It is hard to tell the cynical pandering from the actions of idiotic true believers…

These kingly proclamations are something… who is writing these? He is not this scholarly.

Life imitates Art imitates Life imitates Art imitates Life

There is no universe in which Trump didn’t flood Los Angeles with ICE agents, a city famous for resistance and protest, just as Elon Musk publicly tied him to Epstein. Now he’s sending in the National Guard. This isn’t about immigration. It’s about distraction! krassencast.com/p/los-angele...

"So here's the plan -- we impose massive tariffs on the nations that sell us food." "Hmm." "But it's OK, because we just rely more on states like California that grow a lot of the same things." "Oh, I guess that ..." "And then we go to war with California."

Fucking nazis.

Nazis.

As promised, made this into a shirt. If you want it for next Saturday, I'd recommend express shipping, but I can't guarantee anything there. You are, of course, welcome to save the image and print it out yourself! tomtomorrow.threadless.com/designs/king...

"They see this as a long-term investment in a more ignorant population reliant on sources of information they can control."

New in PN: Adam Serwer on America's "new dark age" "They see this as a long-term investment in a more ignorant population reliant on sources of information they can control — a docile population that can be easily manipulated." — @adamserwer.bsky.social

People keep quoting this and saying "stop using AI!" But this is just a regular Google search. The issue is that Google now shows AI results first. Some people know to scroll past them or click the "Web" tab, but many do not.

We were spared the embarrassment.

The enemy of my enemy still did two Nazi salutes.

This dude. Right?

“Everyone is Paying Attention” Honestly, the middle child in me is so happy right now. But more importantly, help me send Lindsey home. www.glamour.com/story/dr-ann...

Until I see actions from one man harming the other, I'm writing off this "besties now enemies" storyline as kayfabe. I don't trust a word from either man. Behavior is the truth.

German Chancellor: "May I remind you that we are having June 6 tomorrow. This is the D-Day anniversary." Trump: "Not a pleasant day for you. That was not a great day." German Chancellor: "This was the liberation of my country from Nazi dictatorship."

Hegseth is a sad little boy.

Stephen King knows horror better than anyone.

"Needless to say, if Joe Biden posted anything close to that nuts, Sean Hannity and Jake Tapper would be roused from bed to anchor special coverage on their networks. But for Trump, this level of compete and utter batshittery is just another Saturday night."

Trump's a sundowning dementia sufferer, posting rage filled, incoherent and conspiratorial tweets deep into the night. Trump's angry rants are also announcements of U.S. government policy, making Trump's deteriorating medical condition an unreported national emergency, as @playtyperguy.com explains.

How about abso-fucking-lutely not ?

“Anyone working in his current administration who didn’t recognize these awful truths about him from the get-go is either a lunatic, an idiot, or both.”

Bwahahahahahahaha Lowly’s human car can’t even correct a cite properly! Why because he has nothing to cite to support his dumb ass and wishes you wouldn’t check them. He finds it annoying and doesn’t want to talk about it anymore. newrepublic.com/post/195941/...

"Will Trump also get the message that his favorite strongman isn’t that strong and that Volodymyr Zelensky actually does have some cards?"

Republicans *want* these crises. You and I might call these potential calamities. Republicans call them an essential part of the platform. https://trib.al/VEe4aFn

“We are currently experiencing longer than usual wait times.” 😂😃🙌

"If you’re among the vast sea of Americans who remain enthusiastically grateful for vaccines, the time for pushing back against Kennedy isn’t later, when he’ll likely be ratcheting up his program to 'reevaluate' longstanding pediatric vaccines."

For an addition $1M you get a red cap and gold lamé memecoin purse that looks like his asshole mouth.

"It's called 'literary sci-fi,' T — it's when you rewrite a Twilight Zone episode with a thesaurus and sell it to a bunch of fanooks who think 'Heinlein' is a cheap beer"

Carol Hui, from jail in Missouri in today's episode of The Daily Blast: "I just want to stay here with my children. I have a poor English. I just want to [be with] my family with my children, stay here in the U.S. for freedom and have [a] better life." https://trib.al/E1u0EtN

Anyone saying ‘DEI’ here in the UK is telling you very directly where their hate is imported from.

NASA > SPACEX

Whitehouse on Trump’s attacks on Leonard Leo: This whole thing is hysterical… The fact that Trump is furious with him right now may signal a dawning realization: that he actually might not have truly chosen his Supreme Court appointees.

I kinda remember there may be some amendment to the Constitution that might be relevant here. I vaguely recall it has kind of a low number and comes up high in the list

Few stories better capture modern policing than this one about a conspiracy of private corporate interests paying off-duty state troopers as part of a "shadow force" to cleanse downtown Nashville of homeless people using metal chains, cages, and violence.

FBI agents are now visiting Charlottesville’s public defenders *at their homes*. It’s naked intimidation of our justice system.

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.

Awkward way for Joni Ernst to find out she isn’t funny. Let’s stop sending people like Joni Ernst and Lindsey Graham to the Senate.

Is this why we’ve been seeing so many masked, unidentified ICE agents? As of May 29, 2025, ICE has 635 active agreements in 40 states—deputizing local cops to act as ICE. DEMS: Hold hearings. Sanctioned or not, we need answers. ☎️ Call your Senators and Reps now: (202) 224-3121

A lot of these people are just not telling the truth

Black his other eye. He doesn’t get to decide the questions. Hold this fascist piece of shit accountable. Make him own his misdeeds.
