Police officers who publicly declare that they’ll quit if a mayoral candidate they dislike wins the election are (1) usually bluffing—sure buddy, toss away that paycheck and pension—and (2) exactly the sort of cops cities would be better off without, ones who don’t see themselves as public servants.

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.

Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.

Q: Did the president ask the DOJ to close the Homan investigation and does he have to return the $50,000

LEAVITT: Mr. Homan never took the $50,000, so you should get your facts straight ... you had FBI agents going undercover to try and entrap one of the president's top allies and supporters

I just woke up from a long nap, can someone tell me if Trump has already apologized to the nation for falsely blaming the Kirk assassination on the left when—as with both his assassination attempts and 85% of political violence this century per the data—it was a far-right nutjob?

Major media needs to stop doing this right fucking now.

Mamdani is a "democratic socialist," not a socialist.

There's a difference—and @politico.com damn well knows it.

Act like fucking journalists, for God's sake.

Hey Red Sox, I'm a diehard fan - but the fact that your owner John Henry doubled his net worth in just 5 years - to $5.5 BILLION - and you pay many of your workers $10/hour less than comparable earners in the area...it stinks.

“Months later, when Mr. Trump hosted a party at Mar-a-Lago for young women in a so-called calendar girl competition, Mr. Epstein was the only other guest.”

😂 Good point. Bondi ordered 1,000 FBI agents to review roughly 100K pages of Epstein files (the ones that don't exist but now exist again but Obama wrote) - and Senator Dick Durbin said the FBI agents were told to "flag" any mentions of Trump. This is a must read from Marcy:

Robert Aaron Long was caught masturbating by his roommate while watching 🌽.

As a Evangelical Christian he believed it was a sin & moral failing.

Rather than take accountability he blamed Asian women.

Why? Because he had already fetishized and saw them as objects, not people. This is racism.
robert aaron long Does this rule out the possibility that these were anti-Asian hate crimes? I think it was racialized, obviously. By frequenting these establishments, he's already expressing a racialized fetish for Asian women. He walked in that door, knowing that they would be Asian faces he would be shooting. He had dehumanized this entire group of people. I don't know if there's any evidence to suggest that it was like, "I hate all Asian people and so I'm going to attack these women." Would he have killed a business establishment full of white women? Would he have dehumanized them in that way? Would he have gone to that establishment in the first place, because he wouldn't have fetishized them in that way? There are racial implications that go beyond just "I hate all Asian people." He fetishized, objectified and dehumanized Asian women in particular, and that plays a role. Brief The man convicted of killing multiple people at Cherokee County spas in 2021 appeared in court on Monday for a motions hearing regarding additional murders in Atlanta. Robert Aaron Long has already been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of four people in Cherokee County, but pleaded not guilty in Fulton. On Monday, a Fulton County judge ruled statements Long made after his arrest and during his guilty plea in Cherokee County could be used during this latest trial. Fulton County prosecutors have said that they plan to seek the death penalty in their case.

this merger needs to be stopped
WGAW (WRITERS GUILD OF AMERICA WEST) WRITERS GUILD OF AMERICA EAST WGA Statement on Paramount's Decision to Cancel The Late Show with Stephen Colbert On July 2nd, Paramount agreed to settle a baseless lawsuit brought against 60 Minutes and CBS News by President Trump for $16 million. On July 15, during a regular show of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Colbert went on-air and called the settlement a "big fat bribe" in exchange for a favorable decision on the proposed merger between Paramount and Skydance, a charge currently under investigation in California. Less than 48 hours later, on July 17, Paramount canceled The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, a show currently performing first in its timeslot, giving vague references to the program's "financial performance" as the only explanation. For ten years, the show has been one of the most successful, beloved and profitable programs on CBS, entertaining an audience of millions on late night television, on streaming services and across social media. Given Paramount's recent capitulation to President Trump in the CBS News lawsuit, the Writers Guild of America has significant concerns that The Late Show's cancelation is a bribe, sacrificing free speech to curry favor with the Trump Administration as the company looks for merger approval. Cancelations are part of the business, but a corporation terminating a show in bad faith due to explicit or implicit political pressure is dangerous and unacceptable in a democratic society. Paramount's decision comes against a backdrop of relentless attacks on a free press by President Trump, through lawsuits against CBS and ABC, threatened litigation of media organizations with critical coverage, and the unconscionable defunding of PBS and NPR. The Writers Guild of America calls on New York State Attorney General Letitia James, no stranger to prosecuting Trump for illegal business practices, to join California and launch an investigation into potential wrongdoing at Paramount. We call on our elected leaders to hold those responsible to account, to demand answers about why this beloved program was canceled and to assure the public that Colbert and his writers were not censored due to their views or the whims of the President. In the meantime, the Writers Guild of America will support our members at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and across the late-night industry as they speak truth to power and we will explore all potential legal and political avenues to fight for our members in the aftermath of this decision.

I had been wondering how we make Fox's role in the Esptein coverup visible.

This, from @robertgarcia.bsky.social, is a good start.
