Not a big story, it's just the Attorney General working with an imprisoned pedophile to help cover up the pedophile President's crimes conducted with his best friend for 15 years, a pedophile who the President sent, as a birthday card, a drawing of a naked adolescent girl.

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

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

Wonder if there's something to look into here with the NYU of it all. His gigantic son goes to that school, which doesn't make much sense, considering what NYU is and what he is. Why?

Make Gutter Racism Disqualifying Again

It’s just so appalling and enraging how casual and commonplace this has become. I’m out of words.

The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

That’s also why Vivek isn’t exactly lying when he says he didn’t mean to say Acton lied about being raped as a child. He doesn’t think she lied; he thinks that being raped disqualifies her from office, because she belongs to the class of people power is wielded against, not the class that wields it.

This is true even in matters as seemingly mundane as education policy. A new Chilean government Minister of Ed networks with Milei in Argentina who reaches out to Sir Nick Gibb in England who travels with Carl Hendrick to Austin to visit Alpha School. Ask me how I know. (Don’t, actually, busy)

It’s happening again. Because why wouldn’t it? Nobody was held accountable last time.

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 Democrats do well this fall, we’re going to see a lot of “strategists” trying to take credit for their approach. The trans panic people have been nothing but a drag on Democratic momentum and they need to fuck off into the sun

Any politician who’s willing to throw away one group’s rights is willing to throw away everyone’s rights. It’s that simple. Every single consultant, pundit and candidate who’s shown a willingness to abandon trans rights needs to be shunned from the party forever

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

Rowling *never* writes about women’s rights, workplace discrimination or the threats to women from predatory men. I tracked her posts for five months: Well over 200 hateful transphobic smears. Not a single post about women’s actual concerns or needs None

Oh you want me to go see the movie everyone is talking about? Go see it at a cinema? The place where they literally drive a train at you?? not gonna happen lol 😂

One of my tricks when using Google Docs document tabs is... NO CONTENT on the first tab I invite people to look at the tabs. Maybe a welcome and explanation of the document. #GoogleDocs #GoogleEDU #TeacherTech #EduSky

President Trump temporarily waived clean-air rules for industrial facilities that spew cancer-causing gases. Then his appointees worked to gut the regulations altogether. Our investigative reporter Eric Lipton explains how corporate interests took power inside the EPA. Read more: nyti.ms/4il3336

One of the big findings in my research is that people invested in disbelieving victims are not swayed by evidence. Just like other issues of misinformation, they cherry pick irrelevant details to allow them to continue to believe whatever they want.

#NoOn3 Did you know Mass. Question 3 not only creates "jungle primaries," but also changes other election rules? 🧵 www.sec.state.ma.us/divisions/el...

The plain fact of it is thus: the Trump administration wants to re-segregate higher education. It is a racist project straight-up-no-chaser. Accommodating any of this puts you on the wrong side of history, makes you a collaborator in this project. ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

Trump didn't like Ramaswamy until he saw him sticking up for child rapists and their enablers. He hated the Ivy League until Cornell had a prominent fraternity gang-rape story in the news. He's not just a rapist, not just a serial rapist—he's a rape *enthusiast,* and it's why Republicans love him.

That it'll fail because they lack sufficient consolidation and centralized control does not make it trivial that the president of the United States is trying to steal elections and produce an illegitimate sham Congress. It is open rebellion against the Constitution and morally tantamount to treason.

Yglesias shouldn't be welcome in any democracy-oriented gathering. Primarily for moral reasons. But also because he's FUCKING WRONG. Immigration ISN'T as good an issue for Trump anymore precisely because officials like Chris Van Hollen & folks like the Minnesota protesters didn't follow his advice.

Republicans aren’t doubling down on this grotesque apology for a child rapist primarily because they think will help Ramaswamy win or even because they think it will be effective; they are doing it because deep down, at the core of their being, Republicans believe child rape is good.

THIS PART. I know I could get their job and do it better than them, but the same could not be said in reverse. Meanwhile, the state is DYING to hand them the reins.

It really needs to be emphasized that the woman Vivek is featuring in these videos fled with an accused & indicted child rapist and successfully helped him avoid trial for 20+ years.

Elon Musk threatens Congress.

A president saying clearly and with his full chest “I am directing the Department of Justice” to do … anything, would have been a five-alarm scandal in previous years. Now? It’s just a Tuesday.

If this is accurate, Elon lied about not having control over Starshield, and he lied about the administration making the decision. More importantly, why is a private citizen even *able* to make decisions that could hinder US military operations?

I guess this is CBS “News” now.

yesterday musk said that companies that "overstate claims about their product" will be banned from advertising on X, today he says that his cars are alive

@charmpatterns.bsky.social My kingdom for this hood!

Slightly chilly train journey today would be beautifully enhanced if I were wearing a late c18th cosy red wool cloak, quilted petticoats and a hand warming muff. Sadly I am not so sensibly clothed so will have to make do with train coffee @metmuseum.org #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

What's weird to me is that this is the exact kind of talk that leveled the Bush administration and it took Democrats a decade to figure out you can just... use it again.

Ossoff: "Foster kids don't have lobbyists or a super PAC. Neither do the women subjected to medical abuse in ICE detention. Neither do the female inmates sexually abused by the warden and the chaplain in their federal prison ... they deserve leaders who see them"

Meta also fucked with the Brazilian elections in a very similar way

I swear to god the administration is going down the list of reasons pundits said it wasn’t fascism and doing them all one by one
