I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

Fuck this asshole man we need to put racism back in the dark where it came from

Framing is everything

what a night

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

There’s something darkly beautiful about his longest rant against someone ever being directed at Bill Maher Truly there isn’t anyone more deserving

I asked Abdul El-Sayed about his exchange with the GOP plant about religion. El-Sayed has a theory of how to combat MAGA bad faith: Don't let it frame the discussion. Flush out the assumptions underlying the outrage bait. Here's El-Sayed answer. Read to the end: newrepublic.com/article/2169...

The craziest part is that I just saw a video of JD Vance doubling down on this

Nothing to see here, just a man openly colluding militarily with the Russians while also being placed in a position of power in the upcoming midterm elections

🔥 MEMPHIS to the city council: “YOU WORK FOR US NOT ELON MUSK” What a pic. (H/T councilman @jbsmileyjr.bsky.social — who voted for the moratorium, which failed 6-6)

Framing a survey as “do you think empathy is good OR IS IT A SIN AGAINST GOD” as if it’s going to get you accurate answers is wild work

Do y’all ever think about the fact that everything is expensive not because it really cost that much but because maybe 50-100 would rather see every living human suffer in squalor than give up a single nanometer of wealth? Because I do

He is 100% going to parlay Iran into entering the Ukrainian front against Ukraine oh wait he’s literally already doing that, we are actively aiding the Russians in the war effort

“Not abusing animals is the same thing as Hitler” God damn lmao what a bunch of assholes

Almost let myself get sucked into arguing with terminally online leftists again about third party voting, not this time satan

This is the funniest thing I've seen in a week.

Roman Omans everywhere

Nobel committee on a generational message sending run

These midterms are about to be fucking bonkers

🔥 @anandwrites.bsky.social on Bill Maher: “Cities are unfairly labeled. A large % of (LGBTQ youth) homeless who end up in cities were failed in other parts of 🇺🇸 . Many families choose a verse in a Book over their child… cities are holding a lot of people you failed to love & take care of.”

“We just wanted to be able to threaten desperate immigrants with deportation so we could pay them almost nothing, we didn’t want to face consequences for that!”

They 👏 Destroy 👏 Media 👏 ON PURPOSE 👏 It’s 👏Not 👏 Bad 👏 Business

They are fucking playing in our faces, what’s the next one, the Transparency Act 3: With A Few Small Players Thrown Under the Bus?

👇👇

Of course Bari did CBS News(max) is a disgrace

Did not have CBS piling onto the racist smear campaign on my bingo card honestly

Insane how the media structure is poweful enough to suppress this blatant heartless corruption when the entire GOP platform has been going after corruption. I know why it happens but it’s still insane

Grifting off your dead parents to kill more people so you can make some money is incredibly nasty

The “radical left” wants you to be able to eat a salad and go to the doctor. Super scary stuff.

Is there more to this or have we decided the full might of the USA is being reigned in by literal toddlers with no other solution?

The party to protect the children though right? I wish this was actually politically damaging that they literally stole medicine from sick children

NEW on “Paper Trail”: Hundreds of immigration agents stormed a Chicago apartment complex overnight last year, some rappelling down from a helicopter. Trump officials claimed they successfully arrested “terrorists.” We uncovered a very different story.

BREAKING NYT: A month after the Trump admin declared without evidence that thousands of noncitizens had illegally registered to vote in Nevada, DHS officials were unable to substantiate the claim — finding just 185 potential anomalies, not the 16,000 claimed last month.

Absolute shocker here

Love how this dude discovered the cheat codes of "what if I listened to constituents" and "what if I modeled good behavior" and "maybe I behave like a normal person should." These are apparently dark secrets that have been hidden from other politicians.

If anything he did was being done at the local scale not a single person who backs him would allow themselves to be treated that way

Sickening

Absolute shocker

What blows my mind is there are people who will say with a straight face that we should eliminate the Department of Education who also would go after this candidate for saying this about ICE, an organization that didn’t exist until a little over a decade ago

So why isn't Fox news televising interviews of all the happy people who live near data centers so we can hear what a treat it is to live with the constant noise, lights, increased utility costs and non-existent new jobs?

It's amazing how quickly “If you've got nothing to hide…” became “On the advice of counsel...”

Lawyers now say damage to pool liner attributed to David Hearn instead is result of installation by contractor
