while you were partying, i studied the ass

House Dems Report: “A growing body of evidence demonstrates Trump was an active participant in Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the 1990s. The DOJ & FBI are doing everything they can to keep the 🇺🇸 people in the dark about it.” The report: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

The NYT story does not even include the word rape. Not once.

The core of everything is corruption. The cruelty, the fascism, the destruction of democracy and reality itself, it's all a means of self-enrichment and empowerment of a class of people that do not give two shits whether we live or die if it means stuffing their pockets. It starts there and expands

Former presidents are just roasting the hell out of the White House redo today and it’s going to drive Trump absolutely insane

Adjusted for inflation, this is ten times the value of Fall's bribe in the Teapot Dome scandal.

Gift link - FOIA ftw U.S. Begins Disclosing C.I.A. Interview Reports From Scrutiny of Post-9/11 Torture The rolling release of long-secret files could add detail to the history of a legally disputed Bush-era counterterrorism program. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

"I Believed American Healthcare Was the Best in the World. Then I Did the Math" Yale epidemiologist @Alison_Galvani anticipated a hefty price tag for Medicare for All. But she found that we are already paying more than enough right now to cover the cost of universal healthcare.

❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.

“Everything made of words will be taken over by AI” Yuval Noah Harari spoke to Nobel-winning journalist @mariaressa.bsky.social and the Nerve’s @carolecadwalla.bsky.social about the threat of AI, for an in-depth and sometimes alarming conversation about humanity’s near future

“I'm not worried the Democrats will lose the midterms. I'm worried they'll win and use their normal ploy of installing a rotating villain to torpedo the vote as soon as something good and productive is about to happen.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=zswl...

Lucan Way and I have been writing about competitive authoritarianism for more than 25 years. We never thought we'd write this piece. www.journalofdemocracy.org/articles/com...

“unilaterally change the world without having to constantly convince people… tech is an incredible alternative to politics…” JD Vance & Trump-backing billionaire Peter Thiel making it clear tech oligarchs hate democracy👇🏽 When they tell you what they’re doing, believe them

There is a straight line between J6 and the pain everyone is feeling now. Straight line. I want to hear a Democrat tell that story.

Iowans want what the Democrats are offering. They just don’t want it from the Democrats. www.axios.com/2026/09/27/r...

I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm-bomb

This also sums up the American healthcare experience pretty well. American healthcare is a travesty. This is the bad place.

So Jimmy Kimmel had his wife parody Natalie Harp on his show. She played his unhinged assistant. It was as ridiculously funny as you might imagine.😅

this is legitimately very funny

I don't love dunking on folks but it's so fucking funny to me that Trump was convicted of 34 felonies 2 years ago, faced no punishment, and went on to win the presidency a second time and journalists are still like, "hmm, I have an inkling that maybe he believes he's above the law for some reason."

Ezra Klein asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about AI making kids worse at math and reading. Huang’s reply: “Does it matter?” Then he said he doesn’t know his own address or phone number. “We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/o...

I had not seen this clip where Tammy Duckworth advises Democrats to "not impeach anybody," "get back to work" and "allow" Donald Trump to "save face" and I would just like to remind the senator from IL that the federal government took 4,000 Chicagoans and murdered a 38-year-old father last fall.

Netanayhu is bad for Jews concerned about anti-semitism. www.timesofisrael.com/poll-majorit...

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

A billionaire dictator who'll lose everything if the opposition replaces him on Jan. 20, 2029 is stockpiling killer drones and high-powered rifles on towering monuments and ballroom roofs I'm sure it's nothing to worry about

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Not really sure where a bunch of liberals got the idea that they can’t win without throwing trans people in the garbage, but they’re stupid and cruel and wrong. If you want a human sacrifice so damned bad put gavin newsom in the wicker man

Which means—the nation. The entire nation. He can’t own or control it. So he’s destroying it. And destroying it is “owning” it…

We've seen a lot about how young people are struggling with mental health. I took the time to speak with young adults across the country about why things are so bad, from their perspectives. My deep dive here: newrepublic.com/article/2149...
