Just remember the people that backed Sheng Thao even through the recall are still around and very active. And they’re the same reason local media is too afraid to speak out against or report on “their” backed politicians. They don’t carry about this City, the results are obvious.

Let’s never forget that somehow we, common folk, knew more about Sheng Thao than these “journalists” did.

KQED and Oaklandside back at it again with some major defense of Sheng Thao. They seem to play up her “wins” and omit many reasons why people actually didn’t like her. I need only listen to the first five minutes to get it. Done with you ⁦@KQED⁩

California's failure to build high-speed rail is maybe the most egregious example of America's inability to deliver modern infrastructure. Perhaps it could learn from another Western country with one of the world's largest and cheapest high-speed train networks: Spain. I explained:

How did we go from “This could be the best season we’ve had in years!” to “This is the biggest train wreck we’ve ever seen!” so quickly?

This is a perfect example of how some people think they have some brilliant take (disguising an ulterior motive) while trying to undermine credible journalism. Carmelo probably just resents owners and media (like most athletes do).

Carmelo Anthony wants Pablo Torre to reveal the NBA owners who want him to look into LeBron’s helicopter use. Earlier this week, Torre shared that owners have reached out to him about James using a Fanatics helicopter to fly back and forth between Philadelphia and New York while playing for the 76ers, and he is "looking into" the partnership.

Talarico: I opened up social media and learned that I apparently had dropped out of the race, had flown to a mental hospital in Ohio, that I had died. This is crazy. Conspiracy theories don't put food on the table. They don't put gas in the tank. They don't actually improve our communities or improve our country. And so I'm going to stay focused on the very real problems that are facing Texans.

Two MAGA influencers claimed to have proof that James Talarico had a mental breakdown. Elon Musk pushed it. Within hours, the story fell apart. @willsommer and @EggerDC got the full recording that the viral clip was cut from. lnk.thebulwark.com/4B0SkDr

The holes in this one were evident pretty quickly. Now the big question is will there be lawsuits in response?

Loved seeing Turnstile on SNL. I hope it spawns a dozen new bands. Its never been easier to fall down a rabbit hole. Discover hardcore. Find the weird shit that changes your life. Start a band. Make some noise.
