Citizens are in the driver's seat now imho. It's cool if some politicians are quicker on the uptake than others but they are following us now, I'm not waiting for them anymore

well, Ukraine had to deal with Poroshenko before they got to elect Zelenskyy

the thing about American Yoon Moment is it probably ends in a deeply weird two years of President Hakeem Jeffries

Bring them home

like I do think people On Here can get pretty carried away with dunking on the south and it's very glass houses but it really always is white southern libs who refuse to contend with the fact that yes the south has a notable history & present of violent white supremacy even in the context of the US

please read the actual text of it sometime. it is More Difficult than impeachment and still leaves him in office.

guys the 25th amendment isn't actually a vehicle for removing a president from office for being a madman it's a vehicle for temporarily transferring power to the vp if the president is in a coma and can't do it themselves. like I'm sorry but the only mechanism is impeachment which is broken.

as someone from the south I hate that one meme that southern white liberals love to pull out for a lot of reasons but in particular "brick oven pizzas and craft breweries" as a signifier of urban snobbery is the most southern city thing ever. that is Greenville, South Carolina you are describing.

thank you YES

“nobody is insider trading off his death so it almost certainly didn’t happen” really sums up the state of the world in 2026 huh

maybe the minor electrical incident was in his brain it wasn't but this span of time before we see him again where we can imagine it was is important for morale

this is edging

this website has a certain type of user in mind and you ain't them

if the president says he wants to blow up the moon, you should be very scared about what he might accidentally blow up in pursuit of the moon and everything downstream of his diminished mental state, but the ball is in your court to tell me how he’s actually going to blow up the moon

that shit's just fuckin' up there, huh?

[takes a moment to consider that "shooting war with the EU" is a live possibility] hey quick question. what the fuck is happening.

the thing about the possibility of trump starting a shooting war with the EU is that very suddenly one of the options for "how does it happen" is "the french"

we are going to win but we are 100% in the "worse before it gets better" stage

“does the fiction film have coherent radical politics?” is a question that sounds like “can you take me to the potty? i can’t go by myself!”

Folks, Trump has brought the full force of ICE to bear on a mid-sized city and he can't even stop the demonstrations there. He's not going to be able to cancel the midterm elections by fiat or station his goons outside more than a handful of polling places.

yall lmao they are so cooked

they keep talking about it like it's this secret win button that turns the world greyscale forever because they don't know what it does but it sounds scary and then a bunch of severely panicky people on the left take that at face value because they also don't know what it does but it sounds scary

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003 when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

One reason I have zero tolerance for transphobia, why I've come to find it completely disqualifying, is that it is in the nasty, tedious forefront of all right-wing rhetoric. Anyone who still thinks this prejudice is compatible with being on the left or being a liberal is not someone I have time for

I think they really believe shows of force and executing people is going to make Americans more docile and compliant, and I also think they’ve got that backwards. Regular people are getting angrier, braver, and more resolute.

he's really hitting the whole crazy shit bucket list huh

oh fucking now what

"the US is facing potential Europe-wide sanctions because of a invasion of Greenland by Donald Trump" sounds like the premise of a bad fanfic

5,000 unarmed civilians willing to standup and fight back when our police and national guard decide to roll over and play possum hoping the fascists will just go away.

you and many of your followers have probably already seen this but I thought it did a good job laying out a list of targets and categorizing strategic considerations for each vis a vis scope and lift: www.thenation.com/article/acti...

what is this zapp brannigan logic

We can’t complain about protest and action. I just hate that it takes a white woman to make people actually stand up and care. The violence and torture ICE has been perpetrating against brown people has been equally as horrific and has gone on for a full year now.

ICE has murdered THIRTY TWO PEOPLE in detention centers. Four in the last week. www.msn.com/en-us/news/c...

oh rip to my notifications lol

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Chuck Schumer is the most powerful Democrat whose actions can only really be explained by him being a genuinely dumb guy

sure he's also nefarious and bad in other ways but there's a lot of shit he does that can only be explained by having rocks for brains.

Gotta say, yesterday would have been the funniest day for it to happen. Alas.

>we’re at the European States are releasing joint statements on the territorial integrity of Greenland phase of the Trump Presidency

Making a list of all the things regular people can say that trans women can’t unless we want to get harassed off social media. Does anyone have like five thousand sheets of paper and a really good pen.

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

A vision for a *what now*, new york times writer?

oh he's just actually lost his mind at this point oh. oh no.

what in the god damn hell are they talking about

everyone is waiting for some responsible authority to pull the lever and make this end. they do not wish to believe that such a lever does not exist. you give one totally deranged party control of the entire government, this is what happens
