Shout out to all the Germans in 1933 who muttered "oh my god this is unbelievably stupid"
This is what pro-Israel Jews took from an article that found that nearly half of all young Republicans were *extremely antisemitic*.

When I say pro-Isreal groups make Jews less safe, I really mean it

Trump on FIFA: "They gave me their first peace prize. They gave me a peace prize. I think they saw that I got screwed by Norway."

Beshear is currently my second choice behind pritzker. Don't confuse not being a partisan pugilist with being an empty centrist. Beshear is the anti-Newsome.
Beshear: "If somebody is looking for a Democratic version of Trump, that's not me. My goal is to bring people together, my goal is to heal the country. You can't do that if you're engaged in the same tactics he is. If that's what the American people are looking for, I'm not their guy."

Congratulations taxpayers for the first 10 billion dollars you donated directly to Donald Trump's pocketbook.

NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE

then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results"

and i was like.

It amazes me how terminally online these guys are. There's no way anyone in that room had any idea what he was even talking about.
JD Vance takes the mic and immediately attempts to tell a joke. He doesn't get a single laugh. Not. Even. One.

Amazed he is putting in even a tiny bit of work into his 19 billion dollar no-show side gig.
Trump: "I thought when I saw this note -- 'I'm excited to announce that Norway' -- I thought they were going to say they're giving me the Nobel Prize. Oh. This is less exciting. But I don't care. I don't care about Nobel Prize."

This is just a concentration camp policy, they are detaining people they have no reason to believe are here unlawfully, for investigations they could do equally well without detaining people. It's detaining people just to be cruel.
This is a truly horrifying memo. It says that the policy of the US government will now be to proactively seek out and arrest likely tens of thousands of refugees who entered legally under Biden and subject them to detention, where they will be interrogated about their status.

Since popat is going on a thing, I would just like to say that I am very strongly pro 1A But free speech absolutism isn't a thing because we cannot all agree on a common definition of speech.....
Can we talk a bit about the terms “First Amendment absolutist” and “free speech absolutist,” and whether they have any agreed-upon meaning?

I promise to try, to the utmost of my ability, to Be Respectful Of Other Opinions.

Let's talk more about how AOC said "um"
Trump: "Herschel Walker, speaking about loyal. How good a football player was Herschel? Now he's ambassador to the Bahamas. I don't know. Bahamas. Bermuda. Is he Bahamas? Whatever. It's a nice place."

The ultimate problem here is that there's an entire class of political pundits like this who have cooked their brains on X and get their entire view of trans rights advocacy through an explicitly right wing framing, a result that was the explicit goal of Elon buying and manipulating the platform.

Guess the racist video was posted by John Barron.
Q: The president just said on Truth Social it would be a 'big mistake' for UK to hold over control of Diego Garcia, but the State Dept said the US supports that handover

LEAVITT: The post should be taken as administration policy. When you see it on TS, you know it's directly from President Trump.

It's amazing how bad a brief looks even when it's 80 percent the way from an outline to a rough draft. It's really that last bit and the editing that makes a brief good

TIL that while boycotts against Israel are anti-Semitic, not boycotting pro-palestinian businesses is also anti-Semitic.
