Tom Steyer on Prop 13 reform tonight: "On Day 1 I'll call for a special election to close a corporate tax loophole. The realtors are mad at me, they're fighting me, but that's the only way we drive down housing costs for the people of California."
Nothing but respect for MY candidate!
Finally got to Matt Reeves’ The Batman and it’s great to see a bunch of incels as villains.
But seriously - movie is great. Wildly more political than the previous Batman films. Love how the action is shot - nice antidote to Nolan’s editing style.
Nothing to worry about, just the Heritage Foundation publishing an article on how the Republican Congress can refuse to seat Democrats www.heritage.org/election-int...
We stan Louise Lucas
Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.
But this did not.
Virginia is for lovers… of direct democracy.
Well that sucked
The apparent theory here--SPLC was defrauding donors by paying right-wing extremist org informants, and also took completely legal steps for obscuring the money trail for very obvious reasons on this totally legal thing to do--is ludicrous even by the notoriously malleable standard for wire fraud.
Holy shit what a comeback by Atlanta.
I stand corrected - that was a fun challenge.
This promotional content for Cracker Barrel on Top Chef is brutal.
Ridiculous framing:
“The incident comes as Mexico prepares to be a host country for this summer's World Cup soccer extravaganza.”
Imagine printing that after every outburst of gun violence *in the United States.*
It’s gonna be a brutal fire season this year isn’t it. Season might be the wrong term…
Most of your travel takes are incoherent at best, signed someone who travels 2-3x a month.
US Southern Command: On April 19, at the direction of #SOUTHCOM commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Caribbean and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations. Three male narco-terrorists were killed during this action. No U.S. military forces were harmed. @DeptofWar #OpSouthernSpear UNCLASSIFIED
We murdered three more people in boats today
@williamfleitch.bsky.social The Lee Daniels’ The Butler situation was also a MPA issue:
He and Cole were a perfect pair — it’s amazing that Soderbergh / Solomon had them in mind before the script was finished, and then got them. Loved the movie.
Steyer’s profile is a lot like JB’s. I get the reticence to voting for a billionaire but I also think his political works and activism suggests he deserves to be heard out.
everyone who voted to confirm this assclown is wholly unfit to hold office
Things you say when Trump is about to fire you…
This is the correct relationship for a writer to have with her editor
Celtics - 76ers game one going about as expected.
Thinking about a friend of mine who worked on the 2015 Iran deal for a solid couple years of his life. It was a crowning diplomatic achievement that President Dumbass and the Republicans dismantled out of spite and stupidity.
And now this is very much where we are:
I mean, of course that’s what happening. It’s been clear the whole time
"Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial: Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later."
The degree to which 2026 has completely fucking sucked is hard to comprehend
Explosive & really outrageous revelations in here about a billionaire's private surveillance network completely run amok.
If we can't stop Dolan from spying on us at MSG, let's at least cancel his sweetheart tax break. (1/2)
He better spend his final five years writing bitter bitchy dissents.
Again the order of operations for 2029:
1. Strip SCOTUS jurisdiction.
2. Pack the Court.
3. OLC memo invalidating pardons.
4. Reset SCOTUS jurisdiction.
5. Indict the motherfuckers.
Wanted to spend my Saturday at a pool in Los Angeles but Delta Airlines decided I now live at the SLC airport.
