Politico wrote up Zohran playing basketball with the uncovering-a-big-scandal tone the same day the NYTimes wrote up "credible allegation that The President of the United States raped a woman" as a political strategy story. Broken media in a nutshell

Don't know who will win the 2028 democratic nomination, but I know that the winner will be someone who fully embraced pedocon/grand old pedos theory

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.

Jeffries sucks but this all seems pretty reasonable?

"donald trump and sean duffy wholeheartedly agree with the anti-bike folks here" should be used at any community meeting going forward

Ramaswamy is doubling down on the ad starring Amy Acton's abusive mother defending Acton's rapist and calling her a liar about it at age 12 because Republican politicians and voters ideologically support the physical and sexual abuse of women and children by men, whom they see as their owners.

i don't think i've ever seen a campaign do a murder-suicide before (decent chance this drags down the entire GOP ticket in the state)

Look, we all knew Ramaswamy was a massive piece of shit but apparently he was really worried that we didn't know *just* how massive a piece of shit he was, so, great job, Vivek, you've certainly cleared that one up, haven't you

PAXTON: hey we're catching a lot of shit for holding our final rally at the alamo, the site of an infamous Texas doomed last stand TRUMP:

While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"

"If Super PACs spend, everything will be alright"

Who’s on the golazo show trashing the bofana bofana World Cup celebration from Betis, and who pissed in their cornflakes?

I think Ossoff captures something that Newsom never did: the Dem base wants you to fight but they want real shit not goofy memes and too-online riffs

Scott Novak saw an opportunity to flip that coin with panache and boy did he take it

What’s so funny is that he and Trump have done most/all of the same stuff, but Paxton can’t wriggle out of the headlines with his Schumer-level charisma

this is genuinely the best info screen i’ve ever seen on public transit anywhere. every time i get an r211 train i have to take a few moments to admire how well done it is

A good summation of David Brooks and "civility" politics generally: no one on the right-wing can ever be described honestly, while everyone who isn't on the right-wing is always portrayed as a radical breaking cherished norms.

LMAOOOOO CRY EAGLES CRY

Headline makes it sound like the DCCC spent all their money on hookers and blow and now rent is due but the real reason is Trump and the Republicans are so toxic the DCCC thinks it can compete in districts Trump won by 13-20 points.

nobody respects trump supporters, least of all trump

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854
