can someone make a supercut of johnson saying he doesn't know anything
Raju: Last week, you were very critical of Biden, you said he didn’t even know who was pardoning. On 60 minutes, Trump admitted not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire guilty of money laundering. Is that also concerning?
Johnson: I don’t know anything about it.

dissatisfied by the New York Times coverage of Zohran Mamdani?
great news! I talked to the guy Thursday about his campaign’s success at bringing community together beyond this election, and contextualized how it’s potentially shifted youth engagement with politics by simply listening @teenvogue.com

Zohran Mamdani's Establishment-Fighting Campaign Built Community for Young People
“What Mamdani has done is not only inspire and mobilize young people, but he has exposed the establishment and some of their calcified views of participation and inclusion.”

I can already imagine the videos of lawlessness supposedly happening on the NYC streets, a mix of AI nonsense and clips that turn out to be a completely different place and year, and how these videos will get 10 million views while media critics furiously try to debunk them.

NYC is going to have the world's biggest media-manufactured crime panic in history the second Mamdani is elected. They aren't even going to wait until he is inaugurated. Whether or not you like the guy, you need to start preparing now for the fire hose of disinformation that is about to activate.

tangentially: can we be done with the fantasy that progress is inevitable and young people are proof of this?
One of the craziest stories I've seen in a long time. If you think Trump and his administration are extreme and depraved, just wait until you learn about the young guns who are positioning themselves to take over the reigns in the next few decades

In fairness to Pete Hegseth, the texts may have been sent four drinks into Happy Hour, so it's not like he meant to share highly classified information about war plans in a text chain.

don’t forget that having everyone drive is much more profitable than having everyone walk, bike, or take transit
conservatives aren’t actually afraid of subways and public transit, they have a very specific goal. they want big cities to seem scary so that less people to move to them / leave them so they’ll move conservative states instead, and so that they can privatize public transit
