Speaking of Dred Scott, the decision in Shelby County to eviscerate the Voting Rights Act - based on the absurd premise that southern states' suppression of black voting rights was a thing of the past - was arguably the worst SCOTUS decision since Dred Scott, and one they may double down on shortly.

one thing i really resent is the way lizza, nuzzi and related parties have spent years acting like it’s their extreme reverence for american politics that allows them to slip inside the palace and tell their tales, regardless of party, when really they just wanted to be a part of the king’s court.

I'm sure the free speech warriors at the New York Times and the Atlantic will be all over this
Elon Musk, the guy who did two Nazi salutes in public and has previously described himself as a “free speech absolutist,” thinks it should be a crime to “falsely” call someone a Nazi or a fascist.

Even if one liked the guy, it would be hard to feel any sympathy for him, here. Like, you never get days off? You're constantly having to flatter the egos of sociopaths with delusions of grandeur? No shit, Sherlock! You're speaker of the US House of Representatives!

Oh man, his digestive system absolutely staged a rebellion the last time someone persuaded him to eat a vegetable, and it convinced him forever that he's right that actual food is poison
Eating Kale could probably poison him due to the shock of ingesting unprocessed, organic food.

This is that good esoteric Habsburg shit
Just a reminder that in addition to Trump refusing to exercise because he thinks the body is like an alkaline battery with a lifetime store of energy so anytime you do anything you steal that energy and it cannot be recharged, he's also a germaphobe who is afraid of being poisoned.

Jfc, that poor kid. His mom is getting deported and his dad (who I'm guessing will almost certainly get full custody) intentionally made it happen.
I think we can safely say that the Leavitt's brother called ICE on his ex, the mother of his child, and I have to say: I have no desire to respect, find common ground or share the country with these monsters.
“After Ferreira was detained, Dos Santos Rodrigues said Michael Leavitt Sr. and his father, Bob Leavitt, reached out to her.”
“‘They just kept saying, ‘Tell her to self-deport,’” she recalled. “Self-deport to where? Brazil is not her home.’” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/m...

All of the wording about Mike Lawler is technically accurate, but hoo-boy the design choices here are something to behold.

Oh huh it’s wild that the man exercising the powers of the presidency just became old. If only he had been old a year and a half ago when being old was bad.

Idg why certain dem pols still feel the need to do this song and dance with DOGE
We all believe in improving efficiency, and a team genuinely focused on that could do a world of good.
But the DOGE we could have had is a far cry from the DOGE we actually got.

Rolling Stone recently ran a really terrible headline that lets a huge environmental bad guy off the hook for giving people cancer. I'm already ratioing them on Twitter but would appreciate some eyes here as well
You absolutely need to change this headline. It's unacceptable and disrespectful to the people harmed by the pollution.
This article itself makes it clear that the water pollution linked to cancer and miscarriages is coming entirely from nitrate pollution from farms.

I don't want the executive chosen by national plebescite, Elie. I've had about enough of populism and I'd think you would have too. You can fix the proportionality problem with a bigger House, but as a resident of Rhode Island, I will keep my 4 ECs, thank you :)

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.
