Framing like this should be considered a form of misinformation. Antisemitism in America in 2025 overwhelmingly emanates from the political right. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/14/o...

I think the chatter about the murderer in MN probably being an actual cop is on to something. I mean, if he wasn’t a cop, seems important to prove that asap

These are assassinations to flip control of the Minnesota House (was 67-67) and Senate (was 34-33).

there’s got to be some kind of statute of limitations on this crap. I get moral hazard, I get all of that, it’s just completely insane to say that this guy who built an American life for 30 years isn’t American.

We won in 2020 and lost in 2024, so the implication that mass protests are bad for Democrats doesn’t have a lot of evidence behind it www.nytimes.com/2025/06/12/u...

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

I'm imagining ICE doing to NYC what it's doing to LA — and the people of NYC responding the way people are in LA — and it all happening under Mayor Cuomo. He'll side with ICE, DHS and, of course, the NYPD. This man, who hates the city and doesn't live here, can not become mayor. Don't rank him.

Thinking about how the car-centric nature of Mario Kart World hurts its residents. Toads have to cross a road where there is racing going on just to get from the lifeguard station to the water.

Pretty egregious error from this book: The authors say Swedish deaths fell by 2.3% during the pandemic, proving that the country's lax lockdown strategy worked. But they misread their source: Mortality is only down if you remove the COVID deaths. research.abo.fi/ws/portalfil...

The willful usage of “fractional” in describing yourself professionally is sad. Why people do that, I have no idea.
