Sometimes you wouldn't know that America ostensibly won the Cold War.

after failed military incursion, us government responds with economic sanctions

So much wrong here: 1. There was some new hiring, so this number is off by about 100K 2. Unlike most businesses, personnel spending is a tiny fraction (5-6%) of federal outlays 3. Spending has actually increased 4. Many have noticed worse services! donmoynihan.substack.com/p/a-year-on-...

There is not one five year old American that is better off because we threw his classmate in a concentration camp. Period.

At it's heart, public policy should be done with absolute joy.

BHATTACHARYA: I do not believe patients' care was disrupted. If there were disruptions, it's the responsibility of the researchers, not the NHS HASSAN: That is an unacceptable and outrageous response. You can make an edict - 'Don't disrupt care!' - but that can be a very complicated thing

Unless you are storming the Capitol, at which point here is your pardon and filled out job application for ICE.

Cover up.

We’re just not a free country. Any American watching this play out between regime forces and journalists overseas would recognize it for what it is.

"I'm coming to Boston and I'm bringing hell with me." --Homan in February "Do I expect violence to escalate? Absolutely." -- Tom Homan in March "I actually thought about getting up and throwing that man a beating right there in the middle of the room" -- Homan in July, referring to a D congressman

The man overseeing the occupied state of Minnesota uses the language of a domestic violence abuser about Americans he is murdering in the streets.

One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings. This can't be "reformed"

Absolute cinema.

They just told me that I can eat one piece of chicken and a piece of broccoli, and that I shouldn’t buy my children toys.

What does Secretary Rollins think American families should eat for dinner?   "...a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, a corn tortilla, and one other thing."  My family ate like this in Soviet Ukraine. This isn't the American way.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

CBS News: Why can't the people being gunned down by the masked agents find a way to live with people who are different than them? Trash.

it is the policy of this government to treat democratic-led states as conquered territories and the people therein as something like hostiles or even enemy combatants

It is the position of Fox News that the government is allowed to summarily execute American citizens if they are LGBT, and I have to assume that anyone who appears on Fox News is ok with that.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

Really important for the left - and our donors - to understand the machinery they are building.

“The top donor to the Republican Party is running a company making sexual deepfakes, even of children.” Is a 100% accurate message that leaders should be repeating.

Frankly, I don't think of America as a predator. And I miss having allies.

Same day, one is lying.

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders

"We are firing so many Americans, you wouldn't believe it," says the American president.

The networks were afraid not to run Trump because they assumed he would use his office to punish them if they didn’t. The irony is that this is what Biden was warning about, a warning they chose not to share with America.

Wait, Biden wasn't empathetic? And Trump shouting fake numbers as he tanks the economy and Biden talking about real numbers as he made it the envy of the world are, uh, not comparable like this.

Instead of watching someone not actually do a pull up at the airport, could I just get the cash benefits for delayed flights back?

This is honestly one of the saddest and most pathetic things I have ever seen someone do.

During the last Trump Administration, Tom Cotton called for using the military to execute Americans in the street for opposing Trump.

Why is House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries lying on Donald Trump's behalf? The US-Mexico border was not insecure last year and secure this year. That is not true.

I just can't.

ICE vs the clergy

the thing that strikes me about this — again, besides it being false — is the venom and disrespect for the people who come here to work and build better lives. they aren’t “servants.”

We are 16 years into the ACA replacement being right around the corner. If the replacement existed, it could drive a car.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Nothing more Democratic than stealing defeat from the jaws of victory. I’m just so tired of being so disappointed, and at this point, it’s on me.

Cornell pulled a Columbia and sold out their reputation and credibility in exchange for proving that they are an easy mark.

I can’t stand this inflammatory rhetoric from the left.

this is the most successful a CIA officer has been at toppling a government in years.

How can you see someone so effortlessly authentic and not think that he is part of the future of the Democratic Party?

They weren’t negotiating on ACA subsides when the government was open either, for what it’s worth.

any democrat running for the presidency must promise to obliterate trump's ballroom. starting on day one. im serious.

The people who tear gas elementary schools and traumatize children while tearing families apart has never once been the good guy.

Participation trophy generation.

It shouldn't take years to learn that there is a health care plan.

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

The same people who insisted devout Catholic Joe Biden was leading a “war on Christianity” are now cheering Trump on as his armed goons assault clergymen.

Not only is this not how appropriations work, but it is such a great example of why Dems can't vote for an approps bill - Trump just does whatever he wants to do, and doesn't care about the laws. It's about trust!!
