Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social · 2h agoOof. @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
think a lot about how even in '12 after going "nah i don't think i will" about a bunch of things people wanted from him, obama still had enough sense to go "fucking private equity, am i right? these rich motherfuckers, am i right? and romney's one of them" instead of "you owe me your vote, peasants"
Andrew Lawrence@ndrew.bsky.social · 14h agoif establishment candidates want to start winning primaries again all you have to do is say that rich people have too much money and that youll prosecute trump admin staffers and republicans that have broken the law
"Cool dude, see you in discovery!" is the obvious UNO Reverse card to Trump's attempts to bully organizations by suing them for a trillion dollars. It's a massive indictment of the US system that one after another institutions and major organizations settled and paid bribes rather than play it.
Graham Lanktree@glanktree.bsky.social · 5h agoPresident Donald Trump is seeking to stave off a court order that requires him to begin giving the BBC financial details on his business empire by Thursday in connection with a defamation lawsuit he is pressing against the network. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...
It’s a Klan Rally. These people only have to hear a name that their lizard brains process as sounding Arabic and hate immediately pours out.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 6h agoLOMBARDO: So I know the pastor spoke about Officer Abdelnabi-- TRUMP RALLY CROWD: *Boooooo* LOMBARDO: No. We're not booing him. He's the officer that passed away here recently
El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."
Ironically, the way mainstream papers lower the bar to give space to middling hacks in the name of ideological diversity is the closest real-world phenomeon to how MAGA imagines DEI works. Does anyone think we’d know the name Mark Thiessen if he were on the center-left competing for that slot?
Thor Benson@thorbenson.bsky.social · 3h agoTrump shared this Marc Thiessen article yesterday lol
holy shit -- Schiff ties Trump's judicial nominees in knots by asking them who won the 2016 before *before* asking them who won in 2020, which results in them sounding like election deniers about Trump's victories!
i am typing and deleting what i want to say.
Matt Burgess (WIRED)@mattburgess1.bsky.social · 10h agoNEW: Over the last few months, Meta has run dozens of paid ads that included AI-generated CSAM. The ads, some of which were linking out to “nudify” apps, targeted men in the US, UK, and a dozen European countries. Some were running in the last few days
I'm now left wondering how this is not a Daily Wire movie.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5h agoTrump: "You see it in the blue states run by Democrats -- everything is filthy dirty all the time. The cities stink The sidewalks are loaded w/horrible stuff. I don't want to use the term bc my wife hates it. She hates it when I imitate no men in women's sports, when I do the weightlifter."
The narrativising of this is kind of maddening. OpenAI's model didn't "break free and hack HuggingFace." Meta's model didn't "break free and hack another company." Tech companies are blatantly doing illegal acts and saying their AI did it on it's own as a promotional stunt. That's it.
Alex Hanna@alexhanna.bsky.social · 4h agoIt keeps happening... It'd be great if these companies could spend a little bit more time on network security and a little less time vibe coding.
I refuse to accept this from a man internationally known for the sodomy of living room furniture
I am begging election reporters to find another way of saying this
I repeat: This guy had the money to live anywhere in the world he wanted. He chose to spend the first 73 years of his life in Manhattan before finally fleeing to a jurisdiction more likely to let him get away with crimes.

New GOP message is actually spot on: "Yes, Trump IS taking care of his billionaire friends"
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4h agoLombardo on Trump: "When the press and media runs him down, they think about 'he's taking care of his billionaire friends.' But those billionaire friends provide jobs. And unless you take care of them, those jobs are absent."
Wow! @menendez.house.gov says that the EXACT scenario I flagged two months ago, where ICE "releases" someone having a medical emergency solely so their death won't be recorded as occurring while in custody, happened last month at the infamous Delaney Hall detention center in Newark, NJ.
Matt Shuham@mattshuham.bsky.social · yesterdayDays before the death of Edwin Jeovanny Lopez Cornejo, ICE officials did not report the death of another man who’d been detained at Delaney Hall — because they had technically “released” him in the middle of a medical emergency, Rep. Rob Menendez (D-NJ) alleged. www.huffpost.com/entry/delane...
Gonna go out on a limb here and say racist cranks who write for extremist white nationalist websites like VDARE should not, in fact, be confirmed to top roles in the Department of Justice.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 9h agoSCHIFF: You told my staff you stood by your article in white nationalist website VDARE where you wrote, 'Muslim immigrants & their kids seem prone to terrorism' C: I wrote that article in support of Trump's travel ban S: Do you stand by it? C: I stand by that article S: That's all I need to know
(regular voter voice) Well ah I don't really know about Israel and all that but it sounds like this group wants to help Trump keep the Senate and enable his ongoing crime spree and I'm against that

"SpaceX remains its own biggest customer. There just aren’t enough other people who want its rockets. And, I dunno, maybe if the rockets were a primary focus of the company, SpaceX wouldn’t be in danger of blasting a new crater into the Moon with its space trash." Read more: buff.ly/d9lBTQN
