Mayor Mamdani and a child play with Legos while looking very serious and concentrated. The child is impossibly adorable and wearing tiny blue glasses.
No interruptions, please. We’re building universal child care.
New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind Rohingya refugee who died in the cold streets of Buffalo days after Border Patrol dumped him without coordinating with his family or lawyers.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
But in a twist, one suspected drug trafficker became an informant and told federal agents that Epstein had been involved in the funding and distribution of ecstasy, ketamine and methamphetamines, the people familiar with the matter said. The informant also said that Epstein ran a prostitution ring.
“Trans children are perfect.”
They think, or at least pretend to think, that this doesn’t sound like obvious cope to everyone in the world
It’s an entire White House comms shop built on the premise of “my hot girlfriend lives in Canada” being believed by normal people

“Scientist still lack a definition of consciousness itself“ yes exactly. And theologians cannot agree on a definition of “soul.” That does not mean an AI possesses undefinable qualities.
The fact that “they don’t know” if AI is conscious or not says more about human gullibility than AI capability.
Words, what do they mean
This amount is double what anon MoC were saying 2 days ago. And Trump is escalating.
No-one is happy about the jobs report.
".. Shutting in an oil well risks long-term damage to reservoir pressure and incurs high restart costs, usually making it a measure of last resort. Restarting production can take days or even weeks .."

"As last month's jobs report was just released moments ago, with the economy adding 92,000 jobs in February"
"Actually, we lost 92,000 jobs"
"OK, so that was wrong in the script"
Enjoy the thread. My favorite part is when the author holds up Mike Johnson and Josh Hawley as examples of evangelicals making their presence felt in politics and says we need more like them
Well, imagine that …
McCarthy's assistant was Roy Cohn. In the 70s, Cohn mentored son of NY real estate developer - developer was successfully sued for discriminatory renting practices. Developer's son mentored by Cohn is currently president.
It’s lunacy, madman stuff. We’re just going around killing whoever we feel like, with zero regard for the law OR the consequences! If any other country were doing it our political class would say, probably rightfully, that there was an urgent necessity for their leaders to eat a cruise missile.
Trump has fully shattered the world we all grew up in. It’s a dramatic break from how things worked before, even compared to the Iraq War and other misadventures - the United States abruptly tumbling over a cliff and becoming literally more reckless and domineering than Putin’s Russia.
A DOJ source says FBI agents found the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child to be credible:
"They would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying."
A filmmaker followed me during my last year in Congress while I served on the Jan 6 Committee.
The result was the documentary “The Last Republican.”

there's a thing I like to call "load-bearing assumptions", that you don't notice until they're suddenly gone (e.g the air you breath has oxygen in it).
the post-ww2 order is a load-bearing assumption for basically the entirety of american life. trump took a sledgehammer to it in the last 90 days.
Not regime change- societal collapse
I'm unsure how people really think people were downplaying a virus that can kill you, make you go blind, wipe out your immune system for years, and oh yeah come back and kill you a decade after you thought you'd shaken it.
the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year
the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter

Hassett downplays a terrible February jobs report: "It's about what we expect to be seeing because immigration has gone down by so much that the breakeven employment is probably in the 30,000 or 40,000 jobs a month range. The economy is really strong."
