Big news out of Indiana today as Republican legislators surprise everyone by saying no to Donald Trump.

Each crack in Trump’s facade of inevitability will lead to more. Let’s keep it up!

the through line of "got an accidental nazi tattoo while drunk" to "regularly takes shirt off at the bar" to "starts a senate campaign with no experience and no plan to address any of this" to "gets a terrible coverup overnight" is "total lack of judgment and impulse control"

"Oh so there's no path to redemption?" Sure there is. Most paths to redemption don't run through the U.S. Senate, though. Go, live a good life. Farm oysters. Diminish and go into the East and be an always improving Graham Platner. Do not be a Senator. And remove that fucking tat.

Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time.

All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner."

It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.
Why would it be surprising if Bratton were trying to hollow out the department and thereby sabotage performance metrics under Mamdani?
my kind of cringe. 💪

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

Steve — in your experience, how long does it take for something this important?
Days? Weeks?
I don’t think there’s much time before incitement occurs.

Russia continues expanding its operations pouring African and Middle Eastern migrants into Europe, having now recruited Libyan assistance.

Gaining support for far-right-pro-Russian political parties is really as simple as this.

Public reporting, which JPMC has not disputed, shows that executives including the head of JPMC’s private bank for the ultra-wealthy, were warned repeatedly about Epstein but kept him on as a client.

I was scrolling through the app that shows today’s front pages. Unsurprising, but still annoying, that the vast majority of Florida newspapers didn’t acknowledge the protests at all.

It's less than 24 hours after 5-8 million Americans marched against a president who called them domestic terrorists, and there is zero reference to it on the current NYT home page, except for a Bouie op/ed that came out several days earlier.

every single pro-democracy user of this app needs to call their living parents and grandparents *now* and tell them that CBS News and 60 Minutes are no longer reliable sources of unbiased information.

Don’t let the frogwater that’s boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another country’s citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. That’s freakish.
Petro objected to the US bombing a Columbian fishing vessel that had the emergency beacon on because they were broken down, that we subsequently bombed. One Columbian fisherman survived the attack.

This is the official US response to Petro's comments.

GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%. These results are likely to support the first approval of a genetic treatment for the rare neurodegenerative condition.

So this is what's above the fold in today's NYT, while the protests get two photos below the fold and a piece on A23. I know I shouldn't be surprised at this point, but damn.
