i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

I read things like this and think it might not be the worst thing if AI destroys us all.

Texas, it’s time to lock in. Early voting starts today. Go vote!

Mitch McConnell is still too feeble to do things like drive a car, send an email, or feed himself. He must be eased back into daily life by serving as a United States senator.

Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

This was…very very good.

i’m just so fucking sorry that my muslim friends have to be hit with this despicable racism every single day. it’s not ok and you should not have to tolerate it. this country belongs to all of us.

Whether it's Kamala Harris buying cookware in France or Donald Trump lifting sanctions on Russia, both candidates have had troubling interactions with foreign entities.

This is awesome. If your vote didn’t matter Republicans wouldn’t be trying so hard to stop you.

There should be a million headlines about this speech calling it out as flagrantly Islamophobic but of course there aren’t.

Excellent piece - the guarantee of Jewish safety is the persistence of America as a liberal democracy committed to religious pluralism, not having as few people in Congress as possible willing to criticize the Israeli government. newrepublic.com/article/2164...

The main reason I’m voting for & raising money for Abdul in spite of the concerns I have is that if Dems don’t flip the Senate, Trump will have at least 2 MORE Supreme Court nominees—likely 35-yr old Hitler Youth types—confirmed, along with 100+ other federal judges w/lifetime appointments.

Florida Republican Matt Gaetz has been accused of sex trafficking young women and drugs in a new lawsuit: “At the time of this venture, Gaetz was a sitting member of Congress, holding himself out to be one of President Donald J. Trump’s closest confidants and most loyal supporters."

Trump's decision to post a gruesome video of a tiger eating a man raises new questions about Joe Biden's mental state.

🚨Holy crap! Ken Paxton partied on New Year’s Eve 2024 in Dubai with his girlfriend and two U.S. fugitives (Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail) charged in healthcare fraud/embezzlement schemes. Ahmed, a major donor, gave about $190,000 to Paxton’s campaign — including after his indictment.

Ossoff: "They've unleashed federal agents to kill Americans on the streets of our cities with impunity. That's Mike Collins's immigration policy. And that's what you'd expect from the bigot congressman who called for executed immigrants by throwing to their deaths out of helicopters."

“If you don’t like public executions just don’t watch it” says the crowd trying to ban drag shows and books

Troy Jackson: "As late as 2024, the FBI was circling around Sen. Collins ... then when President Trump came back, his administration dismantled the investigation. Now she votes with Donald Trump 96% of the time. Look, I don't owe Donald Trump nothing."

"What will it take for you to admit you are ever wrong?" -- Troy Jackson nails Susan Collins on her vote to confirm Kavanaugh, 8 years to the day after Collins cast the vote that doomed Roe v Wade

Troy Jackson: Brett Kavanaugh was against abortion when Susan Collins met with him. She knew that was going to happen, and now after it's been overturned, she doesn't regret the vote. Everybody else in Maine and across this country regrets her vote.

JON STEWART: “So in the FUTURE we WILL use A.I. to cure diseases… but right now it’s mostly murder, surveillance, and surge pricing for the McRib — What a trade! I’m getting the sense you guys might be full of shit.”
