There is a hole the size of the Lincoln Tunnel waiting for a Democrat to go out to the Ellipse and start yelling about bulldozers.

"How do you expect to win back men...?"

We don't want those men. They are the hot dogs on the floor of humanity and we still have all these nice prepped hamburger patties if someone would just let them cook.

Honestly, no wonder Susan Collins doesn’t give a fuck what people in Maine think, lol. The most viable alternative y’all could come up with has a Nazi tattoo on his tiddy.

They couldn’t convince people the protesters were scary antifa supersoldiers so now they’re trying to dismiss them as weak and ineffectual grandmas

shocked to learn that the president lied about this and also this is a horrible defacing of a building that belongs to the people of the United States, not donald trump

Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

More people marched today than at any time in the history of the United States.

For @nytimes.com, it was the 6th most important story.

They are making sure that those in power do not see what they do not want to see.

This is not what we were brought up to think of as journalism.

Long day chanting “Go Birds, f-ck Trump” at No Kings. Well done, Philadelphia!

Crowded start to the Philadelphia No Kings protest, with soaring buildings and blue skies above

The train I’ll take to the protest today will be jammed with these good gray-haired folks

Yes. The 70somethings I know are super mad. If you’re a boomer whose parents fought in WWII, you fought in and/or protested war in 1960s-70s but either way repped the US, then did okay in American Dream (could afford college & house) a lot of this is a betrayal of what you thought America was about

Micah @rincewind.run · 7d

many conversations I have had with complete normie libs, the kind who have a tote bag from donating to NPR and shop at Whole Foods, involve the kind of rhetoric that under no circumstances should be put on the internet

people are very mad

The thing is, you know Mayor Mamdani is going to love a parade. Every campaign video of him out on the street schmoozing is basically a parade, and he’s too good at working the crowd to pass up those opportunities.

Had just about given up hope of Penn ever doing the right thing, so this seems like good news.

Just received from a colleague: looks like Penn is going to join the universities refusing the extortionary Trump "compact". I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

screenshot of an email saying:

"To the Penn Community:

For 285 years, Penn has been anchored and guided by continuous self-improvement, using education as a ladder for opportunity, and advancing discoveries that serve our community, our nation, and the world.

Since receiving the Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education on October 1, I have sought input from faculty, alumni, trustees, students, staff and others who care deeply about Penn. The goal was to ensure that our response reflected our values and the perspectives of our broad community.

Earlier today, I informed the U.S. Department of Education that Penn respectfully declines to sign the proposed Compact. As requested, we also provided focused feedback highlighting areas of existing alignment as well as substantive concerns.

At Penn, we are committed to merit-based achievement and accountability. The long-standing partnership between American higher education and the federal government has greatly benefited society and our nation. Shared goals and investment in talent and ideas will turn possibility into progress.

I am grateful to the Penn community for your thoughtful input and for what you bring to our University and our missions every day.

Sincerely,

J. Larry Jameson, MD, PhD
President
University of Pennsylvania"
