From the top rope

Nice analysis.

📽️ WATCH: We reviewed 700+ videos, hours of footage from ICE protesters and counterprotesters in Portland. Trump justified the deployment of National Guard troops by calling the city "War ravaged," with an ICE office under siege. That's not what we found. 🔗 Full story: https://propub.li/43fRCmF

Well done diagram of the absolute cluster of looney ass shit birds who are legends in their own minds with far too much money.

I’m pretty sure he really doesn’t follow the news.

It was captivating. Truly. He just flowed.

For your viewing pleasure

Traditional American politics is premised on the notion that sometimes you lose and sometimes you win and you have to deal with that. But Trumpism is premised on the notion that any result where you don’t win is illegitimate, unlawful, fraud, criminal. You can’t negotiate with people like that.

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

LFG

this is objectively hilarious

One last time: Every time I post it he goes up five more points.

lol. Hell yes we do. And we’ll pay 6$ a gallon for it.

Virginia Republicans leaned hard into anti-trans propaganda as part of their main messaging in the final months of this campaign. It fell completely flat with voters. It did not resonate. Virginia Republicans came across as bizarre and detached from working class families.

Are we not tech? We are devo.

Zohran Mamdani campaigned in a gay club yesterday at 1 am. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Cruel heartless assholes.

i can't claim to know Kat as well as I'd like but there's never been a shred of doubt in my mind that she believes what she says and is willing to put her body on the line for that belief. I admire her.

Evil fucks.

I have always loooved David Byrne. Wasn’t sure how I could love him more. lol. This.

JD bullshitter. Just vomiting more.

If YOU haven't seen John Oliver's SCATHING take on Medicare Advantage, you MUST watch.🤯 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ejoi...

1. Before the No Kings demonstrations two weekends ago, I suggested that the shutdown of the government would look different afterward.

A 1.1B sar report isn’t suspicious. It’s an admission of guilt.

Universal Basic Income became a right the moment private ownership was added to the social contract. UBI is the opposite side of that coin. If we are to accept society's rule that we shouldn't take other people's stuff even if we need it, then society must guarantee we have access to what we need.

The real terminator is this shitty AI beloved by shitbirds like Marc. Not just jobs but people in all kinds of weird ways as it hallucinates and tells people to do stupid things. But hey they are going to definitely maximize shareholder value.

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

Proof that the U.S. government social media accounts are in fact white nationalist propaganda accounts, funded by our tax dollars. You’ve got to see this…

Yes

Anyone can make a difference. Anywhere, anytime.

In the absence of a pro-minority-rights government, the actions of pro-minority-rights individuals become extremely important. That goes for sexual as well as racial/ethnic minorities.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.

He’s such a stellar example of WWJD. Well I guess Jesus would lie his fucking ass off at every possible moment.

The whole of a16z are just psychopaths untethered from reality.
