Can someone tell me why the NFL doesn’t move up their draft to maximize fan interest? The NBA is the best at keeping interest into the off-season/ summer. Giants fans shouldn’t have to wait 6 more weeks until the draft. Can’t read another mock draft. Once Mets start, I’m done looking at NFL news

Musk claims Social Security is a "gigantic magnet to attract illegal immigrants." In fact, immigrants here illegally do not collect Social Security. But they pay $25.7 billion a year into it, a recent study found, so these undocumented workers are actually subsidizing Americans.

Only in America could a Ketamine-infused South African oligarch call a navy captain, astronaut and sitting US senator "a traitor" for supporting our allies and standing up to Russia...

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

Justin Trudeau gave the exact kind of press conference today that we have been waiting for from our Democratic leaders. Watch it and learn from it. No gimmicks, no stunts, no script, no platitudes, no slogans, no games. Just straight talk, honesty, sincerity and facts.

Wrote up something about Techdirt's recent coverage, and why (whether we like it or not) we need to be a "democracy blog" now, rather than just a "tech" blog (not that we've ever been just a tech blog). This story is the story and it impacts everything else. www.techdirt.com/2025/03/04/w...

How about instead of a Dem response to tonight's speech Dems just use that airtime to replay this over and over. (Not joking.)

After all the idiotic presidential orders Grump made in his first term, shouldn’t Biden have spent the past four years stripping these authoritarian powers away from the presidency to make checks and balances equal again. Or was that not possible?

What kind of person would trade a 25-year old Luka? (Googles new owner.) Hahaha. Someone who donated 100 million to the Grump campaign? Ok. This move is so bonkers, it should turn Texas blue.

Who knew Biden could have just stormed into the White House, handed a friendly billionaire the keys to all the federal buildings, fired anyone who might have voted for Trump and imposed the Green New Deal, police, gun and voting reform and Roe v. Wade by force, without barely a peep from Congress.

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.

So only four teams haven't created accounts... but it looks like only three teams (@pirates.com @mets.com @royals.com) are active. Would be nice to get the 23 other teams that have accounts to start being active as we get ready for spring training...

At least we know one thing for certain about the next 4 years: Anything that happens in America that is good, Trump will take credit for it. Everything that happens which is bad, Trump will blame Biden or some other Democrat. I think we’ve got that one figured out.

I really, really don't want to do this, but let's do a bit (just a LITTLE BIT) of fact checking about what Zuck said on the Joe Rogan podcast, because this is something I not only followed closely, but also spent time talking to the actual people at Meta who dealt with this which WAS NOT ZUCK.

remarkable to me that far from seeming cool or masculine zuck seems like an even bigger loser — the kind of nerd who preemptively gives his lunch money to the bully and thanks him for the opportunity

I don't really use TikTok that much, but I find it fascinating that our government is on the verge of banning an app for national security reasons that are still unclear in the same week that Meta, the largest social media company, says it's now fine to hate LGBTQ people and call us mentally ill.

So, a "mandate" is when you don't even have enough votes in the House of Representatives to elect a Speaker? Do I have that right?

Bravo to Congresswoman Stacey Plaskett for speaking out about how the delegates representing the US Virgin Islands, DC, Guam, and Puerto Rico are unable to vote for Speaker of the House.

submitted 73 days ago • 275 comments

The sad reality is, the overwhelming majority of Americans don't know there's a voter for the Speaker going on, don't care & won't be able to name him after the vote. This is what happens in a country where civics education is no longer universal. Its absence lets darkness settle in over democracy.

I know I’ve caught the NYC Chrismakuh spirit, when I see a delivery guy speeding past me on an e-bike going the wrong way on a one-way street, and I shout “Watch it, you Cotton-Headed-Ninny-Muggins!!!
