I just now searched NY Times for info on Trump's illness or bruised hand or health concerns - nothing came up. They spent weeks covering Biden's age after the debate. Their bias is quite stunning.

Those interviews are in the files. Kuvin says Alan Dershowitz scoured the girls' MySpace pages to smear them as liars.

Imagine at your summer internship a guy gives a talk about how women generally have lower IQ. It's awkward enough that a senior administrator later explains that the talk was inappropriate. Now, imagine reading that the President has nominated this person to lead a major govt agency!

Antoni made the remarks about intelligence in a discussion with summer interns at Heritage in 2024. He said that women’s IQs generally clustered around average scores, while men’s IQs varied more between “geniuses” and low-intelligence individuals, said the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retribution. Shortly afterward, Roger Severino, Heritage’s vice president of domestic policy, spoke with the interns and said Antoni should not have shared that viewpoint, one of the people said. Severino told the interns that Heritage had no official position on the question of gender IQ differences, the person told The Post.

Gunfire hasn’t stopped for an entire hour. Helicopters are flying above us at a lower altitude than usual, while quadcopters are firing bullets randomly. Every five minutes, three shells fall in succession. What is this madness? What is this madness! We can see our souls leaving our mouths.

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."

The Sulzbergers making sure the New York Times always reports dictatorial orders without mentioning the lack of legal power to make them. Because majoritarian democracy is not what they want either. bsky.app/profile/nyti...

Join us for a rally and march starting at 11 a.m. on Monday (Labor Day) at Chicago's Haymarket Memorial to protest Trump's planned military occupation to crush our dissent and force our compliance with cruelty. We will resist.

"...it’s still important to point out when they’re lying. And everything they’re claiming in justification of the deployment of National Guard troops to DC is a lie." This piece by @radleybalko.bsky.social is chock full of much needed fact checks & context: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

NEW: A week or so ago, one federal agent kept popping up in videos from Trump's violent DC crackdown—so @jsweetli.bsky.social and I investigated. Turns out he's a 26-year-old US Parks Police officer, a lesser known law enforcement unit currently championed by Interior Sec. Doug Burnum. Our report:

Because they’re pussies. They’re afraid of saying outright that Trimp doesn’t have the power or authority d you can tell it’s bogus because the constitution also doesn’t say it implicitly. They threw explicit in there to soften it, to leave the door open to giving Trimp benefit of doubt. #weak

Bumping what I wrote the night he quit the Raiders Jon Gruden's emails made clear he's a racist, sexist, homophobe. That doesn't just make him a bad person (thought it obviously does!), it makes him a bad football coach, because you need to work with Black people, gay people, and women to win

the story is not just "Jon Gruden wrote emails about how Black people are stupid," it's "Jon Gruden wrote emails about how Black people are stupid, a belief he backed up by refusing to play Black QBs/hire Black coordinators for 15 years"

etween his tenures with the Raiders and Buccaneers, he has given snaps to only one Black quarterback: Shaun King, who was already on the Tampa Bay roster when Gruden was hired in 2002. None of Gruden’s past eight offensive or defensive coordinators have been Black. His only Black coordinator was Willie Shaw, who worked as the Raiders DC in 1998 and 1999. When Shaw was abruptly fired in 1999 after helping the Raiders go from 28th to 16th in points allowed in two seasons, Gruden and Allen tried to spin it as allowing Shaw to pursue head-coaching opportunities. Shaw never became a head coach; the Raiders promoted a white assistant, Chuck Bresnahan, to replace him.

Life expectancy in the US is 4.1 years shorter than in comparable countries. This certainly won’t improve with RFK in charge of public health. 🧪

Pritzker: "We don't want troops on the streets of American cities. That's un-American and frankly the president ought to know better. This one doesn't seem to. He hasn't read any books. He doesn't seem to understand the Constitution or the laws."

Did Goering, Goebbels and Himmler have such a good time during the Nazis’ 12-year reign that it was worth what came afterward, with their names enduring as symbols of degradation and evil? Asking for Marco Rubio.
