In a bid to curry favor, Pete Hegseth just announced the Navy's newest ship, the USS Donald J. Trump.

None of this is "policy." It's McDonald's-induced gas pain from a Big Mac-bloated gut.

I've watched it a hundred times and it's STILL funny. youtu.be/UPOrBnqScLY?...

After an extraordinary post-midnight #SCOTUS order, focus intensifies on whether the court can tame Trump. www.npr.org/2025/04/18/n...

It’s always the dumbest of fucks that think they know everything.

I've said many times they would legalize slavery if they thought they could get away with it. And here we are.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social knows what's going on. Is anyone listening? Speak up!

BREAKING: Women may no longer be able to vote if their birth certificates don't match married names. You know in The Handmaid's Tale when Gilead suddenly eliminates women's bank accounts in one fell swoop? That's what Republicans in Congress are doing to women's voting rights.

Again, you can tell who the Good Guys are because they’re the ones getting caught sneaking into elementary schools, lying that the kids’ parents sent them. bsky.app/profile/prem...

congratulations Campus Free Speechers, your guy made future thought crime a thing

If the administration can exert federal oversight over Columbia, then any university is at risk. A collective response is needed. www.wsj.com/us-news/educ...

Desi Lydic taps in former Daily Show correspondent Olivia Munn to break down Trump’s tariff mania

All at once.

It's not just his delusion that tariffs will bring manufacturing jobs back. It's the paranoia, and the sense that trade is somehow rigged. @saletan.bsky.social on Trump's big tariff lie:

Media challenge: try writing headlines without using the word "antisemitism". Stop using Trump's framing for his authoritarian actions. "Trump administration now monitoring immigrant social media" would be shorter and more accurate, since no-one really believes this is about anti-semitism.

2020. Today.

Definitely not price gouging. And domestic prices won't soar as imports do. Right? Right?

@theweek.com Bullshit Bill Ackerman, this is EXACTLY what you voted for.

For the record: Some of us knew how bad it would be. Lots of us knew. It was right there. In front of their eyes. Every day. And we tried to warn them. Over and over and over and over again. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

This was supposed to be a hater's guide to the men's Final Four — except one of those four team's is Duke. Which means the Blue Devils will be the only team mentioned here. http://dlvr.it/TJyRHQ

California Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas (D-Salinas): "there are currently more kids with measles in Texas than there are transgender athletes in the NCAA. That's the epidemic we should all be worried about."

There are trans Americans right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am. We are. We will.

BREAKING - WilmerHale BEATS Trump, wins restraining order Order stops Trump from blocking Wilmer attys from gov buildings — and forcing gov agencies to strip contracts from Wilmer clients — to punish them for hiring Robert Mueller Trump keeps LOSING almost every court decision

“‘However, it has become clear that truth and transparency are not desired by the Secretary, but rather he wishes subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies,’ Marks wrote.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

For years conservatives and some liberals complained incessantly about ‘cancel culture’ and the lack of ‘free speech’ on campuses. None of that stuff comes even close to what the right is now doing in power, in terms of the open bullying and pressuring of colleges and censoring of curricula.

The clock is ticking on Trump & Republicans’ “big, beautiful bill” to extend the 2017 tax cuts. The urgency: GOP worries that Trump’s tariffs — taxes on consumers to pay for imports — could push the US into a recession. In today’s @washingtonpost.com: www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
