Stephen Miller's uncle speaks out against his nephew's position on immigrants. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ucx...

Nothing is a fucking distraction from anything it’s all the one thing

I think this is the right take. From outside of New York, I know it seems NYC is a hotbed of democratic liberalism. But actual New York politics are almost the reverse: the New York Democratic Party leadership is united mainly by trying to keep the left from power.

New Jersey Democratic Rep. Josh Gottheimer endorses the bombing of Iran

really great how swiftly Trump & co have made the U.S. a shithole country that can't even suspend the routine for five minutes for international visitors, like plenty of repressive regimes are able to pull off all the time

We've already seen the initial story evolve. That will continue. This is what the sequence of headlines will be.

Pretty amazing that a former president will sit quietly as one of his successors orders US troops into American cities and ships innocent people off to concentration camps—but feels compelled to speak up when a fellow HR nightmare is at risk of losing to another member of the same party.

The Trump regime is openly contradicting all of its own intelligence on Iran in order to justify its obscene acts now. Why should anyone believe what they say about the outcomes of the bombings––or anything else, at this point? They are not credible sources.

I don't really subscribe to newsletters, especially paid ones. Not really my thing. However, there are some exceptions. If you're not subbing to @marisakabas.bsky.social's The Handbasket, you're missing out. https://www.thehandbasket.co/p/exclusive-the-onion-nyt-ad-congress-cowardice

The least surprising results imaginable. In the words of @madisoncondon.bsky.social: "under a climate changed future, the future will not look like the past, and there is no reason to expect that these relationships between historic temperatures and economic output will hold."

Word for word the same argument that got us into the Iraq War: "Look how bad this country is"

Is Adolf Hitler an Antagonist to Germany's Gay Community? Not So Fast say Ernst Röhm and Edmund Heines.

Really feel like the NYC mayor’s race shows that there is no such thing as a progressive establishment, and there is, in fact, an anti-progressive establishment that runs all the way from Murdoch to Clinton

its still kinda surreal that the tiktok ban passed into law with supermajorities and got held up as valid and then we're just doing this thing were we are like "haha no"

Kim Jong-Un has got to be insufferable on the phone with the ayatollah right now. “Woah, he bombed you? Shit, bro. That’s crazy. He shook my hand and offered to build me some hotels. Anyway, I gotta go. Have another nuke test to schedule. Best of luck rebuilding your reactors.”

The U.S. reached out to Iran diplomatically on Saturday to say the strikes are all the U.S. plans and that regime change efforts are not planned, sources tell CBS News

The sex pest coalition is really coming together in NYC

Trump winning a second time caused being an asshole to be victory coded with morally corrosive effects that will be felt for generations.

For what it's worth, the last NBA champion to win a pair of Game 7s was the 2013 Miami Heat, who went the distance in both the conference finals (vs. Indiana) and NBA Finals (famously coming back to beat San Antonio).

Rapist Voltron forming up in this primary

It’s been fascinating to see nominally anti Trump people support Trump on the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil or the illegal bombing of Iran. It’s funny to imagine you can claim to be any different than Stephen Miller or some January 6th thug at that point.

What is with all this "risks further escalation" stuff? We escalated. We are at war.

Iran's nuclear buildup: a direct result of Trump I.

Oligarchy, baby.
