In 2016 MN Police killed a Black man named Philando Castile despite him disclosing he had a legal firearm. Yesterday MN Police released a white woman named Jenny Boelter despite her car full of cash, firearms, & passports hours after her husband mass murdered people & was on the run from police.

😕

You lost your mind America!

Well this is awkward

Family member texted me this weekend and asked if I was anywhere near the “riots.” At that exact moment there were three helicopters above my hotel and a half-dozen police sirens. In that moment it’s abundantly clear who’s doing the rioting — and how rampant the misinformation is.

Amazing how hard it is to write: “Police shoot at journalists.”

Shocking: A Ukrainian soldier has revealed the scars on his body after Russian captivity—showing severe mutilation and a burned-in inscription reading “Glory to Russia”. These images expose the brutal treatment endured by Ukrainian POWs.

Greta Thunberg and other human rights defenders have been kidnapped by Israel on international waters. The aid they were delivering to Gaza that includes baby formula & medical supplies has been stolen. The ship Madleen was attacked with drones & will be forced to port at Ashdod Port. #3E #FreeGaza

Still true

If this isn’t a giant waste of taxpayer money, I don’t know what is.

Has anyone considered that the party the "liberal Joe Rogan" would be supporting should maybe be giving him some things to talk about? Like, what's the show going to be? A deep dive into Schumer's latest letter? Booker explaining his 20th confirmation vote?

“Well, Senator, I see the Constitution as kind of like a puppy. An excitable, untrained puppy that’s starting to really get on my nerves.”

Just a reminder that the "Fox News Channel" is just a name— it does not describe an actual news channel. The FNC's own description of its services is here, from its terms of use:

A Machinists member has been detained for more than 4 days near Seattle. www.thestand.org/2025/05/iam-...

None of the 278 men sent to CECOT have been returned. Meanwhile their lawyer has been arrested and "disappeared" in El Salvador.

Devastating. The cowardice and the betrayal of an incomparable news brand.

I hope they do arrest James Comey for the photo of sea shells. It will vividly illustrate to Americans who ignore politics and political news until a couple months before elections how truly demented and autocratic these freaks are, because they are just getting started.

Our allies for a century all hate us, but at least the rulers of Saudi Arabia and Qatar appreciate how easy it is to get what they want from our govt, and appear to enjoy our president’s willingness to trade US govt policy for personal enrichment. So we have some friends.

Good morning! #emu #cute #nature #animals

To my colleagues at Harvard with recently terminated NIH and NSF grants, please, please report them below. We’re told of at least 200 NSF grants and widespread NIH terminations. NIH: grant-watch.us/submit-nih.h... NSF: grant-watch.us/submit-nsf.h... And please spread the word 🙏

lol…

was recently told by a scholar of some note that it was out of bounds to compare trump's purge of black people from the federal government to wilson's efforts to resegregate the federal bureaucracy

happy mother's day

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

🤦🏻‍♀️

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

we lost two Super Hornets to the waves and I haven’t seen any discussion of the race or gender of anyone who might be at fault, which means I have a pretty good guess as to the race and gender of everyone who might be at fault

And there you have it.

Scientists have created a broadly effective antivenom using the blood of a Wisconsin man who has spent years exposing himself to deadly snakebites from black mambas, taipans, cobras and many others.

Ok I am completely broken by this. The Hague and UN need to see this. #Texas

If you’re attending the White House Correspondents Association dinner tonight, be sure to come prepared with a joke about the toddler cancer patient they just disappeared despite her being a citizen. Otherwise it’s going to be awkward when you’re mugging for photos with Stephen Miller.

There it is. The clam before the storm.

Days since Navarro said this: 10 Trade deals: 0

Just like Trump.

Homeland Security Secretary cannot secure own handbag

Expect more headlines like this. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

National security clearances? Overrated. Now you too can stay in the loop—thanks to Pete Hegseth’s Friends & Family Plan! youtube.com/shorts/-CKXq...

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.
