Remember, you can't spell R-F-K without the al-phabet.

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."

Apparently, she does too.

Vivek Ramaswamy's wife: Apparently, Vivek does not support women. Apparently, he is pro-child abuse. Apparently, he doesn't respect doctors.

I hope you're all aware he wants an indoor pool because he wants to ogle young women in swimsuits. There's no way in hell he'd actually be seen in a pool.

The New York Times@nytimes.com

President Trump has pushed to move briefings out of the White House press room. Aides say he wants an indoor swimming pool instead. nyti.ms/4eoW3AV

Well, at least we now know what AIPAC's position on Representative Omar is.

Truthout@truthout.org

Chuck Schumer — one of the most powerful Democrats in the country — has not issued statements to the press or through his social media channels about the administration’s attack on Ilhan Omar, which critics have described as a five alarm fire for the state of democracy in the U.S.

It's not even clear to me whether most of this was in English.

oh my god this interview was a disaster for Zacharia. I've never seen Hannity do someone who works for Trump like this

Have been researching a very specific EPCOT Center attraction and am resorting to shouting into the ether for help. So please ignore this if you don't know or care about EPCOT Center. But if you do...

Should have sent Verlander's daughter out to get Max Scherzer off the mound today. He might have listened.

I want to watch the Musk documentary. I have zero interest in watching ANY 4 hour movie in a single sitting. This will have to be a stream at home in pieces kind of thing.

"Hell yeah, the world will fear out might! Look at how easily we invaded Venezuela!" "Alright! Iran is next! Let's go free them from tyranny or whatever and take their oil too!" "Ok, ok, that Iran thing didn't work out as planned...how about Cuba? They're more like a Venezuela situation, right??"

How petty and small do you have to be to be a leader of one of the most powerful countries in the world and whine about a mayor of another country's cities? It'd be like if Trump whined about the Mayor of London or something...oh...wait...

Netanyahu directly attacks Zohran Mamdani (and his wife) from the UNGA podium, calling him the "antisemitic mayor of New York City," parroting The Free Press's stories about Rama Duwaji, tying Mamdani to Hasan Piker, and claiming the mayor is "buddies" with Hamas.

Oh, fuck you, @massgovernor.bsky.social. Why the fuck of all the stupid ideas would you choose this one. You are a joke and you should have been primaried from the left.

Mike Minogue wants a MA gas tax hiatus because his party has fucked up the world's oil supplies. The gas tax pays for the MBTA (to buy gas among other things!). Our public transit and infrastructure is already criminally underfunded. Maybe Mike should learn how the world works first.

There's not enough room to the left for that to say "Trump-Kennedy Center". So he's already accepted that's not its name, huh?

After consideration, I too have decided to cancel my part in Ed Sheeran's tour. I want to state clearly that at no time was I involved in removing Macklemore from the tour. I am also taking the extra step to sever all ties I have with Robert Kraft. I will not be taking questions at this time.

Dear Politicians, Have you seen Mitch McConnell today? Nobody in his life gives a flying fuck about him or his well being. If they did, he never would have been wheeled out like a totem. Do you have enough self respect to know when to retire because nobody else in your life will respect you.

I know Macklemore sorta likes Ed Sheeran still as a friend...but it'd be comical if he booked competing venues in every city that he was going to tour in and pulled all the ticket sales away.

If you want China to beat us in every possible discipline, then you can't find a faster way to do it without just going around executing international students tomorrow.

Michael Clemens@mclem.org

The US President's new proposal to tax international students has been approved by the White House for release this week. It's an unprecedented $100,000 tax on int'l grads who stay to work after graduation on Optional Practical Training (most grads do), a crucial bridge to remaining by any channel.

When the Democrats take back the House, should they draft a single impeachment that outlines every single fucking impeachable thing the President has done? Or should they draft an impeachment document for each of them separately and when the Senate refuses to convict, they send another one.

Did you know a hurricane hit Hawaii a few days ago and one of the islands has lost its major port for food and fuel and need help? Our media is a joke.

Messing with Google's search AI can be fun. Sometimes I just put absolute nonsense in the search bar to see how it tries to tie it all together for me.

A lifetime of lying out of your ass and being told by everyone around you that they believe you and you're a genius leads to this pathetic excuse of an elderly puke.

Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."

I'm telling you. This guy's stock is rising QUICK.

DrKaz@drkaz.bsky.social

The NFL hasn't been a factor in my fandom for the entire off-season. I almost forgot Drake Maye is on the Patriots. I discount Tatum not because of whatever CHB says but because he was out of mind for a year until like 4 months ago. Payton Tolle is the talk of the town though. The guy is fun.

Part of the reason these questions are asked is because Democratic leadership has had FUCK ALL to say about anything lately. They let Trump do and say whatever he wants. They put out zero stances and trumpet absolutely nothing. She could be asking "How do you react to Jeffries' proposals?".

Raskin after Kristen Welker plays him clips of controversial Hasan Piker comments and asks him to react to them: "I think all of that is an irrelevant distraction"

Without clean water, there is no life. Life is guaranteed due process by the Fifth Amendment. Ergo, clean water is covered by the Constitution. Anyone who decides otherwise doesn't give a shit about the Constitution or those that live, and drink water to live, under it.

Occasional evidence of talent from the Boston Legacy tonight. But some of that defensive passing and clears....YIKES.

How did Lander and Yu do so well against two of the top state Senate Democrats and all the articles are about Wu? Maybe Wu was much less of a factor and the fact that the state Senate has been a bastion against change and progressive improvement in the state is the real theme of the primary.
