Centrists : “We can vote out fascism” Fascists:

I made my own currency out of Indian flat bread, but the bank wouldn't take it. I said that was naan cents. 🥁

the mainstream media line on major cities for several years has been that they are on the precipice of collapse due to Democratic mismanagement. now that a socialist has won an election, suddenly NYC is in great shape and about to be ruined.

The Free Press corner of the media elites are clearly out of touch. I suggest they do some soul searching after this loss. Go to some city diners. See how the Mamdani voting people really live.

Under grilling by Jon Ossoff, Russ Vought repeatedly refuses to admit that it was a mistake to fire the federal employees who oversaw the safety of the nuclear stockpile (a mistake the administration acknowledged when they had to scramble to hire them back)

"The tool allows users to upload an image of a police officer’s face to search over 9,000 LAPD headshots obtained via public record requests."

When you voted for a thing but now feel like that's not the thing you voted for even though the guy you voted for said he would do that thing and the thing is happening just like he promised.

VEASEY: You've credited the 12 steps in your recovery. What's step 4? RFK JR: Making a fearless inventory VEASEY: Of ourselves. Do you remember step 12? RFK JR: We try to help other addicts VEASEY: Does cutting off treatment from people still suffering align with step 4 or step 12?

My latest for the New York Times:

One of the SpaceX fan cams caught a crane collapse at Starbase in Texas. This kind of thing only happens from a completely unacceptable safety culture failure and I'd be shocked if there wasn't a death here

This is dark

No Tax on Tips Is a Deceptive Ploy; Congress Should Raise the Minimum Wage Instead Over the next 10 years, the Raise the Wage Act would have a total benefit to affected workers of $700 billion, compared with about $39 billion from “no tax on tips” in the House bill.

What a privilege to live on this beautiful, bounteous, perfect planet. We really ought to look after it better. Imagine being so complacent, or so desperate to fuck off to Mars, that you can't simply cherish what's staring you in the face.

6/21, Los Angeles: A neighborhood volunteer documenting ICE was stopped by agents in an unmarked car, surrounded, and threatened by masked agents while they filmed him on their phones.

A boomer senator saying that nobody should pay more than $100k to go to med school when the median cost at public university in 2025 is $286k really sums up the state of American politics right now. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

I am one of the millions of straight white American men who are being forced to walk on egg shells at work. In my case it’s because I work on the peeling line at the hard boiled egg factory, which was the only place I could find a job as a serial sexual harasser

Elon doesn’t like the answers Grok is giving about a disinfo specialist, so he says he will reprogram it 👇🏽 This is the propaganda machine they want to poison Memphis for? @MemphisHoller

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

John Fetterman, everybody

I know I keep saying this, but Trump's official White House photographer, Daniel Torok, is really bad at choosing which photos to publish. He always picks unflattering photos and I love it. This one of Hegseth almost feels Nixonian.

Mike Lee has genetics that fall into the absolute bottom of the gene pool. He comes from line of filth that includes a mass murderer.

The private equity firm that owns Instant Pot took out a loan for $450 million in 2021 and paid $345 million of that as a dividend to its investors and management team. Two years later Instant Pot declared bankruptcy.

Not only are they the snowflakes. They (Republicans) are all pedophiles too. Change my mind.

A top staffer to Sen. Tina Smith emailed Sen. Mike Lee’s top staffers on Monday about “how much additional pain you’ve caused on an unspeakably horrific weekend” Via Sam Stein on twitter

as of midnight today, it is 13,813 days until we meet the Vulcans. this message is from your (not always reliable) acting First Contact Day countdown to April 5, 2063. let us help one another to live long, prosper, and ensure that our spirit remains undiminished

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

The real enemy of this administration is cosmopolitanism. Whether in Los Angeles or South Africa, multiracial pluralistic democracy is a threat to them because it means their “us or them” model of the world is wrong. So they stir up trouble on purpose and gleefully lie.

This is what every great catch makes you say but I really feel like this is maybe the best catch of this kind that I've ever seen.

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.

Gamers: don't listen to the people trying to tell you that $80 isn't too much for a video game. It is too much. And they're doing it on purpose because they don't respect you or the gamer community. They're all laughing at you, and the only way to fight back is to "level up" by embracing communism

Yeah I guess LeBron putting up a 22.6 PER is pretty special, but it's not that impressive when you compare him to people rolling out of bed and firing off something like this at age 86.

Time to reshare my "Don Draper pitches Jared Leto" memes.

Earlier today ICE agents hit someone with a car and tear gassed a neighborhood, sparking several fires and disrupting businesses. Immigrants, by contrast, did not.

Don’t play into this dude’s game. You will never, ever oppose fascism in the perfectly appropriate way to please him. This is the same guy who made fun of pro-choice protesters because he thought they were overreacting since Roe would obviously never be overturned.

Surely all the outlets breathlessly posting about Kilmar being charged as a migrant smuggler and brought here to Tennessee will also post about this part…

note that this completely inverts the public justification for the deportation scheme. they claim they’re deporting criminals, but they deported Kilmar without knowledge of a crime, and now that they supposedly found one they’re bringing him BACK.

if i did this i would tell NO ONE

🔥MUST-WATCH: @profgalloway.com takes Elon apart “Somehow in 🇺🇸 we decided💰excuses depravity… his behavior his abhorrent. He’s not a role model. His legacy won’t be an EV or rockets— it’ll be unnecessary death, disease, disability of 🌎’s most vulnerable.” piers: “Wow.”

"Therefore the historical suppression of writers is the earliest harbinger of the steady peeling away of additional rights and liberties that will follow. The history of persecuted writers is as long as the history of literature itself."

incredible "blacks rule" moment here
