JFK. No. Impeach. Investigate. Hold hearings. When you find new crimes, impeach again. Make GOP senators vote over and over to defend the criminality. Create a historical record of their cowardice. We need to be clear that all of this is not okay.

The powerful executives who cozied up to Trump didn't oops accidentally forget about pendulum swings. They either: 1) Like the fascism 2) Calculated it was here to stay, so going along was savvy 3) Saw no real downside, no consequences when the pendulum swung Crucial to show them 3 was a mistake

A month ago I watched witness video of ICE agents tearing a man out of a car in Chicago. There was a child in the back seat and the woman in the passenger seat was crying and praying to God for mercy

No time to explain get in the Xillenium Falcon

NEW: The DOGE operative who gutted USAID -- firing thousands of employees and canceling lifesaving programs -- never actually signed the paperwork that's legally required for him to be employed by the agency.

The actually existing fundraising model for the Democratic Party is to scam old people out of their savings, so I’m not sure that approach is superior to DSA’s.

just heartbreaking stuff Alex Pretti's mother calls out ICE and the Trump administration for killing her son and smearing his name, and calls for justice to be done.

691 words about Cheesecake. 434 words about rape.

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

"arabs have contributed nothing to the arts and sciences" is such a funny fucking thing for a bog ape wearing a little suit to say

i don't think anyone should run explicitly on banning online gambling but i do think that a democratic-led government should just quietly take steps to undermine the industry and create an inhospitable regulatory environment

go birds

A commission of United Nations human rights experts said on Monday that Israel was committing genocidal acts against Palestinian civilians in Gaza despite a cease-fire agreement there and carrying out crimes against humanity in the West Bank. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/26/w...

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

When people like Anne Applebaum talk about the far-right they don't mean the Middle East because they exceptionalize the region so much that its developments exist outside time. The region is filled with far-right leaders that she happens to support.

it's amazing to get a job where you can just write the same thing for fifteen years and make probably like $200k a year doing it

I don't know that there is a definitive line to cross that makes you say, "I live in a police state now" but when masked gunmen can routinely brutalize the public, citizen or immigrant alike, with impunity, you have reached that point.

Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

Anything that makes people realize Polymarket/Kalshi are bullshit packaged as “wisdom of the crowd” is a win 👍🏻

Harrison Butker needs to spend more time practicing his kicking and less time practicing an esoteric Catholicism that you can only access after watching 1000 hours of YouTube and growing a little beard.

pretty clear evidence that republicans in the US losing any election going forward are going to always beg for a coup if they lose. lots of people will have to go to jail

Brazil’s results tonight are a big endorsement for the idea that every country should have a second “are you you sure about that” election a couple weeks after the first one for the important stuff

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

The attacks on @ilhanmn.bsky.social and Somalians more generally are so blatantly racist. There is little substance by suggesting Somalians are more likely to be criminals and demeaning their country. It's as gross as it gets.

i really do think that a successful impeachment and removal of hegseth is a live possibility if dems win the senate. he is a genuine disaster.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry attacking Brad Lander - a self-described liberal Zionist - by name, simply for doing protective presence, should be the final sign that the Israeli government would gladly sacrifice every last Jew in Diaspora to dominate more Palestinians with impunity.

JD Vance greeting Bengals players and most are ignoring him lol

Yup hit the nail on the head the lean into the confrontation NYC asshole thing only works if you have that vibe and I would describe JD and Vivek more as some combination of “Vampire’s Familiar” and “Kid who wears suit to school and has his parents call the principal on any kids who make fun of him”

Alright man…

A vile stain on our national soul, and all so that the Republican Party and its racist electorate could rock forward and back and giggle gleefully into their phones while they punished black folks and shot this community’s economy in the dick

Just been such a revolution in my worldview to realise that people like Musk actually believe this, this isn't just the nonsense they feed the rubes so they can do coldly rational mercantile calculations in smokey rooms among themselves. No. It's rubes all the way down, they're that stupid.

Elon Musk threatens Congress.

genuinely i think this is about half of what's going on in my town. the seniors are alone in their houses getting radicalized by AI slop

The party of, by, and for child rapists
