They really think about raping their daughters a lot, huh...

AP Exclusive: Hamlet Performed at High School, Eight Students Feared Dead

I'm not saying that they don't have anxieties about this stuff, but that still doesn't explain why they've latched onto a stupid cartoon villain as their great white hope. I think, as Bouie says, they are the Reagan generation and the media the consume has always been conservative.

This chart is a data visualization crime! First cohort: 4 years Second cohort: 6 years Third cohort: 4 years Fourth cohort: 11 years Fifth cohort: 19 years This is gerrymandering data

Trump has cut legal immigration more than illegal immigration, as I predicted. While illegal entries have fallen, they continued a prior trend, falling more before he came back. Meanwhile, Trump has drastically cut legal entries, reversing the prior upward trend. www.cato.org/blog/trump-h...

what if we just like, made unemployment suck less instead of doing infinite protectionism for every job that has ever existed has anybody thought of this before?

You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

Joe the plumber was a bullshit prop, too, but this is way more egregious. It's incredible how badly the press gets rolled by this stuff.

I'm in favor of 1 million counts of murder.

My brother's book comes out tomorrow. Here's an excerpt. Wild stuff.

This whole thing was a setup for TV and that any news organization takes this even remotely at face value is going to turn me into the Joker.

“Two can play at that game” is literally the Drebin quote here when he takes an innocent woman hostage to cluelessly fight the enemy

Chatting with a Republican during lunch, she goes “both parties are the same, though I don’t want to make you angry”. I replied: “I don’t want to make you angry but the GOP is the most corrupt party I’ve ever known, and that includes the time I lived in Mexico.” She changed the subject.

Menendez had to go because of corruption. Swalwell has to go because of sexual abuse. Biden had to drop out because he was mentally slipping. Trump, worse on all three counts, enjoys not just criminal immunity but a pass from the media on all three.

Clearing out my screenshots. I forgot polimath sent this one out.

not only is this exciting — the lt. governor’s office should, uh, contact me — but it is a not so subtle way to claim some of virginia’s most potent historical symbols — its universities and the affiliated figures, like madison and jefferson and george mason — for the libs

It is wild that Trump could be flailing wildly, shitting his pants, tripping over his own dick, and still roll the press this easily lol.

This is one of those AI age filters, right? Like this is the same person on each screen.

There's no way these pictures aren't from 2005.

Okay but lmao.

Took then long enough...

The limited backlash got to him and all will be forgiven.

Imagine getting 11 seasons into the Simpsons and being surprised when Bart misbehaves at school in an episode.

Hasn't Trump posted some version of that meme before?

I am actually surprised by this lol

We live in the world from the first Robocop movie, which is also in the idiocracy universe.

evergreen

"No president has shown greater dedication to defending our first liberty" is a statement negated by the entirety of the first paragraph.

If Trump were tough on crime, he'd have hanged himself by now.

Right before the markets open for the week. Like clockwork.

I do think it’s very silly and regrettable to lose NATO because Republicans are indulging themselves in a weird fad.

F-ing depraved. The IDF edited a photo of the journalist they assassinated and made it look like he was wearing a Hezbollah uniform. They explicitly state that it is legal in Israel to murder journalists. The entire Israeli state is a criminal enterprise.

It's not a counterpunch, guys. The pope didn't throw a punch. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/12/u...

In some ways, the conservative consolidation of the press is even more insidious than we saw in Hungary. At least the pretense was gone there.

the right has no agency, example no. 22,503

I will say this: the devout catholics I know who voted for trump absolutely do not give a shit a out this stuff.

I just know "the pope is weak on crime" made the pope laugh in a way that he's never laughed before.

They'll vote 70/30 R in November.

this is exactly why I get so annoyed by people who say “oh I live in a blue state, it doesn’t matter who I vote for so I’ll protest vote for the Green Party” when you’re up against fascists, you need as big of a margin as possible

I'm not actually all too familiar with Hungary's government, but is the country beset by geographic polarization that entrenches federal and local power in a minority as well? This is a genuine question.

Magyar: “No mercy, they will need to take responsibility for all their actions.”

I'm ashamed of how turned on I am.

Now, if they hang Orban, liberalism might have a future in the 21st century.

People think this is president-ing

>JD Vance was unable to negotiate a comprehensive diplomatic agreement with Iran in like 12 hours No. No...this can't be right. I can't believe it.

The fact that Tucker Carlson is defending Lebanon against Israel on the grounds that it is a “Christian-led country” really gives the game away on what is going on here.

He's going to be lazy as shit if he even wins, and I don't think he will.

Huh. So things went south right around the time that Donald Trump entered mainstream politics.

It's actually crazy how the biggest security issue for westen states in the 21st century is their reliance on oil and how much resistance there is to addressing that in a meaningful way.
