Wow

I think nowadays it feels like everyone has to be a wacky band of ragtag misfits who become a found family. That’s not always a bad thing. I’ve enjoyed that trope and even used it myself. But there *are* other human social arrangements which require cooperation.

Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome.

This woman is an astoundingly vile predator and its despicable if she gets anything out of this situation just because she’s of political use.

Her name was Diana. She was 23 years old and 7 months pregnant.

Russia murdered her today in an attack on the maternity hospital in Kamyanske.

What a deranged environment we have to in which the BBC is even asking this question.

NYC Mass Shooting Was Nearly Impossible to Prevent, Experts Say

Holy shit, they did it. They wrote the headline.

it was Catholic doctrine that Jews betrayed Christ and they changed it. it was Anglican doctrine that women weren't priests. faiths change doctrine all the time *even when the original texts* explicitly state something, because literal fundamentalism is not the positions of most faiths.

Absolute cowardice, and everyone involved in this decision should be immediately fired, then flogged with a book on the history of Neville Chamberlain

I hope Pope Leo continues to speak against starvation and barbarity in Gaza and U.S. bishops continue to defend those targeted for arrest and internment here. The Church has a unique, non-ideological voice on behalf of the dispossessed and displaced, like Jesus himself was.

Groyper Occupied Government

a simple reminder that Bret Stephens once wrote a column describing hatred of Israel as a “disease of the Arab mind” and got hired by the Times AFTER that

look, who are you going to believe, leading Israeli scholar of genocide Omer Bartov or a guy who couldn't even be bothered actually looking up the legal definitions of genocide

🧵The man on the left is Thomas Kramer

He's the other Epstein in Trump's life for over 35 yrs

He's the guy who developed South Beach, had a dungeon in his 5 Star Island mansion that drugged girls would wake up in, and his infamous sex lair bedroom w whips & teddy bears

Brace yourself for this read

Secretary of Homeland Security on racial profiling by ICE:
“That is not true… Don’t you dare ever say that again.”

Who the f*ck does Kristi Noem think she is, addressing a legitimate question like that? It is true. Tom Homan admitted it. Noem is a liar.

Trying to think of other revolutionary products that consumers repeatedly had to be tricked into paying for rather than ones that consumers loved and demanded

I know, I should be more sympathetic, but I can't deny it feels fitting, like an ancient fable, that one of the early investors in The Great Deceiver has been driven mad by it.

The entire leadership of the Catholic Church turning over from insane reactionaries to Woke Bishops has to be the most unexpected organizational turnaround in my lifetime

We are in new territory with Trump’s latest trade letter, threatening a 50% tariff on imports from Brazil starting Aug. 1
—The US runs a rare trade surplus with Brazil, so there’s no deficit to fix
—Trump says these duties are explicitly over political concerns, not economic ones

Trump announces 50% tariffs on Brazilian imports—the highest tariff rate in the letters he’s sent since the start of this month.

This is also the first letter that’s not a copy-paste of the letters sent to all other country, instead beginning with a pro-Bolsonaro rant.

Taking the "No Kings" idea and turning it from a historic "America rejected the idea of kings" into a "humanity must never again be ruled by tyrants and autocrats" movement more globally would be a nice framing.

Mind, might pose some diplomatic issues with...actual monarchies, but idk, fuck 'em.

I genuinely think this is where the "left natsec think tank" needs to start and operate from

Our enemies are both foreign and domestic and the failure to understand that is a rejection of reality

The Columbia hack is a much bigger deal than Mamdani’s college application A politically-motivated hack on a politically-vulnerable school is flying under the radar

personally, I think it is a problem if a Substack eugenicist has access to lists of millions of people by race www.theverge.com/analysis/703...

Most of labor and roughly half the Democratic officials in the city have endorsed Zohran.

I expect a certain segment of the hold-outs to come around in the end, virtually all the rest to remain neutral, and vanishingly few to endorse Adams or Cuomo.

It’s not party unity, but it’ll do.

We can deliver affordability and fight authoritarianism at the same time. I am eager to partner with state and federal leaders to do exactly that.

I almost can't believe that Elon Musk's AI called for the extermination of the Jewish people yesterday, and today not a single Congressional Democrat announced they were leaving his media network.

A party that often claims to act against antisemitism didn't do jack shit about straight up Nazism.

The new party system is literally “people who have a vague idea about how anything, anything at all works” versus “everyone else.”

My sense is that the 22 agencies that were combined into the new Department of Homeland Security in 2002 generally functioned better before the combination. Isn't it worth seriously considering whether it's time to do away with DHS and disperse its various functions back to DOJ, Treasury, etc?
