I thought he retired that thing after election night 2012 lmao
Parker Molloy@parkermolloy.com · 9h agoKarl Rove's little whiteboard on Fox News, lol. Like... idk, man. I'm not sure that the strategy of expecting people to know a bunch of Hasan Piker lore AND them caring enough about it to the point that it affects who they vote for is going to work, but okay.
how would you cover up something that didn't happen
Ernie Piper@whoisernie.bsky.social · 7d agoZeynep Tufekci is still completely insane over the lab leak idea. "There is a conspiracy to cover this up" is not evidence for "covid was a bioweapon that escaped from a lab". It could also be evidence for my theory, "please stop talking about this stupid idea"
"The White House rigged a Mario Lopez-hosted civics competition to help a conservative white girl win" is the most expected story you could read in 2026

America’s finest young scholars competed to mark their country's birthday. It led to a disputed finish in the age of mistrust.

Matt Novak@paleofuture.bsky.social · 2w agoTrump says that for every ship targeted by Iran in the Strait of Hormuz the U.S. “will bomb and destroy ONE BRIDGE OR POWER PLANT, including those located next to, or in, the Capital City of Tehran.”

Tara@tatabug.bsky.social · 2w agoThe thing that no one on the left seems to grasp about former Republicans/Never Trumpers is that all we really care about is beating Republicans. We would absolutely vote for DSA candidates if the choice is a Republican. The only reason we care about DSA is when it keeps a Democrat from winning.
Incredible Wall Street Journal reporting on how this war succeeded in making the Iranian people rise up…to support hardliners within the regime. Secular women showing up to rallies to change “We are the soldiers of Seyyed Mojtaba,” things of that nature. www.wsj.com/world/middle...
we will fuck with international trade UNTIL prices skyrocket for everyone. we will fuck with food regulations UNTIL someone dies of food poisoning. we will fuck with aviation safety UNTIL there's an awful crash killing civilians. i'm so fucking tired.
Eric Columbus@ericcolumbus.bsky.social · 3w agoReader, I checked and checked again, and this is Secretary Hegseth’s actual account
we spent months discussing Obama2012/Trump2016 voters and trying to diagnose what motivates them when the obvious answer was that they were just not paying that much attention
McJulie@mcjulie.bsky.social · 3w agoMy take, which has been the same since roughly 2004, is that voters **are** consistently to the left of the politicians they vote for, but they’re also stupid toddlers who are wrong about a lot of stuff.
Here is Graham gloating about "killing all the right people." Just in case you see anyone try to do the whole "we should have decency for the dead" nonsense.
how did complying in advance work out for you, NYT?
Scott MacFarlane@macfarlanenews.bsky.social · 4w agoImportant statement from the New York Times
*raises a hand* Weird that he’s angry that something happened to him that he didn’t choose, right?
The USMNT and Knicks being really good except for the precise moment when Trump involves himself is really funny

Lee Rosenberg 🇺🇦@leerosenberg.bsky.social · last mo.If Popehat is permanently banned because of this post, I’m genuinely concerned about the viability of this platform. Hopefully, someone like @masnick.com knows more about what’s happening and whether this is just a temporary suspension
why are we still talking about the 2024 elec... ... oh, right
Pwnallthethings@pwnallthethings.bsky.social · last mo.turns out being deliberately antagonistic towards the people who elected you in order to court people who would under no circumstances ever vote for you is not smart
This is incredible. So satisfying. I was going to say it’s “cutting” but it’s more a knifing to the gut or maybe a beheading. www.theguardian.com/football/202...
