I’m excited to share some personal news. I’m very grateful to be able to continue to work with Ridley and to help steer the ship at Scott Free!

Trump is very clearly stating that if the press publishes the truth instead of his propaganda, he’ll put the weight of the federal government behind punishing them.

In case you’re confused, crushing dissent and punishing the press is what authoritarians do.

@Howard_Cole Insane that we have a guy who did this as the closer last postseason…3 saves, 0.84 ERA, and 6 strikeouts over 9 appearances (10.2 IP), while allowing 6 hits and 5 walks

[Betsey @Betsycashmoney]

Hmmm... this is certainly a shocking development... 🤔

So Trump's DOJ & Trump's SEC are investigating brand new Lakers owner Mark Walter & Guggenheim Partners, and now suddenly Walter is selling the Lakers to Trump's family member...? 🧐

The Roots & Ice Cube’s “Straight Outta Compton” from that Jimmy Fallon rehearsal is one of the greatest live hip-hop moments ever. Just a warmup and they still went nuclear. Kirk taking Eazy’s verse might be the highlight.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 98.5%.

New: Netflix is trying to get the rights to Hot Ones.

Just one hiccup: What to do about the advertisers?

@waltermasterson If they pass it, they win the midterms by suppressing votes; if they don’t, the midterms were “rigged” because they didn’t pass it.

West Wilson, childhood friend of #Fever guard Sophie Cunningham and cohost of her podcast:

“Right-wingers have convinced a massive portion of people in our country that (transgender athletes) are a threat to sports in America, when mathematically that’s not the case at all.”

@atrupar They want voting to be a privilege enjoyed by fewer, rather than a right to which all are entitled

[Liam Nissan™ @theliamnissan]

So according to Trump the Democrats forgot to rig the election in 2016 (letting him win) then somehow rigged the election in 2020 (while Trump was in power) and then completely forgot to rig it in 2024 (letting him win again). Do I got that right you silly MAGA dipshits?

Thrilled to finally drop the project I’ve been working on for the last few months - my four-part mini-series (and a lot more) on the people and places that embody structural economic ruptures driving the “affordability” crisis

[Derek Thompson @DKThomp]

again, big picture, donald trump won an election about affordability and then he

- passed tariffs (which raise consumer prices)
- expanded the deficit w a ginormous corporate tax cut (raises interest rates)
- waged a stupid war (raises gas prices)
- and now refuses to sign a bipartisan bill to reduce housing costs bc he's protesting senate republicans for failing to pass voting restrictions

... while making $2 billion from crypto rug pulls that transferred income from his supporters to his bank account

americans hate the president for very good reasons

[Pete Hegseth’s Liver 🍸 @PeteHegsLiver]

A star is born. This is Marshawn Camese. He is brilliant. He needs to run for office. Watch him eviscerate a Louisiana MAGA state representative. Looooove him!

If you want to understand American optimism…

We celebrate the date that we declared independence, not the date that we achieved it.

[Andrew Weinstein @Weinsteinlaw]

The real headline from the birthright‑citizenship case isn’t the outcome. It’s that four Supreme Court justices signaled they believe a president can effectively rewrite the Constitution through executive order.

ShyHippieGirl from TikTok put out a song called “Best Sleepover”

For years to come we’ll be telling the stories about the Summer we invited the World to have the Best Sleepover Ever! ❤️🇺🇸

Kraft is leaning into international soccer fans’ newfound obsession with ranch dressing, announcing plans to debut a limited-edition “Kraft TSA‑Compliant Ranch” kit aimed at travelers who apparently don’t want to leave the United States without the condiment. https://t.co/KUFLMjj5eh

Obama: "The Founders fell terribly short of the declaration's promise, leaving slavery in tact, allowing states to restrict the franchise to white men who owned property. But in drafting a constitution and bill or rights, they did have the foresight -- the genius -- to provide us with a framework that allows each generation to make our union more perfect."

Last time the Knicks won the championship the president resigned in disgrace shortly after.

[The Pink King @DayalSami]

Call me a hater but I think living in a world where both trillionaires and global poverty coexist is a sign humanity has failed as a species
