Not to ruin anyone’s Sunday afternoon, but Brazilians are voting for president today. We’ll start getting returns at 4pm ET, and, based on the results of the first round it’d be a clear surprise if Lula survives against Bolsonaro — even if polls have tightened in the last two weeks.

I can't believe my dog of war robot is being used for dark ends 😱

Seems like the Trump White House agrees with everyone who says the Trump White House had committed countless crimes

The misogyny, it burns (Also in what world is this addled dork an avatar of masculinity 😅)

Why Matt in particular is a awful person to have so much clout with elites is because he comes at “follow the data, the vaunted data” and then just lies

HASC Ranking Member @adamsmith.house.gov talks with Jen Rubin at @contrariannews.org about the vast number of possibilities for oversight in the House Armed Services Committee in the coming Congress, including "all the illegal activities ... but stopping the Iran war would be job one."

AI firms want you to believe their fraud bot is alive so they won’t be held responsible for the fraud bot’s crimes. But there is no gray area here, they hold the on/off switches in their very human, very prosecutable hands.

Nothing says rugged independence like a Socialist bailout.

This is an interesting project that shows links among donors who give to GOP candidates and also Democrat city councilors in liberal Portland

I can’t believe Epstein’s best friend doesn’t care about child rape.

The Russians hacked Jared's phone. Then Dutch cyberspies then reverse-engineered that hack, giving them unprecedented access to his world. Bananas story in @vanityfair.com

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

The IDF says Brad Lander was arrested because he engaged in… “AN UNCOORDINATED OLIVE HARVEST.” Gift: wapo.st/3VOlhT5

friends, do you have any insight into 'Chiefs for Change,' a national school superintendents group that's built up a lot of influence and seems to be linked to a wave of urban school closures Replies, DMs, and Signal open

Elon Musk threatens Congress.

Following the ❌👑 Vote Early nationwide day of action, we’ll gather with movement leaders to talk about the final push for voter turnout as well as what happens post-election: how we’re preparing for election enforcement & how you can plan now to be ready to protect the results of the election.

this is how oligarchy operates. it’s not just billionaires dictating political choices, bad as that is. it’s his literal exercise of an authority that belongs with government. this should be his undoing but he exercises unaccountable power and trump allows it.

Always a sign of a healthy society.

wow trump was right they are paying protesters to show up

Rep Smith: I think this points towards the necessity of removing Trump from office. Jen Rubin: Would you be in favor of impeachment and removing him from office? Rep. Adam Smith: Absolutely. I don’t see where we have a choice, given what he’s doing.

I'm not sure how much more blatant it can get that these guys are looting the federal government and then pointing over there and saying "look what THOSE BLACK PEOPLE ARE GETTING AWAY WITH!!!" bsky.app/profile/atru...

My co-host @matthewdtaylor.bsky.social has been covering Teepell's connection to Feucht since 2024. We cover this in depth going back years - check it out. www.youtube.com/live/ARs4gIV...

Unconscionable to be on “X” at this point. Just a cesspit. Except for banking; I do my banking there & don’t see a problem.

Some news alerts stop you in your tracks

Polymarket is taking bets on whether the seven Cornell students accused of raping a student will receive a felony sex crime charge. Among the athletes endorsing Polymarket: LeBron James, Derek Jeter, Eli Manning, Sue Bird, Reggie Bush and Richard Sherman. frontofficesports.com/article/poly...

It's disheartening to see the largest publications in the nation not cite original reporting from independent/individual reporters. Not one mention of @marisakabas.bsky.social's work in ID'ing Tommy. Instead, the WSJ implies that Tommy came forward himself. Disingenuous, at best.

it's time to stop grieving the demolition of CBS as a serious news outlet, and start simply recognizing it as the broadcast cousin of Fox, with better production values

This 2022 piece by Jeremy Peters In the New York Times was hilarious bullshit when it was published but now that Musk is literally bankrolling the entire Republican Party it’s a fucking laugh riot.

he wants to be the henry ford of the Metaverse?

“We want people to see what it really looks like,” she said of ICE flights. “It’s when the shackles are all laid out on the pavement, and the sun is shining on them, and you see them getting put on people, and people struggling to walk. People should know.” www.newsfromthestates.com/article/colo...
