Hard to believe they’re talking about the same event.

The reason you're having trouble concentrating if you are here in the US is because we're basically being chased around by serial killers and being asked to disregard the fact.

House Republicans smuggled this👇attack on the federal judiciary into their reconciliation bill. Courts rarely require plaintiffs to post security, so this provision, if passed into law, would render a vast number of existing judgments—including Boasberg's contempt order—effectively unenforceable.

Casten: The oil and gas sector don't like competition for the same reason you don't like D.E.I. Because mediocre folks are scared about a meritocracies.

McGovern: My state of Massachusetts funds states like Indiana where the gentlelady is from. We get back less than we give. And so how dare she or anybody else vote to steal our tax money and give it to billionaires?

AOC: When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this

how much a month to avoid having to hear about AI all the fuckin time google

the "don't talk to me" theory of venture capital: silicon valley money flows into whatever business promises to remove any human interaction- a cab driver, a waiter, a delivery driver, now a personal secretary- whom a rich guy might be forced to acknowledge as a person

WARREN: Can POTUS legally tell the IRS to change someone's nonprofit status? BILLY LONG: I'm not able to answer WARREN: You can't read these words and tell me what those words say?! LONG: I can read the statute and I did WARREN: Then tell me what they mean!

Welp. Sen. Schiff has sold out his constituents in California and the party in general. This is so gross.

This is a clear statement by CNN that a man who incited an insurrection against America 4 years ago and told 31,000 lies in his first term still has credibility People should be fired for this sort of thing, as it's these journalistic atrocities—all *dangerously* counterfactual—driving readers away

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

It is truly amazing how little scrutiny Stephen Miller gets—not because he’s an architect of Trumpism; that gives him too much credit. But because he is openly the most bigoted and malicious person there and he behaves and sounds like a petulant child.

i am fascinated by the editorial choice to give the last word to a disbarred charlatan pushing a discredited constitutional theory www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/u...

Alsobrooks to RFK Jr: "You are the wrong person for this job. And you had in this hearing today the unmitigated gall to say at the beginning of your testimony that China is ahead of the United States in healthcare because China does not have DEI."

Let’s break this down—because the gaslighting is wild: 📌Oct 2022 – Biden signs EO to cut drug prices 📌Jan 2025 – Trump takes office and kills Biden’s EO to cut drug prices 📌May 2025 – Trump signs his own EO to lower drug prices Trump canceled Biden’s plan then brought it back w/his name on it.

This is a shattering episode.

Spain, you could do the funniest thing right now...

AOC: If anyone is breaking the law in this situation, it’s not members of Congress — it’s DHS. It’s people like Tom Homan and Secretary Kristi Noem. You lay a finger on Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the Representatives that were there… we’re going to have a problem.

1) USPS did not lose $3.3b. It provided a service that cost $3.3b. *The Pentagon* loses you money, however, every time it accidentally yeets a fighter jet off the deck of a carrier

LOT?! WE DON’T NEED NO STICKING LOT!

Your daily reminder that the U.S. Postal SERVICE is a service that is designed to benefit taxpayers and not a business that should be expected to turn a profit.

Poisoning the air of a Black community for a fucking chatbot.

Pope Leo XIV has laid out the vision of his papacy, and he has identified artificial intelligence as one of the most critical matters facing humanity.

great job Gavin

"What did they do?" -- Trump has no idea what he's signing and has to have it explained to him

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

I like telling authoritarians where to shove it in multiple languages

Warnock: Don’t lecture to me about meritocracy while I witness you nominate the most unfit unqualified people we’ve ever seen. You cannot lecture me about merit while nominating Pete Hegseth…

The problem with responding to Dem losses in 2024 by "meeting voters where they are" is that most pivotal group of voters in 2024 have absolutely no idea where they are

Warnock: Georgia officials said they were sorry but their hands were tied, you can’t vote the first weekend of the runoff after the holiday so I decided to untie them, I sued them. And I won… They appealed asking for emergency relief. Emergency relief from what? People voting?

What the actual actual actual fuck. #PrimaryNewsom
