I am often critical of legacy media, but we all owe a debt of gratitude to the 60 Minutes team, Bill Owens and now Wendy McMahon for standing up for what is right while CBS's owner prepares for total surrender and capitulation. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/19/b...

"Tapper and Thompson want to be the center of the conversation because it will help them sell books. But with daily assaults on our constitution by the current inhabitant of the White House, the rest of us have, or should have, more important things to focus on."

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

I have been working on stablecoin policy for five years. Every word Sen Warren says here is spot on. With this bill advancing, I feel like I’m watching a car crash in slow motion and there’s nothing I can do to stop it. It’s devastating

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito Argued Presidents Must Be Allowed to Commit Federal Crimes or Democracy as We Know It Will Be Over. Strange that no other President starting with Washington were held to the law of the Constitution & Democracy did just fine.

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

Fyi for those who are unemployed and need health insurance, get on new york state's essential plan. It's a state health insurance program using an obscure provision of obamacare to get obamacare subsidies directly. Since they are keyed to average subsidies but pay medicare rates, its quite good.

I don't usually endorse banning things, but Jake Tapper should be forever banned from uttering the word "book" on the air.

Rick Scott is on Fox News right now lecturing people about not having health care because they don't want to work. Fuck this guy. His business was fined by the federal government $1.7 billion for defrauding Medicare. Truly one of the biggest ghouls in American politics—which is saying something

The man on the left is Colin Kaepernick, the man on the right needs no introduction. They both have one thing in common, they sacrificed their careers to call out injustices suffered by marginalised people. In a world full of hatred, be more like Colin and Gary.

The Director of the FBI is openly lying to the American public about Canada being a major source of fentanyl. In the first three months of 2025, a grand total of 1.35 lbs of fentanyl was seized by border officials at our border with Canada — 0.06% of total seizures.

A woman is dead, kept alive as an incubator. Her family can’t grieve. This isn’t pro-life. It’s control. It’s cruelty. It’s stripping women of agency...even in death. If you support this, you’re complicit. Stand up. Speak out. Fight back. Or admit you’re okay with our girls having no rights.

Chris Murphy: "Why did Trump choose these 3 countries to go for his first major foreign trip? It's not because these are our most important allies or the most important countries in the world. It's because these are the 3 countries willing to pay him off ... this is the definition of corruption."
