America putting most of its eggs in the generative AI basket, China going hard into green tech. When history looks back on this period, someone is going to look awfully stupid.

“How to Monetize Your Own Failures Through the Magic of Bigotry”

Holy f@$k!

“ChatGPT exhibits the highest level of anti-Black racism ever experimentally recorded.”

This whole video is jaw-dropping.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation seems to be throwing some shade at ICE.

Re-upping my prediction that she ends up at the Free Press. Or as the “flattering interviews with tech billionaires and the MAGA adjacent” correspondent for 60 Minutes.

Every moment that the GOP math gets weirder means that one Thomas Massie is more and more powerful in our electoral politics and right now? That's just funny instead of horrifying.

Funny how each Republican Speaker of the House, somehow, is worse than the last. I mean: Gingrich, Hastert, Boehner, Ryan, McCarthy...and now widdle-wee-wee-Johnson. Their combined track record of significant legislation is next to nothing. Combined record of incompetent inaction is staggering. 🤡👎

When Trump saw Mamdani, he didn't see a fellow politician; he saw a fellow charismatic celebrity.

Donald respects people who can get praise and attention, as he values those things far above politics.

The part where they threatened to break a judge’s car windows should be a bigger story … they feel comfortable treating judges this way, which means they are being told that they can do literally anything to nearly everyone

"Donald Trump is about to order the government to pay him 'damages' for the FBI raid on his Mar-a-Lago mansion and for special prosecutor Jack Smith’s two investigations of him...He’s going to pay himself $230 million."

“We stopped paying journalists and started rewarding performers.”

They misidentified the intern. The judge told them they had misidentified the intern. But instead of double checking, they took that as an affront to their authority. So they surrounded the judge's car and threatened to smash the windows to get to the intern.

They had misidentified the intern.

The Olivia Nuzzi Comeback Is Everything Wrong With Modern Media Olivia Nuzzi’s comeback isn’t a personal scandal story—it’s proof that today’s media rewards access, personality, and controversy more than ethics.

"She’s not trying to rebuild her reputation as a journalist—she’s building a different kind of brand entirely, one where being interesting matters more than being ethical, where attention is the only currency that still spends."

The best thing I have read about her. www.mediaite.com/opinion/the-...

Keker Sues DHS, ICE Over Allegedly Inhumane Conditions at Calif. Detention Center

Described as worse than prison, the conditions at the largest ICE detention facility in CA are inhumane. With the lives of detainees at stake, KVP has joined Prison Law Office, the ACLU, and the California Collaborative for Immigrant Justice in filing a class action: www.keker.com/news/news-it...

What the hell: The US accidentally invaded Mexico on Monday, storming a beach and planting DoD “restricted area” signs claiming the land for “the commander,” and triggered a standoff with armed Mexican security forces, all because Trump’s government can’t even identify a border on a map. 🧵 1/

Polymarket: BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani to require all New York elementary school students to learn Arabic numerals. Joshua Robert: The Islamification of New York begins. Messier 87: Arabic numerals is just 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Imao. Joshua Robert: Okay let's keep easing Islam into American society guys. They'll get used to it like Britain did.

How’s it going on the other site?

Breaking news!!!

Arsonist puts out fire he started 🤷🏾‍♀️

it just seems plainly clear to me that if you serve the country in any capacity, civil or military, and you are not a conservative white man, the Trump administration wants to make the workplace as hostile an environment as possible so you remove yourself

I needed to draw this picture

This is an accidentally honest answer. What she's saying in code is:
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."

It’s all workshopped on Black communities first. We told you to end qualified immunity. But you were all too scared to look like you weren’t “backing the blue.”

And here we are.

"But Trump is a great businessman"

HE BANKRUPTED A CASINO!

HE BANKRUPTED THE KIND OF BUSINESS THAT LITERALLY IS MADE FOR PURE PROFIT!

HE BANKRUPTED A BUSINESS THAT A 10 YEAR OLD KID COULD RUN!

Damn that building for ruining our economy!

I see our Very Normal President is once again having A Very Normal Day

These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott.

From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

Polymarket tweets: "BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani to require all New York elementary school students to learn Arabic numerals." Laura Loomer replies: "You know things are bad when you can't tell if this is real or a joke. Dear God. It's real. Isn't it?"

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

this is an old joke that long predates the west wing, but it's still a good one

screenshot of a post from X by the Mirriam-Webster account. Their tweet says Words step up when numbers fail. They are retweeting a post from @david_arid that reads: There was a computer flitch at the end of tonight's Nuggets game that erased all the players' stats, which led to this fantastic screengrab from the post-game show. Then there is a blurry picture from a men's basketball game and the chyron says: Time Hardaway Jr. Stats are down but he played great."

I need "Stats are down but he played great" to make it into the lexicon.

Not only that but every time he golfs he does it on one of his own properties & charges the government, putting tax money in his private coffers. Each golf trip is a self dealing grift and an unconstitutional emolument.
