It's all Clown Show (with flamethrowers) 💯 percent of the time.

I have some screenshots from the bad place of MAGAs and anti-antis reacting to this story. They're outright dismissive that anything bad is happening and convinced they're on the morally correct side in not caring about the trafficked prisoners. They're evil people.

This scene is going to come up a lot this admin.

My story breaking this news exclusively was 7K+ words and had almost all of this in it, and more: www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Shout out to all the finance bros who didn’t give a shit about democracy, human rights, racism, homophobia, misogyny, the future of the planet or basic human decency and voted for the conman they thought was gonna be good for the economy. You guys are geniuses.

If this reporting is accurate -- I hope its garbled -- Elon and Theil want a PRIVATELY OWNED LASER WEAPON SATELLITE NETWORK?!?!?! Which could shoot down satellites as well as missiles. Which could presumably be turned "off" , or perhaps rented to a higher bidder? What. In. The. F@ck?

Welcome to The Jungle, baby You're gonna die -Upton Sinclair

My SecDef told me his aides keep getting fired due to leaks so I asked how many aides he has and he said he just goes to 4chan and gets a new aide afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding groypers to the FBI and then BigBalls started crying.

“My recent performance review was rife with DEI language.” 🤔

Wow it’s almost as if this was an entirely predictable outcome, you fools

This is funny, but the OP on Xitter was being sarcastic.

This is what those of us who work in tech ethics have spent the last decade desperately trying to get other Americans to realize before it’s too late:

pretty much everything that has come out about Elon Musk makes Walter Isaacson look like a really shitty biographer.

I don't know if this is possible, but I'd love for a defamation lawyer to walk a few reporters through asking questions to get her to commit unambiguous defamation.

wonder if shoshanna is still quoting this guy with "❤️❤️❤️ constitutional law bae ❤️❤️❤️" every sixteen seconds.

The largest paying crowd in the history of Wrigley Field was the day Jackie Robinson made his debut. Wrigley is the only park left Jackie played a game in. Mike Ryoko was a kid at that ballpark that day and he wrote about it. Take a minute and read this today. press.uchicago.edu/Misc/Chicago...

Judges hate this one trick...

I guess no apology from Randy Barnett is forthcoming. He’s telling a friend on X that he has the right to make fun of my appearance and laugh at a homophobic comment made at my expense because I co-authored a law review article that was too blistering a criticism of his NYT op-ed. I shit you not.

Let it be known: if the Government picks any of you up off the street, and dumps you in El Salvador, they will not bring you back. Constitutional rights of a U.S. citizen, you say? Pfft, this Government ignores the Supreme Court already.

Gonna do every newspaper in America a favor and write their headline. It reads: TRUMP DISCUSSES FOREIGN CONCENTRATION CAMPS FOR AMERICAN CITIZENS WITH BUKELE There you go. Don't even need to credit me.

The president told a Central American dictator to build five more massive slave labor camps to hold US citizens.

Wrote about Justin Martinez, who throws 100 MPH, but more importantly throws one of the lowest-spin high-velo splitters that has ever been tracked. What if a knuckleball was thrown 90 MPH? --> www.mlb.com/dbacks/news/...

These people can't simply be allowed to return to civilian life.

Holy crap what a shot from Rory after that dart from Justin

Here's the thing, Augusta is everything as beautiful it appears on tv. It's simply amazing.

Easily a top 10 skeet right here

I will never repost a post using “skeet”. Kill “skeet” now.

Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

Very cool (/s) that human trafficking is an official act that SCOTUS says a president can't be prosecuted for.

You only get played this easily if you (a) want to be, or (b) are incredibly, like earth-shatteringly, stupid. So, you know, flip a coin I guess?

Very important historical fact: The Nazis had a plan to deport millions of Jews to Madagascar. When it failed, they tried to at least deport 338,000 Jews from Germany proper to ghettos in Eastern Europe. When it became apparent the ghettos were full, they simply started killing all the Jews.

“The reporter from MyPillow asked the White House press secretary why the president looks so healthy and robust” is a true sentence that exists in our current reality.

The corrections won't stop until the understanding improves

I’ve seen enough: Throw the presumption of regularity in the trash. It’s over, folks.

Zebby Matthews looks ready for another chance in the Twins' rotation. Now it's just a matter of when, and how: www.nytimes.com/athletic/626...

Incredible scenes.
