I think we have really lost sight of the roots of socialist thought when people find it baffling that (some) socialists would be excited about the prospect of big technological advances that unsettle the established modes of production and want to focus on who owns the tech.

Hey @JaxsonDart and @Giants, you just lost a fan.
Actually, it's probably more like hundreds of thousands or millions of fans after they see this pathetic and disgusting endorsement of a convicted felon and adjudicated sexual predator who is destroying America.
And @camskattebo5, if you feel the same way, this applies to you too. 😠
Do better.

@mattyglesias @averyfjames Don't forget the same old authoritarianism.
English

@averyfjames China seems like the Bukharin / New Economic Policy model of private markets for goods and services with the “commanding heights” of banking, utilities, and transportation in state hands.
English

As a lifelong, avid @Giants fan, I am beyond disappointed & flat out angry @JaxsonDart has chosen to align himself with an unhinged, racist, criminal, lunatic destroying our democracy.
How is this going to go over with his teammates?
This is a terrible look for the org.

Jaxson Dart: I'm grateful, I'm honored, I'm pleasured to introduce the 45th and 47th president of the United States of America, President Donald J. Trump.

@BernieSanders We tried giving money away during COVID. It caused massive inflation.

Mr. Bezos: Let's have that debate.
Under my 5% billionaires wealth tax, we'd:
-Give $12K to a working family of 4
-Expand Medicare for dental, vision, hearing
-Guarantee universal childcare
-Raise starting teacher pay to $60K
And you'd still be worth $269 billion after taxes.

Jeff Bezos on CNBC: "If people want me to pay more billions, then let's have that debate, but don't pretend that that's gonna solve the problem. You could double the taxes I pay, and it's not gonna help that teacher in Queens.... Airbnb isn't causing high rents. What's really causing high rent is government intervention."

Making gasoline out of corn:
— Raises gasoline prices
— Raises the global price of food
— Ambiguous impact on CO2 emissions
— Definitely leads to more use of pesticides and other toxins

@Acyn It's Top Secret, you Idiot. You want to Post the Plans on the Web? Maybe get a Chinese Engineer to Sign Off For Permits?

"Rashee Rice did not know that he was going to be going to jail for thirty days..
If he did there's no way that he would have had the knee surgery that he did last week..
He's currently in a jail cell" ~ @AdamSchefter

@mattyglesias @jbarro I played D1 football in college. I didn't play until I was in 7th grade. A high school classmate of mine, the same track, played in the NFL for a year. Puberty does something to muscle memory. There is nothing these kids learn pre seventh grade that makes a difference.

@jbarro The private teams have non-trivially crowded out school-based teams at early ages and the concern is you won’t be able to make a high school team unless you’ve been playing competitively younger.
English

I have never heard any parent speak positively about this travel-team private-league sports stuff. So why do they have their kids participate in it? (The answer is rarely "my kid is headed for D1") Don't schools have teams anymore? theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/05/…

Chelsea Handler goes OFF on Tony Hinchcliffe & Shane Gillis for making “racist” jokes at the Kevin Hart Roast and claims White people should NOT be joking about Black people in that kind of way since its equivalent to joking about r-pe 😳
“I knew enough about Tony & Shane… They’re racists, they’re bigots, they’re sexist… I don’t find those jokes funny. L-nching Black people is not a joke. It’s worse than r-pe… Them making fun of Sherryl Underwood’s dead husband who comitted s—cide is gross… I wasn’t fine with that. There was so much disgustingness, I knew it was gonna be a gross vibe.”

@JakeSherman Am I the only person who thinks it's a little gay for a man to be this obsessed over a ballroom?
English

NEWS ON THE BALLROOM -- The $1B for USSS is one of the most important things Republicans are dealing with right now.
It is the single provision that is standing in the way of ICE/CBP funding. Trump wants this on his desk by June 1. But that's all been complicated by the $1B for security, including Trump's ballroom.
Forget the House floor right now. it's irrelevant. all the action will begin when the Senate moves the reconciliation bill.
As @LauraEWeiss16 scooped last night, Senate is not only changing the $1B language, but they are also considering lowering the number from $1B.
Senate is engaged in a lot of Trump management right now. They know Trump wants the money but they also know that, in its current form, they cant pass it. The parliamentarian is a side show, for the most part. Because if the language ends up on the floor, it could easily come out during vote-a-rama.
And here's the real kicker: The House is even trickier. Absences and opposition will kill this provision in the House. Johnson has been warned by rank and file. This won't fly.

@kenyanmcduffie This is a parenting program, not a rec center problem.
English

Accountability and opportunity must go hand in hand. Janeese Lewis George voted against giving DC a curfew tool to respond to youth gatherings that have, at times, erupted into violence. And when the Council had the opportunity to extend rec center hours, she shut it down, choosing politics over our youth.
As Mayor, I won’t tolerate this kind of disorder, and I’ll make sure our young people have safe, constructive places to go.
