Exhuming McCarthy or Can’t Get There From Here.
Says the foremost devil incarnate.
What a lapdog.
What a snowflake.
Clear projection here. What a messed up person.
Impeach him!
Agree. Drop him to like 7th in the order until he cuts down on Ks. Or just bench him more often.
So if a group of men -- all of them wearing masks, with no uniforms or badges visible, driving unmarked cars -- approach anyone on the streets of DC, they're just supposed to submit?
The great and powerful Oz has spoken. 🤦🏻
I am congenitally resistant to conspiracy thinking, but this really does feel like a eugenic plot. There is some dark, pseudo-Darwinian thinking on the right that equates illness with moral unfitness, and prefers that the weak die, indeed demands that they be culled. Truly a death cult.
Knicks vet minimum roster spot? OAKAAK.

“We don’t erase history” says the sentient can of body spray who took Medgar Evers and Harvey Milk’s names off Navy ships
Miguel Cairo channeling his inner Isiah Thomas - it’s so crazy, it might just work! Not.
Proud of traitors.
He’s too afraid.
Until a court starts throwing people in jail for violating it orders, this sh*t is going to continue.
Oh man. Do I now have to boycott Apple?
These people have lost their freaking minds.
Preach, Barack. Preach!
Sadly, he is a fellow law school alum.
A disconcerting number of high status people upended their worldviews because other people did not affirm that status in the way they thought appropriate. And social media accelerated this because for high status people it is often the experience of people telling you that you are wrong.
Come on, Cory. Endorse the Democratic nominee. Or are you beholden to some other candidate?
Jeffrey Epstein and a thousand victims is what happens when moral depravity meets extreme income inequality.

How do the budget cuts to NOAA impact you? One of the nation's leading experts in meteorology, @johnmoralestv.bsky.social, breaks it down and warns that, “You are less safe this hurricane season due to these cuts from the U.S. government and the executive branch.” Did you vote for this, America?
This is a meteorologist, NOT a politician, warning of the dangers of gutting the National Weather Service and NOAA. Dozens of children and adults have died. This is real. MAGA doesn’t care. WE care and will never stop advocating for Americans.
Pulling a quote from Mr. Potter in “It’s a Wonderful Life” is an appropriate choice.
Again, I’d like to encourage the people who think it’s a good idea to embrace a cruel and capricious dictatorship, while making it clear no legal or legislative authority can stop them from ruining ordinary people’s lives, to keep on reading to see what usually happens next.
Such a good point on SCOTUS hypocrisy when it comes to Trump vs Biden: They let a nationwide injunction kill Biden’s student loan relief when they had a chance to rule on it. 5 months into Trump’s presidency, suddenly nationwide injunctions are a grave threat to executive power and they must rule.
"For the child born this summer in Texas, whose parents receive no documents, whose name never appears in any system, and who grows up asking why she can’t go on field trips, apply for scholarships, or open a bank account, the consequences are not legal theory. They are her life."
You’ve seen this movie before: Maybe Reagan guessed, Bush hoped, and Trump tried—but tax cuts never paid for themselves. Given the mountain of evidence, claiming once again that "tax cuts will pay for themselves" is no longer ideologically motivated optimism. It's a lie.
Sochan doesn’t count?
Wait... is this the best meme ever made?
First half personal fouls: NYK 16 and IND 10.
A reminder that as Trump advances a bill to give himself a huge tax cut and f--k over working people, he's probably pocketed a billion dollars this week from illegally exploiting the Presidency. Pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, sloth - Trump is a walking embodiment of the 7 deadly sins.
Jorge Lopez is now tied for the MLB lead with 6 wins despite a 7.20 ERA (and despite the fact he's a reliever).
Not surprising, because the president’s brain activity is only intermittent too.
Chicago too.
Sure feels like the GOP doesn’t give a rat’s ass about its constituents. Stripping 7.6 million Americans of health care without batting an eye is hateful. Don’t Mess With Medicaid #MomSky
Congressional Republicans dropped their bill to cut healthcare for millions of Americans. 7 insane things that will happen if this passes🧵👇🏻
“The first 100 days of the Trump administration will go down in history as the greatest grift in the history of our economy in terms of the amount of money stolen and the size of it over the shortest period.” -Scott Galloway
~45% of US corn production is now used to make ethanol, mostly for mixing into gasoline. That's ~13% of all US crop land already used for energy production. Using some of the same land for solar panels would capture 50-100 times more energy per acre.
If you haven’t noticed, the Knicks’ bench has been MIA all season.
“One of them is a 4-year-old with Stage 4 cancer who was deported without medication or the ability to contact their doctors, the family’s lawyer said.” Thinking about the types of people who participated in this atrocity. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.
What say you, @jhu.edu ?
Rubio is actually undermining the rule of law. So WTF, Marco.
A microcosm of this administration.
DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States
They’re crazy, but not that crazy. So, instead, we should all cower in fear?
Obama needs to be even more visible and outspoken about this administration.
Law professor here: Things are F-U-C-K-E-D up.
If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.
I have as much experience in Silicon Valley as Andreesen has with higher ed, so I'm just going to start asserting that every tech company is riddled with fraud and abuse and waste and needs to be destroyed because I say so. Wow, it's fun to spout ignorance! I can see the appeal.
JB clearly ready for the Celtics tonight.

America just did a Brexit, didn't it.

And the same guy was in the White House then. Such an idiot.
Defence Ministry: Shoreline defence force Gentoo’s prepare mortars. Our Navy Seals conduct clandestine training, and teach tactical camouflage and concealment to juveniles. We stand ready. Flippers Up.
DOGE/Musk preferentially cancelled grants and contracts to recipients in counties that voted for Harris in 2024. Among cancellations with election data available, 92.9% and 86.1% cancelled grants and contracts went to Harris counties, representing 96.6% and 92.4% of total dollar amounts.
Maybe they don’t care enough to think about it - because they don’t think deeply about most things, including who they vote for president - but I don’t think most would be fine with the president picking on a single business, law firm or not.
Con law prof here. This shit is WILD. "Plenary authority, derived from Article II and the mandate of the electorate" to disappear whoever the state deems a terrorist is not a fucking thing in any kind of constitutional democracy. It's unvarnished tyranny.
What happened when the editor of @theatlantic.com was included on Mike Walz's group chat www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
“The reason I knew this is that Pete Hegseth, the secretary of defense, had texted me the war plan at 11:44 a.m. The plan included precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing.” www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA
Something we haven’t focused on enough is that the Trump administration isn’t just deporting people without process, it’s deporting them & incarcerating them in inhumane conditions in a third country. And we are paying for that cruel & unusual punishment that our government is imposing.
The judge needs to hold the attorneys and senior agency management in contempt. Throw someone in jail and maybe they’ll stop disregarding court orders.
"DOGE is not about efficiency. It is about erasure. Democracy is being deleted in slow motion, replaced by proprietary technology and AI models. It is a coup, executed not with guns, but with backend migrations and database wipes." www.notesfromthecircus.com/p/the-plot-a...
Life-sized?
Every day destroying this country more. What a fucking jerk.
Under Biden we did.
I had to bring this here because it’s so good
Play the kids. Heck, play everyone until you find the best combination.
Without JB, the offense is not going to be great. Maybe expand the bench rotation as a defensive, pressing unit by adding Delon Wright, along with Mitch, Deuce, and a wing or two. Win ugly until Cap gets back.
With his permission, I'm sharing Dean Treanor's response to Ed Martin's letter:
The Trump administration is: *breaking the law by not spending appropriated money from Congress *breaking the law by ignoring a court order *lying about it *killing people *silencing public employees who are pointing all of this out
He’s too afraid to cross the boss.
Just got fired from being a freshman football coach, if you want to know what MAGA does to communities. They don’t care about what helps people, because the school is certainly not going to find an ex-NFL player willing to coach there at that level, they only care about trying to hurt people.
The roster is clearly still in transition. They knew that when they acquired KAT and went to the brink of the second apron. Whether KAT at the 5 can work is also still an open question.
Paging Andy Beshear.
The real answer is that it went to Sacks and his rich brethren through tax cuts that NEVER paid for themselves.
@toddgillman.bsky.social
The numbers of people in *every* state who will be affected by Medicaid cuts at the $2T scale in the House budget is truly devastating. This will mean: *Nearly complete loss of rural health care *Inability to pay for elder care in nursing homes *Death sentences for those with chronic disease
The United States is now an open kleptocracy. The Constitution has been suspended to allow the wealthiest man in the world to loot and destroy the federal government.
This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!
They. Don’t. Care.

@warren.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @whitehouse.senate.gov are you all going to do ANYTHING about this?
This is illegal. Only Congress can shut down an agency or department. Someone needs to take this to court.
Knicks have been off for three days. Tough on a team’s continuity
Just received this photo from a friend of a warehouse in Kinshasa. These are tuberculosis medications--ALREADY PAID FOR--that aren't being distributed due to the Trump Administration's stop work order. TB treatment is being interrupted in SO many patients around the world. What does that mean? (1/2)
One of the key points of non-violent direct action is to force the authorities to stop you -- to force their hand, to make them arrest you, and yes, perhaps even make them lash out in violence -- and to broadcast those images to an otherwise apathetic public. Be confrontational, not compliant.
