So funny to watch commentators twist themselves into pretzels arguing that Trump's Iran "strategy" is all about China. It's not about China. It's about trying to find some way to avoid admitting he completely f-ed up.
They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files.
Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas.
You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.
Agreed. 100%
This is impressive work. She ate Russel Vought for breakfast.

Yes this is a good recipe for the way forward. It’s time for new blood.
remember a couple years ago, when sen. feinstein didn't know who or where she was, or what she was voting on, for a couple years, while her unelected staff covered up her condition and governed for her? if D's are serious about restoring trust in democracy, they need to put a stop to this stuff
The simplest explanation is not bad. It’s a fair overview.
Im happy to hear this. But really that 10 months in detention was unnecessary and seems punitive for no good reason. What are we doing ?
Meet Wendy Vega Lores. Such huge potential. Extinguished. There are so many stories like this. To our eternal shame.
Meritocracy is back, baby!
Staten Island traffic cameras have caught a white RAM 1500 pickup truck blasting through school zones or running red lights more than 547 times since 2022.

Yep. Here comes the chancla!
This is great news — for BOTH Ukraine and the EU! 🇺🇦🇪🇺
The US government is now one of if not the most corrupt government on earth.
Like my current pinned post says, the TRUE reason Repubs are mad about the Virginia gerrymandering is because they wanted that power to be exclusively theirs and theirs alone - and now it is not.
I wish Raskin and others would also say, especially when Rs say Ds are breaking their oath/values about gerrymandering:
“No, we didn’t break our word, and we didn’t gerrymander, the people did, by voting. You Rs gerrymandered behind closed doors because you didn’t want people to vote on it.
Yes. Though some displacement activities are better than others. It’s only 8.45 am here so I felt less bad about it.
Thank you. This prompted a fun five minutes. I scored an embarrassing 77 for St Louis, Missouri but 300 and something for getting within 10k of Helsinki. Got lucky with Helsinki, that’s where I did my Post -Doc at VTT.
More good -and important- news .
The moral turpitude of this administration, which whines endlessly about how no one does enough for America but condemns those who have put their lives on the line for Americans to the woodchipper, is dark, weak, and soulless

🙏 @mollymckew.bsky.social and the people of Hungary for this empowering thought for the day. There really are more of us. The people ‘are a thing’ and they have power. Hungarians have proved the point.
@mehdirhasan.bsky.social has a powerful opening question here: “why is an isolated, feckless, pro-Israel Chuck Schumer still in charge of the Senate Dems?”
The case for chucking out Chuck…

Yeah, there is absolutely no evidence that Kash Patel drinks on the job. He has an excellent defamation case against The Atlantic. Rock solid

BREAKING NYT:
The FBI began investigating a New York Times reporter last month after she wrote about Kash Patel using bureau personnel to provide his girlfriend with government security and transportation, according to a person briefed on the matter.
Patel should get the boot for this alone, but Trump probably likes it www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/u...
It would be nice to see alright! Likely he will drop it and/or find a way to back out before Discovery and try to avoid losing face. That’s the way they seem to roll.
