Does anyone remember who was president when Epstein died in prison?

What do you call it when you give an elderly pedophile unconstrained authority over the federal government? Making America Great Again!

maybe I'm focusing on the wrong thing here but this is the wildest shit I've ever heard a white South African say and I study racism for a living

What if the United States had a Congress or a Constitution?

The DOJ released evidence, which the FBI deemed credible, that the President of the United States sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl AND she was afraid to talk about it because Trump would kill her—and it’s somehow not the biggest scandal in American history?

X is a fascist propaganda website.

One of my favorite lessons from Jewish tradition is the idea that every life is a universe. I can't imagine a state which claims to operate on behalf of the Jewish people thinking it's legitimate to kill dozens of innocent people just to find the remains of others. A shanda beyond comprehension.

that the Trump administration is trying to shut down a leading AI company because it’s unwilling to develop autonomous murder systems is terrifying, and should be of grave concern to everyone in the world

Walk into a sandwich shop. It’s regulated for health and safety. But AI, which will transform the world economically and socially, is completely unregulated. That’s insane. We need to make certain that AI works for ALL humanity, not just the billionaires who own it.

It looks like the war on Iran is going about as poorly as the regime’s previous wars against Chicago, Minnesota and Los Angeles.

It sucks the president is a pedophile who is trying to destroy the constitution, but it’s honestly funny his supporters think that’ll Make America Great Again.

Sometimes the contradictions do be contradicting.

[youth pastor voice]: the kids are talking about looksmaxxing, but we need to be talking about democracymaxxing

This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things I’ve ever seen from the United States government.

We should abolish the United States Senate. It serves no purpose.

These fucking jokers want to use AI for mass surveillance of Americans and to build killer robots. The least serious people of all time.

The Trump regime has abandoned the constitution: - declared war without Congressional authorization - ignoring multiple court orders - impounding Congressional authorized funds - ignoring the freedom of speech and assembly It’s a lawless regime that has no legitimacy.

Here's what I believe: no more business as usual in the Senate. We shouldn't be voting to proceed to normal legislation until Republicans schedule a debate and a vote and on a declaration of war against Iran. Let's see if Trump has the votes to authorize war. I bet he doesn't.

We simply cannot allow these fucking morons to act like they're the ones who truly love this country. They don't take matters of life and deaths seriously. They aren't patriots--they're the most selfish people on the planet.

I have absolutely no idea what Trump is trying to accomplish in Iran, or how he plans to accomplish it, and the fun thing is that neither does he! That's why the constitution does not give the President the authority to launch wars without Congressional approval.

If you're voting in Texas today, I urge you to vote for @jamestalarico.bsky.social in the Senate primary. He would make an incredible Senator. Jasmine Crockett is a great spokesperson, but she's in the pocket of the crypto industry. We don't need more Senators who are bought by crypto bros.

I've been really enjoying this podcast series from Jad Abumrad about the life and music of Fela Kuti. It's got everything: the birth of Afrobeat, his incredible revolutionary mother, post-colonial history of Nigeria, and the story of the movement he started. It's so fucking good.

In a democracy, the war on Iran would not be possible.

the war is unpopular but it's also illegal but it also doesn't serve any purpose but it also undermines diplomacy but it also is set to produce the opposite outcome as intended but it also already has hundreds dead and threatens more but it also will not make anything better for anyone but it also

Donald Trump is gaslighting us and distracting us from his many failures. This is how authoritarians use war. Congress must vote immediately to stop this illegal war with Iran.

Just this week: - Administration is caught hiding evidence Trump sexually assaulted a 13 year old - Pentagon demands AI companies allow it to use AI for mass surveillance and killer robots - Trump launches unconstitutional war against Iran - Pro-Trump oligarch buys CNN 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Since winning the FIFA Peace Prize, Trump has kidnapped the President of Venezuela, threatened war against Denmark, and launched a war against Iran.

It would be cool to have a legislature that acted to defend its own constitutional prerogatives and, maybe as a treat, the interests of the people it represents too.

During the 2024 election cycle, nobody contributed more to Rep. Landsman’s campaign than AIPAC ($385,808). 👇

Our constitution is clear: the decision to take our nation to war rests with Congress. Trump’s reckless & dangerous decision to initiate military action without congressional authorization is clearly unconstitutional. Congress must reconvene —immediately — for a vote on the War Powers Resolution.

My statement on President Trump’s combat operations in Iran⬇️

Democrats should say that Trump’s attacks on Iran are unconstitutional. The American people do not want a war in Iran. The Congress did not authorize a war in Iran. It is an entirely illegitimate action that has no legal or constitutional basis. It is the act of a lawless regime.

The Trump regime illegally bombed a school in Iran and the opposition leader demands…an immediate briefing.

“I believe the lawless fascists who are killing American citizens in broad daylight can bring peace to the Middle East by bombing children’s schools without congressional approval.” That’s what you sound like.

If you’re a Democratic member of Congress who trusts the Trump regime to take military action without Congressional authorization, you should immediately resign. You’ve already abdicated your responsibility to uphold the constitution—please just vacate your seat. You are worse than useless.

BREAKING — 51 Iranian children are dead after a strike hits Minab girls elementary school in Iran.

I promise you that the government that murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good does not give a flying fuck about the protests in Iran.

If you’re a Democrat in Congress who is considering supporting Trump’s illegal war in Iran, please consider self-immolation instead.

what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"

I’m sorry, but we can’t allow this dying pedophile to launch an unconstitutional war.

Trump had no choice but to act. The Iranians were just weeks away from obtaining the missing Epstein files.

If Trump can declare war without congressional authorization, then Congress has effectively disbanded itself.

This is illegal act of war committed by a president who is actively trying to cover up evidence he sexually assaulted a 13 year old girl. This should not be treated as legitimate in any way.

The pedophile in charge of the federal government is trying to use AI to build autonomous weapons systems and mass surveillance. Have a nice night!

It’s so weird how billionaires keep funding projects that explain how working people want Democrats to do things which won’t take any wealth or power from billionaires!

“This man is dying. Like and subscribe!”

one of the funniest things to keep coming out of the anthropic reporting is that the pentagon was trying to convince amodei by proposing elaborate hypothetical scenarios. buddy do you think an EFFECTIVE ALTRUIST has never considered a bizarrely specific and elaborate hypothetical scenario??
