Instacart has removed the feature that allowed its retail partners to A/B test prices on its platform following reports that Instacart prices varied by an average of 7% across a sample size of 437 shoppers in four cities. Not every practice from building social apps translates to other domains.

Also, I mean, look around. "Deplorable" turns out to have been a massive understatement.

An impulsive liar very obviously lied again and we’re going full CSI on his signature like he hasn’t been impulsively lying for literally decades.

ICE is about to get more than the *combined* budgets of the FBI, DEA, ATF, Bureau of Prisons, and U.S. Marshals Service. Per expert @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social:

I was thinking that maybe, more than 20 years after the start of the Iraq war, media coverage would be more skeptical and less sycophantic No such luck

"I don't even understand what the fear of Trump is... He wants to avoid war all around the world." -- Clay Travis

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

crashing the economy and starting a war in the Middle East Donald Trump has finally become a conventional Republican after all

So the ICE agents scattered like cockroaches 🪳 timesofsandiego.com/life/2025/06...

at least he didn't do something truly reckless like try to forgive student loans

Yet Luigi launched a thousand hand-wringing op-eds from the chattering class. Makes you think

The American media wants war and likes Trump and will pretend like its 80-20 the other way in all their coverage

From Hunter S. Thompson’s ESPN page 2 column one week after 9/11.

This chart tells you everything you need to know about the NYC mayoral race. Everyday New Yorkers vs money.

Something I’d note is that while there is criminal immunity for “official acts” for the president, no such immunity exists for the deputy chief of staff.

thinking again about this 2018 cover

Tomorrow we’ll be out on the streets for the No Kings protests. You can join our campaign in rallying against fascism in Evanston from 10 to 12 and Des Plaines from 1 to 3. See you there! www.mobilize.us/katforillino...

From a dear comrade who was kind enough to let me share their video. Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!

Met an active duty member of the military yesterday who filed conscientious objector paperwork in response to deployment of military on U.S. soil. Was told multiple Army have filed, unknown quantities in other branches.

Amazing how hard it is to write: “Police shoot at journalists.”

It’s so much worse this time. It might not be clear if you don’t live in LA, but the supposed “riots” are tiny. They’re nothing like George Floyd in 2020. Protests are happening in a few blocks downtown and as resistance to specific ICE raids. This is 100% pretense for fascist subjugation.

ICE pretended to arrest a 21 yo in order to force her to call her undocumented mother to come leave the house (where she was safe from ICE arrest) to care for her baby. When the mother came, she was abducted and the daughter was suddenly of no interest to ICE. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Really good WSJ article on ICE escalations over recent weeks including Miller's visit to ICE national HQ where he demanded Home Depot raids. www.wsj.com/us-news/prot...

NEW As usual for major news events, disinformation on social media is running unchecked during the ICE protests in LA So people are turning to chatbots like Grok and ChatGPT for fact checking The problem is, the bots are making the situation much worse www.wired.com/story/grok-c...

I know it's super inconvenient for everyone trying to go to work and get the kids into summer camps and all that, but the White House is literally trying to start a civil war

“We came to the United States for protection because of what we encountered in Russia,” he said. “It seems that we are encountering here what we fled.” -- Russian asylum seeker who was detained and, he says, beaten by ICE agents. www.wsj.com/us-news/prot...

So-called “less-lethal” weapons like those that have been used against demonstrators in Los Angeles can cause severe, lasting harm like nerve or brain damage or blindness. They can also kill. www.wired.com/story/what-t...

Senator Chris Van Hollen is speaking live from El Salvador, where he just met with the Salvadoran VP: www.youtube.com/live/pYZPzHy...

Van Hollen says he was NOT able to see Kilmar Abrego Garcia during his visit to El Salvador He also was not permitted to speak with Abrego Garcia by phone

"One hairdresser." Fuck this useless coward.

Gosh, very difficult legal question, is it "facilitating" someone's return when you're paying another country to detain them?

Who else do we think he tipped off? Putin, MBS, his kids, Elon? Possible Trump made a whole bunch of people very, very rich today, illegally, of course.

***"is this market manipulation?"***

Alright, I think people knew of the tariff pause and traded it beforehand. You can see before Trump posted "buy" on Truth Social, traders opened $QQQ $TQQQ and $SPY calls RIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS, someone opened $SPY 509 calls, expiring TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those calls are up 2100% in one hour.

hail to the thief

Undoubtedly too, people close to Trump made a killing knowing this was coming:

this is how the american economy is going to work for AT LEAST two entire years

we just need stupider leftists. I'm dead serious. charismatic guys with the stamina to record 100 instagram reels a week in the front seat of their car saying stuff like "trump made summers too hot" and "the fries at wendy's taste better ever since they went woke"

the cave-in caucus

By fire half the federal government he means fire Congress. Then he'd have to climb over barricades or something to do his job and who'd do that 🤷‍♀️
