Idk man Arabs definitely have a winning record against guys named "Robert F Kennedy"

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

@repsuhas.bsky.social hey man, constituent here. Would be awesome if you weren't constantly ending up on these lists along with the biggest assholes in your caucus. Folks may start to draw conclusions.

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

Anti-trans bigots are coming to NWSL games looking to provoke violence or other incidents that could go viral. This is the back-up plan: harass and endanger anyone who stands up to them. NWSL is going to have to contend with this. Kicking the can down the road will put too many fans at risk.

A helpfully clear exchange here Hasan: "So your argument is that [Minnesota ICE protesters] should stay at home because immigration is a salient issue for Donald Trump. Opposing ICE is only going to help Trump. Wait until we win the election in 2028." Yglesias: "Yes that is what I would have said"

As we approach the midterms, remember that the Alt National Park Service is a merch sales operation claiming without evidence to be a group of federal employees, and is not a genuine source of news about elections of any kind. Please get your election info from a local, reputable source.

Usually tough at a Wizards game to be a bigger embarrassment than the events on the court, but ol' Britt wouldn't ever let that stop her. And the Zards won!

I mean it'd be cool if we could just call this shit what it is (Bloomberg, not Carl): "stock manipulation"

"Capex is the only hard number investors have for how fast Optimus and Cybercab are actually being built, and cutting the guide by $5 billion six months after raising it by $5 billion looks less like discipline and more like the ramp slipping." @bloomberg.com $TSLA www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Man when I tell you that the folks working the Mercury Blvd. Pizza Hut in Hampton, VA ca. 1990 were SICK OF MY SHIT

Peggy Flanagan@peggyflanagan.bsky.social

Is anyone interested in learning how many personal pan pizzas I earned through the Pizza Hut BOOK IT! Program in second grade?

You better believe we also got those rubber Land Before Time hand puppets and the cassette album of the Pizza Hut-sponsored Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles live concert tour

Is "eat shit, you syphilitic racist old bitch" a good answer

Even if this were viable as a concept (that there's an afterlife; that it allows conversations with others; that enslavers are going the same place as you), who cares? Oh, are you mad at me, Ben Franklin? Tough shit.

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.

We’re back with our second story about how Trump’s purge of the FBI killed a sweeping bribery probe in D.C. This time, we take you to South Carolina, where two powerful politicians escaped scrutiny: Sen. Lindsey Graham and Rep. James Clyburn. THREAD 👇

60 Minutes is giving extensive coverage to the explosively funny docu-fiction cinematic event that everyone is talking about right now. That's right... Ali G: Who Iz I?

How excited was he to dunk on Vance and OSU at the same time

Acyn@acyn.bsky.social

El-Sayed on JD Vance: First of all, Ohio State owes that boy a refund because he clearly didn't get anything from his education there…

Cool. Cut off their power, water, sewer, telecom, and brick up the end of their driveway so they can't enter public streets.

“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?” Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

You know how you can make up a perfect argument in your head in the shower where you completely eviserate your opponent because they aren’t a real person? This is what that looks like in real life. He’s been cooking this one internally for months and saw a chance his chance to pop off. Good for him.

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

In a sane world, Marisa would be running the national desk at a major publication. Consistently tremendous reporting.

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Q: Will you disavow the Muslim Brotherhood? El-Sayed: Yes. Why are you asking the question? Do you assume that I wouldn’t? Q: Yes, because I have not heard you disavow them yet. El-Sayed: Have you disavowed them? I have not heard you disavow them yet.

Recent staff departures during Trump's second term: — Katie Zacharia — Kimberly Guilfoyle — Kristi Noem — Pam Bondi — Tulsi Gabbard — Karoline Leavitt — Lori Chavez-DeRemer

Zacharia's tenure included more televised interviews about how bad her press briefing went (at least two that I'm aware) than actual press briefings (one) lmao
