I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Everybody's calling Assigned Media "the best little news site on the internet," but how will this scrappy team of journalists survive a new year of untold horrors?

With YOUR HELP, of course! That's right, get hype everyone for the 2026 start-of-year fundraising drive!

Of course I am thinking of all those struggling for Black lives, but also those struggling for trans people, especially Black and brown trans folks, as well as all the immigrants documented and otherwise

Fuck borders, fuck gender enforcement, abolish ICE, abolish carceral values and systems
MLK was only 39 when he was killed. Growing up, I thought that was old. But I’m 43 now and I’m stunned by the burden he shouldered at such a young age. I’m also a lot more aware of how hard it is, at any age, to carry the hopes and dreams of an oppressed people on your shoulders, as so many do.

I think Newsom briefly got an inordinate amount of credit for having some very clever folks running his social media accounts. His unassisted moral and political instincts remain terrible.
Ben Shapiro bullied him. Ben Shapiro.
we are still years out from the Democratic primary, and I think it is genuinely deranged that there’s people out there who believe there’s no other choice and thus we must rally around the flag of, all people, Gavin Fucking Newsom to save the republic

The Sacramento Kings have won three-straight games for the first time this season, and they did it by beating the...

Houston Rockets (6th in West)
Los Angeles Lakers (5th in West)
New York Knicks (2nd in East)

They won each game by 10+ points.

i'm not saying this as anyone who knows anything about health; i'm saying it as someone who is an alleged expert in interest group politics: the American beef industry is all over MAHA, wellness, and podcast spaces.

remember "bacon mania?" totally a marketing strategy by the pork industry.
New federal dietary guidelines give federal approval to beef tallow, a fat that both cardiologists and the U.S. government told Americans to avoid for nearly half a century.
Beef Tallow Rises to the Top of the U.S. Food Pyramid
The new dietary guidelines give federal approval to a fat that has slowly caught on with consumers, even as doctors have warned against it.

Those of you who still insist on drawing a distinction between ICE and police should be aware that the police are not drawing that distinction.
Thank you for telling us you neither serve nor protect. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud. That was state murder in broad daylight, captured from multiple angles by multiple witnesses, and the people of Minneapolis have eyes.

You support murder.
