Imagine this in Russian on Russian state TV

The word for what Jesse Watters is describing here is un-American. A shredding of the constitution.

There nothing funny about it.

Matthew Yglesias is as stupid as a rock. Analysis of his work is pointless.

We canโ€™t let weird stuff like the actual, rock bottom crime rates affect our number one industry, which is the imaginary crime industrial
complex

Maybe we should have the FBI and DHS on this instead of rounding up construction workers and food cart vendors

During the egg shortage every grocery store was perfectly comfortable posting signs like "due to avian flu, we don't have many eggs and the ones we do have are 12.99" or whatever. They should absolutely put up signs about the tariffs increasing prices

The raw milk people are hilarious. All you have to do is meet one (1) cow and smell the situation in which they are producing that rawness and you will pasteurize everything you own for a week

They will be called ICE Youth and when the historical parallels are pointed out they will act like it's insane to draw that comparison

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort.

It aired in 1990.

JD Vance and other pedophile protection party officials are holding an emergency meeting tonight over their strategy on the Epstein files.

This cover-up is a disgrace to Epsteinโ€™s victims. The American people deserve transparency and accountability.

Release the Epstein files.

If candidates are wondering how they should sound, go check out that Hunter Biden interview from a couple weeks ago. If they wonder how they shouldnโ€™t sound, go look at nearly any Hakeem Jeffries speech or interview.

F.B.I. Is Asked to Arrest Texas Democrats in Battle Over House Seats

The ruling party wants to arrest members of the opposition party who are trying to stop them from rigging the mid-term elections.

This is not something which happens in a democracy. MAGA is trying to create a one party dictatorship.

First porn, now YouTube, ID checks to access the internet are creeping in.

China & Russia started this way. Now their internet is locked down: no anonymity, no dissent, total surveillance.

We are sleepwalking into total fascism. Donโ€™t buy the โ€œprotect the kidsโ€ excuse. They want total control.

Weโ€”and especially our political pressโ€”need to be very clear that they are saying exactly what they mean. Concentration camps, limited sanitation, no due process, mosquito-filled. This is what they want, nationwide. And very quickly, who they fill them with will be whoever they choose.

Read This When Things Fall Apart by Kelly Hayes | Pilsen Community Books Letters to Activists in Crisis

This book is a care package for organizers and activists. I wrote the first and last letters in the book and edited letters from beloved friends and co-strugglers like @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social, @mayaschenwar.bsky.social, @shaneburley.bsky.social, @prisonculture.bsky.social, and many more.

The confederates are so funny. The rest of us are out here being normal, and theyโ€™re like โ€œremember that time we came in second place in a war?โ€

The dead have a right to remain dead. An animated skin put over a computer model and given the same name as the dead son of grieving parents is a cursed golem and a full delusion. By interviewing the computer model, Acosta has asked us to accept this as true or real. Gun control deserves better.

I am really sick of all these pieces about the DOGE boys who uncritically and unthinkingly repeat the claim that they're "geniuses."

We have to stop regurgitating out the label of "genius" exclusively for a certain type of special white little boy.

ME: *reading the bad news website all day* we're doomed. there's no way to come back from this

Being a woman in the U.S. in 2025 is being a second-class citizen with no bodily autonomy and no pay equity and spending 10 years writing an essay about how casually men destroy womenโ€™s lives and not one day later, some fucker publishes a piece about how men not getting laid is a crisis

What the world saw on the campaign trail was only part of the story.

My new book is a behind-the-scenes look at my experience leading the shortest presidential campaign in modern history.

107 Days is out on September 23. I can't wait for you to read it: kamalaharris.link/107DaysBook

Kamala Harris has sent the signal to Black women. It's the same signal Michelle Obama sent when she skipped the inauguration.

We need to sit back and see how things shake out. People decided to touch the stove. We need to stand back and let them cook.
