One of the most fascinating/saddest/stupidest experiences of my life was seeing how an FTC consent order was drafted (by someone who didn’t know what they were doing), and then how even that person didn’t understand what it said. Not surprisingly, it was not effective!

I couldn't agree more, @mikedrucker.bsky.social

ZOOM IN: Critics of corruption consider it harmful to society. WHY YOU SHOULD CARE: Some of them could have more power after the midterms. BE SMART: Better get while the graft is good.

When a Democrat praises Lindsey Graham and ignores his vital role in enabling an autocratic takeover of American government, it's because it's all a game to them. It's because they view Congress as a private members club and because they are immune from the consequences of government action.

Super disingenuous framing by HuffPost. Look. I'm the king of calling Bernie and his Bernie Bros and the DSA Bros out on their anti-Black racism. This is not that. He was asking a *Black leftist*, how they address nonsense from *Black centrist* because as a white leftist, this is not his place.

One challenge in maturity is whether you can swallow enough of your pride to support what is right and just and ethical, or whether your ego will prevent you from ever admitting you made a mistake.

Speedrunning the journey from “calling everyone snowflakes” to “demonstrating how to be a brittle snowflake”.

You’ll be so surprised to know that this piece is so incoherent that it doesn’t actually tell you what the left doesn’t want you to do on Father’s Day, and what you should do (apparently?) is to buy the writer’s book (?)

According to my Amazon Echo Show, the “trusted news sources” for daily news briefings are the NY Post and Fox News so I threw my echo show in the garbage.

/3 Anyway, I don’t think Jesse would devote himself to helping get minorities in Europe killed. But I think he would do a multi-part series critiquing and mocking anyone who didn’t want minorities in Europe killed.

lol Mariska literally sprinted from her second show to the Garden www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general...

Look, I’m sorry but I just can’t believe the Knicks came all the way back. And I bet a lot of my fellow basketball fans feel similarly. This calls into question the legitimacy of their Game Four win.

Me, a smart free thinker who won’t surrender to the Woke mob: how is it possible a Republican lost in Los Angeles

I am terribly sorry I am not an avid reader of yours, but I don't think your objectively incorrect statements are going to be less incorrect in broader context of all your bsky posts

This show is fucking great

I never thought I’d miss Donald fucking Rumsfeld

/2 Also: notice the parallels between Trumpism and the sort of Matt Stoller politics on display here: the notion that what the people really want is to be able to be douchebags in public without any social sanction. The commonality is being assholes; whether it’s for left or right is just cosplay.

here's what i wrote

L - GOP Rep and MI senate candidate Mike Rogers actual photo from the campaign trail. R - Photo put out by staffer.

Incredible. A+, 10/10, no notes

"Sure, Trump is explicitly hijacking the country's 250th anniversary to make it a celebration of himself, but it's pretty rude of everyone to point that out and say it sucks instead of just going along with it."

CLIENT: These federal charges seem serious. What kind of sentence could I get? LAWYER: Depending on the next presidential election, you're looking at somewhere between life imprisonment and becoming a millionaire.

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying.

“I want a historic home in a historic district but also I want to replace the leaded glass windows with vinyl” should be a capital crime

I wonder what its like to write for the daily mail and be paid peanuts to search twitter for people pretending to be fans of Stephen Colbert writing fake tweets so you can publish an article based on them.

I don’t think DOJ should hand the president a multi-billion dollar slush fund he can divvy up between criminals he likes and his private bank account, nor that he should be able to buy stock then use taxpayer funds to boost that company. It’s corrupt. Sorry to get so partisan, but that’s how I feel.

TIL you can appropriate multiple cultures in a single product

In theory I love getting told whether or not I’ll have WiFi on my flight but this is just confusing. Sent 8 minutes apart.
