BLUMENTHAL: Judge Cook, was the Capitol attack on January 6? COOK: I hesitate to use the word 'attack'

There. Are. No. Trans. Women. In. The. WNBA. This whole conversation is a racist trap and long circuitous argument that always comes back to insulting cisgender Black women by calling them not women. In particular it attacks: Brittany Griner, Liz Cambage, and A'Ja Wilson.

So much this

AES has work to do if he's going to win in the general. This was a bad result going into that race. The supporters were confused and surprised by the vote coming out of Wayne county, and instead of talking to Black people they wrote their own story about them being dumb or racist.

How is anyone that dependent on LLMs at this point?

Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

Quick someone tell conservatives. They were so concerned about camps the CDC wanted to build, surely this alarms them.

ICE Is covering up the actual number of deaths caused by their inhumane detention conditions and practices. www.huffpost.com/entry/delane...

Like this is the bs y’all always pull and then pretend folks dislike y’all because we’re the establishment. No…a majority of y’all are the douchebags.

Censure and not expulsion is wild to me. What a creep.

Max Miller story is providing incredible cover for the 65 year old NC Republican congressman who was just found to have been texting his female staff shit like "I had to leave the party because you brought your bf with you 🥺"

If we live through this, someday I'm going to be telling my sister's grandchildren about the Maga Years for their book report, and they aren't going to believe how stupid it was.

Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · 21h ago

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

They know voters hate this shit. So they wait until Blanche has the votes for Collins to come out against him. So she can claim to be a moderate. So she gets reelected. So she can spend the next two years voting for more Todd Blanches.

Collins Watch@collinswatch.bsky.social · 20h ago

Susan comes out against Todd Blanche now that he's got the votes. So tiresome. (We called it: tinyurl.com/3bepafkz) #MEpolitics

everyone who freaked out about FEMA/CDC camps is currently cheering on ICE camps

Ugh no #AltText, it's a tweet from Walter Kirn QTing Jeffrey A. Tucker, upset about previously proposed quarantine camps for folks with Covid, conspicuously not bothered by the current concentration camps. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Immigrant being held at Delaney Hall dies, marking 22nd death in ICE custody

The party currently operating concentration camps with a health secretary who's regularly talked about "health camps" says the hypothetical health-based concentration camps that didn't happen six years ago are bad.

These guys are freaking out over their own imaginations again.

What are they talking about? The camps are here and they brought them and they stuffed people into them. They thrilled at the idea of alligators eating their prisoners. They are buying up media to hide the information. People are dying in cages. They are tormenting children. This is IMAX projection.

these guys all insisted that even the meager COVID restrictions we had in place would last forever because "government never gives up power" and instead of admitting they were wrong, they decided to just become full-time liars

We must never allow another judiciary saboteur from the GOP to serve as President. The damage from the first Trump term is still being felt and Congress, while occupied by anti-American unitary executive theorists, cannot adequately protect Americans from them getting on the bench.

I don't know how this isn't criminal.

Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.gov · yesterday

Yep. Earlier this year I was interviewed by Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media is aiding the Trump administration’s Epstein cover up.

Think of the mass hysteria if we talked about rural areas like this. "Manure stink everywhere, the roads are gravel and dirt, the gas stations are dimly lit grease fires waiting to happen, if you're very lucky there's a Walmart that has turned their main street into a dilapidated zombie movie set."

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d ago

Trump: "Look at the blue cities. What do they have in common? They're all dirty. They're filthy dirty. Their streets are dirty. Their streets smell. Their storefronts are broken. Their trees are all gross. Everything about the place is dirty. It's really all of them."

Women. Women will be hit the hardest.

President Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/aaAEu6v

It is an outrage and it will be an outrage every single day that these people are on our streets as if they are an occupying military force. They should be ashamed of themselves. They should be having worrying talks amongst themselves about whether or not they can be tried for treason.

This is the tragic yet logical result of a decades-long project—undertaken by rightwing politicians and “business-minded” administrators alike—to distort the meaning of higher education, to deny the intrinsic value of the pursuit of knowledge, to deprive us all of richer, more purposeful lives.

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

It’s bad these obviously farcical arrangements are treated with more rhetorical weight than constitutional amendments.

Marty Lederman@martylederman.bsky.social · 2d ago

The @nytimes inexplicably continues to assert that "the Justice Department ... gave [Trump] the audit protection as part of a deal to end the lawsuit." Nope. It wasn't included in the "deal." It's a unilateral--and blatantly unlawful--decree by the Acting AG. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/b...

NEW: I just introduced a bill that would crack down on Trump’s new $100,000/month fast feed of his market-moving Truth Social posts. We must stand up against his rampant corruption.

We’re also funding death squads but what’s really offensive is that somewhere out there a poor person might be able to eat

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

This is a weird way to admit that he and his friends don't actually have imaginations and they are just playing with numbers. Seems to defeat the purpose of the game.

"I'm entitled to whatever I want whenever I want it for any reason and I don't care what satisfying these urges does to me or the world" well okay dude, seems like there's something deeper going on here, but that's just my take

I'm always dumbfounded when people are like "a trans player could take away a scholarship and an opportunity for a cis girl to go to college" because, basing educational opportunity on how good someone is at a game seems like the bigger problem to me.

Not lost on me that Singal is reduced to sputtering "Doesn't that make you furious?!" Because of course it's the rage that he trades in, not information. This is a bizarre piece of writing. Transphobia is a weird cult.

Jonathan Howard@joho.bsky.social · 2d ago

I wrote an article that made this point. Jesse Signal got so mad, he created a bizarre fantasy version of me and declared me incompetent entirely based on his own imagination. All because I made the same point as Kevin Kruse.

Y'all there's no version of reality where they don't try something. They're going to lose.
