Find someone who looks at you like Mike Rogers looks at Donald Trump.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Yes, this. It’s hard for anybody to admit they were wrong. But that’s how people improve.

Anthony Davis on why some Trump supporters refuse to abandon him, even as his approval rating falls to record lows. “Admitting that a long-held political stance was mistaken requires accepting that years of defense, personal friction, and social conflict were based on a flawed premise.”

Michigan Senate candidate Doctor Abdul El-Sayed meet with survivors Sharlene and Liz and toured the Trump and Epstein memorial reading room in Detroit Michigan with Senator Chris Murphy and Congressman Maxwell Frost.

Abolish ICE.

I don’t understand why farmers need an endless series of welfare payments from the rest of us since Trump took office. Aren’t his policies working for you? You need us to pay you so you will keep voting for the guy who is failing you? Don’t you believe in free market capitalism?

First, Thomas Teepell is not a voter. He lives in a different state. He was a political plant. Or, if you will, a paid protester. He is an agitator. Second, Abul El-Sayed responded with more patience than most people could muster. Calling him an angry, overly defensive jerk is you projecting.

Happy Crock of Shit Day! A year ago today, the federal government was hard at work committing prosecutorial misconduct to secure the wrongful indictment of myself and five others. Time flies.

Yes

Ben Meiselas: And here's a compilation of Trump saying many times that if any country bought oil from Russia, he would go after them...

Messed up.

"Targeting those who bankroll the Russian war machine through oil purchases will crush Putin's ability to fund his war." — Senate GOP, July 28 Ten weeks later, Trump is making oil deals with Putin. A brief history of Republicans being against this, until they weren't 👇

Because he's one of the only people standing next to a Republican going, "this person is a piece of shit, I don't respect him, neither should you, he's fucking evil and he needs to go, and I don't care if it makes me sound rude saying it" LIKE EVERY DEMOCRAT SHOULD BE DOING??? MAYBE???

One of the most shameful things to come out of Gabe Evans' smarmy little pie-hole last night was that Manny wants to "trans your kids" and that if you don't, he'll send you to jail It is such a tired, worn-out MAGA trope and it elicited a lot of ridicule from the crowd What a fuck-wit #copolitics

Evergreen response.

Valenti is the most important abortion rights resource in our country.

I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

Here's footage of Jack Smith at the Iowa vs. Maryland game on February 3rd, 2024 btw

MacFarlane: The Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio has got the same issue. Last year, they paid $50,000 for diesel to transport their food. Now, they’re paying $150,000 for the diesel to transport their food.

This is my rep in congress. Thanks Brittany!

Yes! Boosting this one, what a great idea. Give some peace of mind.

In 2024, nearly 2,400 women were killed by men, according to the Violence Policy Center. Of these, 86.9 percent knew their killer—nearly nine out of 10.

The family of a woman who died horrifically after she could not get an abortion in Texas is suing doctors and state officials including Attorney General Ken Paxton. Her aunt said: "I want justice for her. I want it to not happen to anyone else. It needs to stop.”

You can take the Ross outta the Times...

40% more kids are eating breakfast and 15% more are eating lunch since we launched free school meals in Minnesota. Now we’re making sure 100% of kids eat their broccoli.

NEW: Our analysis found that from 2020 to 2025, the rate of deaths involving ectopic pregnancies nearly doubled compared with the previous six-year period. The uptick was steeper in states with abortion bans.

Wow: the federal government is paying MAGA influencers on X and other social media to post pro-regime propaganda. Actual paid crisis actors. Incredible reporting here. wapo.st/4x0p3pf

Poor wolves. Forcibly relocated to Colorado against their will and the wishes of many people. Under fire from hunters who mistake them for coyotes. So we're kicking off a helpful new PSA segment: "Is it a wolf?"

LFG!!!!!!

I and other reporters here at HuffPost have been reporting on the degradation of the DOJ since it began. John Oliver packages this subject in a taut 25 minutes. youtu.be/PUPuhlJ3IuE?...

YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED BUT I'M USING THE WORD "ULTRAHEAT" I KNOW WE'VE HAD 90° AND 100° DAYS BEFORE BUT WE'RE HAVING THEM MORE ( SOURCE www.climatecentral.org/climate-loca... ) AND THAT'S BECAUSE OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND THAT'S WHY I'M USING THE TERM ULTRAHEAT. #ULTRAHEAT.

El-Sayed: "It means holding people like RFK Jr accountable for the DOGE-ing of our public health, for which we now need to be dodging lettuce across the state of Michigan for fear of getting explosive diarrhea, which nobody ever thought you be a consequence of electing Donald Trump, but here we are"

I remember this news show starting out and it’s now the country’s best local TV news.

Good framing.

The WNBA has never had a trans woman play in the league’s 30-year history and now the right and other anti-trans activists are hammering the league over something that has never been an issue, proving once again it isn’t about protection but exhibiting cruelty toward trans people.

In his live video, Max Miller stated that the allegations only stemmed from his ex-wife. Wrong. There are allegations that he: - Threw a girl down the stairs in high school - Was expelled from college for a violent incident involving a female student - Abused his ex-girlfriend Stephanie Grisham
