great, now CNN's a trump network, next thing you know the two anchors are going to start using made-up quotes to smear a muslim congresswoman as an anti-semite

We must be running low on racists.

I feel bad for everyone who says "I asked ChatGPT for advice" instead of just adding "reddit" to whatever what was their search term or topic

characteristically good work from Serwer. again saying: we have an elite impunity problem and a lot of the people and institutions that nominally oppose Trump will burn down their own before admitting that this helped produce him

"My opponent is not a fundamentalist nutter who wants to destroy the Constitution" is a curious line of attack.

The second you leave this country for even a few days, you realize the place you call home is decaying at an almost exponential pace. The realization that you don't have to live like this is stark, and that nobody in power is taking tangible actions to fix it in your lifetime is even starker.

Imo what is happening on x is that the algorithm loves racist and anti semitic content, and the people who are on there marinate in it all day, and the epstein files has offered an excuse for even left identified people to indulge in the trangressive pleasure of public bigotry as a little treat

Orange County in one image

nixon trashes the white house, carter turns the page reagan/bush trash the white house, clinton turns the page bush ii trashes the white house, obama turns the page trump trashes the white house, biden turns the page over and fucking over

the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.

sooner than later we have to start asking dem presidential candidates what their timelines are for razing the ballroom. because anything less is unacceptable.

One of the reasons we are the world's most prestigious literary magazine is because every issue we put out our contributors set the bar at writing the best poems of the century

ICYMI

stop calling us nazis just because we are invalidating IDs and rounding people up based on their skin color and putting them in concentration camps and sending them off to foreign gulags and using all that nazi imagery and banning books and dont forget about all the pedophilia. so just stop alright

“‘The persecution is the point,’ said Rep. Abi Boatman, a Wichita Democrat and the only transgender member of the Legislature, who received the [Kansas Dept of Revenue] notice on Wednesday.” To underscore that: a Kansas state legislator is among those whose driver’s license will be voided.

You are not wrong.

*stares in the War on Drugs and segregation.*

MAGA knows it is roundly and deeply hated in Minnesota, so - nothing to lose. They are fast-forwarding the use of that state as a testing ground for maximum targeted cruelty to see how much they can get away with.

Aquafina’s and McDouble’s is hilarious.

It's just insane the degree to which the federal government has simply declared war on a U.S. state. A punitive war with no discernible objective other than to immiserate its people. bsky.app/profile/apne...

I get why this is the talking point. I get not wanting to see your friends for who they really are. But women making excuses for men’s shitty behavior enables it. This was a great opportunity to say “I believe their support is real, I just wish that support was there even where we’re not around.”

historical detail I can't help but bring up: by some accounts, the event that instigated the British soldiers to open fire on Crispus Attacks and the rest of the crowd in the Boston Massacre was a soldier being hit by a snowball

This is pure gonzo journalism shit and I love it.

Remember Jeffrey Epstein’s 2011 “billionaire’s dinner” that ultimately cost columnist David Brooks his NY Times job? I had no idea that dinner had been at L’Opera, right here in Long Beach.

Sorry to carceral friends but the evil thing ICE is doing is mass deportation, and opposition to it must be rooted in respect for human rights including the human right to migrate

“Supporting the law” can’t be the foundation of a movement against targeting marginalized people as even lynchings were justified under the idea they were avenging lawbreaking and punishing lawbreakers.

shame is back on the menu boys

About fucking time

The guy who staged a failed coup last time is building a massive personal militia staffed with lawless thugs. At this point it’s just naïve not to see where this is going.

I can’t believe we’re still having these same conversations. I can’t believe we still have to wonder if you’re laughing at us and degrading us when we’re not in the room. I can’t believe we haven’t burned this fucking place down. 1/5

Like, check this out. Claiming immigrants are responsible for all fraud is good, great, even as long as it is in the script.

Considering Long Beach Unified School District has employed teachers who traffic, SA, and murder, yes murder students…I’m unsurprised

Long Beach appears in the emails of child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein nearly 1,000 times. @brandonrichardson.bsky.social went through it all, and found that while here, Epstein met lots of wealthy people and at least a few young women. Read more on the Watchdog. lbwatchdog.com/what-do-mons...

one of the things fox has consistently done throughout its existence is set up events where they pack the crowds with gop friendly "regular people" and then present it to viewers as just dropping in to a normal place and wow, look, everyone agrees with us www.mediaite.com/media/tv/it-...

I miss when The Onion published satire

I believe he was talking about his personal wealth.

This is why you do stunts. This is why you do stunts. This is why you do stunts.

Donald Trump killed two of my constituents. He is a liar and should be ashamed of himself.

democrats should internalize that this is what their colleagues think of them and act accordingly

This is a very very very obvious point to make but shops and movie rental places and record stores are all more fun than buying things online

Damn did @bardcollege.bsky.social not get enough money from the pedophile sex trafficker?

You can’t make me listen that man for two hours. Fuck you. Fucking fuck you. And I know it’s done so people get exhausted by the sheer amount of shit he says. Still. Fuck you.

What’s the fucking point of the mainstream media?

Brilliant. “I didn’t know who he was,” is an insufficient response. “I am doing serious self-examination as to why he invited me” is better.

It takes real effort to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory this many times

🎵🎶they know what they’re doing🎵🎶

If you shout “fuck-ass bitch” while Trump is speaking you’ll receive $1 billion in donations tomorrow and immediately become the 2028 frontrunner. It’s crucial you do not do this.
