lol at Matt Yglesias forgetting to switch to his sock puppet account

‼️ Harvard rejects Trump administration demands amid threats of funding cuts. “The university will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights," www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

This is simultaneously the grossest and most accurate ad I’ve ever seen. #MAGABlowingYourTaxes

New records reveal that Marjorie Taylor Greene bought thousands of dollars in stock right before Trump’s tariff pause announcement caused markets to surge.

Do better NY dems.

Given his quote in here about talking to his attorney general “Pam” about this I guess I should repost this from this past weekend from @nikkimcr.bsky.social @andrewperez.bsky.social and me for @rollingstone.com : www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

So Trump SO WEAK he can’t stand up to a petty dictator. That’s what this is. He doesn’t want it painted this way but he’s afraid of El Salvador.

Oh.

SCOOP: Columbia student Mohsen Mahdawi went into an interview today hoping he would come out a U.S. citizen. Instead, ICE arrested him. theintercept.com/2025/04/14/i...

Never takes responsibility.

Almost certainly an anti-Semitic hate crime. And the President who is trying to tear up the American university system on the pretext of fighting anti-Semitism hasn't said a word.

WATCH: “The Chinese told the 3 largest 🇺🇸 soybean distributors in China they can no longer do business there.” Tennessee’s #1 cash crop. Another Trump trade war farmer bailout won’t be far behind.

“When you see these law firms not even fight for themselves when they are faced with illegal action, are you going to trust them to fight for you?” - former FTC chair Lina Khan (on law firm capitulation)

If you need any evidence more evidence that Anti-Semitism is just a pretext for the red-hat crowd, there is nary a peep today from Trump after Gov Shapiro's house was literally set on fire during Passover. But if you write a spicy op-ed in the campus paper, they WILL come for you!

It bugs the shit out of me every time this one Culligans commercial comes on Netflix because the VO is clearly AI.

The Trump administration announced Friday it would delay the implementation of a Biden-era rule meant to restrict coverage of unproven and costly bandages known as skin substitutes. The policy will be delayed until 2026, allowing companies to continue setting high prices for new products.

OMFG YOU DID NOT!

The American Astronomical Society is gravely concerned by the deep cuts to NASA science funding reported to be in the draft President’s Budget Request for Fiscal Year 2026. Read more here: aas.org/press/aas-st... and take action now: aas.org/urge-nasa-su...

If there was any doubt DOGE is a scam motivated purely by malice and cruelty, this report from WSJ should remove it. nymag.com/intelligence...

I have independently confirmed that President Obama’s White House portrait has indeed been replaced by this portrait of President Trump in the aftermath of the assassination attempt against him.

I would say more broadly that as policy you really shouldn’t allow government officials to accuse people of *terrorism* anonymously.

NEW on @npr.org: A DOGE staffer working in the Social Security Administration has been pushing questionable claims about noncitizens voting — apparently using data that court records suggest DOGE shouldn't have. More on the claims and the latest in DOGE access concerns:

JFC.

REPORTER: President Trump looks healthier than ever before. I'm sure everybody in this room could agree. Is he working out with Bobby Kennedy and is he eating less McDonald's? LEAVITT: I can confirm the president is in very good shape

I should not be surprised a person just willing to shoot her dog willy nilly and has shown a clear stripe of fascist racism has no regard for human life either. There is a scientific history of serial killers starting with animals and quite frankly, I’m getting serial killer vibes off them all.

ICYMI — Trump’s Secretary of Education Linda McMahon, folks 🤦🏼‍♀️

Over 650 known cases so far, and most have nothing to do with pro-Palestinian advocacy. The admin seems to be engaged in a breakneck effort to kick out every foreign student who has had even the most minor interaction with the police possible, including for TRAFFIC CITATIONS and JAYWALKING tickets.
