Treat the US government and ICE claims like you'd treat a Russian government claim after they've shot down an airliner or bombed a hospital. America 2026.

A competent opposition political party would cut together the footage of what ICE had been doing in the twin cities with Mike Johnson saying "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do" and have it in ads all across the country

The Kinsley gaffe to end all Kinsley gaffes

just two cool guys looking normal and alive, like humans

turns out the emails we should have been reading in 2016 were from the NYT

Cowards die many times before their deaths, The valiant never taste of death but once.

I hope AOC announces against Schumer tomorrow

These guys are constantly saying that Dems need to abandon identity politics and run on kitchen-table issues. They get the most kitchen table-ass candidate imaginable, spend months saying he's secretly radical, then as soon as he wins they say he's secretly moderate.

Call me radical, but I think we *don't* need to have polite chats with racists who are spewing conspiracy theories that keep motivating white supremacists to massacre our fellow citizens, and we *don't* need to have bipartisan deals with fascists trying to destroy our democracy and our government.

JD Vance is doing the Reichstag Fire the right way. by Ezra Klein

the groypers sure seem to think Charlie Kirk was killed by a groyper

David Brooks wants you to know that while he is unhappy with how the administration is ending democracy he’s quite impressed with the viv and vigor it displays while doing so

While fascism was planning to take over the country, you promoted the idea that the biggest threat to democracy was what a bunch of college students called a sandwich. Yes, you should apologize. And for the rest of your life.

Art.

No. I'm sorry, I know we need a big tent or a popular front or whatever you want to call it, but jimmy concepts doesn't get to be a part of it. If he's genuinely recognized the error of his ways, he can atone by shutting the fuck up forever

It's Window Safety Week

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

2024: Vote Trump he will cut your taxes and lower prices and make us all rich 2025: When you really think about it is money even real?

Interesting how people in favor of saving the economy are now opposed to destroying the economy

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

no matter what the circumstances, democrats are always saving their energy for a mythical future situation where they will do something good

The paper that broke Watergate is too chickenshit to endorse a presidential candidate? How times have changed.

the most dangerous place in the world is standing in between an NYT editor and an active verb with a clear object

And the roots of the (old, original, now dead) Republican Party; The Wide Awakes: The 1860 Election Was Influenced By Young People Advocating Against Slavery www.teenvogue.com/story/the-wi...

If you're upset by art not being damaged in protest against climate change, I can only imagine how furious you'll be at the actual damage to art caused by climate change.

I like that quote, everyone thought he was this generations Henry Ford, when it turns out he was this generations Henry Ford

Trump when asked about replacing Obamacare

Just like the magical algorithm claims, the idea that a machine trained on your posts, emails, and texts could *know* you enough to essentially become a digital copy of you is bizarre thinking. Tech bros really think people have no inner life—that there’s nothing beyond what you click and type.

conservatives like school shootings, in pretty much the same way they like crime. a terrified and unsafe population makes people more distrustful and reactionary, and they have the fun bonus of helping to destroy the public education system.

Wild for the NYT to decide that in the absence of any actual stated housing policy they'd just invent one for him and settle on lebensraum as their best guess.

Did you notice that suddenly the headlines look exactly the way old movies thought 2024 headlines would look

Go ahead, keep calling me a sexist. But you’re going to look real silly when in response to that slur I donate a bunch of money to a rapist.

The attacks you’re seeing on the Harris and Walz families from the online right are reflective of a different ideological orientation towards family as mere objects that are meant to reflect the greatness of the husband and father, not people with their own lives and emotions.

Mainstream media fact checkers decided that, faced with wildly asymmetric volume and degree of lying, the fact-checker’s job is to force balance—eg by equating nitpicks with whoppers—thereby not being “biased.” Loses credibility with people who value truth, gains them no credibility with the liars.

If Elon Musk wasn't the world's richest person and didn't own car and space companies, the headlines today would be that Trump is being interviewed by a white supremacist.

A friend's elderly Fox News-brainwashed mom was doing one of the manglings of Kamala's name they do and my friend told her, "You should probably practice saying her name correctly so your doctors don't think you have dementia when you can't pronounce the president's name."

What's that joke/post about libertarians being like cats, since they live in and benefit from a society that they cannot possibly understand, even if they wanted to, which they definitely do not...

remains incredibly striking to me that most of the entire cadre of “democrats must reach out to rural americans” and “democrats must speak to blue collar americans” pundits are sour on the Walz pick

The Oldest Known Recording of the Human Voice

the weirdest thing about terfs to me is that they seem to think cis men need to pretend they're not men in order to abuse women

she has both a mother AND a father?!?!?! which is it kamala

I think about this line a lot these days.

That's one way to disarm the police

I don't think you can have an honest conversation about the "partisan divide" unless you're honest about the fact that one of just two major parties is waging a fascist assault on democracy, the rule of law, and truth itself
