Bishops, they're always giving away candlesticks to escaped prisoners

Trump's view that the Catholic church is weak on crime... another consequence of his love for Les Miserables

ummm like Jerry Brown?

I do this as well

I think this is a fair framing. Tea Party was unknown to NYT readers then actually did lead a midterm rebellion against GOP incumbents. No Kings is very familiar (many NYT readers participated!) and it actually *is* unclear how this incredible mass participation will translate to electoral politics

the constant reshuffling of bands in the 1970s was due to the crackup of the New Deal order

the problem with lying to keep oil futures down is eventually you run out of future

Speech on 9/14/01 YouTube video by Rep. Barbara Lee

Barbara Lee was and continues to be right youtu.be/mvnLtMKzX6Y?...

Imagine if the reaction to George Floyd had been "hey, how does this help white people anyway?" That's the "good" US politicians' response to Trump bombing Iran

This Supreme Court decision is so split it's bonkers. John Roberts didn't even join all the parts of his OWN OPINION. I predict it will not matter.

court reform should include page limits ✌️

Post from the Department of State: "We do not want allies to be shackled by guilt and shame"

This message from the US State Department about "not wanting allies to be shackled by guilt and shame" is a pretty direct call-out to the German far-right argument that Germany has spent too long feeling guilty about the Holocaust, and needs to move on and stop doing remembrance.

The worst thing about AI is how it talks like Elon Musk. chatgpt told me that jicama, salt, and lime is a "surprisingly elite combo". Shut up!!!

Guy who gets pissed off reading Homer in ancient greek because he changed all the Mycenaean Greek words

If Schumer negotiates a statutory bivens action I will personally apologize to him

I learned about "rucking" a couple months ago and I honestly can't get over it. Rucking is an exercise where you walk with a backpack. except its military/tactical coded. I'm sorry but that's just... living my life??!? Since I was 8 years old???

Erick Erickson: "The press will gladly focus on the President's insanity over Greenland to avoid having to talk about progressives storming into a church in Minnesota."

this is why I'm still on twitter. if I don't see one tweet this dumb per day my heart rate gets too low and i die

collar gap 😞

EZRA: Now, normally this podcast is about politics. But sometimes, something in the culture just really fascinates me. I'm talking, of course, of the new NYT game, pips

I'm not sure why anyone would go to that frozen wasteland so far from culture or civilization.

Anchorage is nice though.

Shadow banks? I thought private credit has long term funding

🤔

Daulton Varsho is such a good George Lucas-ass name. Love baseball

of course oysterman is best, but the dems need a big tent. I would vote for anyone in shellfish-related aquaculture

The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no evidence they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had proof, they’d face a court, not a drone.

The law still applies, even to suspected drug traffickers, and right now, the Administration’s story isn’t adding up.

great bit

sad to say, if they pass it via bicameralism and presentment, it's a law, even if they call it a CRA resolution

trying to find half off drinks for furloughed feds, so I googled "government shutdown deals" (all about congress for some reason?!)

setting up my out of office

it's an improvement but we rly need new IP
