Christian nationalist politicians lecturing Jews descended from Holocaust victims about what is actually antisemitic really is the logical endpoint to the current antisemitism discourse.
BONDI: You didn't ask Merrick Garland anything about Epstein

BALINT: Weak sauce

BONDI: And with this antisemitic culture right now, she voted against a resolution--

BALINT: You want to go there! Really? Talking about antisemitism to a woman who lost her grandfather in the Holocaust! *storms off*

I’m actually blocking all the men who weirdly want to argue with me about ai not being categorically junk because I’m on the record about the meaningful distinctions and have demonstrated I know the difference between marketing and scientific processes that use what we now (blithely) call AI

I see a lot of people are fapping about AI on the skyline today and I wish you perverts would do that shit in private like responsible adults.

Embarrassing. For her and for the USA.
Rep. Nadler: "How many of Epstein's co-conspirators have you even indicted? How many perpetrators are you even investigating?"

Pam Bondi: "Your theatrics are ridiculous!…You don't tell me anything, you washed up loser lawyer!"

I don’t understand how she’s not embarrassed to conduct herself in public this way. I would be embarrassed to conduct myself in private this way too, obviously, but at least she wouldn’t be literally broadcasting her base behavior then

Is Pam Bondi a stock broker?
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

I parsed through some of the emails in the Epstein files, and it’s very clear that Epstein was a eugenicist weirdo. Something he very much had in common with the billionaire class à la Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Donald Trump. New for @motherjones.com.

Epstein couldn't stop emailing people about eugenics
In the latest files, the trafficker gives it a Silicon Valley–pilled name: "genetic altruism."

So I reread this this morning as part of the research I’m doing, and I thought it would be good to remind people that it’s not new that the liberals would defend absolute brutality on one hand and then claim for it to be more civil on the other

We live in a moment when so many people in this country share the moral clarity that ICE endangers us all—only for the heads of the “opposition” party to try to quash this clarity with meaningless reforms, and to give ICE more money and power. 2020 never ended.

James Comer spent years and millions of taxpayer dollars trying and failing to prove that there was a policy connection between Hunter’s appointment to the Burisma board in 2014 and his VP dad. But Comer won’t spend a day or a dollar investigating this.

perhaps we will eventually discover that the only true difference in intelligence between humans and other species is our ability to rationalize and explain away our nature in a way that makes it merely seem that we’re not actually animals acting on instinct

I used "smooth-brained" as a dig until a father of a boy with lissencephaly -- the medical term for the condition -- wrote me an incredibly patient note to explain what his son had to deal with.

This phrase is a gratuitous insult to parents and children who are already suffering. Don't use it.

One of the most blackpilling things about the Biden years was that we heard for *years* before that that ppl would happily support a slight rise in costs if it meant that lower wage workers got a raise & when we saw that actually get implemented a bit, ppl lost their fucking minds with rage
Remarkable. Higher income wage growth is stronger than lower income. Before about a year ago, that was flipped. Lower income wage growth used to be very strong pre 2025. BofA data
