Kevin Warsh wants to lead America’s central bank.
Why does he have more than $100 million in undisclosed assets?
DO NOT STOP TALKING ABOUT THE EPSTEIN FILES
I love this so much.
Barack Obama sat down with Mayor Zohran Mamdani in a Bronx child care center, reading “Alone and Together,” a book about connection, community, and belonging to preschoolers.
Sidebar: Not sure these little-ones knew who Obama was 😂
Dear Media:
Blindly quoting the President without fact-checking or context is just misinformation with a press pass.
We don’t need stenographers; we need journalists. Do your job.

An opportunist wanker.
What if the United States had a Congress?
Trump Truth Social post
Donald Trump just threatened to unilaterally destroy an entire civilization.
Is there genuinely no limit to what Republicans will allow this unhinged, unwell man to do?
Congress must come back to Washington to rein in this dangerous behavior immediately.
Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.
For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.
Same.
I just called my Congress person and basically went on a "Do something" rant.
One man put us in this deadly quagmire. One man is wrecking our economy. One man’s immigration agents have terrorized our communities. One man has ridden roughshod over our system of government.
We said "No Kings" 250 years ago. Congress must say "No Kings" today.
If not, they must be replaced.
The President is openly threatening genocide. A crime against humanity. He must be removed from office.
The 25th Amendment must be invoked. If not, Congress has to do our damn job. Speaker Johnson, call us into session. War powers & impeachment. Remove this man from office.
So pro-life means jailing women who miscarry but shrugging when the deranged president says “a whole civilization will die tonight.” Do I have that right?
The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.
This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.
The Artemis II crew just named one of the moon's craters after crew commander Reid Wiseman's late wife, Carroll. A genuinely touching moment.
FYI, this gallery has all the photos NASA is sharing from Artemis II in one place, with descriptions.

A different perspective.
Always helpful.
As an exchange student, I lived in Sweden for a year—many years ago. This makes perfect sense.
Raised evangelical, I was unironically taught that catholics were going to hell. Hegseth’s dangerous extremism has no place anywhere near the pentagon.
This is no accident. If it feels performative it probably is performative. Same goes for trying to transcribe over the ideas of a brilliant woman whose work actually healed and continues to heal communities.

Music, like religion (or lack thereof, hopefully), is personal. I hate that they made fun of you for what brought you joy. At least your parents didn’t forbid you from listening to “devil music,” because that definitely sucked. 😭😂
