The fact that striking Iran can be put on hold for weeks in an attempt to sway the midterms clear proof that Iran doesn’t pose an imminent danger and this war is an evil charade

Some corporate Democrats and pundits think the party has gone too far "left" and needs to readjust towards the “center.” Rubbish. Where’s the center between democracy and oligarchy, and why would Democrats want to be there?

Made a little video about my reporting on “Tommy” from the viral @abdulelsayed.bsky.social town hall

Employers worldwide are pulling back on AI as they navigate a flood of errors and low-quality work that sap employee time, raise privacy and security risks, and drive up costs

BREAKING: Justice Department issues subpoenas in investigation into progressive Rep. Ilhan Omar’s immigration status, including to members of her family.

It’s bad enough that Gavin Newsom opposes California’s Prop 40. But he also supports Prop 42, a billionaire-backed poison pill that would cancel out Prop 40 entirely and make it impossible to enact future wealth taxes. It’s clear whose side he’s on. Remember this in 2028.

The Pentagon's plan to livestream Nidal Malik Hasan's firing-squad execution creates a parenting challenge that extends well beyond the broadcast.

Sam Altman said people are just gonna have to die in order to implement AI. In the very same week, Anthropic claimed it’s a human rights violation to be mean to the computer. These people need to be held accountable. They think lines of code are a person with rights but living people are debris.

I know, I know, I KNOW... but my jaw dropped. A gift link. (Also, hat tip to Sadie Gurman, who for many years now has pretty much owned the DOJ beat) www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

I’ve known many other defense secretaries, starting with Cap Weinberger, who served as defense secretary under Reagan. I can say without fear of contradiction that Pete Hegseth is the stupidest and least qualified of them all. He is a danger to the entire world. He must be impeached.

We don’t spend enough time talking about just how WEIRD all these people are. This is just an incredibly weird and insecure thing to say. Imagine any other SecDef ever being this weird and insecure?!

Ordering dinner via QR code feels less like going out for hospitality and more like submitting an IT helpdesk ticket for a bowl of pasta.

If a sentence in your newscast starts with “President Trump says…” you’re failing your audience.

So I was under the (mis) impression that Lake Ontario was still labeled Lake Ontario when you were searching from Canada? But I’m an American on a US phone plan currently in Ottawa And when I search Lake Ontario it defaults to “Lake America” in the search. Super dumb and super disrespectful.

Susan Collins was at the center of a major bribery probe for steering millions in contracts to a company whose CEO illegally funneled thousands to her campaign. Then Trump took office and gutted the FBI and DOJ units investigating her. Is this what "being moderate" looks like?

Happy Solstice :)

US TV networks suspend White House pool coverage over Trump media ban

Q: China is one of the most repressive countries for journalists in the world-- TRUMP: Well, I don't know about that. I think we're repressive also

And he hath no understanding of how the economy works

Because I’m white, it was easy for me to conflate the solidarity we witnessed on the ground among New Yorkers on 9/11 for some kind of colorblind national unity in the months and years that followed. The reality is and was vastly different.

Shanah Tovah, New York! Wishing all Jewish New Yorkers celebrating a sweet, joyful and meaningful Rosh Hashanah. Here’s to a new year filled with health, happiness and blessings (and yes, even another Knicks championship).

In the 25 years since 9/11, the United States has spent $8 trillion+ on wars that have taken millions of lives in the name of fighting "terror." Can you imagine if we had instead invested those funds here on climate, health care, housing, and education?

NEWS: France’s Epstein investigation is expanding, with prosecutors identifying multiple potential recruiters and at least 13 previously unknown victims as they trace his trafficking network across the country.

www.theguardian.com/technology/2... Holy shit someone needs to stop this

You know who actually did show up at Ground Zero? Canadian emergency rescue crews.

There have been so many impeachable offenses, but lying about how you were a hero on a day that 2,753 people died in NYC in the 9/11 disaster—when you were on the other side of town, safely calling local media to brag about how you now had the tallest downtown building—is such a despicable one

People who have never applied for a job in their entire lives are trying to convince us that the job market isn’t bad 🙃

Perspective.

bsky.app/profile/mark... Atrocious. We can’t deny the dignity of our dead.

Can't wait to say goodbye to Mike Johnson after the midterms.

When they nuke Iran and Jesus don't come back And your son's still gay and there's no cheap gas When the vengeance of nations finally comes to port Will you be bitchin' 'bout men playin' women's sports I get weary I get nervous They hired a clown we got the whole damn circus

My son passed a baked egg food challenge today. If you’re the parent of an allergy kid you know this is a big deal. 🤩

macabre = “muh-KAHB” Worcestershire = “WOOSS-ter-sheer” omnipotent = “ahm-NI-puh-tunt” reticent = “RET-uh-sunt” epitome = “ih-PIT-uh-mee” myriad = "MEER-ee-ud" Never make fun of someone if they mispronounce a word. It means they learned it by reading.

Not the tofu! Yes, tofu too.

If The Office were filming now. This is perfect. 🎯🤣

Food companies wanted deregulation. Now there are dozens of recalls across the country. Mining companies wanted deregulation. Now the black lung rate is at a 45-year high. Financial companies wanted deregulation. Now financial losses to fraud are the highest on record. Noticing a pattern?

Also, given the Maduro…episode…this is basically stealing a sovereign asset - a war crime

I never thought the leopards would eat MY face
