Jamelle Bouie is one of the best writers in the country. Period. At anything. The things people say to him, usually with a huff of self-satisfied indignation, are *unbelievable*.

Believing your cause to be just is not a ticket to treat other people however you want.

My city has decided to add a bunch of helicopters to this year's fourth of July parade and it really feels like they hit "rise of fascism" a little too on the nose.

Please let Horatio and I recommend to you the Vera Wong series. Sutanto telescopes her twist basically from page one, and you do not care at all because the characters are so delightful.
Celebrate Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month by checking out these books and more at your local library!

Went and I checked this, and Edwin's correct: On the left is text from the reconciliation bill "PROHIBITING FEDERAL MEDICAID AND CHIP FUNDING FOR GENDER TRANSITION PROCEDURES FOR MINORS" On the right is from the Manager's amendment that strikes the word "FOR MINORS."

It should have never happened, but the @chicago.suntimes.com response to this is pretty decent, including owning the fuck-up and working to make sure it doesn't happen again. That said, in 2025 there is no excuse for "advertorial" not being clearly marked.

I would argue that you know you're winning when you post "We are NOT the Gestapo!" and the unanimous response is "GTFOH with that bullshit, Nazis!"

Our current cultural moment is the Brood X of our puritan origins. All our worst beliefs re-emerging from the dirt to haunt us, just when we thought we were past it

It is amazing to me that Dems are pressured to water down their messaging in order to avoid alienating 'centrists,' but Republicans can round up and deport sobbing children without fear of alienating 'centrists.' Says a lot about what we mean when we say 'centrists'

This is what Santa Ono signed up for, leaving him cursed to spend the rest of eternity as a speck of shit on Ron DeSantis's ridiculous cowboy boots.
Brutal account of what it’s like to teach at the University of Florida right now in the NYT—extraordinary climate of fear. People afraid to say intersectional and talk about lynchings. Fake students trying to entrap Muslim faculty or just making things up altogether. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/07/o...

What about little navies who are sad about having fewer fighter jets? Asking for an enemy.
Bessent says that little girls who are sad about having fewer dolls should just have it explained to them that they will have a better life for it

I know DStabs was her own kind of centrist, but that doesn't quash my desire to see her come out of retirement to roundhouse kick Elissa across the jaw.
Ok how thirsty do we think Slotkin is to run for president in 2028 as a Sensible Centrist who was also a Troop (CIA)?

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies.

Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?"

Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."
