TIM DILLON: “Get over it. We’re taking the money.” Some of the biggest 🇺🇸 comedians will get $1 Million+ for 1 show in SAUDI ARABIA. Dillon says he’s getting paid to look the other way— and slaves there are probably proud of building nice hotels. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DOEESmI...
YES I YELLED AT THE SCREEN WHEN THIS HAPPENED
I first fought alongside Jerry Nadler when we took on a corrupt bankruptcy system that was rigged against working families. When New Yorkers needed a champion, Nadler always had their backs. He’s a man of principle, and I’m deeply grateful for his years of public service.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of opportunistic fascists.
Anyone else quietly wondering if Giuliani's chauffeured Ford Bronco was white?
So, the statement by the NH cops paints a slightly different picture, and a less misleading one. Basically, Giuliani was in a car driven by someone named Goodman - after calling the cops on a domestic disturbance, they got rear-ended by some kid and both Goodman & Giuliani were injured.
Bingo. The first paragraph of that statement has absolutely nothing to do with the second paragraph of that statement, except as a self-serving bit of chaff meant to confuse. Apparently, Forbes is easy to confuse.
This, exactly. And as that was the only "authorized statement" provided, apparently Forbes either flunked reading comprehension or they have a different statement from a different source.
That's NOT what they said. Pretty clear that the second paragraph of the only authorized statement provided by Giuliani indicates that the crash occurred later. The first paragraph of that statement had nothing to do with the second paragraph, and the whole point of including it was... well, this.
Fatality.
I'm sorry, but... when did he become a mayor again?
NEW: Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” will hand out $67 BILLION to companies next year to "incentivize" research these companies did YEARS ago. That means next year, the federal government will spend five times more on these handouts than what it spends annually on child care.
Raddatz: "One of the things that they're trying to do in D.C. with the National Guard is have them back up federal law enforcement." Gov. Wes Moore: "They're picking up trash."

I seem to remember that "taxation without representation" was a sticking point for us, early on... Illegal tariffs, applied arbitrarily & forced on us indirectly through importers as sales tax, without ANY representation; GOP-led Congress giving Trump autocratic power & ignoring "we the people."
Huh. I've never heard of temps being "put on leave" before. I mean, sure, it's a disingenuous answer, but it'd be nice if she could lie a little better on her feet, especially for a question that a ten-year-old could've anticipated...
My wife is in a similar situation - rheumatoid & osteo arthritis. During the pandemic, I had to explain to folks that, no, I won't be coming/visiting/exposing myself to COVID because I won't be the vehicle that infects my wife. Vaccines save lives.
A clip of a man snatching stealing a hat meant for a child from tennis player Kamil Majchrzak went viral, and it’s resulted in instant karma for the man identified as Polish CEO Piotr Szczerek www.dexerto.com/entertainmen...
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
I mean, other than the fact that I'm watching it happen in my own workplace, in real time, sure. Sure, let's go with that.

Given the bruising on the backs of both hands, it seems likely that he's receiving IV treatment of some form. He knows that photos are inevitable, so it's not driven by appearance. Medication interfering with speech, perception, or gait, maybe? Drug-induced language disorder?
I mean, sure, it's obvious and moronic propaganda, but... they themselves can't actually believe the tripe they're spewing, right?!
*Empress, but, yeah. Right in my friggin' meow-meow.
Compare this with the lies and disingenuous statements he made during his Senate confirmation hearing.
RFK Jr: “If you’ve ever compared an unvaccinated kid to a vaccinated kid… you see the bright eyes, the engagement, the social interactions, the curiosity. And you compare them to the child who even had one or two vaccines, and they’re completely different.“ This man is an existential threat.
👏👏👏 Governor Newsom strikes again!!
Witkoff, at wit's end. This is what happens when the length of one's wit can only be described as "stubble." And, of course, when Trump's pushing you forward with the point of the same dagger with which he's going to inevitably stab you in the back, well... www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
I'm just glad it's bullshit instead of fetishists.
SHARPTON: “I don’t endorse candidates, but I do take attendance.” 👀 Rev Al noted Cuomo & Adams were absent from the “March on Wall St” to protest Trump’s assault on DEI and attempts to control Democratic-led cities led by Black mayors… But @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social was there.
Two knee-jerk reactions: 1) the other one matches, and; 2) bars are a solid choice.
I'm, at least chronologically speaking, a grown-ass man, and I still can't see the Princess pleading without tearing up a little.
Part of me wants to write "The Omen," just for fun, but truthfully I think the first movie that ever made me cry was "Born Free." (Yeah, I'm old.)
Well, yeah. The peasants are revolting.

@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
Yep, you're correct - I misspoke. Still, the point stands in that the refunds are going to further undermine the justification for the giveaways in the BBB.
To be fair, Trump can be "outplayed" by a ham sandwich.
Hey @governorwalz.mn.gov please hop right on this bandwagon!
If this decision is upheld on appeal, imagine the screaming as all that money has to be given back to the countries of origin, with interest, because Trump wanted to be a dictator and the GOP wanted to rule instead of govern. Imagine how the BBB giveaways are going to be funded after that...
You’re saying that telling your constituents they don’t need healthcare because they’re gonna die anyway isn’t winning politics?
Some perspective…

Jim O'Neill recommends seawater and wishful thinking for the treatment of injuries and illnesses, while RFK Jr. suggests rubbing your wounds with raw sewage and cod liver oil because there's no progress without pain and infection builds character - if you were meant to heal, you'll heal.
The next days and months and years will demand from all of us great courage — and solidarity. Be prepared.
It's about ideology, not intelligence. RFK Jr. is a good foot soldier for "the cause," not someone who's going to get confused by things like facts, evidence, statistics, and observable reality. Just like the seasteading Thiel chucklehead that's going to be the "acting" replacement.
I mean, that's the job description for so many in the Trump administration. The creepy Cabinet cheerleading, the lies & BS from the WH press sec'y, the complete abandonment of Congressional duty by the GOP - it's all there to make Trump a dictator and the GOP the ruling party.
I'm nostalgic for the time I didn't know what a "Mike Johnson from Louisiana" was. He is a horrible, servile enabler with no moral compass.
American multinational brands reaped the benefits of our country's reputation when it was tolerable. Let's see how it goes now that our country's reputation has been destroyed by Donald J. Trump and his Republican Party friends. www.newsweek.com/india-boycot...
Inhuman. “I don’t have any choice” is a lie.
Again, this is a GOP-led Congress essentially empowering a dictator. They've entirely abrogated their duties, undermined democracy, and lie about & avoid their own constituency to do so. The fastest way to get this to stop is to vote GOP members out of Congress. No majority? No dictator.
ME: "AI Chatbot, create an image of shameless, servile sycophants kissing the ass of the stupidest person in the United States to ever get famous." AI CHATBOT: "That image already exists."
What "clash?" The Republican-led Congress is going to roll over because if the GOP believes anything, they believe that Trump is allowed to do whatever he wants even if it means violating their own oaths and abrogating their own duties. Tariffs, treaties, D.C. occupation, insane EOs - that's on them
If I were charged with a federal crime, I’d hire Pam Bondi’s brother as my lawyer. Because I don’t think this is a coincidence.

We must rid ourselves of this FELON president. Then we must rid ourselves of the Supreme Court Justices who don't defend our US Constitution. To do this we must vote out every every one of his supporters in congress and in state and local office who and are supposed to represent us.
Neat! You know who else tried desperately to hide their atrocities so that their majority could feel more "comfortable?" www.history.com/articles/how...
"The media seems to have accepted Leavitt’s 'frequent handshaking' diagnosis. But photos from last Saturday showed Trump with bruising on his left hand too. Are we to believe he’s double-fisting his handshakes now?"
Donald Trump wants to turn the Federal Reserve into his own bank. We need to pause all Fed nominations amid his illegal takeover attempt and hold a hearing on how it will raise costs on American families instead.
Current, continuous mood:
I mean, I'm thinking the same thing, but only because said tragedy needs to take Trump, Vance, and as many of the Cabinet kiss-asses as possible out at the same time. It truly would be a tragedy if that demented racist croaks only to let JV Dunce take over...
Ashli Babbitt died doing what she loved—being a domestic terrorist.
Neat spin. Not "Multiple CDC leaders have resigned after watching their director get canned after refusing to break the law and refusing to resign for not breaking the law." I mean, you did notice that they didn't resign after the layoffs or the shooting, right?!

Oh, honey . . . JD Vance isn't even ready to be *vice* president.
Hi, immunologist here: (a scientist who studies immune & inflammatory processes) RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation” That’s NOT how immunology works. He is an anti-science profiteer. Start calling him such.
Good. I have questions and the American people deserve answers.
More of this, please! Until people understand just how much damage the Trump administration's doing during this "bloodless coup," until they start to hurt and lose and suffer, calling attention to what's happening is the only way to possibly preventing more of it.
Well, yeah. This administration views "women" as "chattel," not "people." Completely understandable.
Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around. Get involved with the @democraticredistricting.com as they fight back: bit.ly/3HJ1ayW
...the hell?!
The idea of the White House passionately advocating for military occupation of American cities without any justifiable reason, and doing so openly during press conferences rife with lies and misinformation, was once relegated to dystopian speculative fiction.
Refusing to act, then falsely accusing those who want to see something tangible done to protect kids of attacking prayer on top of it, is doubly shameless.
Little kids are having to use their bodies to shield friends from gunfire while armed soldiers are busy picking up trash.
Dictators gonna dictate. Trump shames the office every day he occupies it. The Republican Party needs to be held accountable for their efforts to destroy representative democracy and everything that depends on it as a foundation, including free speech.
GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Facts are stubborn things… Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas…. Alabama is a top 3 murder state. Where is the President? — He isn’t focused on crime & violence. It’s about an expression of authoritarianism.” (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )
Congress approved his appointment, despite knowing full well that he was going to do all of this, because he lied his ass off in his confirmation hearings about what he was and wasn't going to do. What he said in those hearings vs. what he said before, and did after, should be actionable.
He's had to deal with both Trump and Putin, while running a country under unprovoked attack. It's not a stretch.
He wants to go where everybody knows his name, but Hell has terrible restaurants full of lounge singers...
The idea, of course, is that once our government has a stake in a company, the government can slowly exert its will. "National security" is going to come up a lot more when it comes to whom a company can and can't sell, I suspect, along with punitive measures for both company and customer...
"Abruptly departs," my ass. She was removed after refusing to resign, after refusing RFK Jr.'s ridiculous demands on the grounds of, y'know, actual medical science. And we're going to see more of this, as those with skills and education retreat from fools with conspiracies and lies.

I’m shocked and heartbroken for those poor children in my hometown of Minneapolis, but also beyond angry at all the powerful people who have sacrificed so many kids to their sacred gun cult over so so many decades. Yes, only actual material action matters at this point - here, in Gaza, everywhere.
New in PN: Trump's flag burning executive order flames out "This is a blatant attempt to transform protected speech into criminal conduct, despite decades of SCOTUS precedent barring just that. And it was immediately challenged by a veteran who set fire to an American flag just across from the WH."
Any time the Trump administration can reverse a Biden administration decision - and, ideally, punish everyone involved in the process while rewarding traitors and grifters - is a good time for them. They're openly trolling America, because they can.
Good. Do not comply in advance. Force them to commit their own evils. Force them to own their own sins. They want you to do it so they can wash their hands and say, "hey, that was their choice."
I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.
“My friend got hit in the back… my friend Victor saved me, he laid on top of me…” We are failing them.
I detest that in just one week this story is gone from the media cycle. An Israeli citizen & report of Netanyahu was charged & arrested for attempting to rape a 14-year-old child. He was bailed out & flew back to Israel, despite an Aug 27 court date. WHY??? www.qasimrashid.com/p/netanyahu-...
