I think about these two a lot

The manosphere is a reaction to thr first time straight men were slightly somewhat held accountable for their actions for 5 minutes

There are some valid reasons to grant 'proffer' immunity to an already-convicted person, e.g. to obtain information helpful to other prosecutions.

Doing it to try to absolve the President of his sex crimes while dangling a pardon for the convicted is not one of them.

Ghislaine Maxwell received limited immunity during meetings with deputy attorney general: Sources A second meeting between Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche took place on Friday for about three hours.

What they’re about to try here is just obscene. What else can you call it?

🚨 We just won a forced subpoena of the Epstein files 8-2 in our @oversightdemocrats.house.gov subcommittee. This will force Chairman Comer to issue the subpoena. This is an enormous win by Oversight Democrats.

16. The Article was published in The Wall Street Journal as an exclusive.' However, since publication, Defendants have widely disseminated it to hundreds of millions of people worldwide.

WSJ claimed the Trump–Epstein article was an “exclusive.” But what if I told you they fully intended to show it to people? storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This is not the act of a legitimate government.

I go back and forth on using LLM for tasks, and I'm going to post later about my distaste for being gaslit by a bot about what I'm seeing in my terminal with my own eyes, but I recently took a test run at letting LLM write first draft of my commit messages for me and this really did crack me up

I heard more than one person say general strike would be as simple as AFL-CIO calling for it.

I remember this sort of thing during the heyday of OWS. A bunch of excited, outraged, and passionate younger folks calling for a general strike, and then those of us who have helped organize strikes before encouraging them to start a little smaller and organize their workplace first.

Will Meet The Press ask random other white politicians to condemn Trump's antisemitic language this weekend? Or does that only apply to Mamdani?

Then we need Democrats on the Hill who will tell leadership to fuck off. It’s a five-alarm fire, the house is engulfed in flames, and they are standing here limiting people to only one firehose.

I don’t want to hear any more bullshit from these people about how will we pay for social services ever again

The landlords on the other hand…

As my friend Bernie Sanders says, "They've got the money, but we've got the people."

Hearing that Andrew Cuomo’s tried and true strategy of acting like he deserves your vote because he has so many rich friends may actually not work out for him but Mamdani’s unorthodox tactic of knocking on every door in New York seems to be unexpectedly effective?

Microsoft never ceases to amaze me with how badly their products integrate. I'm trying my hand at Focus session which turns on Win11 do not disturb while in a focused session. Everything seems to respect that setting except for Microsoft Teams.

hey @nytimes.com what if instead of this you reported accurately that the president of the united states has violated the united states constitution by entering into war with a foreign power without the approval of congress, just like, what if

Bernie Sanders: "Tonight, I introduced legislation to stop Trump from leading us into an illegal war with Iran."

"To everyone who pulls me aside to whisper with the best intentions 'You have already won', I am sorry, but the days of moral victories are over. And as my father told me years ago, 'When the Right wins power, the Left writes a great book.' Those days are over too."

Hey that’s me!

Remember, we *had* a diplomatic resolution to the Iran nuclear issue, thanks to the JCPOA that Obama put in place after years of hard work, but then President Spiteful Shithead withdrew the U.S. from the pact in 2018 and everything fell apart.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!
