Cookie Monster is in the booth with Boog at Wrigley, will be singing Take Me Out (to the ballgame, not the Franz Ferdinand song, unfortunately) in the 7th

It messes up their narrative that the party is being held hostage by corporate interests and AIPAC when the reality is that the party is significantly further left than it was 30 years ago.

Just another douche-bro smugly arrogant "Leftist" calling me an imbecile because I point out to him that the Democratic Party has not been moving Right at all, it's been steadily moving left. They REFUSE to believe the FACT that Biden/Harris was and are progressive. So they call names.

Nobody likes that we’re firmly in the Glonzo Era. But here we are, and I’m happy that she has a plan to hunt and kill Glonzo.

not terribly worried about michigan in a year where we’re leading in tx and electing the atl mayor in georgia, it’ll all probably be fine in a month or so

Post your hottest music take. Mine is New Order is better than Joy Division.

I can't stress enough what a crisis this is. Trump's own intelligence agencies concluded that Iran attacked Minnesota's critical infrastructure and Trump is saying that it's Minnesota's own fault and denying it was Iran. The federal government won't defend blue states in a literal war.

Investigators cautioned that the assessment was preliminary. There were no indications that any water supply had been rendered unsafe to drink.

BASH: But it peeled off. Why did that happen? BURGUM: It didn't peel off. There was vandalism. There was box cutters. There have been 7 arrests. BASH: There are photographs of people cutting a 350 foot gash in the reflecting pool? BURGUM: Dana, I'm not sure why you keep questioning it

Trump 9 points underwater *IN TEXAS.* It's literally impossible to tell how the media would cover a Dem President with equivalently low approval ratings (because there's never been one before) but you'd be hearing LAME DUCK every 15 seconds

New from 404 Media: Google Earth has introduced an AI feature that lets anyone fabricate completely bullshit satellite images. In our own tests, we added a “bomb blast and crater” to an area of Los Angeles. This is a misinformation time bomb, will 100% be abused www.404media.co/google-earth...

looking at the headlines and reflecting once again on how all the smart, hard-working, honest people I know feel like they’re going at least a little insane in our era of total Stupid Immoral Asshole ascendancy

I’m glad the NWSL soccer quality is good enough to make up for the league’s business division stepping on every rake in its path, over and over and over again.

CNN: "The president's overall approval rating now stands at just 34%. That matches his career low following the January 6 insurrection."

One thing you can see in the latest Stancil blowup is that a sizable share of this website thinks that good intentions are the only thing that matter in policymaking, and expressing skepticism that a policy will really work as intended is equivalent to stealing food from the poor.

I will go to my grave screaming that the only justification for single-space after a period is when you’re operating with a character limit. It’s just easier to read.

Trump shattered ethics norms. Will voters trust Democrats to fix them?

Democrats are making the case that now is the time to tackle anti-corruption reforms — to serve as a check on Donald Trump and to overhaul a system voters say is co-opted against their interests.

A one-match suspension is light for a dirty play this obviously intentional. I would really just love NWSL reffing in general to stop being awful. Just raise your game to mediocre, please.

GM CEO Mary Barra is introducing Trump at his rally. Something to keep in mind if you're in the market for a vehicle anytime soon.

It would help a lot if a lot of journalists and pundits weren't using Twitter as their assignment editor, several years into its transition into Stormfront.

It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.

This beautiful gilded photo represents the best news available to all fans of the other 29 MLB teams.
