1. Not sure when a new, on-the-record rape allegation against a sitting president isn’t considered news — especially considering Trump was found liable by a jury in a similar case — but it was ignored by most mainstream media outlets

Hell yeah, Marisa! Excellent work, as always.

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.

Our internet, how we get all of our information, now has banned using the word "sex" without writing it like "s*x" but our kids are being inundated with people falling off rollercoasters, being mauled by Tigers, and jumping off buildings. It creates a culture afraid of people but in love with death.

This is sexual violence as a form of terrorism. It is political violence and it is chilling and horrific, and AOC was absolutely right to be terrified that the goons (now pardoned) laying siege to the capital would rape her if they found her. Small changes won't fix this. FLIP THE TABLE NOW

For all who are troubled by these times (an apt description of, well, Bluesky)....might I offer the comment section of this post as a romp and respite? The wheat may not be delicious, but by gods the inspired replies absolutely are.

Shredded wheat is an insane concept. "Yeah I want a fucking log of hay in a box. For my breakfast." Fuck outta here. Crazy assholes.

There's no real point in arguing with his mouth noises, particularly not when preaching to the Bluesky choir, but this is *noteworthy* nonsense. If the revenue were real (it's not), then it would be revenue *of the United States government,* equally available to a Democratic Congress to spend.

Trump: "Because of tariffs, we are taking in hundreds of billions of dollars of profits. It's one of the reasons I can offer, if Republicans win the House and Senate, $5,000 to every adult. We can do it and the Democrats can't, because the Democrats don't have any income."

You don't have an inalienable right to be an antisocial dipshit because you're doomscrolling all day and it makes you feel terrible. There are no qualifiers to this. You are not released from the obligation to try to be decent just because Elon Musk is lighting the world on fire.

This. I feel wildly outofproportion distraught over Dolly followed too swiftly by Tim. But when I see the country's problems multiplied by the world's problems and then gingerly place my personal problems atop...these losses sent the whole edifice crumbling. Be gentle to each other today y'all 💕

“I was asked not to mention the Times at all. I’m choosing not to honor that norm, b/c silence abt how accountability journalism gets suppressed is itself a form of suppression.” Read the back story of how @nytimes.com and @thebulwark.com killed @adambonica.bsky.social’s piece. What a mf badass.

This is what I mean when I talk about the Fantasy of the Optional Pandemic, where the virus was erased from the equation and mitigation measures were always portrayed as an avoidable choice. Headlines about what actually happened are never even acknowledged.

one thing that infuriates me so much about this shit is that they act as if the women making the allegations are being massively rewarded for their actions when in fact most of what they face for coming forward is being called liars and harassed by assholes like them

There’s really only one conclusion here: Trump cannot live in the realm of reality. He pathologically makes claims that cannot be supported and acts as if he is delusional. If all elections are rigged, as he says, how did he win in 2016 in 2024? He is a danger to this country.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

WOW - Trump crashes out & cuts his interview w/ Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged "You're either crooked or you're stupid. I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her" "I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads

this is true. there's a practical question abt how much value there is in doing it without the votes to convict. but it hurt Trump a lot. There's simply no question about this.

For one thing, the idea that the first Trump impeachments accomplished nothing, and even backfired by creating a rally-around-the-leader effect, is bunk. www.offmessage.net/p/the-revisi...

Trump didn't settle a lawsuit. He dropped the lawsuit so there's no lawsuit to settle. He's just stealing this money. The lawsuit was just for show so he could say he settled a lawsuit.

"Democratic governors and state legislators need to realize that this is no longer about fairness; it’s about fighting back so that they are not engineered out of the House forever. And I get that Dems don’t have the stomach for this kind of warfare--- find it."

The rule appears to be that redistricting is always legal when it benefits Republicans and never legal when it benefits Democrats.

that the virginia supreme court allowed the referendum to go forward - they could have stopped it - and then ruled this way really gives up the game the only difference between now and then is that the we know the result and they didn't like it

Not yelling at Dave here, but the fundamental issue is that the bedrock assumption of our country's politics is that conservatives losing faith in the system is seen as an indictment of the system, and liberals losing faith in the system is seen as an indictment of liberals.

This is interesting because it challenges two widely held political assumptions: 1) that people love it when everything at the supermarket is at least $8.99 and 2) that the easiest way to win voters over is to go on TV every day and say that you need to build a big event space or you'll die.
