I think seven republicans missed the vote. What is wrong with you?
lmao, guess the Times must really be hurting if these viewership numbers do it for them
Scoop: The New York Times recently tried to lure Astead Herndon back after he left for Vox just over a year ago
The outreach comes amid a string of high-profile podcast talent exits, including Kevin Roose, Casey Newton, Ross Douthat, and more

The little trick everyone in political media is playing here is that they’re trying to make this a mark on Democrats rather than saying very simply that every House Republican just voted to cut veterans benefits. That’s the whole story because it’s really all that matters.
You deserve a lifetime of CNN:Airport for complaining about this
Ok but the original poster is describing him acting aggressively, so you're either saying that she's lying, or just saying that her experience doesn't count
Which is it?
Replying to @venturetwins
I think I know who she's talking about, and from my experience, he's pretty chill. He might come across as grumpy or not particularly social, but I've never seen him act aggressively. What she's referring to as "his stuff" is usually his painting supplies. He spends much of his day painting and drinking coffee near the bus stop. It's a difficult situation, and I imagine neighbors have probably tried to help him before, too.

From what I understand Republicans who control the House for two more months have decided to cut veterans benefits on Veterans Day and somehow this is a reflection on Democrats and not a story about what Republicans are doing to Americans who sacrificed for us.
There's been this bizarre phenomenon the last few weeks, and especially since the election, where any time you tweet anything even remotely positive about Democrats (esp. leadership) you get swarmed by a shitload of 200-400 follower accounts repeating the dumbest shit imaginable
Like look at this idiot, hasn't tweeted since like 2023, AND YET here he is tweeting utter dogshit

Not dumb enough to be beat by a pedo twice. Mamdani is the most popular figure in the party and Schumer & Jeffries are at the bottom. Now you neolibs be good and pipe down. Daddy is trying to drive.

The fact that Nvidia went public in '99 is pretty much the only reason Jensen Huang doesn't have fully consolidated control of the board. If/when the same thing comes out about Mark Zuckerberg there is essentially no way to force him out like they're doing with Huang

fwiw this is Takano's account of what happened and it doesn't match what that person is claiming at all.
Justice Democrats make one (1) black friend challenge. Level: impossible
AIPAC Shakur aka @RepJeffries is going dicktater on day one it appears. Punishing any and all dissenters.
Be clear, though, he's not punishing dissenters when it comes to pushing legislative priorities that will improve our lives.
I ain't for it. #NotKeem

BLUE MISSISSIPPI!!
Unbelievable. What a world.
Scott Colom will defeat Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in a major upset to become the first Democrat that voters in deep-red Mississippi have elected to the chamber in more than four decades, CNN projects. cnn.it/4iEnxUo
If Rio Grande Valley/Texas Hispanics are back to voting based on immigration reform, Dems are in a much more secure place for the near/mid future
Rep.-elect Bobby Pulido (D-TX) (@bobbypulido425): "We used to see immigration as us and then them. It's not. We're all the same... Whoever wants to get our support in '28 has to prioritize immigration reform period."

Ben Rhodes (architect of Obama's biggest shame: his Syria policy) qt'ing one of the most prominent Assad genocide denialist propagandist in Rania Khalek.
Never has it been more apparent at who he is.
Oh you've come to a conclusion? Should we throw a party? Should we spend our parents' money to make a vanity magazine project just to tell everyone?
