Judge Tosses Trump’s Lawsuit Against NYT in Scathing Order: A Complaint Is ‘Not a Protected Platform to Rage’

AOC Defends Her Vote Against GOP Resolution by Going Scorched Earth: ‘We Should Be Clear About Who Charlie Kirk Was’

The modern right is so built on online grievances and hatred of the left that many of its most prominent voices cannot bring themselves to criticize their own side’s (many) excesses purely out of principle. There’s always a “fear the Democrats” argument angle. Lame.

Donald Trump is about to have me indicted on bogus charges. Here’s why I’m still glad I got him elected in 2016. by James Comey

@chaikomanduri.bsky.social Just saw you on @thebeat.msnbc.com and yes I agree with you...Wall Street has not learned their lesson with T cuz he made their wet dreams come true. A lot of them want this to happen, they don't care about our nation and their greed knows no bounds.

Hey Dems take a page from Daniel Koh and soberly point out all the batshit insane, insanely destructive things this administration says on the daily.

FOX: “Is the Trump administration bringing people together, you think?” KOH: “He mocked President Biden with stage 4 cancer — calling him a stupid, mean son of a bitch and a bad guy we shouldn’t feel sorry for… I think he’s sowing division.”

Cleta Mitchell thinks President Donald Trump may declare a national emergency to allow him to take control of national elections. Her comments will add to growing concern that Trump is plotting a way to use his power over the military and federal law enforcement to rig next year’s vote.

Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians have certainly said things about me that I found offensive, even outrageous. It never crossed my mind to call up the networks and say, "Hey, get rid of this guy." Because that's not how America works. play.prx.org/listen?ge=pr...

open.substack.com/pub/stevesch... What is the crime? Don’t you know? The refusal to love Trump, abide his unrelenting corruption and scumbaggery. The refusal to bow, scrape or submit to the storms of insanity and malice make you a co- conspirator in murder…

His was one of the very few campaigns that I felt like I could donate to. I’m not even an estate, but I knew how important it was to get Democrats in there. Then he flips. He’s just a bag o’dicks like the rest of them.

You know who doesn’t get enough SM hate? @fetterman.senate.gov

Those straws have been broken hundreds of times. I vote for the traitor punishment.

Should be disbarred; even if she doesn’t.😑

EVERY yellow-bellied spineless republican of the 119th congress is COMPLICIT in this & the voters should DEMAND that EACH & EVERY ONE OF THEM face charges for their complicity.

While school boards across the country are firing teachers for commenting on CK murder and his vile work.

Our world is worth protecting. Fight for it!!!

@rweingarten.bsky.social Beautiful segment with @velshimsnbc.bsky.social 🙏 Live and Let Live!

Don't overlook this: Kash Patel was an absolute fiasco in the Epstein hearings. He basically admitted Trump's name appears extensively in the files and stupidly agreed to probe whether Trump's signature was forged. On the pod, Nicole Hemmer is brilliant on all this: newrepublic.com/article/2006...

You can just read the overview here. books.google.com/books/about/...

he didn't start it, but he definitely mainstreamed it. Two excellent books on the origins of our right wing polarization: Partisans by @pastpunditry.bsky.social When the Clock Broke by @lioneltrolling.bsky.social

I remember this switch. I'm Norwegian and studied in Massachusetts 1991-1993 when Clinton was elected. I remember being struck by the extreme rhetoric of minority whip Gingrich. I've heard others say he started the polarization we've seen since, and I agree.

Thanks to Newt Gingrich. Demonize your opponent, not your opponent's positions.

I would bet the referrents are different too. Reps referring to people, Dems referring to policies.

Use of the word "evil" in official congressional e-newsletters, over time, by party

The darkness refers to their black souls.

Nice. Sadly they're murdering democracy in broad daylight.

A letter with circular argumentation, it is like reading an etching by Escher.

Here's the entire letter to Karent Attiah from Warren Connell of the Wash Post as shared by @oliverdarcy.bsky.social in @status.news:

WHAT THE HELL

pretty telling that their lawyers had to find a basis for firing her other than the actual one, which is criticizing Charlie Kirk

This week’s episode is Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo, where the Court allowed ICE to do a little bit of racial discrimination as a treat.

🚨🚨NEW MERCH ALERT 🚨 🚨 We’ve collaborated with some talented artists on some new designs, all available at our merch store. fivefourpod.dashery.com

it’s extremely important that you understand how dumb Brett Kavanaugh really is

what ezra doesn't seem willing to accept is that charlie kirk was part of a political movement that does not think that "we are going to have to live here with each other" and is fact very interested in the elimination and/or subjugation of many, many people

The Democrats have a massive electeds problem.

Gay ppl stoned to death per the Bible, for which he is being honored. I would say we live in the dumbest timeline but they also used the Bible to defend slavery so that was probably also a maddening time of hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance.

💯 And, he said that we should have public executions, women should be submissive to their husbands, gay ppl should be stoned to death, and Michelle Obama and Judge Jackson are not smart enough to have their careers. Every dem who voted for this shit needs to be primaried.

Tell me what democrat would have been upset if he voted "no"? The answer is zero. Like many democrats he thinks they can win over Republicans at the cost of alienating "lefist." They fell into a trap alright. The same trap they fall into every damn time.

Republicans have lost as much sleep over Kirk as I have. None. They are standing on his corpse trying to score as many political points as possible. Fucking ghouls. All of them.

Right, I looked at the names and shook my head. Wrote to Jefferies and told him he was not the leader for these times. Expressed my loss of respect, not that he cares!

This white person has a list of the names that agreed to it. I’m not sure how anyone who supports human rights can. They won’t get 1 cent or second from me. If this means I have to donate to individual sites to ensure they don’t get it I will
