I have heard even my most conservative friends rave about the high quality work done by immigrants on forest crews. No one in the arid West cares about the workers' legal status when your neighborhood is in the path of fire. This is a dumb strategy.

Online conservatives are railing that liberals are cheering Kirk's death, but every single liberal commentator I've seen has condemned the use of violence. I have not seen a single instance of such cheering (although I'm sure there are some). 🤷‍♂️

Has literally any single human being inside the Democratic Party elite ever faced any negative career, status, financial, or job consequences for losing multiple elections to Trump and MAGA? I’m genuinely asking here.

Average person: DOGE shut down a bunch of shit, so why shouldn't Schumer take a stand and shut down the government? Proponents of "government must remain open" forget what happened six months ago!

Gavin should be thankful we at The Babylon Bee sued the state of California and got the law he signed to stop people from parodying politicians using A.I. overturned

Democrats still don't understand populism. The Minnesota PUC (all Dems) voted 5-0 to approve the BlackRock purchase of Minnesota Power.

Republicans now hold a 6-point advantage in polls on the question of which party voters most trust to fight corruption. Take a moment to think about how badly Democratic leaders have screwed things up to allow that to happen. thebulwark.com/p/anti-corrupt…

As the tech companies' cloying prompts to "use A.I. now!" with each product become ever more persistent, I think we should coin the phrase "rage declining" to describe vigorously closing all those stupid popups the instant they appear.

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

Electricity is power: The Rev. Jesse Jackson protested at the Venezuelan embassy in Washington, D.C. in 2019. As the situation escalated, Pepco shut off power to the embassy, presumably at the behest of the U.S. So much for "universal service"! nytimes.com/2019/05/09/us/…

SRP isn't a "green" utility -- its member-voters are agricultural property owners, i.e. the GOP base. Must be another reason why Turning Points is dropping coin on this electoral race. Ryan Grim azcapitoltimes.com/news/2025/08/2…

The Ratepayer Protection Pledge signed by Meta, Google, and Amazon promises their data centers will pay for transmission infrastructure, including network upgrades. But *none* of these companies are actually paying these costs. And I have the receipts.🧵
