I just want to thank everyone who listens to the @dailybeanspod.com. I put a ton of work into it and do all the research myself, and it's really an honor to be able to talk about the news with you. With appropriate profanity. And @tmbg.bsky.social doing the music. I really can't thank you enough.

Once again: RFK Jr is wrong about his job. He is not Lord High Scientist. It is not his place to make scientific determinations. Scientific knowledge is the product of a large community conducting many studies and debating results. When one lone individual claims to know best, we call him a crank.

Proud to be ID’ed as a feminist by Turtleboy, who agrees with me that we agree on very little except the Karen Read case, which is unifying across political lines. (Around 1h34m) I continue to stand by the fact that he is astonishingly well-sourced, despite whatever else you might think about him.

Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson’s new book reveals that many insiders had concerns about Joe Biden before his 2024 Presidential debate. Could reporters have pushed harder to get more of the story sooner?

The Heritage Foundation says it is going after antisemitism, but.."one clue that there’s something off about Project Esther’s definition of antisemitism is how often it tags Jews as perpetrators." Don't buy it. From @michellegoldberg.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/05/19/o...

I told my kids habeas corpus gives me the right to the last chocolate-chip cookie. It’s in the Constitution! Just like Lincoln used it.

I may not have read the books, but i have magically reviewed both Tapper and Comey’s new tell-alls- They are both hugely self-involved pricks who didn’t do the right things when it mattered, but now think we should be grateful that they were there at the time. Saved you a read.

Guardian: "During the McCarthy era’s darkest days, public lands came under attack. History now repeats itself – & this may be the last chance to defend what’s ours." Trump wants to ramp up logging/drilling in public lands, but now I see there's more to it. ... 1/2 www.esquire.com/news-politic...

What are they going to put in there now, minstrel shows? "Sorry about Woke-ilton <dry chukle>, but here's a MAGA approved stage version of Jolson's 1930 film 'Mammy.'" Maybe a 17/70MM print of "Birth of a Nation" on a loop every day for the next three and a half years? deadline.com/2025/05/kenn...
