i almost can’t read this it makes me so angry. delusional grifters with purity fetishes and eugenic worldviews have brought pain, suffering and death to children www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/u...

A day after President Trump said Iran’s nuclear program was “obliterated,” officials said they didn’t know the fate of Iran’s uranium stockpile.

I love how he's been largely radio silent on the whole fall of America thing, but managed to pop his head out of hiding to endorse a sexual predator.

How @theatlantic.com contributed to right wing disinformation agents weaponizing Covid doubt to gain power and undermine public health.

The only, and I mean only, thing I like about Trump is how regularly he undercuts his lickspittle underlings’ public statements of policy, forcing them to do rhetorical cartwheels until his whims change again.

you love to see it

It's been a privilege to serve as an expert on NIH HIV guidelines panel alongside many dedicated colleagues. We do this work pro bono because it matters. This resource ensures a high level of care for people with HIV. Another short sighted pro disease move. www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

you’ll never lose betting against the ability of a pro-war pundit to remember past yesterday

Well put by @mmasnick.bsky.social. www.techdirt.com/2025/06/20/c...

House Republicans have proposed a 50% cut to the Government Accountability Office and a 12% cut to the Library of Congress in a bill to be marked-up tomorrow. This would destroy Congress's non-partisan expert agencies and blow up the Legislative branch.

nary an original thought between any of them. and all of this—all of it—to support a genocidal government

“family members identified the victim as Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all U.S. Marines” ktla.com/news/local-n...

you know you gotta commend them, i don't think anyone else has ever been able to write a satire of the bush years that's this cutting

The kind of timeline synchronicity you wait your whole life for.

It’s called the Harvard Kennedy School

As a friend of mine said, Hillary has the opportunity to do the funniest thing of all time here

The “root cause” of measles is the measles virus. You don’t need to treat what no one contracts. That should be embarrassingly obvious.

the amount of contempt vance has for everyone he's talking to — such that he'll say obvious nonsense as if he's fooling you — is genuinely remarkable

Rewatched terminator 2 last night. Fun movie about AI leading to nuclear war and how the easiest way to kill someone is to dress up like a cop. Can't say its themes resonate today.

Happy birthday to the prophetess Octavia Butler. We live in the times she foretold. From her notebooks.

there is a saying in India used to mock bald men "the razor was too good" the implication is it was so sharp it also sliced off the brain with the hair and this guy is proof it was based on real world evidence

AND: Hearing on what comes next set for Wednesday — and Abrego Garcia is to be present. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Democrats are racking their brains trying to find the "Joe Rogan of the left" while doing everything they can to defeat people like Zohran Mamdani and AOC, who actually possess the skills they're so desperately looking for.

Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization? Rubio: That’s irrelevant Host: No, that's a key point Rubio: No it’s not… Forget about intelligence

Just circling back, any updates on this?

Hahahahahahaha.

The concept of sexual harassment has endorsed Andrew Cuomo for Mayor.

This guy gets a Thomas clerkship in 3, 2, 1…

It is pretty incredible to witness them cloud seeding "if a terrorism happens it's Biden's fault" in real time

@ichotiner.bsky.social spoke to James M. Acton, the chair and co-director of the Nuclear Policy Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, about the consequences of Donald Trump’s attack on Iran. nyer.cm/jgPQZpt

A thing most USians don't know & really should before expressing any opinion on Iran: The 1953 coup that brought the Shah to power "was carried out under CIA direction as an act of US foreign policy, conceived & approved at the highest levels of govt." Iran still feels some kinda way about it. 🎁🔗

This is absolutely insane shit to write down and publish. The left scared her. This might beat allll the other NYT headlines. Truly spectacular. The GOP banned abortion, the GOP said they would prosecute doctors providing abortions, the 6 Republican appointed SCOTUS judges overturned Roe.

I talk to a ton of J6ers and if a chunk of them had jobs with ICE I’d have some idea. Mostly they can’t stop crying about being unemployable.

Iran’s foreign minister has arrived in Moscow:

We obtained lists of alleged gang members used by Venezuelan law enforcement and Interpol. Those lists include some 1,400 names. None of the names of the 238 Venezuelan deportees matched those on the lists.

Got a ConEd alert telling me to use less energy during the heat wave and this is all I can think about.

Also possible that they're manufacturing ever-larger crises in hopes of clinging to power next year

He said that his having been freed in no way represented justice. “I’m free,” he said, “but those who made me go through hell are still free outside and actually emboldened.” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/n...

Five things to remember about war:

CNN, CBS, and Bloomberg are now reporting that White House officials say that Tulsi Gabbard was in the Situation Room tonight, which means we're no closer to finding out whether Tulsi Gabbard was in the Situation Room tonight
