Donald Trump being President of the United States and Elon Musk being the world's wealthiest person is all the evidence necessary to prove our current economic & political systems are deeply corrupt and corrosive to humanity.

The media's takeaway from an El-Sayed win is the same as it would have been from a Stevens win, and the same as it will be if El-Sayed wins the general, or if he loses it: everyone, no matter who they are, needs to take several steps to the right.

maybe i'm just speaking for myself here but I'd much rather a guy be fat than violent and unstable

He will never understand that being "the fat guy from Superbad" is infinitely better than being "the martial arts chud nobody likes"

Interesting that Aaron Rodgers isn't ever told to "stick to sports"...... Wonder why?

Every single thing happening in the corporate world right now is essentially "How do we get to Skynet as quickly as possible?"

If you are talking about “lab leak” in 2026, I genuinely think you are an unserious person who does not deserve the respect of a debate

Every Democrat who runs against an Elon Musk supported candidate should run an ad about Musk spending his millions and billions to buy votes . In fact the DNC would be wise to do the same .

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.

Never forget: republicans not only sold their souls, they sold out the country, the rule of law and your freedom. It’s their job to rein him in. They chose not to.

To be very clear, extrajudiciously killing people you suspect are drug traffickers is *also* murder

The US military’s strikes on alleged drug boats have likely illegally killed “individuals who are not involved in narcotrafficking,” Sen. Tim Kaine told the White House, following “a careful review” of classified information he has seen so far.

"Liberal bubble" has only ever meant anywhere where right wing perspectives aren't artificially elevated and forced into everyone's feeds.

Yup. You did. And cancer research for children was first to go.

I misspoke earlier when I said that we needed more hot takes on The Odyssey, what I meant to say was that we needed more hot takes on the hot takes about The Odyssey. Clarity is our friend.

I feel like we could use a few more hot takes on The Odyssey, I mean what else could people possibly be paying attention to right now?

We vote “by mail“ in every election. We get our ballots in the mail. We do our research. I take them to a secure drop box. Please. Verify that your registered address is correct/current and that you are active in the system. Fix anything before November. Love you all. Stay Blue. 🇺🇸💙

I get the sense that a lot of you are not doing your airport pull-ups and I think that is probably what is to blame for the bad lettuce. And the funky reflecting pool. And the measles.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.

The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor

The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.

New: We found 50 cops who misused Flock cameras and other license-plate readers for personal purposes, often to spy on their girlfriends or ex-wives. He "watched every single move I made. ... Who do you turn the chief of police in to?" wapo.st/3S6rTuo

She left her ex. He secretly tracked her through a network of policing cameras.

Flock’s array of license-plate cameras was built to fight crime. But at least 50 law enforcement officers were charged with or accused of misusing it and other systems.

Not only did they absolutely beg for this, they made it so that “merit” was synonymous with being white so now you’re stuck with precisely the kind of moron who believes that. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Gavin Dlsays that if you look deeply into his eyes, you'll see that there's no contradiction here.

You're not going to believe this but Gavin Newsom is taking the side of capital over workers. In this case it's tricky because he's backing the very MAGA allies his cosplaying X account claims he's fighting. www.wsj.com/business/med...

This is a serious issue, even though Trump is attempting to turn it into a political game by blaming Minnesota. Cyberattacks targeting municipal water and wastewater systems have now been reported in at least seven states this week.
