Don't threaten us with a good time

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.
We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.
Please stand by for more.
Jon Ossoff didn't sugarcoat it.
"While you pay more for everything, the first family's wealth is growing by billions. Because they're crooks.
And everybody knows it." 💯

Yes!!
It's such a joy to live in CD10 and be represented in Congress by @maxwellfrost.bsky.social
New in PN: Trump's polling is terrible and getting worse
"As for the Jesus imagery he posted on Truth Social & then deleted? Well, new polling asked Americans about it, & about 60% disliked it (including 49% strongly). At this point, even Jesus would have a hard time resurrecting Trump’s numbers."
Kyiv today.
My dear phoenix.
I want the world to see it alive and strong.
Hungary has chosen Europe.
Europe has always chosen Hungary.
A country reclaims its European path.
The Union grows stronger.
one immediate dramatic consequence of the Hungarian result:
Magyar has promised to repair relations with the EU and unblock a €90bn EU loan for Ukraine
Tailor Bird sews leaves together with plant fibre to form its nest!
Except we’ve spent $50 billion, the Strait is closed and 3000 people are dead.

NEW US electricity data ⚡️🇺🇸
In March, renewables produced more than a third of US electricity for the first time ever, even overtaking gas generation!
Wind and solar combined reached over a quarter (26%) for the first time.
Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:
Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%
Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%
This is what a rigged system looks like.
It takes a lot of tiny movements to build something as big as universal childcare. We’re up to the task.
In 100 days, we’ve taken meaningful steps every day to make child care more accessible, affordable, and equitable for New Yorkers. Here are just a few of the milestones we’ve reached so far.
It's impossible to overstate the value and importance of Mamdani's visits to city workers on night shifts to highlight their otherwise invisible contributions to keeping NYC services functioning. Appreciation and respect are too often in short supply.
From your lips....
🇩🇪🇪🇺German Foreign Minister Wadephul said that in order to increase the efficiency of the EU, it is necessary to switch to a qualified majority system of decision-making.
Unanimity hinders the effectiveness of the EU in policy, especially in assistance to Ukraine and sanctions against Russia.
Good one!! I must have said/thought a 100+ times now that he needs to STFU. It's bad enough that everything the man touches turns to dross, but when he speaks, it's a 1000 times worse.
This 💯
It IS broken, but probably not beyond functional repair, although that will likely take a generation to accomplish; and regaining the respect and trust it had earned over several generations will take much longer.
I can't say I'm surprised by the nature of the crimes of his followers. But then, Trump has been loud and proud about his mysogyny, sexism, and predatory behavior toward women. Then there are the creepy photos w/ and musings about dating his daughter. They saw a fellow abuser in Epstein's BFF.
"Homeland Security Department pauses warehouse purchases as internal revolt, legal challenges, and political infighting cloud the program's future..."

Notes from the much larger and more significant war: in March Russia gained no net territory in Ukraine, and lost more soldiers than it was able to replace.
Honestly, words fail me as an American, as an attorney (ret.), and as a morally-grounded human being. The sheer volume of actions like this is astonishing. This President and his Administration are the embodiment of amorality.
Prior to Trump, the strait was open and there was a deal to curb Iran's nuclear program. Many, many more people also had not been killed.
Boomer men, except for the 86 yo. What a rogues gallery of amoral, corrupt, cruel, and personally cowardly men!
The Administrator of the 7 people left at USAID weighs in.
At $1.5 trillon the US Defense budget in 2026 is somewhere between 3 and 5 times Iran's total GDP.
The $200bn the White House wants from Congress as supplementary war funding is four times more than Iran's total government budget in 2025.
Please join me in supporting Free Press Action. In the current environment, with a rogue, ideological FCC Chair and right-wing billionaires buying up media outlets, we need Free Press Action more than ever.

really can't be said enough that this case was decided by the same court that decided plessy v. ferguson. if they could have found a plausible rationale to limit birthright citizenship they would have done it. but there is none! the text is as clear as constitutional language can be.
