Sen Adam Schiff (D-CA) is final speaker before the vote Here’s Schiff’s statement about Todd Blanche: “He’s sought to compensate cop-beaters with your money”
More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
We’re also funding death squads but what’s really offensive is that somewhere out there a poor person might be able to eat
USA TODAY Opinion@usatodayopinion.usatoday.com · 3d agoOpinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
The next time a climate change denier comes at you with that excuse:
i think the party of sick freaks who want to inspect kid's private parts should be branded as such
Gillian Branstetter@gbbranstetter.bsky.social · 3d agoAn initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play
The “Why would a woman I’ve made worry that I will hurt her if she displeases me cook to placate me?” question is only asked by the least self-aware domestic abusers.
Insane.
Joseph Cox@josephcox.bsky.social · 6d agoNew from 404 Media: Google Earth has introduced an AI feature that lets anyone fabricate completely bullshit satellite images. In our own tests, we added a “bomb blast and crater” to an area of Los Angeles. This is a misinformation time bomb, will 100% be abused www.404media.co/google-earth...
What the world needs, to heal, is a Labrynth sequel with Amy Lee in the David Bowie role as the Goblin Queen or the Matron of Trolls or somesuch.

Harrison Ford, the actor behind loveable scoundrels Han Solo and Indiana Jones, started his career as an on-set carpenter. That makes him a roguelike deckbuilder.
I think these people organically find the easiest, sleaziest positions in the world. That used to be being a politician, but now it's being a media personality. So being in politics has become a stepping stone to the media, like Trey Gowdy, Mike Huckabee, etc.
Rex Huppke@rexhuppke.bsky.social · 7d agoThis is a factual sentence: Amid an outbreak of explosive diarrhea and with measles cases at a 35-year high, America’s top health official, who has an affinity for roadkill and guzzling raw milk, will soon start hosting a cooking show.

All the Fauci stuff is a modern day version of the POW/MIA stuff after Vietnam - a way to try to rewrite the history of a huge failure of conservative ideology to be instead a story about how liberals and foreigners stabbed us in the back.
Aside from its many other problems, the idea Fauci was America's power-abusing covid dictator is somewhat complicated by the fact that he never had the power to do the things they're mad about. His recommendations bound nobody and were not particularly rigorously followed by the actual policymakers.
Zohran Mamdani on ICE: “I believe it's a cruel agency. I believe it's inhumane. I believe it does nothing to serve in the interest of public safety. “I believe it should be abolished.”
This is a 1938-level story from Nazi Germany

Manosphere grifters have figured out that some men are easily manipulated by making them feel insecure about their masculinity. The GOP has turned this sales pitch into both an ideology and a campaign strategy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
As part of today's memorial service for Lindsey Graham, they will bomb another girls' school in his solemn memory.
I worked at Disney a while ago. Do you know why theme parks are so safe? Because OOSHA reps can walk the track on any ride at any time and any safety violation they see is a $10,000 fine. Each. Theme parks are not safe because the company cares. They're safe because it's cheaper to comply.

THIS IS GOOD MESSAGING AND NOT ANTISEMITIC. Criticizing Netanyahu is not antisemitic. Lumping all Jews together like we’re a fucking monolith is.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Mamdani: "When I make criticisms of PM Netanyahu, they are criticisms of PM Netanyahu. And what I shared were not even frankly personal assessments, they were objective facts ... it's a city where everyone needs to know that their belonging to it is not conditional on how they feel about the mayor."
Stay the hell away from Elon Musk and especially his cars, rockets and software….
After a light show, each drone flies itself back to an exact spot in its charging case, guided by GPS/RTK coordinates loaded before takeoff. No manual handling for thousands of units.
Republicans do things TO people, not FOR people.
