Is the "October surprise" the thing that is least surprising?

I can’t compete with this

Is it bad if major defense contractors have their own foreign policies?

I wonder how much of this was thought out. Something like, "Hey, Hegseth, say something so insane that when I come out against it, I'll look reasonable (and maybe the voters will see that and boost our mid-term performance)" -- i.e., manufacture a news cycle. Or is it just a chaotic administration?

Out of concerns about antisemitism, I’m joining my friend Robert Kraft in banning Israel critic Macklemore from my stadium. Here’s a link for Kanye West tickets at that same stadium. by Jerry Jones

Is this something?: An opera based on the Bear called Carmy Burrata

First they came for Milo Yiannopoulos and I did not speak out -- because f*ck that guy

lmao -- obviously nothing will take this man down, but this feels like the beatles (by way of lennon...) comparing themselves to jesus. i'd *love* to see this be the final straw for a lot of his remaining supporters, tho i doubt it

we did it, Joe

Fiona Apple could be on everyone's top 10 list, win every known award, and be the top streamer across every platform and would still be severely underrated. Happy 30th, Tidal: music.apple.com/us/album/tid...

Comply or die!

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Donald Trump is trading stocks the right way. by Ezra Klein

Two officers who defended the Capitol against the Jan 6 rioters just sued to block Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund. Check out their standing argument, it's pretty interesting:

It’s VERY IMPORTANT that corporate media NOT frame this as a judicial settlement. Trump DROPPED the suit this morning. There is no lawsuit, and therefore, no settlement. you can’t settle a suit that doesn’t exist. This is just pure theft.

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

The new cold war is being played out within our borders

Trump broke the Commandents, so Vance had to commit the Deadly Sins. Trump compared himself to Jesus, so Vance had to claim that he was better at theology than the pope. This is one sad weird heretical Oedipal thing.

Trump’s Erratic Behavior and Extreme Comments Revive Biden Mental Health Debate

Political blowback requires political will power. As in, adults within the party to say, "That is wrong. We don't speak like that. No one who speaks like that belongs in our party." -- but there aren't such adults within the GOP.

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social because it's still open to debate...

uhhhh @danielbiss.bsky.social what’s going on here?

One of their finest:

while this is obviously good news, it also feels like an eerie omen to me, tbh!

Trump has no plan. This is a damning summary from The Economist’s Middle East Correspondent Gregg Carlstrom.

If Democrats fail to pin the ongoing -- and worsening -- crisis in health care on this administration, they do not deserve to win back control. This is such an easy message to win on!

guys. what if it happens while he's giving his big boy speech tomorrow?

i‘m using it for a column but i want to share here this line from lincoln on jefferson because it is applies to our situation as well. you can find it in his april 6, 1859 letter to henry l. pierce.

lmao

if this is so, which it is

here's hoping the fever is breaking

Personally I think this is too much money for Donald trumps untrained heavily armed militia

i'm sorry, but anything short of the complete abolishment of ICE isn't good enough

Chris Madel, a Minneapolis lawyer, says he's ending his Republican campaign for governor of Minnesota following the death of Alex Pretti. "I cannot support the national Republicans' stated retribution on the citizens of our state."

As we get more reports of ICE thugs detaining Americans, it should be noted that Timothy Snyder made it crystal clear from the onset of ICE raids that NO ONE would be safe. People tell ICE: "I'm an American." They illegally detain us anyway. Bc WE already let them erode due process for immigrants.

i blame lead for the recklessness, but yeah

fucking monsters
