My vote in the 2028 D primary for POTUS will hinge almost entirely on the % of this Administration they promise to imprison

People don't need more evidence to conclude he's a white supremacist. Evidence isn't the issue here. The problem is convincing people that white supremacy is a threat rather than something they can elide and quietly benefit from without actually saying they like it.

you see I think it's good when a social media company removes posts telling you to drink bleach to cure covid and bad when it removes posts warning the community about violent masked thugs

When I say that the Atlantic is the official magazine of the donor class this is what I’m talking about. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I now realize that for my entire adult life, I've had a very narrow conception of what "supporting and defending the Constitution" means. Standing on business when armed agents of the State are knocking on your door is way more important, by a country mile, than anything I did overseas

No incarnation of any political party at any time in any country on earth has ever spent so much time thinking about children’s genitals.

The key divide in the Democratic Party during Trump II is between people who want to turn the clock back to 2014 and people who recognize a clean break with the past when they see one. "Let's get back to the way things were" isn't a viable vision for the future and some people have no other.

Law enforcement historically loves announcing their undercover operations ahead of time

all around, all i see are the dumbest, most evil people alive succeeding beyond anyone’s wildest imagination

"We're gonna crash some planes if you don't fund ICE."

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.

the hardest part of living in Portland is having your house burn down every single night and then having to rebuild it during the day. the amount of money i spend just in drywall is insane.

Pritzker has been great. But these reports that IL state police are assisting ICE, harassing and beating people who record ICE, and helping arresting protesters all seem to be supported by some video. If state cops are helping feds suppress rights over governor’s objections, that’s a big problem.

NYT finally found their active voice to describe the kidnapping/disappearing of people the government doesn't like.

Hey remember when I posted this and a hundred liberal scolds showed up in my comments to lecture me about it

Like Dems had something that a ton of young people, young men, were captivated by, but they were like "They must be stopped! Won't someone think of the private health insurance companies we all love?"

Between this, the epstein list, obsession with trans kids playing sports, & neverending conspiracy theories about what's going on in schoolsin general, you realize that the primary concern of the Republican party and its supporters is their deep desire to abuse children

I basically don't buy meat unless it's on clearance now. A pound of 80/20 is $7. And it's just not a story. Every disaster becomes a natural one when the chuds are in charge.

Remember, offering money for medicaid was unconstitutionally coercive, so obviously a republican president cutting of federal funds for electing a mayor he doesn’t like is exactly what the founders intended

The alleged shooter in Michigan. Weird that Vance and Patel haven’t tweeted out this info. 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽 www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

so ICE is a jobs program for men who like to hit women and get away with it

If they had a right-wing, “tough-on-crime” coded mayor there would be endless national profiles about him and how he finally brought sanity back to Chicago.

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured

white supremacists and capitalists got so mad at one 18 month stretch of increased labor power that they've agreed to reverse the most complex economy in human history to an agrarian state

On the street, it's got a dozen names. Some call 'em White Devils. Simple, classic. Some cats call 'em The Levelers, 'cause they take you from a 10 on the pain scale down to a zero. Smooths you right out. You call it Tylenol. I call it death.

Every pundit who took at face value the idea that the Right sincerely cares about free speech, or ideological diversity, or in fact has any principles at all, should be wearing a dunce cap and writing a lengthy mea culpa right now. Not for our catharsis but for public awareness at least

Donald Trump has long treated 14-year-olds as adults so this makes sense

its kind of insane that we’ve been forced to watch rightwingers openly celebrate and taunt everyone over the death of people like trayvon martin for over a decade now and now they’re trying to grandstand over the one time it’s personally affected them and political project

Every libertarian's favorite senator, openly cheerleading for cancel culture.

So the enforcers of laws will take away your money and power even if you haven’t broken any laws?

From an Atlantic editor. I cannot get over how the entire centrist hivemind is attempting to wish into existence a person, and a movement, that does not exist. You are journalists, you are supposed to describe things as they are, not how you want them to be!

If ever you needed evidence that Gavin Newsom is not your leftwing savior, I want you to notice that his eulogy for Charlie Kirk includes an appeal that we should "carry on his work" before listing a bunch of moderate talking points about coming together that Charlie Kirk never believed.

Any Dem with national aspirations should have at the bare minimum a comprehensive plan to denazify our government institutions with wanton brutality

Gutting healthcare, education and science funding was all worth it to save these 400 extraordinary people from paying a few extra percent in taxes.

today would be a great day for a democrat to get their mic cut on fox news bc they wont stop bringing up epstein despite the topic they were invited on to talk about

Dems are too afraid of sounding classist in the economic sense to make the obvious observation that the Trump GOP has leaned hard into being the part of trash. That’s their elevator pitch. Are you human garbage tired of being made to feel inferior to basically decent people? We’re on your side!

almost hard to remember when the center and right were having a years-long meltdown about free speech on campus because students protested Milo Yiannopoulos speeches

Noooo not my beloved president Bill Clinton, if the Epstein stuff indicts him too then I say it’s not worth arresting Trump for raping kids! They really got us checkmated here!!

Thank God the Supreme Court gave the president's secret police the right to profile and detain anyone based on any immutable characteristic today, knowing the president himself will never reveal himself to be writing Zodiackian poems and pervert kiddie sketches to a world-historic pedophile.

What is cool is if you checkout dem senior leadership you will see that none of them are talking about popular protest lol

The demobilizing, deflating, and depressing effect of watching day after day as the dumbest, most vapid lickspittles alive are elevated and handed success beyond your wildest dreams is a feature, not a bug, of authoritarian / nationalist movements like this one.

An interesting thing I learned recently, reading the great muckraker Wayne Barrett: the only reason we have those images of Giuliani covered in Ground Zero soot is because he was making his way to the command center he had brilliantly had built at WTC 7, then fled panicked bsky.app/profile/dave...

Ah fuck my lawyer got drunk & kidnapped a woman & then her husband went to save her but he hit my lawyer’s car from behind when my lawyer slammed on the brakes to pull in to a gas station to buy boner pills 🇺🇸🗽
