if you represent or work for a hospital who gets investigated by the FBI, i want to talk to you. my signal is in my bio.

The reason the Democratic Party is so ineffectual is that they built themselves to be the best fundraisers, not the best fighters

Hey would be really cool if people stopped trying to murder American Jews.

Unbelievably horrified by this attack in Boulder. We don’t know the full story of the attacker, but no matter what it is, let me be clear: Senseless, antisemitic attacks do not help Palestinians, Jews, or Israelis. Committing terror attacks against people standing for hostages is disgusting.

This is why "you're right, it isn't what you voted for, because your values aren't shared by the Republican Party" is a much more effective message to help build a better America than "yes you did vote for this, you bad person" which fails to take advantage of this once-in-a-generation opportunity

Pretty wild to make your entire case about how immigrants are lawless freeloaders, but having to go to their workplaces and court hearings to arrest them.

It’s better than even odds that Trump shared this dumb post because he didn’t have his glasses on and he liked the photo and now the White House press secretary will have to be like “Experts agree that it’s quite possible cyborgs walk among us, no matter what the fake news claims.”

As a Lefty Jew, I am very intentional with how I speak about Israel. I am extremely anti-Netanyahu and anti-Likud. I recognize the human rights violations even non-Likud governments have committed. At the same time, Israel has a right to exist, the same way the United States does despite its actions

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

Against all odds, Joni Ernst has made it worse

The medical field is plagued by charlatans who invade our space with pseudoscience, but these grifters exist partially because of a few wish-washy docs who are unwilling to take firm stances in tough situations. Understanding how to do shared decision making is a skill that not everyone has.

HOLD UP. Are you telling us that the President of the United States is refusing regular briefings about threats to the country so his minions are creating a briefing TV show just for him? WHAT THE HELL? www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

The dumbest strategists alive take for granted that really good people have supported the Democratic Party despite their many, many failures to just exist on the just side of things. The Party may gain some voters, but it will pale in comparison to those (like me) who will simply walk away.

I don't think it's a coincidence that as the Democrats became the party of college-educated Americans they also became the party of incrementalism and poll-testing. Gift link: wapo.st/4kDw61g

People need to understand that there is no happy ending of them in prison even if the Dems sweep into power. Converting their wealth into an unsanctionable currency means they can go spend the rest of their lives in a Trump-friendly non-extradition country.

Owner of loudest peep machine wonders why there no peeping.

This meme is fantastic , and if you get it and have not read “The Song of Achilles” by Madeleine Miller, my gift to you is alerting you to its existence. It’s the Iliad re-written from the perspective of Patroclus and I cannot begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this book.
