It really takes a lot for me to say this, but the Graham tweet is genuinely a pretty offensive thing to say.

personally would like to see every store show what part of the price increase is due to tariffs bc if these tariffs ever come down, i need to see that price go right back down

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation. I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

They're arresting judges now

Kinda insane and shows how afraid the networks are of upsetting this administration that a guy who killed 7 people and wounded 48 with “47” literally tattooed on his face has all but been forgotten like there’s still not a very serious threat emanating from every pore of this pathetic cult

One of the wilder political things in recent history is that Project 2025 publicly released a 900 page document laying out their plans to roll back 100 years of human progress and then during the campaign Republicans just said "no we're not :)" and then they won and now they're doing it all.

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

This is some sick shit

She should be sued for defamation

Just so we’re clear, everybody calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist” or a “gang member” are lying, and they know they’re lying, and they repeat it for purposes of confusing people who don’t follow this stuff closely into accepting what was done to him.

Actual quote from the law-abiding student they’re deporting “for antisemitism” with no actual evidence of his antisemitism.

Don’t look up. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/09/c...

The "Boar on the Floor" scene from "Succession" dramatically underplayed the degree to which powerful people will debase themselves in order to curry favor with more powerful people.

You gotta laugh at the glorious leader’s commitment to the bit. He’ll play with tariffs as a form of insider trading, but he will NOT back down from his holy blood feud with Xi Jinping

Ahem

This isn't The Art of the Deal. It's insider trading with a bad comb-over. Step 1: Tank the Market, Scare the Non-Millionaires Step 2: Let the Aristocrats Feast Step 3: Flip, but say ‘Winning’ Step 4: Pretend None of This Ever Happened & Get Your Media Dregs To Do The Same Rinse, Enrich, Repeat.

What a summary of the anti-trans movement: March 23rd: female fencer competes in mixed-gender event, beating several male competitors, finishing 8th March 30th: same fencer films herself telling trans competitor “I am refusing to fence you, because I am a woman and you are a man,” collects $5000

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

If our democracy dies, this is its epitaph

Not sure what's worse, the reporter asking a softball "do you want to weigh in on that" [Signalgate] or the reporter immediately moving onto another topic when Trump demands, like a little baby, that she doesn't "bring that up again". Our media is failing us. Again. zeteo.com/subscribe

American companies quite literally lost one trillion dollars in a single day but on the other hand Dave from accounts receivable doesn't have to worry about using they/them pronouns when he sees Leslie in the break room

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

I’m sure every boomer that voted for trump is thrilled as they watch their retirement plunge

One of the dumbest things he’s said in the last 6 minutes

‘I expected to lose’ He’s so predictably pathetic and insecure.

Cory Booker ending his record-breaking speech on the Senate floor: “Let's get in good trouble." What a fantastic way to cap off his epic 25 hour and 5 minute speech. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

good. I hope the Eagles line up and run it 4 straight times to start their game against the Packers

COWARDS

Marine Le Pen has learned her lesson. by Susan Collins

we're already fucking miserable Amy, let us have something

Can't run, can't jump, *can* Eurostep around a defender and fling a 62-footer water polo style and hit nothing but net and then look bored

Seeing this live was breathtaking

@kylec.bsky.social it’s opening day - do the thing

Dear journalists: stop giving this administration the benefit of the doubt. Stop using old editorial standards and practices and norms. Assume that everything they say from the get-go is a lie because it always, always, is.

time to get emotionally involved on an intense but very temporary basis with basketball teams I know absolutely nothing about

There are a whole lot of federal workers in Virginia
