If nothing else, expanding the courts - leading to the majority party doing the same thing every election cycle - would at least make a mockery of the court, which they roundly deserve.

Many people in the comments seem to think he is offering a genuine apology. "I'm sorry your offended" is the goated non-apology.

Mamdani is an excellent mayor, imo. But the decision to defer the pension payments that will cost NYC $5B over the next few years seems shortsighted to me. We did similar things in Milwaukee decades ago and only recently got out from under it. Curious how others think he should fund his policies.

I think the president thinks we all think $5000 is a lot of money (and I'm not saying it isn't) because it's a number he keeps coming back to every time he wants to lie to us about how much money he's going to give everyone.

"Scientists" believe life began in underwater hydrothermal vents 4 billion years ago. I believe it began at the Denny's off the interstate in Toledo Ohio in 1956. I don't make fun of their theory and yet they constantly ridicule mine. And that's what's wrong with our so-called elites

I'm very curious to see the post analysis around demographics to see where the electorate broke. Poll wise, the DSA was not doing great with black voters and until they crack that nut it will be an uphill climb for them.

A reminder, as polls open in Wisconsin: Wisconsin has same-day voter registration. So, if you haven’t registered or need to re-register, you can do so at your polling place (with ID and proof of residence) TODAY. Every state should do this. It’s great that Wisconsin does this. Go vote.

I was rooting for the USMNT even with his interference. So I'm disappointed, but ultimately unsurprised by the loss. I don't think they would have won either way, but the fact that he intervened gives even the loss a certain stench.

the egg price thing under biden was all fake lol

From mid-2022 to early 2025, the egg producers communicated with each other to coordinate bidding activity on a widely used pricing service, according to a complaint filed in a federal court in Iowa.
The complaint details instances of executives for the companies calling and texting each other in an effort to push prices higher.
Under the settlement, the state DOJ says the three companies must end their price coordination, adopt compliance measures and cooperate with

I’m not going to hail Barrett and Roberts for allowing us to count our votes. It’s a huge win for democracy, but it shouldn’t have even been a question. That we were one vote away from disenfranchising votes is all the more reason to expand the court in 2029.

No hate to Kristen Welker, I honestly thought she did a great job, but the way she kept saying "I/you flew all the way to Wisconsin for this" just made it sound like it was a huge slog to have to go to Wisconsin. I doubt she meant it that way, but it really is a great place to be imo.

One reason why oil prices aren't going to go down soon: you aren't going to be paying for just the oil that was sitting in Hormuz the whole time, you're also paying the equivalent of a going-on-3-month storage fee.That oil has been sitting there not making money and they want to recover those costs.

🧵 Some thoughts on the DNC autopsy report: 1. Given that the person who wrote it has refused to turn over the source materials, a simpler strategy for Ken Martin would have been to release them immediately, state that it is an unfinished, sloppy product, and then sue Paul Rivera instead of whatever
