Any time any anchor ever asks a Democrat about Hasan Piker, the correct response is “Piker isn’t running for anything. Republicans have a literal candidate supported by Mike Johnson who refers to kids as cum trophies. You’re asking the wrong questions.”

HOLY SHIT - Tapper plays Johnson footage of GOP candidate Brandon Herrera describing moms as "cum trophies," mentions he called Nazi machine guns "the original ghetto blasters," & asks Johnson how he can support him. Mike says "he has run a very effective campaign ... that was his persona online"

This is the worst thing that’s ever been written but I do love the idea that rap music now represents a stifling all encompassing HR bureaucracy, I reject the Yin Yang Twins attempts to get me to dress in business casual clothing and spend all day in an office being lectured to

I see the NYT is still platforming 'dei crushed white men' bullsh*t. Here it's buried in a 'why rural themed pop culture' is so popular in a piece written by a Princeton grad who lives in New York City. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/13/o...

Today, it’s country music that — for all its commercial success — represents the underdog. As diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives accord advantages to everyone except straight white men; as globalization and an urban, knowledge-based economy have impoverished and emptied out rural communities; and as trust in institutions including higher education and the federal government declines, the culture of rural working-class whites can symbolize an unconstrained way of life that stands apart from the stifling, all-encompassing H.R. bureaucracy that everyone else lives in.

5 years ago I wrote a heartfelt remembrance of 9/11 as a personal witness from my 14th Street office. I regret it. Participating in the sacred seriousness of 9/11 is bad for my soul. When do I get to make fun of myself for how ridiculous it was?

A young white woman neighbor stole an old lady’s outdoor cat and got it fixed and got it shots and now it’s her inside cat. Other neighbors asked her to give it back and she doubled down- the old lady can’t take care of the cat and is basically a bad person. They are fighting it out on Nextdoor & FB

Telling someone that everyone in the world is out to get them, and even friendly-seeming voices are plotting a betrayal behind their back, is a commonly-used means of control. This is especially the case when the people being frightened in this fashion are already scared and vulnerable.

Behind a paywall so not sure, but 99% sure the data “measures” that the parents are rich. Private schools also lead to better outcomes, aka, they end up with more money, better jobs and more “happiness”

"Intensive parenting isn’t going away, because too many parents know it works—and the problem is not its high costs. The problem is that we impose these costs on the wrong people: individuals," Nate G. Hilger wrote in 2022:

He's right, it was a long time ago. I can't remember if I was working on campus here in Princeton signing students into classes or if I was heroically leading the recovery effort at Ground Zero, bravely digging through rubble with my bare hands. Time, am I right?

"September 11th was 25 years ago" -- Ted Cruz defends Trump lying about his response to 9/11 but suggesting he might not remember because it was so long ago

I can’t wait to read the NYT op-ed from Renee Good’s wife about grief on the one year anniversary of her death. Surely the NYT will extend the same grace to Becca Good—whose partner died protesting against state power—as it has to Erica Kirk—whose partner died defending white supremacy

For those catching up, 3 major state supreme court rulings this evening. 1. Missouri court blocked GOP's 2025 gerrymander & validated a veto referendum 2. Missouri court validated measure protecting direct democracy 3. Maryland court validated a Dem measure meant to pave the way for gerrymandering

This is a great piece. It is both inciteful and action oriented. Every GOP politician should be told some story about something Musk said, and then asked, do you support Elon Musk and his racist theories?

Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social · 3w ago

I wrote this piece a few hours ago about how Musk bears responsibility for today's GOP and how they, in turn, must be held responsible for his extremism, but the dollar figures are already out of date. A hateful bigot is funding the Republican midterm campaign. Seems sorta like a big deal?

A civilian engineer aboard a Navy transport ship was raped and the judge dismissed her case saying that being raped was within her duties and must be treated as a worker's comp claim. Can we be done with this shit? I need us to be done.
