this guy is locking people up because he claims they're antisemitic

"Rich people can't be corrupt" has to be the funniest thing anyone could ever assert. Who the fuck do you think does corruption? Your barista?

well it's not like Congress is supposed to oversee what the executive branch does

Is this guy gearing up for an independent run?

This is what the "throw-trans folks under the bus" crowd don't understand. We can LEAD on the issue instead of reading polls like tea leaves. We can -- and have a moral obligation to! -- convince people to be decent.

I'm sorry but I don't understand why people think this is a big deal. It's not like these are cancer researchers who think genocide is bad.

Y'all really need to think about what's happening here. These are people living legally in the United States. They are participating in protests, which every person here -- citizen or not -- has a right to do. The administration is punishing them solely for their protected speech. Citizens next.

I miss the illuminati scam DMs

SUPPORTING CHILDREN WHO ARE VICTIMS OF WAR IS NOT ANTISEMITIC. You know what is antisemitic? The president of these United States believing he has the power to decide who is a good Jew and who is a bad Jew.

I actually know who to blame for the Democrats' loss in the 2024 election, and it's... [shot by a mysterious stranger just out of focus wearing a trench coat and a fedora pulled down over their face]

I shouldn't laugh but this is so funny to me

RFK Jr 100% drinks his own piss. Not even a question.

Once again,

oh wow I wonder if this is something he could have done when the Trump admin condemned 2000 infants a day to a lifelong HIV infection or when he defied a unanimous Supreme Court decision ah well nevertheless

Just realized I got this wrong. It's not about the plane, it's about people in eating in his memecoins. Point stands, that's as much an obviously corrupt way to funnel money directly into Trump's pockets.

I still can't believe that motherfucker said accepting a $400 million plane for his personal use is not enough to use the word "corruption." Like that is WILD. Just a wild thing to say.

You know what sucks about this? I love rock creek park, and it would be nice to have an HHS secretary committed to cleaning it up instead of using it (and his grandchildren) to try to disprove germ theory.

DO NOT TALK TO THE FUCKIN COPS MY GOD

maybe qatar could replace all the jets we keep losing

don't worry there's no impropriety or corruption here, my acquaintance count dracula has merely given me this beautiful golden racecar as a friendly gift

I know @ericlipton.nytimes.com is going to take these sorts of replies as proof that he's right and the rest of us are too "biased" to understand his journalistic responsibility, but he's just wrong about what constitutes corruption.

WHAT DO WE WANT A RETURN TO THE STATUS QUO WHEN DO WE WANT IT WHENEVER IT'S CONVENIENT, NO RUSH

Let's be clear: Republicans don't want more 'parents' at home. They want more *women* at home. If you think this isn't about eradicating women from the public sphere, you haven't been paying attention
