No way…

the routine, pay for play pardons are all by themselves one of the worst corruption scandals in american history!

Trump: "We just extinguished a nuclear bomb from the worst country in the world, and our gas prices -- it's a small thing to pay -- our gas prices are lower than under Obama." (Iran never had a nuke and gas prices are not lower than they were 10 years ago)

this is so obviously correct it is deeply bizarre and corrosive how many people who should know better are unwilling to simply say it

NYT: “Current and former military officials describe Mr. Hegseth’s tumultuous tenure as a persistent distraction that has pulled top leaders away from focusing on these priorities and fed a climate of mistrust in the top ranks.”

After President Donald Trump told attendees at the Republican midterm convention Thursday night that "we want honesty in our elections," he led them in a pledge to "cheat like hell" and "go out and vote" in the midterm elections. https://to.pbs.org/4yTjfzl

So we changed the Department of Defense to the Department of War and then started a not war for the purposes of defense?

This is stochastic terrorism. Ted Cruz is an extremist encouraging violence.

DEAN: What's the tariff on bananas? LUTNICK: Generally 10% DEAN: Walmart has already increased the cost of bananas by 8% LUTNICK: If you build in America, there is no tariff DEAN: We cannot build bananas in America

Say @raskin.house.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov? Do you think you could ask the FBI why this letter John Solomon used in his latest Russian propaganda, which he claims was written by the FBI Director, was instead written by White House spox. May be a crime by Ingle. justthenews.com/sites/defaul...

The Trump administration pushed out thousands of veteran U.S. Forest Service staff. An "extraordinary" fire season is testing those who are left.

When a politician dies we see a lot of hagiographies about them. If you mention they were a terrible person IRL, you get chastised. My feeling? If you don't want people to talk shit about you after you die, don't be shitty when you're alive.

Lindsey Graham spent the last decade of his life in public service as a US Senator, trying hard to be remembered as an enemy of the Constitution who worked to destroy American democracy and exhibited occasional signs that he knew why that was bad but kept doing it anyway. I will honor his choice.

He never deleted it.

UPDATE: CNBC responds, says it only includes the disclosure of their financial relationship with Kalshi when it is "directly relevant to the story" These are examples of stories where CNBC determined it wasn't "relevant" to disclose that the company invests in Kalshi and gets paid for new customers

This alone should be a decade-defining political scandal resulting in prison sentences.

just shockingly hostile to the people who live in DC

Press conference on Monday

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @dccartoonist.bsky.social ) #BribeForceOne

The other day I noted the only way Trump would keep paying Event Strategies to put together humiliating public events is if it were a vehicle for corruption. Today, Natural Resource Dems released a report substantiating that corruption. emptywheel.net/2026/06/29/t...

What’s wild about Trump’s stupid racism fair is that somehow there are even fewer people in the National Mall during it than there are on normal days.

So this is what you call a toll that you do not want to call a toll….

undeniably good optics: signing a war treaty in Versailles

I was told people using small boats to travel to better lands to escape social dysfunction was bad?

The law is salvageable, though, if these people face punishment. They dragged my family through hell despite a jury of our peers saying repeatedly they wouldn't indict protesters. A perversion of justice like this needs to be met with real justice for the prosecutors who broke the law.

The idea that this just happened to the Broadview 6 — forcing grand juries to indict by cajoling them in an elevator, vouching to the grand jury, and telling "no" votes to leave if they don't want to indict — is nuts. It's probably happening everywhere. And it means the law as we know it is dead.

Can’t be repeated enough…

We all complain about headlines on here, so we should be ready to praise this one, which gets it exactly right (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2026/06/02/u...

I guess NBA refs are allowed to refuse challenges now

CNN reports that Michael Caputo, the GOP operative/Roger Stone buddy who Mueller investigated for making false statements to Congress in 2017, sent this letter seeking $2.7 million from Trump's news fund. Caputo calls himself and his family "survivors of the illegal Russigate investigation."

its crazy how literally everything is worse than it was two years ago

the 2024 election was probably the easiest combined morality/IQ test ever created and yet so many Americans not only failed it, but are now acting like they’re the victims after doing so

Bari Weiss’ 60 Minutes is now whitewashing effing Patriot Front. …which is where this was always headed

In 1979, Mattel sold toy Battlestar Galactica fighter ships that fired a tiny spring-loaded "torpedo." One 4-year old choked on it, and the entire line of torpedo toys was recalled and never sold again.

People focus too much on the binary of dictatorship and democracy, we are still going to live in a country with elections and peaceful transfers of power a decade from now, it'll just much more corrupt and poorer and less functional and more violent and less fair by every metric.

Is there someone dead in the lobby or is there someone in custody? Was the person armed or not? Did he make it into the ballroom or not? Usually there should be a pretty wide grace period on finding this out, but there are literally hundreds of reporters in the room and nobody knows shit.

I bet Jalen Brunson is so surprised when he loses after scamming everyone for 99% of the game.

The populations of many of our closest allies now believe it’s better to depend upon China than the U.S. under Trump. MAGA, MAGA.👇

She really said teen birth "crashing" is an existential threat to humanity. She typed those words, and hit the Post button.

This must hit so hard if you’re incredibly stupid.

im sorry but this is so fucking funny god help us

NEW: Trump accepted $37m worth of donated steel for his WH ballroom project from the Luxembourg-based company ArcelorMittal. Days later, the WH made adjustments to Trump's tariffs that could benefit ArcelorMittal.

What if the United States had a Congress?

This should be an enormous scandal but most people don't give a shit because we live in a dismal era where ethics, morality, basic respect are all demeaned as "woke" by a toxic culture of grifter corruption personified by Trump and imbecilic DraftKings/crypto bros.
