Knowing the dems, this person could probably get them to sign off on 80% of repub fuckery as part of this deal!

An ambitious swing seat Repub rep could likely find the 8 repub votes for a motion to vacate the speaker, make a deal with dems re: tariffs, be speaker of the house in three days, and take up the senate’s tariff bill. This seems such an obvious winner for someone who will otherwise lose in 26.

So that you can sell out anyone who tries to actually do anything to stop this mess? You can call them, you’re not busy doing anything useful.

It's a great job, you're in charge of a beloved national institution and get to work with and on behalf of a lot of talented journalists. The downside is that sometimes you will have to go to Washington D.C. and try to calm down an extremely flustered cartoon pig.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

I saw the work by Olga Lautman and he findings were disturbing: Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the signal chat. Russia has infiltrated Signal and used against Ukrainians. Very possible they have the classified signal info:

They had a week from when Goldberg *visibly* left the chat to figure out how to deal with it and instead just did nothing!

Just accidentally texted Steve Harvey the plans for my invasion of France. I'd appreciate privacy during this difficult time and whatnot.

Everyone on the chat saw that Goldberg removed himself A WEEK AGO and they evidently… just did nothing. Find dumber people anywhere, I challenge you.

Everyone on the signal chain would have seen that Goldberg removed himself from it … a week before the story came out. And they evidently … just waited to see what would happen. Find dumber people anywhere.

my takeaway from reading this is that i have to assume that every half-competent intelligence agency in the world has an almost real-time glimpse into what the white house and the pentagon are doing

Someday it will seem insane that there was a period when people thought the couch story was untrue just because the outlets like the Times, doing everything in their power to normalize his campaign, said it wasn't. Who cares if someone admitted to making it up, why would that matter.

Glenn Youngkin has left the Patrick Henry reenactment and receives a chorus of boos as he makes his way to his car.

Any pub or show not running or reporting on this comment right here is absolutely caping for this administration.

Everyone knows education is the most kitchen table ass talking point ever and specifically saying disabled kids shouldn't have access to it affects so many families

The Trump administration is, by its words, its deeds, and by the people who comprise it, a white supremacist regime and it fully hopes and intends to usher in a new segregationist era. In order to do that it must, by its own bigoted logic, deny and erase the accomplishments of anyone who isn't white, who isn't male, who isn't Christian, who isn't straight, and who isn't gender-conforming. It has now done so with Jackie Robinson, a civil rights pioneer and, in my view and the view of many others, the most significant figure in baseball history.

At what point does someone in a position to stop this do something? Where is the bottom? And if there is no bottom, how much farther will we fall before those of us without the power to stop it take action of our own?

We need to start calling things what they are.

Chuck Schumer Is Responsible | Defector Chuck Schumer was always going to come out of the budget showdown a loser. The only question was which of the two available forms of losing he would end up with: an organized legislative surrender to…

"The Democrats had refused to abolish the filibuster when Schumer was the majority leader, on the grounds that someday they might be the ones who needed it. Now the House and the public were begging Schumer to use it. And he refused."

Report: mRNA vaccines are in RFK Jr’s crosshairs; funding in question β€œKennedy’s war on vaccines has started,” one researcher said.

mRNA vaccines are legit a near-miracle tech, there's one in testing that might be able to cure pancreatic cancer, and this fucking degenerate might take them from us arstechnica.com/health/2025/...

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.

They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.
