Some of us still remember what this dude did to the Bonwit Teller friezes. Maybe if he had ever faced a consequence in his life we wouldn't be here now
Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/
Another mystery: By 2013 concerns over Epstein's criminal activity boiled over at JPMC. Top execs finally agreed to ditch him as a client. They then waited SIX YEARS to flag his suspicious transactions to FinCEN, even though federal law requires they be flagged right away.
obama ramped up the use of drone strikes (10x more than bush!) and deported a record number of immigrants. he helped maintain and expand the systems trump is now using to do his crimes

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.
my woke take is that entirely too many people feel entitled to the benefits of a social contract while not feeling bound by the responsibilities of said contract
The Diplomat is really fun, but it's ridiculous. I can't be the only one who thinks that Kate, in particular, is childish and bad at her job. Although most of them are bad at their jobs
A lot of centrist commentators who genuinely got worked up about the unforgivably insulting nature of "cling to guns and religion" or "basket of deplorables" are weirdly silent about Trump portraying himself as literally shitting on American cities
The average amount of SNAP received is about $173. Which means you could fund nearly a million families for a month if we just didn't buy her two private jets to fly around and do racist pressers. Which by the way, seems excessive.
Yesterday's No Kings protests were apparently the largest since the first Earth Day in 1970
The NYT covered that story with a six column headline across the top of the paper and two full pages inside
Today, two small pics below the fold and a story on page A23
They constantly let America down
Don’t let the frogwater that’s boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another country’s citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. That’s freakish.
here is my favorite sign from today
We got the Lucha contingency out here
#NoKings Cincinnati
#NoKings Miami!
I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

Breaking on MSNBC: Two top criminal lawyers in the Eastern District of Virginia have been fired: Elizabeth Yusi, the criminal chief, and her deputy Kristin Bird. Both had been involved with Letitia James case and were skeptical of it.
Damn! Every clip from last night’s debate is Mamdani wiping the floor with Cuomo.
This makes sense coming from the guy whose son monitors his porn consumption

wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...
Truly embarrassing
If anyone's wondering how this is possible, the answer is these strike teams are moving terrifyingly fast. Grab first, ask questions later. We were about 8-15 minutes behind them today for several hours. They're jumping out of vans, chasing people across lawns, taking them from bus stops, etc
You're writing this down right? Good. As I was saying my car sucked so bad my wife left me. Yes I can spell my name for you.

huh, wonder what this was about
