Y’all need to stop whitewashing MTG. She’s the same opportunist she’s always been. She’s no longer blonde enough or whatever the standard is now, so she’s pivoting to attract a new demographic. It’s just as gross as ever.

Can someone on here tell @petebuttigieg.bsky.social that Seattle’s mayor just played him? Maybe should do some research before endorsing.

South Koreans working in a South Korean owned factory. Outrageous! \s
475 South Korean nationals taken into custody by Trump‘s immigration authorities because they had the audacity to be WORKING in a $7.6 billion plant that’s the biggest economic development project in the history of Georgia.

If you’re South Korea, would YOU continue to invest in a place like this?

Seriously, GOP, this isn't even remotely normal. The president is explicitly saying he will declare war on Chicago and says "I love the smell of deportations in the morning." This is both fascist and insane. History is watching. You are presiding over a rolling coup. www.cnn.com/2025/09/06/p...

Scoop: A sudden no-bid ICE contract for specialized sniper training has gone to a decorated former Marine who is also the brother of a GOP lawmaker.

Reached by WIRED, he says there was no hookup; 20 years in a reconnaissance unit and even more as an instructor simply left him uniquely qualified.
US Congressman’s Brother Lands No-Bid Contract to Train DHS Snipers
DHS says retired Marine sniper Dan LaLota's firm is uniquely qualified to meet the government’s needs. LaLota tells WIRED his brother, GOP congressman Nick LaLota, played no role in the contract.

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
