A post like this goes around every week and one thing I would say is that people who blog or post for a living are always gonna think posting is extremely important, what is the point in posting on a Nazis website where he tells you he’s throttling you and banning people like you?

How washed is Tom Tunney? He’s the current chair of the Mike Quigley mayoral campaign

DSA posting better raw and net favorables with Dem voters than the local congressman and both of the Brooklyn-based Democratic leaders, who are all polling at "would lose a primary here" numbers. insane

Haven’t noticed, don’t eat beef for very important reasons (think it’s boring)

I wouldn’t be laughing at anyone being called anything if I looked like that, are you kidding me brother

I don't think accusing Nicholas Kristoff of the New York Times of being an antisemite Hitler super fan because he decided to write a straightforward report of what his sources told him is going to work

Today Deborah Lipstadt— who built a career on defending the memory of the Shoah & demanding historical justice for its victims— is amplifying a call for New York Times editors to face Nuremberg-style public hanging

“Say … what’s a mountain goat doing way up here in a cloud bank?”

Some of you doubted

Happy Black Helicopter Day to all who celebrate.

it's always morbidly funny when a Democratic politician decides to make a Primary Me, Specifically sign and hang it on their back

“The Elder Scrolls” is what they say about you when you’re on your phone!

Direct consequence of putting police on trains, btw

The last time the US had the universal policy of forcibly removing disabled people from public life (particularly people with severe mental illness), the end result was a horrific amount of human rights abuses. No one demanding institutionalization has explained what they would do differently.

Project 2025 was predicated on the idea that the President and agencies should consolidate and use power to unilaterally implement the conservative politics agenda. This is incompatible with the centrist, institutionalist wing of the Democratic Party. They do not want to do that, ever, for anything

Kid is definitely a talker. No clue where she got that from

People should read the article because it actually doesn’t say what the headline implies that it says, but it’s still poorly reasoned. Obvs people more invested in the Inflation Reduction Act can correct me, but I was not under the impression that it was a climate first piece of legislation

iirc the Iranian government is paying some digital media company to make their videos, which implies some level of professionalism. Trump’s getting his slop from White House employees who are goofing around on their lunch breaks

Don't care about Platner, wish there were a better candidate, ultimately I think his deal is he is 40 years old and listened to too many political podcasts for ten years. The male brain can't withstand that kind of thing without taking severe damage.

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that the Israelis set up a *secret military base* on Iraqi soil prior to the war against Iran, with the collaboration of the United States, and then they fired on Iraqi soldiers who almost discovered it.

Worth thinking about how basically everything about legalizing sports gambling has been awful while the worst thing about legalizing marijuana is, like, restaurant revenue is down because people drink less.

BLOCK: JUSTIFIED

“My ambition is to change this country” ok I’m ready to ruin my life again, you can go ahead and announce

Fuckin White Sox

I agreed about this until the CIA Centrist Governor rolled over after being elected with a mandate and thus am compelled to point out that there is a much larger venn diagram overlap with Fight/Progressive than Fight/Liberal outside like, the Bulwark.

Where will you 🫵 be when Mike Quigley tries to be the YIMBY candidate

Brother of that murdered police officer is turning his enology into a defense of Erika Kirk. When I die please don’t turn my funeral into a carnival where you stand in front of my dead body and talk about Hasan Piker or whatever

Musk really is the embodiment of what is driving most of the data center backlash I suspect. a bunch of arrogant, shifty eyed god damn liars just plowing ahead with tech they themselves say will put everyone out of a job bsky.app/profile/keta...

Aside from the fact that the people who didn't vote for Harris because of the genocide didn't cost her the election, the Callais decision was coming regardless of who won in 2024. Really you should still be mad at the loss in 2016 for this. That's what lost us this court for a generation.

“Why don’t all of the pro-Palestine people ever protest republicans” because they don’t care when they are protested, and in fact think it’s funny

there's a reason woo is comorbid with fascism and it's not because hitler specifically loved the occult, it's because magical thinking is inherently reactionary

Nothing can prepare you for who's singing this National Anthem (via lpaulfranklin / TT)

I don't go online to do politics. I go online to blow off steam and run my big fat mouth

I’d like to revisit this, what was Josh Shapiro, presumably a man who wants to be the next Democratic nominee for President, thinking when he decided Charlie Kirk getting popped was more deserving of this kind of gesture than the anniversary of 9/11

Apparently the audio track from the Charlie Kirk assassination is now an outfit transition video?! I can’t wtf hard enough.

allow me to guess what this is really about for the great mass of you that are american: it's fucking joe biden isn't it? you literally just do not wish to admit that he was wrong and his critics on the left were right

Bert and Ernie should have their own show. I don't want to have to watch Sesame Street to see what they're up to. I'm not 5

They should have cast Stavvy in the Odyssey as the one fun fat guy on the boat.

Now, to be blunt, the problem is that regardless of the details of any hypothetical peace settlement or the nature of Jordanian rule from 1948-1967 the *current status quo* is that Israeli Jews beyond the Green Line have civil rights and citizenship and Palestinians do not. That's apartheid.

Two reasons: 1) Left-wing presidential campaigns have historically been very good for DSA 2) the Presidency is up for grabs and has an enormous amount of authority that state and municipal offices simply do not, and has even more considering the legal precedents Trump has set

really great to see all the big expert lawyers claiming, contrary to the managers of the January 6th team, that you had to climb the ladder from individual rioters to the President. the attorneys themselves have claimed that Garland dicked around and did not want to charge the president.

The grousing about Barack Obama being on island time from the left is incredibly misplaced. He has substantially different politics and I suspect he’s still very influential with Democratic voters. If he were to get involved with Democratic Party politics again it would turn out badly for us

Getting called on after zoning out in a meeting and replying "this used to be a vast prairie"

NEW: Investigators found that leaders of a prison gang in Puerto Rico were selling inmates drugs in exchange for voting for Gov. Jenniffer González-Colón, a longtime Republican. After Trump’s election, prosecutors were told not to pursue charges.

JB Pritzker: “There are a lot of people who don’t like Netanyahu, but you shouldn’t take it out on Israel. It’s a democracy that elected him. There are a lot of people who don’t like Trump. Should we be tossed into the Hague as a country because of Trump?” ?

In what seems to have been a hostile interview with Jewish Insider, Rahm Emmanuel -Says he would immediately suspend all taxpayer military assistance to Israel, not phase it out -Would condition military sales to Israel on peace-efforts -Doesn't commit to supporting Iron Dome systems in the future
