Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

‘The police entered in civilian clothes, used Google Translate to decipher the titles of the English language books and confiscated box loads, picking out any with a Palestinian flag on the cover.’ Selma Dabbagh on the arrest of the Jersualem booksellers: www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2025/fe...

If you thought it wasn’t possible—well, here we are. Musk pulled $80 million in funding authorized by Congress straight from NYC’s bank account. The federal government took the funds and called it a “clawback” of taxpayer money. A lot of others would simply call it stealing.

"These are stories that are not just about death and pain, but there are stories about resistance, resilience, survival...healing." Tara Roberts talks about how she connected with her ancestry through her investigative work on vessels of the transatlantic slave trade.

‘The great children’s writers trusted children with irony and with sophisticated ideas: they trusted them to see in language a set, not of rules, but of possibilities.’ Katherine Rundell on children’s literature: www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

You can’t spell FELON without ELON.

Their latest batshit insane conspiracy theory is that libruhls are intentionally spreading bird flu to raise egg prices. This timeline is so fucked.

Can I get an amen?

I remain fascinated by the expanded child tax credit case study & the implications for leftist policymaking. People received REAL financial benefit from it. It drastically cut child poverty rates and it was rescinded without a real fight. I think about this at least once a week.

I know all of us who understand what is happening are experiencing mental health challenges because of that. The only message of comfort I can offer to this community of readers is this: you are correct. What you think is happening is really happening, and is just as concerning as you think it is.

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls

At the EPA, employees hired within the past year have been notified that “the agency reserves the right to terminate you immediately,” without justification. Reports suggest that demonstrating loyalty to the current administration’s agenda may improve the chances of retaining employment.

It took no time at all for Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s complaints leaks and a company memo threatening to fire divulgers to, in fact, leak to the media. “We try to be really open and then everything I say leaks,” Zuckerberg said during an internal conversation with the company. “It sucks.”

Hi, I’m God. Your reality is in a Groundhog Day loop of misery until you all decide to embrace a revolutionary progressive form of politics. Lmk

‘Sasson has let too many people leave their sticky fingerprints on her book; it would be better if it were less critical of “non-profits” and more self-reflective about the academy and its disciplining work.’ Susan Pedersen on ‘The Solidarity Economy’: www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Hi, I’m God. You all died in 2016. And yes, this is Hell.
