this is, all else being equal, easily the funniest thing the director of inside out could have said
Screenshot of a November 1, 2024 tweet from Stephen Miller (https://x.com/StephenM/status/1852364946195296620) reading as follows: "To anyone still gullible enough to fall for scummy media hoaxes: Trump said warmongering neocons love sending your kids to die for wars they would never fight themselves. Liz Cheney is Kamalaβs top advisor. Liz wants to invade the whole Middle East. Kamala = WWIII. Trump = Peace."
They told me if I voted for Kamala Harris, the United States would launch a war in the Middle Eastβand they were right!
Likely, but also noted.
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

Pair it with solar panels! If you're able.
Seems like the media should at least express some curiosity about this.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. Sheβs married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
Theyβve already sent her to Louisiana.
This isnβt just impeachable, this is criminal negligence and in a just society everyone involved (including the weapons officer who released the munitions) should face prison. www.reuters.com/world/middle...
Iβve never felt more seen.
The trend shift in adults per family household is so insane.
its even more insane that every important policymaker and economist thought we were slowly soaking up a glut of homes even into the 2010s.
And itβs even more insane that there are still supply-crisis skeptics today.
NEW: Mamdani's City Hall is discussing charging fees for currently free on-street parking β a policy change that would not only create a new revenue stream but also seize a once-in-a-generation opportunity to improve the streetscape. buff.ly/9C0Iq34
βAmong those who had been arrested for a second or third drunk driving offense, 24/7 participants were almost 50% less likely to be rearrested or have their probation revoked in the following year compared to those who were not in the program.β
Agreed. Here's a piece I wrote about this problem 16 years ago. We should use shades of purple.

Reminds me of this piece I wrote, oh, 16 years ago.

Um Obamacare provided health insurance to millions, the EPA under Dems saved hundreds of thousands of lives, Dems funded international aid to save millions of lives, tax rates were hugely different (to benefit the working class), and so on. Please.
53 U.S. Senators just voted to do nothing to stop an executive branch doing this.
WALZ: What a 'stop payment' meant by what the administration did last week is 400,000 children without healthcare
COMER: We believe that's your fault
WALZ: Our Medicaid error rate is lower than your state
"AVs almost by definition lower the friction and costs associated with driving ... And we already know, from the last century-plus of experience in the US, what happens when we make driving easier: We will get more of it. And more concrete and asphalt infrastructure to accommodate it."
A new report by @thedotcity.bsky.social quantifies the economic toll of downtown freeways, and the economic potential of tearing them down.
The 66K acres that downtown freeways occupy could yield more than half a trillion dollars of development and over $5b annually in property taxes.
USA: "Best I can do is 84 month car loans."
Uh, all the precincts are reporting in the North Carolina #SD26 Republican primary and State Senate President Phil Berger is losing by TWO VOTES!
Sam Page- 50.00% (13,077)
Phil Berger (Inc)- 50.00% (13,075)

Some context: under the Countywide Polling Place Program, you could vote at any precinct in your county. Recently, the Republican Party in certain counties decided to opt out, meaning you have to vote at a specific precinct. Crucially, Rs opting out meant Ds were forced to opt out too.
Dubai police are threatening jail time for "any content that contradicts official announcements."
Over at the newsletter I wrote about the Paramount/Warner deal, how it's best viewed as a well-funded attack on informed consensus, and how we still have collective agency to determine whether or not it actually succeeds.
One of my favourite sides of politics/media.
Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack. "The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."
complete insanity
I wrote about the one actually great thing that happened this week
