See how this works?

this is journalism

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

me watching my lil reality tv shows and then returning to reality immediately 😭

Someone hacked the crosswalk audio is Palo Alto California. Elon Musk & Zuckerberg were the target. Funny, unless you're hearing impaired. I still laughed

Season two starts tonight, people! #TheValley

“Many people don’t realize how high the American quality of life is because of the competent & stable enforcement of regulations, &if that goes away a lot of lives are at risk,” said Steve Cicala… “This affects airplane safety, baby formula safety, the safety of meat, vegetables and packaged foods…”

So this is very bad. The government does not have the staff to keep its networks & data secure or functional. As a result, the HHS won’t be able to protect sensitive data or carry out its work. Imagine the US without research, emergency response, prevention, regulating medicines, health insurance…

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year — enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare. 👆🏻 This is the crime wave we should be talking more about.

there's so many layers of fraud and abuse in this story that "someone might have been trying to log into the NLRB's systems with a valid Doge username and password from russia" doesn't even make it into the first 5,000 words

Don’t shut down Social Security offices to open concentration camps shouldn’t be the kind of thing you have to say out loud. But you absolutely have to tell all of you members of Congress this as often as you can stand it. (202) 224-3121 )

Everything is breathtakingly stupid

"A precedent has been set. Every international student in America today must accept that they may be abducted, detained and deported for attending a protest or expressing a view that upsets the White House or its allies." — #AJOpinion by @somdeepsen.bsky.social ⤵️

Repeat after me: these budget cuts are theft. Our elected officials are stealing from us. They work for us, and they are breaking what we hired them to protect.

This fucking criminal bastard just held the world upside down by its feet just to jingle out some money for himself. The billionaires are back to kissing his feet.

I refuse to give Trump any credit for alleged 4D chess moves. He is an idiot. He's been bankrupted 6 times. He doesn't understand how tariffs work. The world didn't concede or bend the knee. They started dumping US bonds. He folded & rich got richer buying the dip and following shock doctrine.

This is bad. Dude has ties to Fuentes, Proud Boys, Patriot Prayer, and 1st Amendment Praetorian. Basically a list of the groups that got into the most street fights with those who opposed Trump in his first term.

Never fails

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

wow the three month orgy of breaking long-standing agreements, abrogating contracts and shredding the constitution has damaged the full faith and credit of the united states that the entire global financial system rests on? might've been a bigger deal that Tim Walz' national guard retirement idk

Wonder Showzen knew what was coming

Every now and then they still manage to say something that sticks out as exceptionally deranged, even against our current general background noise of perpetual derangement.

The American soy bean farmers will go bankrupt with the Chinese retaliatory tariffs. My guess is that Congress will bail the farmers out. Why is it when we bail farmers out it’s an investment but when we give children free lunch it’s “welfare”?

Every damned word of this 4-graf brief, except “By WSJ Staff,” should scare the bejeesus out of you this morning. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...
