thanks for your time

There is truly nothing you could do to make fun of the NYT covering the Obama Cheesecake Factory quip instead of Trump being accused of rape. It’s completely beyond parody.

yes, lay the groundwork for investigations with teeth targeting the Republican billionaire media conglomerates in 2029 oh they’ll bias coverage against you in 2028? what else is new, how’s that working out for them in 2026

this is something Dems can just hammer on for the next two years televised hearings every week about Epstein, Epstein, Epstein make the drumbeat so loud the media doesn’t have a choice in covering it

Imagine the outrage if he said El-Sayed loved The Cheesecake Factory

I’m Moby Dick for Halloween

This is not an unfortunate byproduct of MAGA politics. This is the entire goal.

There’s no discussion of potential penalties in this article, but if people don’t go to jail for flagrant illegality like this, it will keep happening. For companies like Google, fines are just another cost of doing business. Something to toss on the balance sheet and weigh against profits.

absolute flaming asshole behaviour from Trump again. WAC:

🧵 Matt Yglesias is one of the biggest reasons the Democratic Party leadership is so feckless, cowardly, and lazy. I'm not exaggerating. Yglesias is often a featured speaker at private Democratic Party events, despite almost always being wrong. Let's discuss...

"can't even sell it to an Australian" is a devastating burn

I understand the freakout here but honestly this one reads as a sign of weakness to me a) peltola is going to win by more than the second dan sullivan's margin b) this argument is pathetic, and if their strategy is 'throw pathetic shit at the wall and hope something sticks' I'm less worried

hmmmm...not sure one person giving half a billion dollars to one party is a great sign of a healthy political system just not quite on board with that

I am sorry but the transit workers union allying with *donald trump* to protect *horse drawn carriages* is beyond parody

I'm happy someone is smart enough to realize you can't let only Republicans play this game.

nobody stopped Musk before he broke the state monopoly on violence, so now either he goes or the nation-state does

Far too much of this going on in the neighbourhood chats at election time

literally illegal

does feel like an era of video gaming is ending right now

John Roberts [speaking slowly]: ... so long as you don't take a Scrooge McDuck moneybag with a dollar sign on it, in exchange for a pardon, while saying you are doing it, you are good [wink-WINK]. Trump: I take this moneybag with a dollar sign on it in exchange for a pardon. I do an Article III.

The exonerative tense is so gross and inexcusable and I have to hope journalists writing this way feel at least some shame.

PAXTON: hey we're catching a lot of shit for holding our final rally at the alamo, the site of an infamous Texas doomed last stand TRUMP:

I know a fair number of people who cut off their parents and in every case it was something like this. "I'll put up with your idiotic bullshit so long as it doesn't directly threaten the lives of my friends and family" is a pretty fair standard imo

I AM CURRENTLY CRYING LAUGHING www.nytimes.com/2026/10/16/u...

Have to be clear just how dangerous this is. If it continues, it effectively removes constitutional rights from an entire class of people. Imagine you had to fear that if you criticize the regime, any error on paperwork filled out by your family decades ago could be used to strip your citizenship.

The Biden administration didn’t take Musk’s Russia-assisting intervention seriously. Treated it as something that could be addressed with contract language. Big mistake. In 2024, the US awarded SpaceX additional contracts worth billions of dollars. The next govt should go the oppoaite direction.

wrote on saturday that trump was not going to let democrats avoid the question of impeachment and here we are with an offense that would have had a president impeached, removed and *at least* exiled if it had happened at any point prior to now.

In my mind the defining feature of Trump II is that is ✨actually✨ a kakistocracy. RFK Jr and Russ Vought have very little in common politically, but they do share one essential quality: they are absolutely the worst person alive for the jobs they have.

Donald Trump called one of his political opponents a Nazi in his 2000 presidential campaign

"When a Republican does something bad, we should not lose sight of who's fault this REALLY is: Democrats."

300k tons is ~2.2m barrels, give or take. russia typically (pre ukraine exploding the refineries) exported ~1-1.1m barrels per day. excellent work president deals
