NEW: CA gubernatorial candidate Tom Steyer (D) releases an immigration platform that is radically left of Gov. Newsom. It includes:
- Abolish ICE
- Put ICE agents in jail & “treat them like the mob”.
- Bring those “kidnapped & detained by ICE back home.”
- Give CA AG power to imprison ICE agents & their leadership.
- Taxpayer funded legal representation & support for illegal aliens.
- Ignore a SCOTUS ruling that allows ICE to utilize to use race, language, job, and location to contribute to “reasonable suspicion” for immigration arrests, and instead, “California should take matters into our own hands and extend legal protections to its residents, despite the federal governments failure.”
“This is about our right as a state to protect our residents,” Steyer says.

@moseskagan @excel_ranger He hasn’t unfrozen the money. This is a recycled story from Biden era. Sad to see smart people go crazy

ok but hear me out, what if, and i know for some this may be too big of an if, but what if elon bought twitter, allowed people to post what they think without being banned, people started saying what they think without fear of censorship, and it turns out most people are fairly normal and not the demonic perverts the controlled networks made them look like

These are the Twitter/X accounts with the most engagement so far in 2026. I suppose I had some intuition for how bad it was, but jeez, this is what you get when the ecosystem is broken.

@yacineMTB Look up the things he predicted during the 2024 election. The FL predictions are outrageous.

>tweet data
>data is incorrect
>"its not my data! someone else got the data"
isn't this like the famous betting guy
Nate Silver@NateSilver538
It's not my data. The source is Cluvio, which is linked to in the article. I'd link to it in this tweet, but ironically, that would kill engagement. And I know that traffic is hard to count. Especially for a private company. But if you have more accurate data, then publish it.

I can't square the cognitive dissonance of those who insist we wildly overreacted to COVID... yet also obsess over “lab leak” + “gain-of-function.” If a lab accidentally released a virus no worse than a bad cold, then don’t we have much bigger fish to fry? 🤷🏽♂️

@lisabsingerpoet @ecp408 It really feels like it's in their genes isn't it? People from LA are just different. That's also the vibe I'm getting whenever I visit this place.

@learnsquick @KonstantinKisin @WestminsterWAG I am aware that more women vote left. But many women do not and many men also vote left.

More and more, I start to think Germaine Greer was right: women have no idea how much men hate them.

🚨🇮🇪 Irish police just released footage of a manknocking out a woman on a night out with friends in Cork. Completely unprovoked. The attack happened in November but the video is only now being made public. Why the delay?

FCC Chair Brendan Carr threatened to revoke news networks' licenses amid President Trump's criticism of coverage of the Iran war.

@glukianoff You fundamentally misunderstand what Carr is saying here. Broadcasters on these “public benefit” licenses get free distribution from the government. In exchange, they can’t knowingly lie. If they want to play partisan politics, they can do that on cable
English
Abolish the FCC and remember that this is why you do not want an FCC for AI (FAIC no!).
Power wants control of information, and you have to keep a wall of separation between power and truth.
Brendan Carr@BrendanCarrFCC
Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions - also known as the fake news - have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up. The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not. And frankly, changing course is in their own business interests since trust in legacy media has now fallen to an all time low of just 9% and are ratings disasters. The American people have subsidized broadcasters to the tune of billions of dollars by providing free access to the nation’s airwaves. It is very important to bring trust back into media, which has earned itself the label of fake news. When a political candidate is able to win a landslide election victory after in the face of hoaxes and distortions, there is something very wrong. It means the public has lost faith and confidence in the media. And we can’t allow that to happen. Time for change!

@DominicJPino As should public broadcast licenses. Insane that the US Govt provides free distribution for liberal propaganda

English
@mattparlmer Organizations granted the privilege to operate on a public interest broadcast licenses get free (no charge to them) distribution to hundreds of millions of Americans, but aren’t allowed to be in the tank for one political party. That type of hackery is reserved for cable

Honestly who in the US is okay with this?

@EODHappyCaptain Infuriating. Govt spending on lobster should be limited to SNAP recipients only

I once ate lobster tail in the middle of nowhere, Afghanistan after eating MREs for weeks straight.
I hope that’s ok with everyone.

@MatthewSpositi @OfcMarshmallow @unusual_whales What is annual spend on crab legs for SNAP recipients?
English
@OfcMarshmallow @unusual_whales Ah that makes sense bud. Still a ton of money to spend on crab, but at least it’s going to our soldiers.
English
The Pentagon purchased $2 million worth of Alaskan king crab in September, per new released documents seen by MSN.

A post regarding the two individuals arrested for throwing homemade bombs outside of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home failed to reflect the gravity of the incident thereby breaching the editorial standards we require for all our reporting. It has therefore been deleted.

Yesterday I was speaking with a young kid who went to Harvard
I asked him if he knew about the bomb attack by two young radical Islamists
He said
"you mean the one trying to kill Zohran Mamdani?"
Our media is doing great harm
Even this correction is misleading
