Just 10 members of Congress have even dared to call Israel's mass murder in Gaza a genocide. Meanwhile, they're straight up murdering journalists. The gulf between what's happening and what most of our leaders will acknowledge is so remarkably vast.

Jesus Christ.

Andrew was married to Bobby Kennedy’s sister. His 3 children are Bobby’s nieces.

His brother Chris Cuomo interviewed Bobby Kennedy a few weeks ago but neither one of them mentioned they’d been related to each other by marriage for 15 years

It’s a big club and we’re not in it.

This is the wealthiest nation in history.

Instead of making sure everyone has food, shelter, & healthcare, WE ARE FLYING A CHILD RAPIST WHO WE PAY TO HIS GOLF COURSE WITH A COTERIE OF BODYGUARDS WHO WE ALSO PAY.
And we let him take bribes.

i thought the line was that this was a democrat hoax?

a leading possibility:

Zohran should propose “Cuomo’s Law”, a law that bars sex offenders from being mayor of New York City

Bingo.

it's always been funny how the rich need to be incentivized but the working class needs to be disciplined

Study what you love: B.A. anthropology. (Many courses in literature (English & French etc; no math or engineering.) M.S. agricultural economics (thesis on west African farming systems). 40-year career in computer industry in & around Silicon Valley. Learned abt hardware & software on the job.

I sometimes get asked "what should I/my child study at university to ensure they get a good job?" My answer is always "study something you love and then you'll be able to talk yourself into a job later." I have seen this argument supported more often than refuted.

Impactivize: Shareholders of 30 Companies Worth $13 Trillion Vote Overwhelmingly to Defeat Anti-DEI Proposals EUGENE, Ore., July 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholders of 30 major corporations, collectively valued at more than $13 trillion, have voted overwhelmingly to reject anti-DEI proposals during 2025 prox...

🚨 Victor Davis Hanson is a 71 year-old white man who wrote an oped yesterday attacking DEI. He wrote: "Americans began talking in Marxist binaries."

But this is capitalism, not Marxism:

$13 trillion worth of market cap says DEI is a strategic imperative.

You mean it isn't completed yet? Golly!

Same with vaccines and other things, allowing people to label themselves "skeptics" implies there is some ambiguity or wiggle room on that data. If they don't like science they're deniers, not well meaning people who just have questions.

Big words from a small man.

MAGA is full of heartless, ignorant, cruel & narcissistic monsters.

RFK's decision to shut down mRNA contracts will get people killed as we lose our ability to quickly defend against new pandemics. But it appears that the anti-vax and anti-mRNA atmosphere to which he has been the major contributor got one police officer killed just this past week. He's a disgrace.

The tech bros want to kill two birds with one stone: relentlessly push teachers into using AI by having them do the work of tech developers for free to create the tools they will use.

People still are tragically underestimating what this is doing to our societies.
The rich got richer and richer, super rich, mega rich. They are dictating policies.
So it gets worse — and they get richer. It tears our societies apart.

#BREAKING | CNN’s Matthew Chance joins the Jordanian air force in a flight over Gaza and gets an aerial view of the widespread destruction caused by the Israeli military after almost two years of genocide war.

This is despite Israeli limitations on recording Gaza

"If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face — forever." (George Orwell, '1984'. Now imagine Buckley as Winston Smith's interrogator.)

Secret trial, huh

The FBI director whose prior career was “podcast guest with an enemies list” thinks other people are engaged in “political weaponization”

ice is a punchline

ice’s illegitimacy grows with every passing day

Excellent! Please let me hear from you after you've read the whole thing. Even if you're not crazy about it. (Being compared to Crichton is always OK with me. I'm not a big fan of his prose; he wasn't what I would call a great novelist. But goddamn, he was a storyteller. No arguing that.)

Noon eleven years ago, Mike Brown was murdered in Ferguson by police officer Darren Wilson. His family has yet to receive justice.

Rest In Power #mikebrown

A video arguing that women shouldn’t be able to vote was just shared by Trump’s Secretary of Defense, the guy in charge of our whole military.

And Democratic Party leaders still can’t stand up to this administration?! Our rights are on the line and all our party leaders offer us is silence.

there are so many open layups and somehow dems can’t make them. republicans are literally pulling cancer treatment from children and they can’t message on that??? like what the fuck are we doing here
