So very many ways in which that is a lie. And that’s not even getting to the point that even IF people weren’t saying it, it would still be happening.

The fact that he's having to campaign in Nebraska says it all.

Travis Meier’s run in the Twin Cities Marathon — while carrying a canoe — was a show of support for the Boundary Waters and a protest against a proposal to mine copper and nickel near the wilderness.

If your newscast says Hastert was 'tied to' a child sex abuse scandal, you're failing your listeners.

lol one of our website designers used our organization's entire monthly claude credits yesterday and now half the company doesn't know how to do their jobs. it's october 2nd.

Neagley, the character: small. "Neagley," the show: big. The latest streaming numbers now up at The Data Stream. Subscribe to get them in your email every week, yeah?

You should have to articulate the “objections” in order to shut it down. But this terrible knockoff of the pastor/dad from Footloose, couldn’t even do that. (John Lithgow would be shamed. You learned nothing.)

Republicans sent the Senate home this week without taking ANY real action to: - End Donald Trump's Iran war - Lower costs for American families - Regulate AI

Your country elected a rapist to be president. It says much that the voices of people who decry it, like you, are ignored. His current unpopularity with many is rooted in high prices, not indignation for his many crimes or his lack of humanity.

Peter Thiel, JD Vance’s longtime mentor, is a perfect example of what’s gone wrong in tech America. And we’re seeing the real consequences of that worldview every single day.

Russ Vought just sent a rescissions request to Congress, signaling he intends to illegally impound funds. The $810 million highlighted in this “request” (but this is a pretext to just illegally impound the funds) is not the exhaustive list of many billions of dollars he’s impounding this year.

Amnesty International calls for ICE to be abolished

This is the Stolen Neighbors Quilt. Each of the 11,000 squares represents a person taken by ICE in Minnesota.

What's being described there has its own named mathematical law. It's called the Law Of Adverse Selection, and there isn't a single actuary who isn't intimately familiar with that law and why you never, ever *ever* f**k with it.

JD Vance is using AI to kick hundreds of thousands of people off health insurance. These are AI death panels.

Those who ban the press and start state run media are never the good guys in history.

Fat Bear Week is upon us. @explore.org

This, my friends, is gaslighting. Congress is the top three or four of all time only on abdicating its responsibilities. 

Russia Aims to Inject Chaos Into Elections, U.S. Intelligence Finds

There are escalating warnings from Poland that Russia is preparing to widen its war against Ukraine, with "accidental" missile and drone strikes on NATO territory.

Some of the videos are being pushed with hashtags including #midterms2026 and #AllDemocratsAreCriminals. You won't see reports on any of this on major US corporate outlets, of course.

Betting apps are the data centers of the Internet: wasteful, destructive parasites that ruin people's lives and contribute nothing worthwhile to society at large.

Polish armed forces launch air operations as Russian drones strike targets across Ukraine.

NOAA just announced that this summer was the hottest on record in the United States.

If someone asked me, “What’s your least favorite thing in the world?” I’d have to say, “Sunday morning talk shows.”
