“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.

With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Weak men always fear and are threatened by strong women. I’ll never regret voting for VP Kamala Harris.

NEW: In its second correction of the night, DOJ tells a federal judge it make factual representations to the court about the status of one of the DOGE bros who had access to the Treasury Dept. systems. This is becoming a pattern

I suspect (another) judge will not be happy.

A federal judge just ordered the Trump administration to restore CDC, FDA and HHS webpages that Trump had ordered to be deleted.

This comes after doctors sued the Trump administration for interfering with their treatment of patients.

trump was just asked what money he was going to use to buy Gaza.

"We're not gonna buy it. We're gonna have it, we're gonna keep it." No follow up question, of course.

Is THAT how real estate works in the Middle East?

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons
