That is some deeply dystopian shit.
Painting the numbers on the field in Spanish next year and there ain't NOTHING the Fox News types can do to stop it
Megyn Kelly just shouting “FOOTBALL IS OURS” at Piers Morgan about Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl show is the perfect example of this moment in time. Put it in a time capsule and send it out into space.

Recently rewatched The Right Stuff and a couple other space race films and the biggest take away is if anyone in this country actually tried to do that today it would be such a spectacular failure it might bankrupt our entire society

Elon Musk's ambition to one day settle Mars appears to have taken a back seat for a rather nearer and more achievable goal – sending humans to live on the moon. https://cnn.it/46sbAMm

"One thing people find very off putting about me is my weird fucking diet so today, the day Americans traditionally gather and enjoy many beloved and relatable meat dishes - your various wings, ribs, chilis - I will obviously be eating the goop."
RFK Jr on what he'll eat during the Super Bowl: "I am on a carnivore diet so I just eat meat and ferments, and I'm very happy with that. So I'm probably going to have yogurt."

British people are really out here complaining that everyone makes fun of their food too much

OK hold the fuck on...

So the FLOTUS is a "private citizen" so any payments to her are immune to ethics rules? How in the actual fuck? Legal marriage in this country is, perhaps more than anything, a financial arrangement in which both partners share finances. If not...what the fuck is it?

Say what you want about the national viability of democratic sociaism (or even weak ass economic populism) it's pretty clear the real problem establishment Ds have with Mamdani is that he simply makes them all look old, boring, and shitty in comparison just by showing up

"Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal?

Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…

Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.

Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake."

Where were you when Trump shat his pants behind the Resolute Desk surrounded by national press?

Never. Forget.

So do I take my Soros check directly to the lumber yard to pick up my brand new wood or do I have to cash it first?
Trump on Mpls: "Do these people really want to have rapists and drug dealers and people from prisons and murderers, do they really want to have them in the community? It's really insurrectionists and agitators and they're paid ... everybody has a beautiful sign with brand new wood. Leather panels."

One thing I love to do with all of my friends is send emails. Just all day long email email email with the boys. It has the two benefits of being the least convenient way to communicate and everything we say is stored on a matrix of servers around the globe for whoever wants to read them later
January 31, 2026 at 5:07 PM
If you wrote an email in like 1995 and you thought it was completely anonymous and untraceable that would be understandable. To casually conspire to sex crime via Gmail in the 2010's is some weird Flatliner-type suicide pact shit

It does seem like it wouldn't be all that hard for Trump to drop like $50m buying out random Melania screenings just to save face. Should speak to just what a cheap fucking dick he is that they won't do it and are just going to let her rot on the vine

These motherfuckers are going to push language about putting Nazi ICE thugs on super secret double probation if they tear gas an infant and then give them $20 billion dollars. Then they're going to spam every one of us with fundraising texts for the next 6 months.

FUCK. YOU.

Absolutely wild that the democratic response to "ICE is breaking too many laws" is to simply change the laws so that most of what they're doing is actually fine, thereby dramatically cutting down on broken laws
Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said the party agreed on three main goals:

° Require warrants in some cases and ICE coordination with state and local law enforcement

° Create a code of conduct and enforce it

° Require agents to wear body cams and not masks
Democrats demand new ICE restrictions as government shutdown looms
After federal agents shot and killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, Senate Democrats say they’ll block a massive government funding package without policy changes.

We all need to be spending more time imagining the rustic Italian village where Greg Bovino's family got their name

"Oh those people? Fucking cows, the lot of them. BOVINO."

Miller was always the worse of the two but this feels an awful lot like when they shit canned Bannon in Trump 1.0. It was a different time and who knows what the senile king actually knows or cares about but they are definitely in flotsam dump mode
Trump is nothing if not ready to sacrifice anyone and anything in order to save his own ass and the single most important thing that could happen right now is someone convincing him that the biggest driver of his unpopularity is not just Bovino and Noem but Stephen Miller personally
Feels like Trump is pretty much unconditionally surrendering as support collapses

"You're allowed to protest, you're just not allowed to ORGANIZE beforehand. And actually you're also not allowed to protest."

Abolish ICE is too radical a slogan? Well fuck it now it sounds pretty milquetoast.

(Also I wholeheartedly agree with the new slogan)
We’re airing a new campaign ad, starting tomorrow.

Here it is:

Honest question:

What the fuck is @ilhanmn.bsky.social doing RIGHT NOW?
January 25, 2026 at 12:46 AM
Pretty wild that there is absolutely no need for any ICE presence in Texas, Arizona, or New Mexico. No immigration issues there at all huh? Crazy.

The gas masks are for protection against the gas YOU are shooting at US. So it is illegal to even passively protect ourselves from your violence? If we don't say "Thank you sir may I have another" while we gulp down your tear gas then we should be killed?
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

Very funny seeing "I don't see how shutting down the TSA helps any of this" takes

Because the entire country needs to be ground to a fucking halt! This is a DEFCON 1 emergency! Anyone comfortable enough to not feel the appropriate sense of dread needs, at least, an 8 hour airport ordeal!

I don't know how any sane D politician can watch this and think this organization can be reformed or fixed in any way. You would have to fire 90% of them no matter what so why on earth wouldn't you simply shut it down and distribute necessary functions to more stable law enforcement orgs?
