Just imagine how different things would be if we all had access to the same healthcare system that's keeping Mitch McConnell alive

Getting everyone interested in anti-trust legislation is, it turns out, in everyone's interest.

Sen. Dave McCormick says he thinks "most communities across Pennsylvania are gonna embrace" data centers eventually, then pivots to blaming China for the fact they're so unpopular in the US right now

Incidentally, North Lake was formerly a noncitizen-only federal prison (a specific subset of BOP prisons that are all privately run) where I found sudden transfers during the height of COVID led to mass spread. I’m unsurprised things are still terrible there as an immigration detention center

"Vance's attack on Talarico shows the deficiencies in his character—his willingness to resort to casual homophobia, his willingness to spread a false smear, his disregard for decency. But we’ve seen most of those before. What it really revealed is this: Vance, and his party, are getting desperate."

Just days ago, Trump eased sanctions on Russian diesel and claimed Russia agreed to stop attacking energy infrastructure. After Russia’s massive attacks on Ukraine’s energy facilities last night, it’s clear they took Trump’s money and ran. What a weak, weak President.

Breaking: James Talarico raised $64 million in the third quarter, his campaign announced — the largest fundraising haul on record for a U.S. Senate candidate in any state for this period.

Ukraine's president earlier said Kyiv was 'done' with energy ceasefire and that strikes on Russian oil refineries would resume.

Re the Sally Rooney news, I was looking up data on arrests under terrorism legislation the other day, and hadn't quite realised how utterly bonkers the effect of the Palestine Action prohibition had been. That big purple spike is basically all PA-related arrests.

Traitor Trump proudly does a deal with Putin that will kill Ukrainians—and his sycophantic FBI director heads to Russia. You do the math.

Exactly this. The Saudi armed forces are hoplessly mediocre. All kit and no clue.

On the question whether frozen Russian assets in Europe should be transferred to the US, German Chancellor Merz has made very clear: “Those are frozen assets in Europe and they will remain frozen. That is our business and only we will decide.”

Aaron Swartz, coding prodigy and hacktivist who helped develop RSS and was a co-founder of Reddit, died by suicide after facing $1 million in fines and 35 years in prison for felony charges, just for downloading pdfs of research papers with the intention of making them accessible to the public.

Being GenX/Millennial is such a trip. In our lifetimes, we saw people our age getting wild criminal penalties for pirating music and now have to sit and watch as companies gobble up our work with impunity.
