People think "politics" is what you say, but politics is in fact how you wield power. In that sense, driving a car is one of the most profound ways to reveal what your actual politics are. How people drive reveals the sickness at the heart of our society: wanting power, but not responsibility.

McALESTER, Okla. (AP) — Oklahoma governor spares life of death row inmate Tremane Wood just before scheduled lethal injection.

I'm assuming this is not the first "Royals face decision on India" headline the Times has ever run, though perhaps the first in about 80 years www.nytimes.com/athletic/680...

The top story on NYT right now is "Trump re-opens government"

this is when i knew it was 1) all going to come out and 2) going to be so much worse than we thought

A lot of you are going to be tempted to say "I bet Karl Marx didn't predict capitalism falling into the hands of a cabal of pedophilic freaks" and I am here to tell you that he absolutely did

Rough day to be any sort of survivor of sexual violence. Solidarity to all of you, please be kind to yourselves

editor-in-chief of mother jones says nothing to see here folks, it’s a nothing burger

we need a department of kerning

taking applications for a quesadilla boy. you make me quesadillas and that’s it.

where’s that quesadilla boy when you need him. sigh

A pedophile game show host and gang of third-tier comedians with podcasts helped the Nazis retroactively win WW2. You're not going crazy. This is what actually happened.

New York Times killed Weinstein and Epstein stories but just asked Ms Rachel if she was funded by Hamas.

Great day to be a crisis PR firm

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

This is why Me Too got torpedoed and psyopped and turned into a joke, btw. Because too many powerful people are rapists and pedos and too many people were either invested in covering that up, or unable to handle that fact.

It’s been pretty clear for a while but brought to rack focus today, that successful people are encouraged to view rape as a perk of success and a great many successful people need no encouragement at all.

i just think there are plenty of ways to comment on it without resorting to pedophile jokes but make sure you get those likes, king

he’s going to bite it at the funniest possible time, the one thing the man has is comedic timing

This is insane even by the standards of the insanity we’ve all had to suffer through the last three thousand years

This isn’t even the stuff they’re trying to actually stop from getting out.

every few years it's revealed that the NYT was sitting on information about some horrific thing that public knowledge of would have changed the country's course and for some reason a ton of people still give them money. you can play those games on other sites

it's weird how many putative political commentators have no idea what "dog that didn't bark" means

cosell: there he is, the man everyone has been waiting to see, donald john trump. known in the 1980s new york tabloids as the donald. the man who ran an american football league and a casino out of business as part of a decades-long series of cons and frauds and failures. now, he’s got a sack lunch.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

If this is the guy running cover for your crimes then you’re done. Totally cooked. You’re chopped. Smothered. Scattered. Covered. Diced. Chunked. Capped. You’re an order of Waffle House hashbrowns on Nancy Mace’s plate about to see Valhalla.

whole lotta taking notes on a criminal fucking conspiracy

The Clinton campaign in 2016 definitely knew about all of this. They just didn't use it as a line of attack because Bill Clinton did all of the exact same shit with Epstein that Trump did. Also, the email dump today proves that the Obama administration knew about all this. I hate everything

I am extraordinarily loathe to endorse ideas which first present themselves as a conspiracy theories, even if they align perfectly with my priors. Maybe especially if they do. But, um, this one is starting to drift into the realm of the plausible even for a skeptic like me. bsky.app/profile/ksch...

One of the defining feelings in American life, for decades now, is elites doing plainly criminal shit and nothing at all happening as a result. It is deranging in a way that virtually nothing else is. Media fixates on perceived street lawlessness but shit like this matters much more in my opinion.

TV conspiracies: we’ve hacked their computers but they’ve perfectly cleaned up the evidence! Real conspiracies: To: conspirator From: famous person Attachment: evidence.png

WTF, the Kansas City Star is reporting that a mysterious group hired a fake 'campaign canvasser' who'd join the effort to collect signatures to halt the GOP's gerrymander... but who'd be a spy on the inside. www.kansascity.com/news/politic...

remembering that melinda french gates saw the reporting and stories 5 years ago and said nope im out

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

All his emails read like general anesthesia is starting to kick in

A fun exercise is thinking about how far down the presidential line of succession you'd have to go before you find someone who isn't involved in committing or covering up the most heinous crimes known to man. You have to impeach everyone until you get there

STOP DOING THIS TO BISEXUALS, FUCK

Losing these is what caused the collapse of the American empire.

Please stop dooming in my mentions and learn to enjoy when your opponent is having a bad day -management

Sending love to ask the struggling csa survivors today. This is all a lot. 🫶🏻

But what alarms me in all this is how the girls who were victimized by these men are largely forgotten. I want us to find ways of centering them in the discourse.

This account has been suspended for admitting to shooting the sheriff. Claiming that they did not also shoot the deputy does not mitigate that confession, as we take violence against certain communities VERY seriously

spending the rest of the afternoon bumping folsom prison i’ll tell you that much

me liking your post within 47s

The Epstein files are clearly more damning than we assumed, which is saying something.

What a cool sports show!

I'm sorry but this is the funniest thing that ever happened on this app. She replied with Johnny Cash lyrics to a Johnny Cash article

get a load of this horseshit lol
