A vote for Newsom is a vote for a man who will discard you rather than suffer the slightest political inconvenience.

One of the big reasons so many liberal orgs suck is that they’re more about “how close are you to the Clintons/Obamas” w personnel than about “do you have any idea how to be effective?”

Third, when is Ken Vogel going to quit fucking that chicken.

Democrats are not being useless push overs. I feel lost in this new world. But, I don’t mind lol

Windowless jets will have less drag, business reporters are sure to hype this thing up. Small problem, if one can’t see a horizon that perfectly matches what your inner ear is telling your brain, your body tends to think it’s been poisoned and you will get air sickness.

I’m so shocked an anti LGBTQ hate group backed by some of the worst of America’s oligarchs is untruthful. Seriously, The Advocate has been one of the few places reporting on this.

Researchers say the Alliance Defending Freedom is misrepresenting their work to harm LGBTQ+ people.

The idea that Weiss ragequit not knowing she’d get wingnut welfare is like saying you don’t know if the sun will come up tomorrow; maybe you technically have to wait to confirm it but you can make some assumptions in the meantime

Socialism

behold the bold and brave washington post opinion section (under new management), lol

We're not at war with Venezuela, these boats are many hundreds of lines from our waters, much less our shores, there is no threat, this is just murder. I really do think everyone from the SecDef to the guy who pushed the button should be tried for murder on this.

What does a bubble this big mean? Honestly, I don’t know. Like I think money will still exist after the LLM bubble pops but I can’t promise it. I hope no one is over leveraged in the S&P 500.

when it hits the fan youre going to hear people saying “there was no way to see this coming” and its important to remember those people will be lying to you

Federal workers furloughed because of the shutdown have had their out of office messages changed without their consent to blame the Democrats. Even though they didn’t do it, by not immediately resigning, they are active participants. If you’re a federal employee, it’s time to resign.

In a nutshell: A jobs report discussing job losses might be a reflection of Trump terrorizing immigrants not employers shedding jobs. AKA a worker flees the country and there is no new worker to replace them. The U.S. is about to get much smaller and older.

Ahead of today’s jobs report, it’s important to remember that we might not be seeing true job losses but actually a declining workforce population. Since March roughly 1.7 million foreign born workers left the country — that’s more people than who have entered the workforce.

Floridians can’t stop talking about doing away with property taxes. Oddly they never discuss how ending property taxes basically means they will defund the police. Sheriff and city policy budgets are out of control. It’s time to cut them down to size.

I’m not a theologian but calling out the horrendous treatment of immigrants is a pretty normal thing for a Pope to do. So how are so-call conservative Catholics offended by it?

As a Miami area resident, I’ve kept an eye on home prices here. It’s completely a bubble and it’s starting to burst. Everything is way over valued, rents are off too. Miami is overdue for a strong correction. Home prices and rents here are about to tumble.

In China, if business leaders, bankers, or billionaires commit serious crimes as part of running their business they are executed. The U.S. legal and political systems should be taking notes.

“As predicted by many activists and civil rights advocates, ICE is increasingly becoming a force tasked with enforcing the political will of the administration and straying further and further from its original mission,” EFF’s @MGuariglia.bsky.social told @Truthout.org. truthout.org/articles/tr...

At the end of the day, the OMB determines what is and is not essential during a shutdown. Future Democratic presidents should use this as a way to enact their agendas. Example: Instead of doing what Trump did and declare student loans essential, make them unenforceable and void.

The shutdown means one million people who serve in the U.S. military are working without pay. How long can a regime go without paying its soldiers? History tells us not very long.

Nick Fuentes claims there is a performative nature to Charlie Kirk’s widow’s grieving. Fuentes stated: “She looks like she’s over the moon. She’s happy as a clam.”

Defunding the police is a good thing.

Harvard joins other Ivy League schools in capitulating to Donald Trump. When this started I said Harvard was a school for the rich and would bow to this billionaire. I was not wrong. The next administration must investigate these schools for their actions.

its hard to look at that speech in front of the generals as anything other than his pitch to the military to start shooting the media and democrats

people were worried about a behind the scenes loyalty test and once again they get around outrage by just doing the thing right out in the open

The regime believes there is an “enemy within” that must be met with military force. When this happens in other nations, a normal response is to form a rebel army or other partisan liberation activities. Sometimes provinces split from the national government and declare the need for regime change.

BREAKING: Judge William Young, a Reagan appointee, delivers the most scathing legal rebuke of the Trump era, ruling that Trump and his cabinet illegally targeted pro-Palestinian students for deportation to "strike fear" into First Amendment protesters. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Attempts by some in media to make Cuomo look viable in the general election should be taken with a grain of salt. Remember, many of these same people thought Cuomo was heading to a coronation in the primary. They have no credibility.

Will Schumer and Jeffries endorse Zohran Mamdani? Yawn, no one cares. Mamdani polling at least at 45 percent, everything indicates he will once again surpass 50 percent — possibly 55 percent. 2nd, if they don’t endorse, the myth of Blue No Matter Who is finally broken.

The world cannot stop the U.S. military. But Illinois could start prosecuting federal agents who kidnap, maim, or murder civilians. Pritzker has the power, the question is does he care about the people of Illinois enough to fight back?

Jk Rowling is trash

Democrats are already starting to sell us piece by piece, and for what? Nothing.

AIPAC messes in Dem primaries and also bankrolled 109 GOP election-deniers. No self-respecting Dem candidate should meet with them let alone take their money. If you want a Dem Party that fights back, get AIPAC out of our primaries - and support candidates brave enough to take them on.

Again, fantastic argument but now you have to do something. There have been a lot of really great ideas ranging from state level investigations of civil rights violations to just leaving the public infrastructure these facilities rely on in disrepair. Gotta do something. bsky.app/profile/carl...

Gotta start actually doing stuff now: State investigations and prosecutions of federal law enforcement who are committing crimes and assaulting people. Maybe think outside the box.

"said Musk was part of a 'global network of the far right . . . a global network of billionaires like Elon Musk who want to take away people’s rights, take away people’s freedoms, and we need to have that argument.'”

good lord, dick durbin wants democrats to give up their only remaining leverage this year for an *informal commitment* from republicans. www.semafor.com/article/09/2...

By claiming being anti capitalist is terrorism, half of Gen Z and nearly as many millennials, myself included, would be labeled terrorists. Governments that label large swathes of their citizens terrorists are unlikely to stand for very long.

Food delivery guy was attacked by a dozen masked ICE agents explicitly for engaging in free speech.

Is media trying to make the term employer catfishing a thing? Just call it what it is: Employers are lying and committing fraud.

People should really ask themselves why are the elites so threatened by such a mild campaign. Mamdani, sadly, is not proposing to tax them into poverty or jail them. Yet still they have done far more to stop him than anything they did to try to stop Trump.

The people of Venezuela have every right to defend themselves from invasion — including against the U.S. We would do well to remember that the United States doesn’t have a high success rate when invading other nations, especially ones in tropical climates.

This is what political violence looks like.

The elites are pulling out all the stops to destroy Zohran Mamdani’s campaign. It’s futile.

Superintendent Ian Roberts of Des Moines Public Schools was detained Friday by federal agents. The reason for his detention was not clear, according to the school district. Roberts’ whereabouts are also, alarmingly, unclear. trib.al/ifiCl4B

Sending troops with orders to use “full force” on a civilian population is political violence.

How often do politicians claim landlords are struggling and must charge crazy rents? These landlords talk about making six figures a year in passive income charging BELOW market rents.
