The dem establishment really thinks they can get somewhere with this “scary Muslim” shit when normal NYCers knows halal cart is the best street food you can get and the Arab guy in the bodega will let you use your SNAP card for a sandwich when he’s not supposed to. It’s not gonna work

"They lit $20 million on fire, and all it did was boost Zohran's numbers. And in no small part because they corrupted their own souls by supporting a person they know to be a corrupt, abusive asshole. What are they gonna do now?" @bradlander.bsky.social, the man you are. (via @hellgatenyc.com)

This is unprecedented. The AMA and other medical professional societies speak as one on respiratory virus vaccines and in their own way, say the Trump Administration cannot be trusted with your health. www.ama-assn.org/delivering-c...

ICE is essentially disappearing people. “The Ice official told me they are under no obligation to tell the family or the attorneys of the detainees that they have been apprehended, or that they’ve been moved to another state, to another facility, or that they’ve been deported.”

Some insiders have theorized that the White House installed Fugate to oversee a pivot away from traditional counterterrorism and to steer resources toward MAGA-friendly sheriffs and border security projects before eventually shuttering operations. By @hannahallam.bsky.social‬

I don't think I've ever felt more like burning it all down than I have while witnessing the elite project to turn Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander into scary, incompetent monsters while turning an actual incompetent monster, Andrew Cuomo, into a merely complicated fellow who just made an oopsie.

Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

Statistically, at least 25 of these Marines aren't full US citizens and yet, they've been ordered to go spread freedom by watching American cops shoot, gas, beat & trample people, some who are immigrants & some who are people who care about people who are immigrants, with horses

The honest reason I don't have microtransactions/season pass/ads/100 DLCs/etc in Balatro isn't just about the ethics of those practices but because when I play other games that have those things it makes me want to put my computer in the dishwasher and set it to pots & pans

New — On X the Minneapolis PD said they were only present at the ICE raid protest "to ensure the crowd and the surrounding area remained safe," but photos shared directly with me show Police Chief Brian O'Hara personally escorting federal agents off Lake Street where protest took place.

The media initially portraying this as a spat between two neighbors instead of a married couple enduring terrifying ongoing harassment over their love and inherent traits should shame multiple outlets.

Hi this is leftover crab. He’s doing his part by eating his leftovers and also his roommates leftovers. Leftover crab doesn’t let any food go to waste. As a crab, that’s in his nature, but it could be your nature too.

"More importantly, it’s an insult to readers." @maris.bsky.social nails it. Practically every objectively boneheaded business decision publishers make is rooted in that fact: a disdain for readers. #cmonson lithub.com/you-see-gene...
