First band in a long time that made me to go through all four stages of Vince McMahon face

Labour's swing toward racism is perhaps the biggest unforced error in British political history; burnt their base to ashes and won them not a single vote on the right.

The Nineties were so bleak. America had vanquished all enemies so there was nowhere for all that hate to go except onto the people who always got the worst of it

In the last week alone, Briahna Grey, Ryan Grim, Cenk Uyghur, David Klion, Ana Kasparian, and others on the Left have promoted anti-Semitic content. these are not really fringe people, and if we don't police the boundaries of liberalism and progressivism, we risk becoming like the right.

Getting Tucci instead of Trump is a hell of a trade

Analysis | If the right-wing Ellisons are allowed to purchase CNN, they could order Jake Tapper to obsessively focus on Biden's age, or demand that Van Jones to say Trump truly became president today, or allow Scott Jennings to brazenly tell baldfaced lies on a nightly basis.

What I like most about the David Ellison character is that they draw him to look like actually the stupidest guy you’ve ever met. It’s heavy handed but it works I think.

Now for this important announcement:

Lerry Ellison and his weird son Blunther (??) Ellison look like they go on weekend trips to kill horses and steal their teeth

President AOC is going to have to go on a trust-busting spree

Viktor Orban is now 20 points behind in the polls - and so he has ordered the military to guard “key energy facilities” against a possible Ukrainian “attack.” Hungarians fear he plans a fake national security emergency or false-flag incident before the April 12 election apnews.com/article/hung...

If you can't tell that five minutes after he's sworn in this guy is going to be standing next to Josh Hawley talking about how president trump is right on immigration and heroically fighting to save America from the Mud Races, I don't know what to say other than "You are not very perceptive."

Dishonesty is at the center of the anti-trans hate campaign. Though much bigotry is blatant, an astonishing amount is laundered by the nyt, which routinely manipulates and falsifies information to foist on unsuspecting readers Take its small but important role in legitimizing this extremist group🧵

This still isn't going to be enough for people who don't know how journalism works and assume that anonymous means the writer made it up. Which is weird, because in everyday life people understand when you say "I can't tell you who told me"

characteristically good work from Serwer. again saying: we have an elite impunity problem and a lot of the people and institutions that nominally oppose Trump will burn down their own before admitting that this helped produce him

One thing I don't understand about casting this guy as the white working class whisperer is that I thought identity politics are supposed to be bad

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

Weird how the right wing believes black men when they say a woman is lying about them. Really drives that hierarchical thinking home

Well, if Trump is suing for $10 billion because of leaked info from the IRS, that means the government is on the hook for about $427 trillion here — more than its total budget over U.S. history. Oh well!

"Bluesky doesn't have the juice." "Real media access is still only on Twitter." "No one important uses or will ever use this site." Skill issue. If you post good, the right people will figure out how to get in touch with you.

I think folks need to calm down about Newsome because the moment that mf truly hits national attention as a candidate, voters are gonna be like who is this sleazeball that says I shouldn’t retire until I’m 75

Quite rare to see a chart that says quite so overtly that no one involved has the slightest clue what’s happening here

“Mr Beast related trades” at this point bring back Enron for fucks sake, at least those guys wore suits

Before "Roots" was on TV, folks tended to think of slavery merely as a particularly nasty form of unfair labor practice. It took decades of work to spotlight the psychopathic violence it really entailed and the extent that racism had corroded the nation's soul. Let's not wait another generation

The level of rage I have towards the New York Times that enabled this while blaming us for it is indescribable.

My trans kid will live to see all these bastards in their graves.

Of all the atrocities Trump has heaped upon us, his love for Orban has always been his least defensible and the clearest window into his soul. There is simply nothing admirable about Orban's Hungary. It's not a success story in any measure

Abolish the legal gender marker entirely. No government can be trusted to have a database of which people have changed theirs, no government has any business tracking what your gender is "supposed" to be in the first place.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but the tools to correct literally all of this nonsense are sitting in the toolbox just the distance of a couple of spines to uphold a sworn oath away.

Even if this fall ends up with just modest Democratic gains instead of a wave, it will still be a great idea to go around saying things like “Conservatism has been totally rebuked”

it’s legitimately a huge fucking scandal that the FBI director has fucked up at least two major investigations because he uses the FBI’s planes as private planes and has actively failed to even bother with one of the highest profile abductions since the lindburgh baby

1. US Senator Markwayne Mullin, who serves on the Armed Services Committee, believes that Ayatollah Khamenei, the current Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, has been the Supreme Leader since 1979.

If 4,000 coal miners had to move we literally would never hear the end of it

In case you don't want to take the time to watch, the main point is that Trump, contra all of American Presidential history, doesn't even pay lip service to the idea of being President for the whole country. Kind of strange that I've never seen the usual guardians of norms point this out!

all I can add is Epstein apparently knew something about law enforcement and who they really serve

it is so hard for me to relate to people who want to look at videos of people talking at them and yet

everyone understands that the only reason you can post "Trump is a pedo" on any social media platform is because Section 230 exists, right?

This stunt where ICE releases people far from home with no proper clothing and no way home should be treated as attempted homicide. In this case, actual homicide. These cases are not accidental or based on misunderstandings. They are deliberate attempts to inflict bodily harm.

y’all don’t need me to tell you this but this is plainly unconstitutional under any remotely rational reading of the constitution

I don't think anyone pretending there isn't an effort underway by Republicans to eradicate trans people from public life can be taken seriously at this point.

Yeah, I’m into conspiracy.

Pour one out for the Cold War Soviets, who pushed their minds and bodies to the brink in an effort to outdo the West, only for the West to trip over its dick and into an early grave

WHY. Also, WHAT? How does any of this deepen one's understanding of a story? Oh, here's what a bunch of dipshits think is going to happen? Cool. Every day I grow more jealous of Atlantis for getting washed away for unspecified sins

NEW: Several FBI special agents tied to the 2022 search of Trump's Mar A Lago estate have been fired, three sources familiar with the matter tell NBC News. The firings days after FBI Director Kash Patel took heat over his locker room celebration at the Olympics.

If you were wondering whether MN's most senior GOP lawmaker would betray his own constituents to curry Trump's favor, worry no longer.

Forgive me if I’m wrong but didn’t he write a very stupid book about how there should not be a social safety net

shit i'm starting to worry the racists in the white house who love doing racism might be racist

so fun fact: recently during the fraud investigations being redone by this season’s feds, MN’s rate of medicaid/medicare fraud was well below the national average nationally, it’s ≈ 6% each year; in minnesota it’s like ≈ 2.5% we know this is vindictive at this point

COLLINS: Can you explain to the American people why the US would need to strike Iran to stop them from getting a nuclear weapon if the US 'obliterated' their enrichment program last summer? JD VANCE: I'm not going to make any news on Iran today
