This @nytimes.com headline pretty much says it all about Trump's Republican base: "In Islamophobic Rant, Trump Seeks to Stir Republican Base in Michigan" Inadvertent truth-telling by the normally Trump-apologist NYT.

"The discussions served two purposes: to broach the possibility of A.I. consciousness...and to learn how Anthropic...might apply centuries of human moral wisdom to its models..." Centuries of human moral wisdom have always resulted in justice and peace, right? www.nytimes.com/2026/09/29/u...

Here’s a video of a dog welcoming its owner home from the front – because we need something to keep us sane.

Such a beautiful place.

Yeesh.

This is brilliant. Well, except the part about the watery beers in Lansing. The Great Beer State has some great brews. Again, apologizing for the insensitivity of my Congressman Jack Bergman. Hoping to replace him in the fall. www.youtube.com/shorts/zB2ZH...

Sorry to hear about Jeff Bezos's rocket exploding prematurely. A good technique to prevent that from happening is to try thinking about something you find totally unarousing or even repulsive, like giving workers a living wage or paying a fair share of taxes.

The tech bros gave us crypto currency that isn’t currency, artificial intelligence that isn’t intelligence, and prediction markets that are inside-trader scams. On the other hand, they have given us gigantic data centers that employ no one and destroy communities. So there’s that.

No nonsense mom.

You really cannot overestimate the level of status trauma a lot of white Americans experienced at the election of Barack Obama and how much of our politics is still influenced by it bsky.app/profile/beau...

Line from this morning's "The Morning" Newsletter from the @nytimes.com: "Paddling upstream: Take a journey through the pristine Boundary Waters of northern Minnesota." They forgot to add, "while it's still pristine."

Hasn’t whined about needing a ballroom to feel safe

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

To be fair, most of the good reporters were probably boycotting.

Pure joy. 😊❤️

Big win for Michigan and MI Atty. Gen. Dana Nessel -- unanimous SCOTUS ruling that the lawsuit belongs in state court. A long way to go, however. #shutdownline5 apnews.com/article/supr...

Russia gave Iran intelligence so they can attack us. Trump lifts sanctions in return. I once thought that talk of his being a compromised Russian asset was a conspiracy theory, but now I'm not so sure. So much of what he has done in the past year has benefited Putin. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/12/u...

“We voted for this guy. We all voted, every single one of us,” Daylin said. “But we never expected something like this to happen. It’s just inhumane. It’s inhumane, and it’s wrong. And I think most people who voted for him did not expect this, and a l... #leopardsatemyface #Politics #News

Sam Sifton writes in the today's NYT "The Morning" newsletter, "It's kind of unbelievable we were once ruled by these people." Seriously? We are STILL ruled by these KINDS of people. At least they arrest theirs. Here, we let them be president and cabinet members. @nytimes.com

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated. I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

This is the law. Passed down from our Founding Fathers, to ensure our military upholds its oath to the Constitution — not a king. Given Stephen Miller is directing much of a military policy, he should buff up on the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

Sadly, even more relevant today than it was 56 years ago:

@nytimes.com, this is how you report the No Kings events. As the "paper of record," you should already know this, but just in case you forgot:
