In my view, John Roberts's most impressive PR accomplishment is persuading an entire generation of Supreme Court commentators that he is anything other than a Republican politician who uses legalese to implement policies that Republican voters want

And how many democrats will vote to confirm him? :-(
Palantir CEO Alex Karp was paid $6.8 BILLION in 2025.
Palantir itself only made $1bn in profit.
What is he being paid for?
It's certainly not for making money.
Trump obviously sounds ridiculous here, but this is actually a masterful demonstration from Tim Cook on how to handle him: call him with an ask, but flatter him by framing it as some intractable business problem that can only be solved by the Master of Deals.

These cuties jumped at the chance to vote Union Yes! We’re so excited to welcome the newest kids on the block from Santee, CA!
They join the over 11,000 already Union Starbucks workers across the country!👏✊🎉
Conservatives think the state should protect them from the traumatizing experience of encountering people unlike them. For some reason this never came up in the heyday of “snowflake,” “trigger warning” or “safe space” discourse bsky.app/profile/kiss...
Folks, this is what a GWB second term cratering looks like, just earlier in the term. At ~35% approval, almost everything is on the table.
"changes to SNAP are happening alongside cuts to Medicaid. It leads to what Allen calls a “terrible synergistic effect” of people’s food being taken away and people getting sick because of it while health care is stripped away."

Opposing white supremacy is a crime in Trump’s America.
This feels a lot like southern states persecuting the NAACP during Jim Crow.
Weaken and decimate the troops so the regime can throw unlimited no bid work to defense contractors. It’ll be a Halliburton, Blackwater bonanza all over again.
A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek), with the handle @magyarpeterMP. The post reads: "Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General. On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation. If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then — on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office." At the bottom, the timestamp reads "3:04 AM • Apr 21, 2026" alongside "19.9K Views".
Peter Magyar is not playing around at all. He's going to purge every single remnant of corrupt Orbanism. This is exactly how Dems need to be when they retake power.
Corruption and graft
Holy hell. No one *earns* that much.
I do despair when I see people constantly saying that "no-one is reaching out to white working-class men". Rich white men control the world's most powerful algorithms. If they wanted to steer white working-class men towards all the fantastic advice on the internet they would. But they don't.

While we march into the midterms like a blue wave will really change anything (grateful as I am for it) when they aren’t willing to face the truth and deal with it.
They’ve had several chances to neuter Trump and kill the maga movement and have refused every time.
I don’t recall her hair looking that wiggy. It’s been quite awhile since I’ve seen a photo or footage of her though.

Trump 2.0 tried SO HARD not to be like Trump 1.0 with its endless, embarrassing stream of Cabinet/Administration officials resigning or being fired.
#Maddow is currently recounting how the bottom has now fallen out in 2.0…and with the worst remaining officials (Kash, Hegseth, Tulsi) still employed.
Screenshot of linked article from The Mirror UK The claims have not been confirmed and it is unclear what the nuclear codes would be used for should they be accessed. But it comes following reports that Donald Trump was barred from the Situation Room by military advisors during a critical Iran rescue operation. The US President was reportedly shut out of discussions amid concerns about his furious temperament. Top administration officials believed his volatility could compromise the operation. Following the downing of a US aircraft by Iranian forces earlier this month, Trump allegedly spent hours yelling at staff in the West Wing after being haunted by memories of the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis.
Not too many things the nuke codes CAN be used for so…?
Wonder how long until Hesgeth tries to have Caine or whoever else blocked Trump from the situation room, too. And if f you can’t even be in the meeting he def can’t fit to hold office of commander in chief.
