for my entire life i have simply never understood how anyone reading this can be convinced this is an antisemitic statement

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

President Xi, PLEASE

Which way western man?

We found more than $75 billion in annual savings for Musk and DOGE in the Department of Defense. interc.pt/41DCeA5

Schumer and Jeffries are veteran losers and anyone not willing to say so should not be taken seriously

We’re like 10 seconds to midnight on them turning El Capitan into a strip mine

So close!!!

As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

Boy I’d sure love for her to start

Just saw a combination Disney’s Snow White and Allegra (like the allergy medicine) ad

disturbing uptick in "we post tweets and talk about them." servile behavior tbh. bluesky is not the Greek chorus for the main character action of twitter, that's loser thinking, have some pride. twitter is dead. post bangers. thank you

U.S. Attorneys are not the President’s lawyers. They are the United States’ lawyers. You didn’t pledge an oath to a President, you pledged it to the constitution. This statement alone is reason enough to resign.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

fact check: since congestion pricing started, subway crime is down 36%.

i will become a total shill for whichever politician decides to become the joe mccarthy of rooting out silicon valley ideology and influence

Is this a mating ritual?

What an absolutely ontologically evil company

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

Highlight of the year so far is Cooper DeJean pick 6

U.S. military Ospreys rehearse Super Bowl flyover. So glad DOGE is cutting government waste!

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that *actual racism and discrimination* divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist

USAID was investigating Elon Musk’s Starlink contracts in Ukraine 👀 Also, can we agree that it's pronounced U-S Aid and not U-S-A-I-D?

*taps the sign*

A reminder that on this site folks may be aware that Trump got basically nothing new or substantive from Mexico or Canada but over on the other place, and out in parts of the real world, the GOP are successfully and ruthlessly spinning these as wins. They are messaging masters, Dems aren’t. Sorry 🤷🏽‍♂️

FYI, Minnesotans: if you are trying to leave a message for Sen. Klobuchar and you discovered that her DC mailbox is full, the Minnesotan one is not. #MNpol

Normalizing spelling out what people actually mean when they cite DEI rather than letting them hide behind the safe cover of a euphemism that's been sapped of meaning

OpenAI right now

Due to severe budget cuts, Louisville, KY (metro pop: 1.35 million) will be served by fewer than 100 city buses. In contrast, Bordeaux (metro pop 820,000) has 400 buses and 130 trams, along with a main train station that serves 7 high-speed rail lines and 14 regional train lines.

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

I’m taking the over on 5 democrats voting to confirm him. I’d be so happy to lose that bet

Wow I’d actually rather just have Mark Levin call me an anchor baby

Consuming the water requirements of a small town because you’re too lazy to book your own restaurant reservation is crazy work

I feel like at some point the media needs to stop covering these announcements without actually using them. Can it actually do these things? has anyone seen them do it? How many times did it take to get it right?

I say this with nothing but deep pain and remorse: Louisiana is fucked
