I think it’s probably bad that the democrats continue to get outflanked on Israel by antisemites like Marjorie Taylor green. In the absence of a Democratic Party that criticizes Israel on the merits of their actions we’ll get a Republican Party that just caves to open antisemitism

I swear this saga really opened my eyes to how horrendous it must be to be a full time streamer. Any time you have any kind of moment where you are worn thin and react to something harshly or say something you don’t mean it’s part of the public record forever and you can never live it down

I’m not shocked that a bunch of comics went to Saudi Arabia for the Riyadh comedy festival for giant sums of money. I am shocked that they thought people wouldn’t be mad at them

Mike Johnson: "We're so angry about it. I mean, I'm a very patient guy, but I've had it with these people. The theory we have right now -- they have a hate America rally that's scheduled for October 18 on the National Mall. It's the pro-Hamas wing and antifa people ... "

These people must be prosecuted when this is over. It won’t undo the evil that’s been done but it’s something. This cannot be allowed in a civilized country

Imagine being Chuck Schumer, a lifelong Jew and someone who has only ever criticized Israel in the absolute mildest of terms having to hear this fucking late life Catholic convert from Ohio tell you that you’re a traitor to your people. These people are sickening man. They are really below contempt

Alt text:
A collage of four tweets from Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) discussing concerns about artificial intelligence.

Top left tweet: Walsh warns that within a year or two, people will be able to create indistinguishable fake videos for defamation, and that nothing is being done to prevent this.
Bottom left tweet: He says AI will destroy jobs, art, reality, and civilization, yet no action is being taken to stop it.
Top right tweet: He criticizes AI-generated films as soulless and meaningless, saying art requires human expression and that AI will be the “death of art.”
Bottom right tweet: Walsh argues that if a robot paints a picture, the robot is the artist, not the person prompting it, because the robot lacks consciousness and meaning.

Marjorie Taylor Greene on CNN (!): "I'm getting phone calls from people that are saying if the ACA tax credits expire, they aren't gonna be able to have health insurance. They're going to have to drop it."

I don’t use one personally but used appropriately shock collars are fine. It’s a very light buzz

This is a good point about Italian American icon James Franklin

BenState @baney84.bsky.social · 3d

Do you ever think, "hey, maybe James Franklin's race and the weight of being a Biracial Black Man in an extremely white and racist area is playing a factor in the stress that's in his face?" Do you ever think "I wonder if the criticism is real or cherry picked to get him out"?

The funny thing is shock collars aren’t even abusive. Plenty of owners use them and as long as they’re set at an appropriate level it barely feels like anything

I kind of can’t believe this Bari Weiss quote is even real, and yet www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/b...

“I know that there are some people in this room who don’t believe that my marriage should have been legal … and that’s ok. Because we’re all Americans who want lower taxes.”

Larry Ellison is attempting to dominate the national media landscape with his obscene wealth to push pro Israel and pro Trump propaganda but on the other hand Bryce underwood is very good at football so you have to approach this situation with some nuance
