Hegseth's costuming suggests he blows his nose on the American flag.

Strong henchman energy here.

NANCY PELOSI: We must find the next generation of Democratic leadership. Young, charismatic and exciting candidates who can energize the party. People that voters love because they're not 80 years old and sold out to big capital. CHUCK SCHUMER (behind sniper rifle): Found one PELOSI: Take the shot

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

Well that's shitty. "Even the liberal Ninth Circuit..." (yes I know who the judges were).

Do we think he wears a little g-string in the tanning booth, or nothing at all? Do we prefer not to conjure those images?

Thanks to NPR for explaining that due to the ancient, mysterious culture of Persia, Iranians "don't like to be attacked" npr.org/2025/06/16/n...

Attacking empty cars = attacking people?

Ben Shapiro getting all upset at the parade coverage as though he isn't used to taking part in activities where no one comes

Regular liberal people must come to understand that there is no way you can appease Nazis and especially that there is no way that you can shrink yourself so they won't hurt you. Their main goal is to hurt you.

She's got her fingers on Elon's griddle!

I'm not a political scientist but if you're advice to the Democratic Party is pushing out unions, immigrants, and queers then I think there's already a party for that

Not enough people are talking about the embarrassing state of the @bart.gov faregates. BART claims that their "Next Generation Fare Gates" are able to allow up to 40 passengers per minute. Anecdotal observations show that they're managing less than 1/3 of that, closer to 12 px/minute.

Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi went to a consulate in Istanbul to get a document he needed to get married. Instead, he was murdered and dismembered on the orders of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, now a close pal of Donald Trump.

This is why we tax the fuckers and don’t rely on their philanthropy

If we as a society are ever to metabolize the collective trauma of COVID, we’re going to need an animated Wellerman movie.

Marco Rubio making a strong play to be the Tom Wambsgans of Trump II.

That frothy mix of senility and antisocial narcissism.

I sometimes feel Stancil gets too much hate, as it's often over mere style/tone issues and he often makes decent points, but then he pulls this kind of shit. Somehow more annoying than Yggles because he's so painfully sincere on top of the other problems.

It's a high bar, but this from @radleybalko.bsky.social might be one of the most fucked up things I've read in the new Trump era. For context, this TX lawyer had just had an informal conversation with a family caught up in ICE raids. Seriously. Read this. radleybalko.substack.com/p/the-courag...

It’s the ridiculous quality of the lies that’s the biggest tell for fascism.

Also this US Attorney seems barely literate? And deeply confused about a whole lot of stuff?

Interesting rhetoric by very conservative Judge Harvie Wilkinson--he's trying to warn and convince some of the conservatives on the Supreme Court, if not the Trump administration lawyers.

I look at close to 100 stories a week and even more outside of work. I’ve done this ten years. This is among the most horrific things I’ve ever read — testimony from dying children whose access to medicine has been cut off by the Trump administration. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

Sorry Amy chua you tiger-raised a fascist moron

RIP Yale law school

Chugging a couple cans of lukewarm Coke Zero this morning to increase burprates.
