Real talk: how this not anti-semitism?
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

Don’t live in NYC but even occasionally visiting it seems very hard to argue that more cars on the roads would be helping anything

Grown-ass men literally in charge of the country still trying to impress their fathers. Darling, it’s just so unbelievably dull
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

The Overton window of acceptable normie voices should be between the guy who defends torture and fucks kids and the lady who defends school shootings as the price of freedom and fucks her gun
"elevate charismatic figures such as Alan Dershowitz"

Glad they don’t entertain the notion that it’s because they want any kind of justice for victims of child sex trafficking but I’m also very tired of every fucking devastating thing happening anywhere ever being some kind of barometer or referendum on midterms
News Analysis: The willingness of congressional Republicans to defy President Trump and back legislation on the Epstein files was the clearest evidence yet that GOP lawmakers are starting to look beyond Trump’s tenure to their self-preservation in midterm elections next year.
Congressional Republicans Begin to Look Beyond Trump
Election defeats earlier this month and the approach of 2026 have G.O.P. lawmakers cautiously asserting themselves.

Dude who scored a zero percent support of black supporters (not just in the 2020 race, this year too) and ran for President as “mediocre Midwest mayor but gay” thinks we should back off on identity stuff
Speaking at a Texas Tribune Festival on Friday, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized the Democratic Party for failing to reach everyday Americans, arguing that it “got sucked in” to a conversation about identity. #TribFest25

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

RIP to a monumental talent
We are so sad to hear that Dave Ball, the keyboard genius of Soft Cell, has died. He was an electronic pop pioneer and with Marc Almond made a unique catalogue of songs, completely original in sound and content. Our love and condolences go to Marc and all those close to Dave. Neil and Chris xx
