or not a president gets a prize. This is pathetic. It is petty and dangerous narcissism — behavior we might expect from a spoiled child, not the leader of a democratic nation.

If you're following the unbuilding of CBS News: "A story with on-camera sources, legal clearance, and five rounds of vetting gets killed for not being ready. A story with anonymous sources and internal objections gets published because the editor-in-chief wanted it." www.readtpa.com/p/what-the-t...

NEW: The ICE agent who killed Renee Good yesterday in Minneapolis appears to be an Iraq war veteran named Jonathan Ross who lives in Minnesota. Me, @noahhurowitz.bsky.social and @jesswash.bsky.social theintercept.com/2026/01/08/i...

Watch how the authoritarian denying reality frames events: Blame shift Threat inflation Conspiracy (“coordinated” “ppl are being trained” —by who?) “it’s clear” is a rhetorical substitute for evidence; a power move that pressures audience to accept her frame even tho they saw something else.

A 6-year-old just lost his mother. A woman was shot in the face in front of her wife. The swift, lockstep attempt to dehumanize and villainize Renee Nicole Good might be the most depraved thing we've seen yet from these ghouls and their supporters. These people are utterly fucking dead inside.

Allow me to connect some dots for you: Too much of the world currently relies for its basic functions on resources which must be continuously extracted. You burn that oil one time and oops, now you need more. Geopolitical horrors are, in fact, one of the reasons we need to move to renewables ASAP.

Mamdani has only been Mayor for a day & criminals are already fleeing New York

"Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism. Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories.

Everyone does know what's going on here, right? Should the Epstein evidence bill pass both the House and Senate, these criminals will say it can't be released because there is an active investigation. Never mind that a thorough investigation was completed, and the DOJ was prepared to try Epstein.

I didn’t think Scott Adams could ever make me laugh again Cheers to all the little surprises in life 🥂

THIS is actually part of the FDR memorial, not in the wall of the former East Wing.

If you live in San Francisco, today is a good day to familiarize yourself with the San Francisco Rapid Response Network, which has a 24-hour hotline for reporting ICE raids, actually verifies those raid reports, and does attorney activation: sfilen.org/resources/sf...

"To be a Republican in 2025 represents a clear public confession that you either don't know the difference between good and evil and you're so morally empty that you can't be bothered to begin to try, or that you do know the difference, and you prefer evil." Great essay from @juliusgoat.bsky.social

They arrested people on the job, so it’s not about being unemployed. They arrested people in court seeking legal status, so it’s not about legality. They used the IRS to track the undocumented, so it’s not about taxes. This is about punishment, not justice. #crueltyIStheONLYpoint

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white. Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace. That’s not making America great again.

Her name is Usha Vance, show some respect.

If you feel like you’re not gambling to your full potential, come to Pete Hegseth’s motivational speech tomorrow in the cocktail lounge.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee implies the existence of a Petit Cherokee.

While Stephen Miller claims that Democrats calling him a fascist constitutes incitement, there are hundreds of examples of Miller publicly calling Democrats fascists.
