We just aren’t being protected by these totally manageable things any more. It would be good to bring some sanity and experience back to the CDC and FDA.
As a progressive, I fully support Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White declaring themselves for the WNBA.
I only ask that they commit to the bit.
Medically transition. Take HRT, take blockers. Show us what your performance looks like when your body is at a deficit of both testosterone and estrogen.
Do this for 2-3 years. Then show up to open tryouts and show us all how well you perform after gaining 30% in fat mass and losing 5% muscle mass.
Go ahead Enes and Royce, chemically transition, or STFU.

.@ScottJenningsKY has been the greatest political commentator in the last 30 years. He's been nothing short of brilliant. Lmao
“Sen. Elizabeth Warren wrote in a social media post on Tuesday, “The Paramount–WBD merger isn’t about creating better entertainment. It’s about cutting costs & squeezing workers. Writers, actors, and crew will have fewer employers to work for, which means less bargaining power & lower wages. State AGs are stepping in to fight back.””

The 2-3 week Trump War has gone on for 156 days now.
Per league source, the WNBA is not taking declarations by former NBA players for the ‘27 WNBA Draft seriously. Source called them attempts to “sow division and chaos” by “bad-faith actors.” Nothing is imminent; league will follow its process and not let outside noise dictate it.

The @wnba for the win for refusing to allowing itself to become complicit in transphobia: “There are no immediate eligibility matters affecting the WNBA, and we strongly denounce the bad-faith efforts to use these topics to demean or marginalize others."
Yes!!!

All these guys express themselves with unabashed homoeroticism.
Cute moment between @LauraLoomer & @neeratanden 🥰👩❤️💋👩
Isn't this the same alleged super, pro family values, woman shaming Christian whose wife has 3 kids from 3 different dudes?
Same hypocrite, right?
Appreciate the promo.
Again you guys can find it here.
Almost to 50k already and it seems to make this lady mad. So I mean...might as well.
So many Lakers fans are awaking to the news that their favorite team is now owned by the Kushners. That’s rough.
Asked by me.
As you know, I’m no fan of Piker’s, but @ScottJenningsKY should have his ass sued on this one. He completely & purposely lied about & defamed Piker. Jennings is a fraud. He gets paid big $ by CNN to play a role. To lie. And btw, before I turned against Trump 8yrs ago, I was a syndicated talker for @SalemMediaGrp. They’re an openly “Christian” company. Christians don’t approve of lying, right? Piker should sue the heck out of Salem as well.

In 2026, profiting off a man murdered makes you a good Christian.
Don't ever let the @GOP tell you they want to rein in wasteful govt spending.
$900 Million in waste, fraud, and abuse. The GOP got us here, and they're keeping us here.
“I think Israel has lost its mind, like the U.S. after 9/11”
“Israel has cornered itself into a position in which there is a tangible threat to the survival of the state.”

Some on the left have criticized Sen. Bernie Sanders for focusing his criticism of Israel only on Benjamin Netanyahu. I asked him about that criticism and whether he agrees that Israeli opposition leaders are as genocidal as Bibi.
Listen to his response:

Ta-Nehisi Coates on Kamala Harris’ 2024 Presidential campaign:
“And yet… why are we here? Are we here to just act like white men have acted everytime before?”
“The struggle means to me not just that we would get the boot of our necks, but that we would destroy the boot, that this would not happen to other people.”

@neeratanden In the spirit of unity, can you, the head of CENTER FOR AMERICAN PROGRESS, apologize to Muslims and decent people for retweeting Laura Loomer and her hateful post?
Let us know if you have. If not, why not?
You're the president of CAP.

Well done @MalloryMcMorrow
