I’m studiously avoiding anything having to do with the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

Nobody, I’ll repeat, nobody, speaks to Michael Tracey privately unless maybe he’s paying them by the hour to be his companion.

Michael Tracey claims that journalists tell him privately all the time that they're becoming more and more skeptical of the Jeffrey Epstein accusations, but they can't say so in public because they're afraid of people calling them pedophiles.

Miller: "It's not a coincidence that when you look at these violent Antifa demonstrations not one of the people that is demonstrating looks like a normal person. Not one looks normal. They're all deformed in some way in their appearance, in their dress, in their mannerism." #cdnpoli

Mamdani should wear a tan suit just to piss the idiots off more.

Hey! My ex’s movie comes out in theaters TODAY! Not only is it hilarious, has great performances, everyone involved is nice & talented, most importantly, my son is about to go to a v expensive college in a month & David needs to pay for it. So go see GAIL DAUGHTRY & THE CELEBRITY SEX PASS. Please!

Here's a non-paywalled link, because I know one of you must be as nosy as me and also wants to find out why that man is such a weirdo.

Madison Square Garden Kept a List of Gay Celebrities

An MSG database tracked and categorized hundreds of celebs, famous Knicks superfans, and even some of Taylor Swift’s wedding guests. Labels included “LGBTQIA,” “DO NOT HOST,” and low to high “risk.”

This story keeps getting more evil.

If and when he’s fired, girlfriend will be ex-girlfriend.

Five-byline alert: 🚨 “.. Patel abruptly cancelled a planned flight Friday to see his girlfriend in Chicago this weekend, after top administration officials frustrated with Patel summoned him to the White House ..” @ms.now www.ms.now/news/kash-pa...

Daniel Moraff didn't even get canceled by "the establishment", Summer Lee and the Justice Democrats are Bernie Bros. Yet he complains about Democratic operatives.

Politics is personal. Dan Moraff who recruited Platner and fed him rants about "the establishment", was a child of extreme wealth who got canceled for sexual misconduct. Platner was his revenge, his way back in power. You have to see: Platner's campaign was about intra-elite resentments. 1/

It’s kind of exhausting to like men specially but also be so over them generally.

One of Graham Platner’s Democratic Strategists

I hope the Leftists who are raging about Graham Platner dropping out of the race get through stages 1 and 2 of grief really damn soon because it’s truly embarrassing for them.

A vastly underrated good quality in a person is their ability to apologize when they’re done something wrong. I know it’s hard to do, so I give credit to those who do it.

Listening is an underrated skill. We should all learn from Mitch McConnell.

When the journalists (who work for big institutions that could finance this kind of investigation) are silenced by their corporate or billionaire overlords, it makes doing this kind of work more difficult, even impossible. And that’s exactly why Trump immediately went after the 4th Estate.

BUG-EYED CAT@californiahorst.bsky.social · last mo.

when i was young they had these people called “investigative journalists” who could find out stuff like if a senator was dead or not

Window into the mocking with which foreign media is treating the situation. The latest on the live of Le Monde, France’s paper of record: “We’re being told Trump wants to file an appeal with Infantino alleging that the Belgian team played soccer.”

"Mr Platner, you've been accused of..." "That was this morning. I've grown a lot since then and I think my supporters have grown with me."

I think Senator Warren is fantastic but if I saw the red flags about this dude back in late October, so could she, because she’s way smarter than I am.

ELIZABETH WARREN calls on Platner to drop out: “There can be no tolerance for sexual assault… With so much at stake, the best path forward is for Graham Platner to step aside as the Democratic nominee and address these serious allegations outside this Senate race.”

A devastating day for the Nazi Tattoos Are Nuanced Symbols That Must Be Understood Within a Full Range of Exculpatory Context community, quite possibly the dumbest community I've ever encountered online

"And the question is like, why are people making excuses for this man? Why are we doing that, right? Why is it that like the thing here is like, let me defend the guy with the Nazi tattoo accused of domestic violence who has like a rape fetish. Why are we doing that? Why are we doing that?"

let this be a lesson to deal with your feelings of gender anxiety and masculine inadequacy with a hobby or therapy or something and not a high stakes senate election

No one remembers this anymore I guess but there was an entire movement of women staffers from the Bernie 2016 campaign who organized on the eve of the 2020 campaign to beg Bernie to take a proactive stance against the systemic sexual misconduct they'd experienced on the 2016 campaign

People who continuously backed this cretin really need to do some soul-searching. You can’t just “Believe Women” when it’s convenient for you. www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/07/...

Platner Senate campaign taking 'time to reflect' on path forward after sexual assault allegation

Platner and his campaign denied the accusations made by 41-year-old Maine resident Jenny Racicot in a POLITICO article published Monday.

The crazy thing is that for most of my life I would go ten, fifteen, sometimes even thirty minutes at a time without thinking about the Reflecting Pool.

Fauci needs to sue this man into bankruptcy, if only to dissuade the other inveterate liars of this administration.

I think what the New York elections prove is that the anti-Mamdani movement is adrift without the charismatic leadership of Andrew Cuomo

The energy at the DSA election night party feels like an earthquake just ripped through the democratic party in a way that cannot be undone. I said yesterday that there was a movement and a political renaissance happening in NYC and here we see the heart of it. Also Chelsea Manning is DJing.
