never forget that mamdani’s campaign started to surge after calling tom homan a bitch to his face

And here it, the funnest election night clip I’ve ever seen: @errollouis.bsky.social asking the reporter at the Cuomo party if the revelers look like they’ve been working. Her answer SENT ME!!! 😅😂

How much longer will Zohran dodge questions about Jon Moxley's current run as AEW champion?

It's just nice to see a bastard eat shit once in a while. I'm not sure I could ever get sick of it but I'd like to find out

After resigning in disgrace, Cuomo attacked the women he harassed with vexatious, punitive legal filings meant to bankrupt and humiliate them, and threatened to sue them for defamation. He wanted them to shut up. At great personal risk, they didn’t.

EVERYONE SHUT UP ABOUT NEW YORK. REAL NEWS JUST DROPPED

HPD same as anyone else The cops aren't even useful as a last resort unless you're white and rich

Israel just killed *another 44 people* who were waiting for food at a "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" aid site. Meanwhile:

No license plates on ICE vehicles. No warrants. No badges shown. Nothing. Just rushing into a car wash and taking custody of 2 men who are working. Who are the criminals here?

i feel like fox news is biased a lot of the time

trump falsely claimed throughout his campaign that biden's fema couldn't afford to help north carolina hurricane victims because the money was spent on immigration

the pope should excommunicate vance, alito, thomas, and barrett and i’m not joking

It's impressive how SCOTUS managed to eviscerate the rule of law on two independent levels: 1) it rewards lawless disregard of court orders; and 2) makes Due Process optional. And, they did so without even explaining their ruling.

It is worth reminding every American today that the people who hid Anne Frank were outlaws. The people who sent her to die in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp were law-abiding citizens.

Since laws are apparently made up, when we put Trump, et. al, on trial for his numerous crimes against humanity, peace, and nature, we can go ahead and put 6 supreme court justices on trial for the human trafficking they just approved.

Nazi-ass Supreme Court

Hard not to believe that the current moment will not completely poison many people's ability to trust the US government for a long time. No-one really believes that the masked men dishing out the kind of violence will ever face any sort of accountability.

scrawny 18-year-old about to fall out of an army helicopter over tehran: this is so epic. this is totally sigma, right babe? AI e-girl operated by a balding intelligence officer in virginia: that's right baby, Iran is totally cringe

Boomers.

NYTimes has a long history of holding conservatives—including its paid columnists, like Stephens here—to absolutely no standards whatsoever, but still worth noting the complete lack of ethics required to not mention how 99.99% of Iran's uranium stockpile was due to Trump withdrawing from JCPOA.

And of course, these can all be traced back to the United States intervening in the first place - Noriega was *our guy* until he wasn’t - The US armed Saddam against Iran - There is no Iranian revolution without the US installing the Shah

No no the entire history of U.S. relations with Iran began in 1979 when they stormed our embassy because they are all religious fanatics who hate freedom

American elites are like "Well, the president is a dictator, and also clinically insane. I don't like that. But on the other hand, he is killing a lot of people, and you have to give him credit for that."

The John Fetterman who existed before the stroke is dead. This guy is just an execrable thug.

They have made the world living hell for no reason whatsoever. People will ask why this happened in a decade and there will be tremendous effort to make it more complicated than “they were evil, stupid, and bored”

There's no declaration of war, and no AUMF that covers this. Entering this war is wrong on the merits; we had a perfectly peaceful way to address Iran's nuclear program. It's also unlawful. A democratic republic should not be able to enter a war of choice on one man's say-so.

From Hunter S. Thompson’s ESPN page 2 column one week after 9/11.

Barron should be sent to the front lines if Trump wants this so fuckin badly

Yet another reminder that these are all editorial decisions. When the BBC decides not to show a documentary on Israel’s slaughter of Palestinian medics, that’s an editorial decision. It’s not journalism. Same for the NYT. They simply decide what they consider valuable. It’s not journalism.

How the NYT quoted Mahmoud Khalil's wife Noor Abdalla vs her full quote (reposted for side by side and clarity, credit to @naomilachance.bsky.social for the original post on Twitter)

That is a 2016 photo. This year, President Trump banned recognition -- official or personal -- of Pride month in federal offices, is firing employees who led informal LGBT affinity groups, and has banned trans folks from the military and seems gearing up to kick them out of civil service

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.
