if anyone is interested, here is the real reason: spinclass.substack.com/p/spin-class...

"Mr. President, you need to make the case" is muddying the waters for nothing at all. The only reason you would do this instead of just saying you oppose a war of aggression with another country is if you sincerely think there's some acceptable scenario. But there isn't! This is crazy.

just so it's said, I'm not qualified to be the director of the FBI, but I think I would be ~ 90% more competent and 65% less embarrassing than the current one (i'm looking for work rn and was advised to cast a wide net)

this is an incredibly common tactic for right-wingers: the only democrats that won't stfu about pronouns are literally gavin newsom and rahm emmanuel, who mention it in every single formal interview!

who in PA is telling this dipshit he has a future in democratic politics? your entire state is on probabtion until ya'll get rid of fetterman. keep your local dumbasses to yourselves

It is a bit disgraceful, for example, that the first person to ask the US Ambassador to Israel where precisely he considers the borders of Israel to be is....Tucker Carlson.

a diverse range of voices. the libertarians hate women and think they should get to fuck 14 year olds. the conservatives, they want should get to fuck 14 year olds and hate women. and the gadflies? well the gadflies they think they should be able to fuck 14 year olds but get this, they hate women

The tragedy of John Fetterman is that he used to dress like a slob but have an encouraging spirt, making him an Oaf of Rugged Individuality, one of America’s great oaf groups. But now he dresses like a slob and whines all the time, making him an Oaf of Misery

sure looks like the only qualified candidate here is the 20-something-year old... 🤷‍♂️

The subheadline on this NYT piece is going to turn me into the Joker. Like... this... is exactly what trans people have been saying was going to happen for years.

Someone a decade+ younger than I asked me if I saw the Matrix in theaters and how cool that must have been

Hanania less of a gadfly and more of a malarial mosquito

so we paid the tariffs and now the corporations that passed the costs on to me and you are the ones that are going to be reimbursed, do i have that correct

Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible “America at 250!” achievement

If you’re an American service member who gets killed in a retaliatory strike, your family can take comfort in the fact that it was done in service of making the host of Celebrity Apprentice feel like a big man for a minute, before he moved on to something else and forgets about this forever

The more I think about the DC press slagging AOC for a lack of FP depth while Donald Trump is President, twice, is making me angry enough to explode. The fuck is wrong with the journalists that they're like this

Look at all their pop art references to lord of the rings, star wars, star trek, superman etc. They completely miss the point of the most didactic material, the only reason they pretend to like classical art is they think it owns “lesser” people even though this is wholly stolen valor

Deplorable state of U.S. media on display here, deliberately misleading the public. You can literally type into Google the same question @aoc.bsky.social was asked and the AI will give you her same answer because "strategic ambiguity" has been official U.S. policy her whole life.

The next Dem president, on Day One, should make public (and easily searchable) the names and duty stations (with dates) of every ICE agent. And potential candidates should start making that promise now. Can’t pardon social ostracism. And can’t facemask your name.

Obv I’m against voter ID requirements. Unless you’re voting for Gavin Newsom in which case they should cover up the “organ donor” thing on your license so nobody gets your shitty organs

“I’ll vote for a soggy ham sandwich.” Ok, great. Good for you. Well done. 1) not the point 2) a lot of people won’t 3) we need better anyway 4) and we HAVE better 5) so when people start pushing the ham sandwich 6) we say hey the soggy ham sandwich, that’s a really bad idea 7) which IS the point

when politically misguided people say "republicans and democrats are basically the same", ***THIS*** is the kind of shit they point to (thanks Hills, you can die any day now, we're fine):

the feeling of going into a jewelry store and asking for shrek was unrivaled

Guillotines are the moderate solution

This is gender.

It’s only called a concentration camp if it comes from the Auschwitz region of Poland; otherwise it’s a sparkling detention center.

trying to establish a government-mandated anti-weed "cultural norm" is how you create Cheech & Chong II by accident

kaleega?

Mr. Vice President, does it bother you to be referred to as a "White House staffer"?

i have bad news for cgp grey stans...

The mainstream media needs a "political showdown" story angle to ICE or they won't cover it. What is the red team doing and how is the blue team responding? What are the implications on the midterms or Newsom's or Pritzker's 2028 run? Los Angeles, Chicago, Minneapolis, ICE raids never slowed down.

I cannot stand the "this is a good start" discourse. The Democrats in Congress do not want to abolish ICE. They have proposed a series of bog-standard reforms regurgitated by a think tank. Everyone knows they do not work. The Democrats supporting this do not care. They just want to move on.

Today, 31 unions & labor organizations representing over 130,000 workers in Portland and OR sent a letter to @mayorkwilson.bsky.social & District Attorney Vasquez demanding that they enforce the law and get justice for the children, elderly, & working people tear gassed by ICE on 1/31.

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

@wyden.senate.gov more people should be asking you why you continue to support this man: www.huffpost.com/entry/democr...

umm fyi!

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

A+ ad placement on ESPN’s trade tracker

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

"rich dipshit owner doesn't understand the industry he's bought into and clumsily destroys what made it good" feels less like a narrative unique to the washington post and more like the music that's been playing in the background of all our lives for at least 40 years
