One way you can be sure "cancel culture" hasn't gone far enough is that Bill Clinton is still out there, not cancelled... www.thedailybeast.com/trump-nemesi...

The first Dem presidential candidate to propose nationalizing this guy’s companies will likely get my vote in 2028.

Brazil elected Lula again tonight. Poll averages appear to have had Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro effectively tied, maybe Bolsonaro up 1 on Lula — so not sure why the markets had this race at 80-20 Bolsonaro. Markets might miss big in the U.S. midterms in 9 days too.

El-Sayed: "People like Vance think America is too small for some of us. I think America is big enough. America has been big enough include people whose families came, were here before anybody else showed up, or who were brought here despite themselves. His view of America is small -- small like him"

Noah Adams, a longtime host of NPR’s “All Things Considered” whose quiet baritone and empathetic ear brought listeners stories not often heard on U.S. airwaves, has died. He was 84. nyti.ms/4ieS8b1

Grateful to @vanhollen.senate.gov for demanding answers to this incredibly troubling pattern

Bass supporters: You cool with this? A Caruso-McDonnell coalition running against the ghost of George Gascón? What gives? www.latimes.com/california/s...

When all is said and done, Ramaswamy is going to have to become a verb or an adjective or something. Wikipedia pages, Merriam definitions, Chat GPT algorithms are needed to describe new levels of despicable. Can @dansavage.bsky.social please get on the case? www.mediaite.com/media/tv/cnn...

A symptom of my advanced TDS is that I find myself agreeing with James Carville. On this at least. I am grateful for my ongoing anger, worry, and fear about the damage he is doing; and frankly I remain suspicious of anyone who seems to be immune to TDS. www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2026/1...

When Democrats retake Congress, they should reclaim the phrase “Russian Hoax.” Make it the title of every oversight hearing investigating Trump’s relationship with Putin. The phrase deserves a second life, with or without irony. nypost.com/2026/10/21/u...

I’ve been released from IDF custody with a “warning,” apparently because of my public profile (I told them I wasn’t even a congressmember yet, just a nominee). But several dozen rabbis & participants harvesting olives with me are still in detention.

Emphasizing again that we cannot treat this as just business as usual. This is the President of the United States openly attacking an entire ethnic group.

It has been three hours and we still do not have access to the account

The real reason Trump nixed the livestreaming of the Fort Hood shooter's execution www.kenklippenstein.com/p/why-trump-...

He has turned the entire US government into a bad episode of his s-ty reality TV show. You’re fired etc. Neil Postman himself couldn’t have predicted this in his wildest, prescient imagination

I don’t know who is winning or losing the war, but he hasn’t lost his sense of humor, which seems somewhat hopeful…. #SlavaUkraini

Trump didn't curse the Dodgers. They cursed themselves by shaking his hand.

Ludicrous framing here from @nytimes.com. No serious Dems ever thought these would be slam dunks. And it's premature to let a centrist group get in a self-interested shot like this before we even know if these candidates will actually fare worse in the elections than other ones. Indefensible.

I suspect Putin offered Elon the untapped lithium reserves in the Donbas long ago.

“There’s disappointment that on this issue, the governor hasn’t been willing to take a risk for a very important part of the California population [...] Even in a progressive state like California, immigration sometimes still continues to be this third rail." www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

#AbolishICE(RideAlongs). Seriously. This is NOT journalism. It’s worse than reality TV. It’s dehumanizing propaganda. It's despicable, and its sole utility will be as historical record of a dying media industry's contribution to moral panic and ascendent fascism. This is irredeemably shameful stuff.

More Black Mirror Twilight Zone stuff in Los Angeles as Police Protective League attacks Raman (?!) on response to ICE raids.... nypost.com/2026/10/05/u...

A fun detail: Poirot repeatedly describes the Macho Jesus his leetle grey cells dreamed up as like a “Mustang.” You might think this is merely weird and homoerotic, but it’s actually linked to a bit of misinformation evangelicals like to use to retcon Jesus as a high-T alpha male.

omg kevin spacey played the part of bakker in the 1990 tv movie “fall from grace” #ff @erikloomis.bsky.social

This Jeff Tweedy, Woody Guthrie, New York Times remix thing was a terrible idea and terribly executed. Truly an example of enshittification. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/05/o...

What about these sidewalks in subpar conditions?

I just saw this commercial air 4 times back-to-back in a commercial break from a years-old episode of Halloween Baking Championship. WHO IS THIS MESSAGING FOR? HOW IS SEEING THIS VILE PIECE OF PROPAGANDA *4 TIMES IN A ROW* SUPPOSED TO WIN MY VOTE? P.S. Fuck the parent who put their kid in this.
