they heard an arab sounding name and booed instinctively. and people really try to say that the right isn't tied together by racism
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 7h 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
you're laughing but any mathematician who corrects him is probably now classified as a terrorist
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 6h agoTrump: "I don't get credit for anything. Even prescription drug prices, where they're down 600 percent."
ICE has now spent over $2.2 BILLION on purchasing 4 private prisons from CoreCivic, with the company banking half a billion dollars on the most recent sale. Of course, ICE will not actually operate these facilities; CoreCivic keeps the contracts to run these places for the foreseeable future.
I have, with my own eyes, watched my tax dollars in the form of missiles as they hit buildings inhabited by civilians. I'd much prefer subsidizing a grocery story I don't use.
USA TODAY Opinion@usatodayopinion.usatoday.com · 3d agoOpinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
But at least the amount of trans women who win gold medals at the olympics went from zero to zero right?
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
Trump Moves to Cut Off Student Loans for Tons of Degrees
Under a new rule, if your degree doesn’t make enough money, you won’t be able to get a student loan.

i'm blown away by how many presumably liberal people are accusing others of antisemitism for simply pointing out israel's unique place in american lobbying. like you do realize that they have a legal carveout that no other nation has right? and that AIPAC does spend a lot of money in elections?
it would be so unfortunate if tom selleck never got over this disappointment and it slowly killed him deadline.com/2026/07/tom-...
Tom Selleck Says 'Blue Bloods' Cast Took 25% Pay Cut To Keep Show Going
Nearly two years after the Reagans had their last Sunday dinner on 'Blue Bloods', Tom Selleck is still frustrated over the show's cancellation.

we pay the police so much money to do absolutely nothing. this dude didn't even live in washington state full time.
Erica C. Barnett@ericacbarnett.bsky.social · 5d agoSeattle police chief Shon Barnes is getting $700,000 in a settlement for leaving the department, PubliCola has confirmed.
Leto is a true Hollywood leading man: - critically reviled - hated by cast and crew - box office poison - known sex pest of course he's in everything!
Worth noting that Barnes and his team have been under fire for their treatment of Seattle's LGBTQ+ community in several contexts and that SPD is currently being sued for alleged discrimination involving, among other things, a comment by Barnes' top staffer that "we're not here for the gays."
“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...
so straight up copying and destroying is fair use but I can't use a short clip of Toby Keith's fascist anthem in a video without being demonetized, even when it's the topic of discussion!
Eli Valley@elivalley.bsky.social · last wk.Deliberate civilizational destruction is now "transformative" "value migration" of "information delivery mechanisms."
Remote work is a feminist issue and this study (and NYT op-ed) panning it are just plain silly reason.com/2026/07/27/n...
No, remote work is not making us miserable
The rise of remote work is a tech success story, despite what one new and very convoluted study claims.

you know shit is bad when the right wing is calling for a police chief to be fired
SquidTips - Aj/Alex/He🏍 🦑🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈@squidtips.bsky.social · last wk.I’ve never seen the Seattle Rightwing grifter sphere so mad at any SPD employee, which is how you know that Shon Barnes is hated by the average SPD cop as much as the community hates him The long string of embarrassing police leadership at the Seattle Police Department continues
still waiting on that Soros check to show up in my mailbox. any day now.
Philip Bump@pbump.com · last wk.[guy who reportedly makes seven figures arguing for centrist positions]:
if sam altman wants to convince me we're in the singularity, all he has to do is peel his face off and prove that he's a robot underneath. peel your face off, sam. do it.
right, because the problem with the dems is that they haven't focused enough on how they're not trump
Will Stancil@whstancil.bsky.social · last wk.You need to rhetorically position Trump as a kind of aberrational figure, whose baleful influence needs to be entirely undone.
We know what happens when the left of center party embraces transphobia. Look at Labour UK. Trans rights are lost there for a generation. They've got nobody left to fight for them. We cannot let that same cancer spread in the US in the Democratic Party.
Does anyone know where Jimothy is? We are drafting a proclamation to honor him and his contributions to the community.
Researching my next video, I googled “suburban terrorist attacks” on google. This was the first response. I know we know google is going through enshittification, but it's wild that it provided me basically the exact opposite result of what I was looking for
The Writers Guild of America will not stand idly by as Paramount attempts to violate our country's antitrust laws and deepen the contraction entertainment workers already feel. #BlockTheMerger

It's easy to predict the future when the future is so stupid.
Phillip Maciak@pjmaciak.bsky.social · 5mo agoIt's a Fetterman thing where, whatever he truly believes, he's going to come out of it with the MAIN belief that there is a media mob (perhaps a woke one!) seeking to destroy Men of Authenticity. He WAS a leftist (maybe). Now he's a victim of the media. That's gonna be his issue from now on.
