I’ll give a shit what George Conway says when he starts calling out his “ex” wife. How the fuck are we ok with this republican pretending to be an anti-trumper?
This would be a war crime even if there were an actual war and these people were actual combatants, which there isn't and they weren't.

It's unquestionably an unlawful homicide under any form of law you wish to apply: military or civilian, domestic or international, federal or state. ...

A trouncing. Let’s hope that the Democratic Governor acts like it and immediately backs the people that voted for her by ending the so-called “right to work” anti-worker bullshit.

Cancer drug Revlimid is one of the bestselling pharmaceutical products of all time, with total sales of over $100 billion.

It’s also extraordinarily expensive, costing nearly $1,000 for each pill, even though that pill costs just 25 cents to make.

The Price of Remission: This Cancer Drug Saves Lives — but Costs a Fortune. I Wanted to Know Why.
When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked ...

Send me your books, I’m putting together a gift guide to radicalize your family (or at least make them so they can’t deny what’s happening around them).
My book about sheriffs and right-wing violence is a good book for the dads (and nongendered dad-types) in your life, especially for those who loved watching Yellowstone, Fargo, or Eddington!

Hey everyone,

I hate asking again, but the movers we hired ripped my family off. Quoted us about $4k then extorted another almost $4k. I’m sick from overwork, will have to miss work to recover and we’re down a lot more than planned.

See quoted posted below for donation links.

Anything helps.

If any of the allegations are true, Nuzzi covering for RFK Jr. directly played a role in the gutting of America's public health infrastructure, the defenestrating of the CDC and the promotion of the lie that vaccines causing autism.
If the Nuzzi blast radius doesn't impact both the new editor of VF and the NYT profiler, then something wrong. Holy shit.
