I think the way to turn this administration’s tanking polls around is to have this creep talk about his plans for our children as much as possible.

Everything about this scene -- the obsequious lickspittle kissing Trump's ass, the wildly optimistic Fox News chyron, even the stupid little hats promoting Trump's saddest achievement of the first hundred days -- feels like a Make a Wish event for a dying presidency.

It’s beyond hilarious that one of Pope Francis’s last official acts was sending a trusted associate to scold JD Vance for his absolute inhumanity. That’s getting lost in the whole meeting and then dying part but let’s honor a true hater for his service.

With these posts, they’ve made it essentially inarguable that they’re deliberately defying the Supreme Court.

the american electoral system is basically 500,000 information-resistant people across a handful of states taking a guess and then going "haha! oops!" every two years. this process takes 18 months and costs four trillion dollars every time

Just to follow up on what @sarahebond.bsky.social said, the idea that in 50BC Rome failed to solve a population decline and that led to the collapse of their civilization is so unfathomably historically illiterate it's hard to even know where to begin

my humble opinion is that if your job is to manage risk and make big decisions about markets and you screw up your judgement this badly you should be disqualified from ever managing money and also shunned completely from speaking on the subject in public again

Salute to all of the geniuses in Silicon Valley, on Wall Street, and in media c-suites who convinced themselves that what the USA needed was an autocrat CEO — and that Donald Trump was that executive. Brilliant, sirs. Just brilliant.

Cannot be emphasized enough: Barack Obama successfully negotiated a deal to stop Iran's nuclear program. Trump, having inherited a vastly improved situation with Iran, deliberately tore it up. The fact that they are now on the verge of having nuclear weapons is entirely his fault.

Not gonna pretend like I know anything about Carney’s politics because I don’t, but I watched his speech yesterday and he essentially told Trump to fuck off and now Trump’s speaking about him with a modicum of respect. I feel like there’s a lesson in there somewhere.

I would like the people saying this shit to at least reckon with the idea that Rs are currently worried about losing a district they won by 30! To the point they are making Stefanik stay in here +20 district rather than become ambassador to the U.N. Bunch of sad sack loser nonsense.

Always look to see what the tech bros want for their own kids: small class sizes with human teachers, human tutors with expert content knowledge, cell phone restrictions in classrooms, high per pupil spending, the arts and humanities--and much more they say is too costly for public schools.
