Happy #Oscars Day! Why wait? Congratulations to Michael B. Jordan, Jessie Buckley, Sean Penn and Amy Madigan.

trump saw how much you guys loved Big Boat Stuck and tried to join in by doing All Boats Stuck and now suddenly its not funny anymore? make up your minds

Tim Walz offering a positive vision of traditional masculinity and being loathed for it was low key one of the most blackpillling events of the past decade plus.

me and the other scheming viziers are wearing shoes gifted to us by the king that are way too big. we look ridiculous. the whole court is laughing at us behind our backs. honestly this is a pretty low point for us, the scheming viziers

Karl Marx on the American Civil War:

There is no method to "federalize" elections

On the other hand, those who did not vote for Harris are also very much responsible for the millions dead from USAID cuts and the erosion of democracy at home and the attacks on foreign countries abroad because the Trump people didn't exactly hide their intentions here.

“Every single democrat condemned it, but they didn’t all use the same phrasing, which is terrible, and also if they had done that I’d be making fun of them for that right now.”

Normally I wouldn't put an account this popular on blast because I'm not suicidal, but this is asinine theater kid criticism made out of a refusal to focus your rage on deserving targets. If you think the real problem with Trump bombing Iran is the Democrats, log off and stay logged off.

you want to here an unpopular take? the iranian regime sucks. the venezuelan regime sucks. THE TRUMP REGIME SUCKS. as liberals we need to dig out heads out of the paper bag and remember what our principles really are

A common refrain from people is unrestrained outrage that smaller numbers are smaller than bigger numbers. The People, in their wisdom, decided to give all power to Republicans and the earliest that can change is November.

The replies and quotes to this are very mad, but it's good actually for the last Democratic President to be giving advice and what not to the up and comers. I wish I could say other retired Democratic Presidents were doing the same.

i promise you, you will not guess what this is responding to god i love the Internet

This seems to be a common reply to my thread, so I'll address it here. Basically, the argument is who cares if this is a misleading attack on Newsom, he's bad so if it hurts him it's fine. And I think it's important to push back on misinformation so that when there are legitimate criticisms...

this comparison is going to drive a subset of people insane but this site is essentially Taiwan for the centre-left/left-wing power users of Twitter

If Trump gloats about hockey we have to burn down the White House again that’s the rules

I can’t be certain but I think the last British monarch to imprison a sibling was Edward IV in 1477.

I don't think I've ever seen gears shift this fast before.

Kalecki wrote a paper "The Political Economy of Full Employment" arguing that when working class wages go up, the bosses would sabotage the economy to preserve the hierarchy.

FDRbros…we’re so back

Soon.

Kid Rock: "god bless the stars and stripes, I love my truck almost as much as Donny's dumptruck" or some shit idk Bad Bunny:

The media desperately wanted to give the right a cultural moment and the problem is that they have no culture.

thank you bad bunny for allowing all the thirty eight year olds on bluesky to do the leo pointing meme at the television

No Kings includes Draft Kings

They shouldn't be allowed to have commercials for horror movies until after halftime.

This type of thing where voters think their vote is just a nice little I'm mad button they can press instead of an actual serious responsibility they have infuriates me

When Cheney supports Harris for democracy: “Politics make strange bedfellows?!?! What are you insinuating? Why how DARE you!” — Bluesky When Mamdani laughs it up with Trump: “Genius. He knows what it takes to reach out while still holding firm to his convictions.” — also Bluesky

Krasner is the boogey man for Philly suburb conservatives and only got 38% in his first primary, I actually voted for Joe Khan the new Bucks DA back in 17. He is right here on ICE. Hell, Bucks County has a Sheriff that won by 10 running against ICE.

We should have listened when the modems screamed at us.

Many of you have truly impressive, Cal Ripken-like streaks of never clicking through a link

People just going out here saying the literal opposite of what happened. Thune caved! Thune did! This is a cave by Thune and Senate Republicans, any possible way you cut it.

I really, truly need people to understand that every path to legislative checks on ICE/CBP runs through passing a DHS funding bill. For limitations on ICE/CBP, passing a hypothetical better bill>passing the bill the House passed>the state of shutdown. Shutdown is not a useful goal in itself.

A day after Democrats in the Senate said they can't support DHS funding. Smh.

I've seen the comparison made to the incessant cynicism to Denethor in Return of the King telling everyone to abandon their posts and flee. Lots of Denethor posting in response to Bouie's very reasonable post here.

Morris is correct of course, but a lot of the replies are the very common Mom is the bad one for not stopping Daddy people on here like to make about the interaction between Democrats and Republicans.

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

kidnapping a 5 year old to bait his father and then shipping them thousands of miles away should put you in prison, yes, but it should also cause every friend and family member you have ever had to permanently reject you in disgrace, and if they don’t, they share your shame

I have to say, I’m not convinced of the productiveness of the Americans who didn’t want any of this and the Europeans who didn’t want any of this yelling at the other lot that it’s all their fault on the website for people who didn’t want any of this

I hadn't read this until just now and like, this interview is what has people mad about Schumer ignoring ICE as an electoral issue? Really?

My wife and I do actually have a long-standing agreement to never discuss the 2008 primary because we voted for different people and as it turns out we still feel we are correct about our choices.

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.

If the Lincoln assassins had followed through and killed Johnson as well, acting President Lafayette Foster would have Let a caretaker government until General Grant could be seated as President 3 years early.

they're doing it for gender, imo
