"Part of the reason the weaponization work has been difficult is that you need people who are MAGA and who are really competent," said Chad Mizelle, former chief of staff for Bondi. "Many career prosecutors are not interested in this kind of work. It's a very small group of people."

I'm pretty tuned into Democratic politics and I have never in my life heard anyone ever use the phrase "justice involved population."
But thank you for now vouching for the existence of that phrase and letting Fox News do a thousand pieces about it.

I just donate to official orgs instead. Mutual aid would be more ideal but you just can’t be sure, and there is legal risk when you give to individual accounts.

It is definitely a scam, and people acting like it isn’t have lost all reason. Not to mention the group or individual doing it has fraudulently purchased hacked accounts.

Omg. After they cut her trees, she just asked the neighbor for some replacement saplings, a tiny fraction of what she will get from suing.
They told her “nah, go ahead and call a lawyer,” and then cut more trees.
These people FA’d and they’re about to FO. They’ll probably lose their home!

NYT headline that says “Mamdani Endorses Lindsey Boylan, Who Accused Cuomo of Sexual Harassment.” The lede says “the endorsement, in a special election for a city council seat on Manhattan’s West Side, comes as the mayor seeks to build influence within the Council"
First & foremost, @lindseyboylan.bsky.social is more than deserving of this endorsement.
Second & just as important, fuck this headline. Lindsey didn’t accuse Cuomo of harassment. Cuomo harassed Lindsey. Period. She is not an accusor. She is a survivor-advocate. Show some respect. Report the truth.

Everyone who was going to buy a cybertruck already has one. Elon’s fanbase only goes so far, and there’s literally zero other reason to buy a fugly death trap for $90k that will get you straight up ridiculed in public

Started my taxes at 11 pm last night, lol, AND ONLY THEN DID I REALIZE I NEVER FILED A 2024 RETURN.
(Thankfully I basically have no taxes, bc essentially no income, bc student. I only owed a small amount for 2024 and I’m getting back more than that for 2025…still, my heart rate shot WAY up)

A screenshot of a Hollywood Reporter politics news article. The headline reads, "Dave Chappelle Knocks Republican Party for “Weaponized” Transgender Jokes: “That’s Not What I Was Doing”" The subheadline states, "After being called out for transphobic jokes, the superstar comedian told NPR that Lauren Boebert and other Republicans are politicizing his humor." Below the text is a photo of Chappelle in a black tuxedo speaking at a podium, with a caption noting he is accepting the President's Award at the 2025 NAACP Image Awards.
No, that's exactly what Chappelle was doing and it's why trans people criticized him for doing it.

As wealth concentrates, so does power — the power to influence elections, shape policy, tilt markets and define the terms of public debate.
Taxing billionaires is not radical.
What is radical is allowing a system where extreme wealth exists alongside widespread hardship.
