How is People’s magazine doing better coverage than most legacy media? people.com/former-miss-...
i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.
chat I don’t think doubling down on this ad is working out real well for vivek

60 people have now died in ICE custody since Trump's return to office. Our country is set to spend $268 BILLION on mass deportations and detentions through the end of Trump's term. Instead of death and cruelty, imagine what we could have invested that money in instead?

There are only two explanations for the NYT's habit of presenting GOP operatives and donors as true swing voters: 1. Their reporters and editors are somehow incapable of running a simple Google searches, showing just a staggering level of journalistic incompetence 2. They want to the GOP to win

Once again a well established, renown and famous artist with nothing to lose is entranced by the slop and thus yanks the ladder up from all those below him. Not surprised, heard this before but it's still dissapointing - and we won't forget he's done this once the bubble bursts.

That's not where this will end. On his last day in office, Trump is going to issue a blanket pardon for EVERY POLITICAL APPOINTEE IN THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH for all crimes committed between January 20, 2025 and January 20, 2029. Mark my words.

all of this has always been about getting back at the uppity women who wouldn’t fuck them
“Palantir cofounder and CEO Alex Karp states ‘AI will undermine the influence of highly educated, often female voters and give it to working class men. We have feminine energy running our cities and our courts,’ he complained.”

Now that phase one of @hcrichardson.bsky.social's wonderful “250 to 250" project has wrapped, I'll share all the videos (one per day) for which I wrote scripts. Some were recorded nearly word for word; others underwent much-needed editing for clarity and brevity. Tonight: the Head Start program.

The level of hatred and harassment that Trump is directing at Ilhan Omar is appalling. He's inciting some disturbed person to commit violence against her. The entire Republican Party already has blood on its hands, and it's eager for more.
a spectacle of fascism as Trump demands Ilhan Omar resign and says Democrats have conceded her seat, and the 20-something dude bros behind him leap up and start cheering

Omg I’ve never heard Yglesias’ weasel voice until now
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"

Jared Kushner allegedly moved money from a secret Gulf-funded bank account to a warlord, a mercenary and a one-time hit man while Dutch spies watched his phone, according to an explosive new book.

This is the singularity to worry about—CBS, CNN, X, TikTok etc all essentially controlled by the same ethically bankrupt owners.
News just broke that Elon Musk made a $1 billion investment in the Ellison family's Skydance, which owns CBS and CNN. Anoher step toward right-wing "media capture," as I wrote about recently in my Stop the Presses newsletter.
