It’s definitely more prevalent, I think, perhaps, it’s a snowball effect. The more they see someone else do it, the more they feel empowered to do it.

SNAP benefits expire in one week.

this is the kind of thing you’d pay a kid just out of college to write, for a rate approaching minimum wage. i know because that was me 20 years ago. fuck everyone who participated in going from that to this

As a NJ voter and Democrat, I’m extremely disappointed in your decision to vote for the resolution honoring the legacy of Charlie Kirk. Whether it was purely political, or you actually support what Kirk built, NJ does not need a more conservative governor, it needs a governor for ALL people

had Biden randomly wandered on the White House roof shouting at reporters about nuclear weapons, Jake Tapper would drop everything to pitch a new series of books and Hannity would anchor ongoing special coverage until 2029

but when Trump does it it's just Trump being Trump!

And this melts your brain how quickly? I just want to know what to expect

The same company that's buying CBS (and needs Trump's approval to do so) is also trying to buy Bari Weiss' website. It's a political decision.

Sincerely, absolutely terrible choice in how you have chosen to cover the latest step into fascism

House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

I'm imagining ICE doing to NYC what it's doing to LA — and the people of NYC responding the way people are in LA — and it all happening under Mayor Cuomo. He'll side with ICE, DHS and, of course, the NYPD. This man, who hates the city and doesn't live here, can not become mayor. Don't rank him.

it's state propaganda now

Wow just a win-win-win (I’m counting Michael Shannon as a win)

I cannot imagine how excited @davidlsims.bsky.social is for this

there is no “epidemic,” he is almost certainly going to say it is vaccines and, well, stay safe everyone.

what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like “we need more ambition right now.” there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. he’s doing it!

DHS Detains Columbia Student Who Helped Lead Pro-Palestinian Protests Mahmoud Khalil was picked up by immigration officers who said they were acting on State Department orders to revoke his green card, his attorney says.

If the lawyer’s claims bear out — that he requested her presence, that she by phone requested to see the warrant, and they arrested him without producing the paperwork? The ACLU will have a field day and rightly so: www.wsj.com/us-news/educ...

Do these people understand how demoralizing it is FOR THEIR OWN FUCKING VOTERS for them to sit here like punks like this???

Every single Democrat should interrupt until they are thrown out. EVERY SINGLE ONE

The Democrats shouldn't be there.

As someone who voted for you twice, to see you thank Trump and his dreadful pick for Transportation Secretary is embarrassing. Congestion pricing works, is better for the environment, and your lack of ability in negotiating a fair deal for NJTransit should not mean a terrible reversal of policy

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

Proof that NJ needs to embrace congestion pricing, drop the ridiculous highway expansion, and focus on improving and expanding NJ Transit

this is incredible stuff. most state DOTs would spend tens of billions on highway expansions to try and see numbers like this (that wouldn’t even pan out anyway thanks to induced demand lol)

Are there any non-service academies in the FBS who should run a triple option-style offense? Or does NIL making the prospect of landing P4 back ups looking for playing time create an incentive to play more mainstream offense?

This makes me believe that pitchbot is a fan of @michaelhobbes.bsky.social

While a tough, intense read, I enjoyed Maggie’s Grave by David Sodergren as a horror recommendation. I know it’s older (2019) but I read Recusion by Blake Crouch and loved it.

CLEAN OLD FASHIONED OVERTIME.

fuck private equity

The stress it puts on the NJ PATH trains is enough to make it a net negative lol
