Welp!

I cannot stop thinking about just how terrified this hard-working young man must have been. And how awful the driver of the pickup must now feel. And how the cruelty of all this is their goal.

You gotta just block these accounts without interacting. They're doing this the night before No Kings so they can selectively grab quote posts and replies about how nasty people are being. It's extremely transparent. Just block and move on.

CBS News: Some NYPD officers worry about Mandani becoming NYC mayor the Free Press reports.

Promoting the editor-in-chief's personal side project. Zero named sources in a story that promotes the editor-in-chief's personal political position. Misspelling the subject's name. It took one day for CBS News to become a conservative blog.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

For every €1 provided through a Basic Income For Artists pilot program in Ireland, the government got €1.46 back. So it’s being made permanent.

Over and over we see it. It saves public money to provide public housing. And it makes public money to provide basic income.

We can’t afford to NOT do it.

“Health care for illegal aliens” is the new “immigrants are eating cats and dogs in Springfield.”

The Republican playbook is simple: make up a baseless lie, repeat it every chance you get, hope and pray that everyone blames Democrats for the crises you created.

We working on verifying and documenting reports of multiple journalists assaulted, arrested and other press freedom violations while they covered U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activities in and around Chicago recently. Here's what we're tracking so far:

Turns out, the Superman Troll Monkeys are actually a thing. 🤯

DoorDash spent years misleading its delivery workers out of their hard-earned pay.

We held them accountable and secured $16.75 million to go back to its workers. 

Eligible DoorDash delivery workers in New York should file a claim by November 21, 2025.

Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

okay someone's using the right kind of language at least

ICE grabs a new father off the streets of D.C, as he begs them to remember their humanity.

"Brother, please! My wife, she can't walk!"

Their response? "We'll figure it out." But they won't! ICE "agents" have been as hostile to immigrant families as they are to detainees.

We found the waste, fraud, and abuse…

Trump’s ICE spent $560,000 on tricked-out trucks for a hype recruitment video. The vehicles were purchased and styled to look like Trump’s private jet.

If you know DC, what this map tell you is: They're making the gaudy show of strength in areas where it matters least and will do least good. Except for sheer spectacle.

Trump struggled to walk in a straight line as he went to greet Putin

YouTube video by Led By Donkeys From Covid is a “hoax” to needing supplementary oxygen. How a disaster unfolded.

#TrumpVirus Trump is a direct threat to our nation and the lives of our families. The first pandemic killed over 1/2 million Americans in less than 1yr. MANY crimes were committed, NO JUSTICE. It's a life & death fight against this regime. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeuH...

Why I left The Washington Post “Democracy Dies in Darkness” — but what if the lights are going out from within?

Holy crap. “That quest earned me a one-hour meeting in April 2024 with Will Lewis, the then-new publisher of The Post. During our discussion, he asked me: ‘What should The Post do to appeal more to Fox News viewers?’ glennkessler.substack.com/p/why-i-left...

Jackie Kennedy was responsible for the design of the former WH Rose Garden

She paid an extremely high price for that privilege

That fact can never be disputed

The beautiful green space she made is now a soulless parking lot

Dear God, look at the jobs report revisions for May and June! This is not at all the rosy picture it looked like to economists over the past few months.

Hunter Biden has a point. And a quite colorful one.
