Oh my

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Compare this to how Whitmer just dismissed the idea of anyone caring about tearing down the White House

This is outstanding

I am going to eat the fuck out of these tacos

Article reads: Woman named as Archbishop of Canterbury in historic first The 63-year-old archbishop-designate is married to Eamonn Mullally, with whom she has two children. Originally from Woking in Surrey, she was the UK's chief nursing officer from 1999 to 2004.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

Republican Sen. Mike Lee of Utah took down X posts Tuesday making an apparent connection between Gov. Tim Walz and the man accused of shooting two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses, and blaming “Marxists” for the murders. The change comes after blowback from Sen. Tina Smith and her staffers as well as Minnesota Democratic and Republican lawmakers. One X post said “Nightmare on Waltz Street,” with pictures of Boelter, who is accused of killing Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, and shooting Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, in the early morning hours of June 14. Boelter also went to the homes of two other state lawmakers that night; one house was empty, and at the other, a police officer pulled up to the house shortly after Boelter arrived, so Boelter left. Another Lee post read, “This is what happens When Marxists don’t get their way,” with a picture of Boelter.

No elected official Democratic party will be as cruel about Kirk's death as Mike Lee was about the death of Melissa Hortman.

Congratulations and good luck! Let us know how it goes.

The crowd around Starry Night at #MOMA was wild. I wonder what he would think about this.

Dude explaining how he made his first $10 million:

1. Get up at 5:00AM every day
2. 90 minutes of cardio
3. Take a cold shower
4. Journal
5. Schedule out your day
6. Dad owns Fortune 500 company
7. Meditate

Find Out Why Health Insurance Denied Your Claim You likely have the right to access records that explain why your insurer denied your claim or prior authorization request. Use ProPublica’s free tool to generate a letter requesting your claim file f...

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

The worst chief justice of all time Move over, Roger Taney and Melville Fuller.

New in PN: The worst chief justice of all time

"American history has no shortage of legendarily bad chief justices and disgraceful decisions. But John Roberts has overseen the wholesale corruption and capture of the Supreme Court, and history should look back on his tenure with revulsion."

Sarah Matthews: "Josh Hawley wrote an op-ed in the NYT warning against this bill, talking about cuts to Medicaid. And then he ends up ultimately voting for it. Why? Because he's more scared of losing his position in power than actually doing what's right for his constituents."

This is so deeply embarrassing. The grammar is atrocious and the random capitalization is giving me an agita. Aside from the whole our government trying to tell the Brazilian president how to run his country, of course.

Sorry about your dad. And that you’re stuck writing an obituary for someone you barely knew.

our country rn

To be fair, about 35% of this country are absolute morons.

💰

In 2021, after Eric Adams beat Kathryn Garcia 50.4% to 49.6% with 404,513 total votes, he met with Biden and Pelosi and was declared the future of the Democratic Party. Mamdani has now beaten Cuomo 56% to 44% in the final count and increased Adams's vote share by 35%.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

Happy #caturday. DO NOT interrupt his sleep. #evileye

Am in favor

Because beating your wife is HILARIOUS

Didn’t cry until episode 3 #thebear
