what kind of a world have we gone and created here?
how many years have Republicans been pushing voter ID bills now? First time I personally fought against voter ID was in 2006, so they've been moaning about this for at least twenty years. I'm sure it's actually even longer

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

Yeah, see, here's the thing. You don't have to trust idiots like this when they're lying to your face. Senators who believed RFK, Jr's completely obvious bullshit have scrambled eggs for brains.
In his confirmation hearings, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told U.S. senators that he would not cut funding for vaccine research or change the nation's official vaccine recommendations. He did both. n.pr/46QDn9p
RFK Jr. made promises to get his job as health secretary. He's broken many of them

“He doesn’t agree with the phrase ‘abolish ICE’ because he said there are too many interpretations for it…”—we have been here before. “Abolish ICE” is a demand; it is clear. Don’t let electeds turn a policy question into a comms strategy debate so they can dodge stating they oppose the demand.
Stay for this bonkers interview with Rep. Adam Smith about his financial support from Palantir, facilitators of the ICE panopticon.

The US campaign to starve Cuba of fuel should be understood as genocidal. They are targeting a whole nation, deliberately destroying conditions necessary for life, in flagrant violation of international law. Pure barbarism, there is no other way to describe it.

lmao rotisserie chickens are wildly cheap, like, often times cheaper than an uncooked whole chicken
Gen Zers and millennials are swimming in student debt and may never own homes, but they’re splurging on gut-healthy juices and rotisserie chickens.
The Booming Business of Luxury Grocery Stores
A new crop of gourmet grocers has hit the city, drawing lines of trendy TikTokers, MAHA-curious health fiends and Instacart devotees who want to pop in for a treat.

when i was growing up, if a person had a camera at their front door, they were (rightly, imo) considered kind of weird and paranoid. boggles my mind that we've normalized it.

As far as I've been able to tell, this is just most online sports fans. Myself included.
Are there sports guys on here who adopt the annoying too-savvy doomerism of politics guys? Saying stuff like "You really think there's going to be a second half"
if you see someone posting "I CANT BELIEVE IT, HOLY SHIT" or "THIS IS UN-FUCKING REAL" later this afternoon know with confidence it's either someone watching "the big game" or more evidence of elite wrongdoing uncovered in the unending global pedophile trafficking scandal

I love media, I want to support writers I l like, I cannot justify paying for 50 newsletters. This all sucks.
i know that this is an unpopular take, but everyone starting their own newsletter as a revenue stream is not a sustainable model for writing and reporting or for people who love and want to pay for media.
A lot of people cannot just start a paid newsletter or become freelancers to sustain their careers. The sports, metro, and international desks did work that requires *team* resources, like legal checks, documents, access to archives, and long-term beat experience.

the right wing in this country straight up disagrees with the fourth amendment. they think it's wrong in principle and would get rid of it if they could. in their ideal world, government agents could enter anyone's house at any time for any reason.
Rep. Mark Harris: "Some of these things are nonstarters. Having judicial warrants? To me, hat's a nonstarter. Being able to make off their mask, putting them at risk? That's a nonstarter. I would say anything that's going to hamstring the work of ICE, that's just not going to go anywhere."

There’s no reforming it.
There’s no compromise.
There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.
