After the recent news about FanDuel banning a bettor who heckled Olympic gold medalist Gabby Thomas because it "made [his] parlay win," I have tapped into my authoritarian side and come up with an idea to ban people like this from all sports everywhere forever. www.splinter.com/a-plan-to-ba...

The richest man in the world said he bought Congress for the GOP and that should give him the ability to set policy. If you think this is just gawking/schadenfreude, you're really missing a ton of what's going on here.

Pretty funny that Trump woke up thinking we'd all be talking about his phone call with Xi today

The "Epstein Files will destroy our enemies" stuff is maybe my favorite example of how impenetrable the mindset is. Far more photos of Trump w Epstein than any of his political enemies. And yet! Unshakable belief that The Files will take down Hillary or whoever.

There is no master plan. It’s just cope to avoid the fact we get dunked on by the dumbfuck brigade with astounding regularity.

A widely respected VC in tech posting "just drop the tax cuts" about a GOP bill is further proof that these people don't know jack shit about the world outside their niche specialties

I say this a lot but we are all so lucky this generation of fascists came of age on message boards and not stabbing people to death at close range in a trench while the world detonates endlessly around them

Elon endorsed impeaching Trump before the Democrats did

Feel like Elon may have ripped a hole in right-wing spacetime today and the implications will ripple across the web for years

Big day for people who are so exhausting they've been rejected by nearly everyone in their shrinking circle of confidants

Good time to remember that Gawker reported in 2015 that Trump was in Epstein's little black book archive.vn/eupVG

seems like the sort of thing a functioning opposition party could really make hay with! oh well!!

Imo the Democratic Party is at the center of this tension. Lot of folks are negatively polarized for/against it and it warps a lot of these debates. If we had a political system with center-left, left, center-right, right, etc...parties, a healthier form of coalitional politics could play out.

This goes both ways. After lefties helped shape, fight for and defend much of Biden's IRA, people's opposition to a genocide was met with a refusal to even platform a Palestinian American speaker at the DNC next to cops and anti-abortion advocates.
