pretty funny in retrospect that QAnon hinged on the idea that powerful elites at the highest levels of government were smart enough to talk in code when sending emails to each other about their despicable crimes

white house should suddenly disclose all trump health crises

"are you seriously asking a man with heart failure and dementia about emails from over a decade ago?"

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.

He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.

Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

they understand insurance. the entire premise of libertarian opposition to mandatory insurance is that they should not have to care about anyone else and be permitted to take risks. it's the same opposition to vaccination and taxation.

they are bad neighbors.

The jaws of death

imagine getting this worked up about someone disrespecting Rob Manfred. the guy is a law degree with a bad haircut, who gives a shit

VA Senate president pro tem absolutely rips MD Senate president for opposing redistricting.

Notably, VA Dems win massively *after* pushing for a new map.

And that's how it's supposed to work: There has to be an election after an amendment is proposed so voters can weigh in before it can proceed.

Already the Yankees have announced that they will now REQUIRE facial hair.

I love @hamiltonnolan.bsky.social's proposal from years ago that we should jack up politician salaries but also they get a 100% marginal tax rate on everything they make above those salaries after they're no longer in office.

The Onion: DHS: ‘Daycare Workers Have Walked Freely in This Country For Far Too Long’

I don't think it's even right to say the voting public doesn't care. I think the truth is a lot of voters may generally find trans identity moderately confusing but also *none of their business*.

on the other hand, they find an obsession with harming trans people - say it with me - deeply weird.

Guardian headline: Alex vs. ARod: the baseball legend turned 'recovering narcissist' tells all.

My narcissism recovery is going so well we made a TV show about it

Stunned onlookers were overheard asking “Did we die? Is this Hell?"

The electorate's 2025 post-Trump buyer's remorse is the most intense buyer's remorse since the electorate's 2017 post-Trump buyer's remorse.

The funniest reactions to the elections are the Republicans on Twitter saying stuff like “well after Jay Jones won, we are never taking scandals seriously again, we will nominate candidates who have no morals and say anything!!!” - like I’m just not sure anyone is going to notice the difference

Earle-Sears ran what felt like 12 billion ads about how much she hated trans kids and I didn’t hear a single pundit say she should stick to real issues that affect real people.

Oh how the tables have turned!

listen we may have lost our family business, made our kids miserable, had to live in a barn with goats and lost $50,000 to a local Russian slumlord, but at least we dont have to see gay people in public

Let’s be clear, most EBT users are white. The reason he’s specifically lying about “weaves” and we’ve seen so many AI fakes of Black women ranting about food stamps is they need to make BW the face EBT because they know many Americans don’t care if Black people suffer, and some actually wish for it.

Crosley Field in Cincinnati.

Did they say who is doing play by play for the all star game? Noah Eagle I would think since Tirico will be in Italy.

Please note what happened here. By challenging Trump to pause his terror raids for Halloween, Pritzker forced Kristi Noem to come out *for* continuing to traumatize kids. Polarizing these debates draws attention/forces MAGA depravity into the light.

a trans girl in college committed suicide days ago amid discrimination against her easily tied to this administration’s policies. npr and other media should cover that too

I'd need to know more about whether the minister shot in the face with a chemical agent from point-blank range before weighing in on it. Maybe it was good that it happened.

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

trans people just want to be able to live their lives and cis people are like "due to this we need to do mandatory genital inspections to children playing sports". im sorry but the problem is cis people
