Jay Bhattacharya has ordered that a paper showing the effectiveness of COVID19 vaccines in preventing severe disease and hospitalization be suppressed and hidden.
This man has been crying nonstop about political censorship for 6 years.
But he’s the one who is actually doing it.
i think it is cool that the president of the united states routinely slurs black people as biological inferior
Trump knows that everyone understands what "Low IQ person" means when he says it but the press isn't willing to write it. He knows they will always cover for him and he loves that he can get away with it. He's used so many old timey racist terms he hopes no one knows but he also does this

screenshot of April 21 Wash PO editorial board: "Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss The redistricting scheme was always a power grab by Democrats. Voters went along with it."
listen hun if you can't handle the Washington Post editorial board at their the Texas gerrymander "freakout" is "not a threat to democracy" you don't deserve them at their "Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss"
I'm picturing a teenager, hardened by gang violence and drug use, showing up to the recycling machine with nothing but a bag of cans and hope for the future
I legit don't remember my SAT score, and only remember my ACT results because I took it twice and got the same score
you're right of course, but also I wish I could visit an alternate universe just to see what Philip Seymour Hoffman would've done with it. both are uniquely gifted at being the most memorable part of any scene, regardless of the genre or size of their role. maybe I just miss PSH 💔
Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

Just remember when you yell at Hurricane Nana, this is who you're yelling at
seriously hope when dems get back in power they go after every single fuck involved with DOGE
1 year ago today I was terminated by DOGE from USAID where I worked to get humanitarian aid into Gaza. Everyone I knew across almost 10 years of my career across 3 prior jobs became unemployed as well. My entire LinkedIn network suddenly became "open to work"
I'm a one issue voter. Punishment.
Every headline I read about this year's NFL draft class is some version of "The consensus #1 pick is good, everyone after him is a mixture of boring and the worst prospect we've ever seen"
Actual historians of the New Deal -- trained scholars, not partisan hacks -- have been savaging her nonsense for decades now but I guess if she's telling you what you want to hear that must feel good.
Here's @rauchway.bsky.social:
I'll simply say again that for Shlaes to resurface in The Economist at this moment is an indicator of an ambient concern that Rooseveltian policies and politics are increasingly likely. The thing about the New Deal is, it was *immensely popular.* That's terrifying to certain people
Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."
Best day of the year to have a riverfront office view. I loved air shows as a kid, quoted Top Gun relentlessly, built model planes, just a total aircraft nerd. My mom got me to ride roller coasters at that age by saying they’d never let me fly planes if I was too scared to get on them.
that they are freaking out this badly over a surtax on second homes worth more than five million dollars - the most excessive rich person thing imaginable, which doesn’t even affect most of them - really makes it clear how little attention you need to pay to the freak outs
Every day a different billionaire says the most horrific movie villain thing you've ever heard but this guy and a grandpa from Vermont are the scary ones because they want to tax them
The fact that Mamdani just seems like a cheerful normal guy who's policies are things like "we're going to tax second homes to fund pothole repairs" or whatever and yet this generates panicked responses like "This is basically Stalin's great purge turned up to eleven" is... telling. It tells things.
Not everything that breaks is technically the fault of vibe coding but the kind of culture that would foster vibe coding is the kind that produces a lot of shit that breaks.
I love how this place is never fully broken, or fully working, but now a secret third thing where it feels like you're scrolling the feed on a dialup modem
I know this is @davidjroth.bsky.social's bit, but no quote has ever sounded more like a coach who's 2-8 (1-7 in conference) whose starting QB is already in the portal and whose entire defensive backfield is liking and reposting videos of him tripping over his headset cable
we know
"Some people say we should throw up as much housing as possible to lower prices, but we can’t let big developers reap the rewards of our housing market. I should reap those rewards; I’m the one who purchased a new home in a redlined suburb on a week’s salary in 1975."

You can rightly admire this for Zohran's ability to deliver messaging, but what I appreciate is just how mad it's going to make people who own a secondary residence in NYC worth over $5 million. They do not inhabit the same reality as the rest of the world, so their suffering is metaphysical anyway.
DOJ Rapid Response • O @DOJRR47 X.com Yesterday the Department of Justice filed a motion to vacate the convictions of several Americans who had received clemency from President Trump. This ends these years-long, Biden-era weaponized prosecutions. President Trump demanded we stop the two-tiered injustice—and we are delivering. No more rigged system. 1:32 PM • 4/15/26 • 6.7K Views
The individuals referenced here are adjudicated terrorists.
They were found guilty of conspiring to use force against their own government to prevent the peaceful transfer of power.
A conservative, Trump-appointed judge applied terrorism enhancements to their sentences.
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.
No business as usual in the Senate. The only reasonable response from Democrats is to throw sand in the gears at every turn.
🎧LEVER TIME: The secret 40-year plot to bury you in tax paperwork & force you to pay accountants - rather than letting the IRS send you your completed tax returns like other countries do.
This story is enraging - it's a GOP plot to enrich tax prep companies & make you hate taxes.
Can someone out there please count up all the CPAC speakers who ranted about George Soros funding left wing causes?
Be sure to take breaks and stretch every hour or two.
