Holy smokes the quotes here are deranged. He's pro-housing and pro-immigration but people on here are fantasizing about executing him because they can't read

We're accustomed to it but we should note how far we have drifted that this is an accepted statement from the Vice President.

Least surprising reveal ever. Also, stop making everything about Israel and Jews, man

"Voting for Harris would have made me complicit in genocide" - ok, if you say so. What did allowing Trump to win make you complicit in?

This is the same for the moderate Trump voters too, imo. You can make it clear that a mistake was made without being insulting or demeaning, but pretending there wasn't a mistake doesn't help everyone heal, it just perpetuates the mistake.

Anyone who thinks that there's any way to get people who make bad choices to change the next time that doesn't involve telling those people that it WAS a bad choice obviously has never worked with kids, or in management, or therapy, or had any other relevant life experience

As our tradition says, True repentance means recognizing that you sinned and, having the chance to repeat the sin, not doing so. (Mishneh Torah, T‘shuvah 2.1) That's what we ask of them. If they won't admit their failure, they're not ready and not welcome in the tent.

I understand why you think that, but I think that's probably wrong. Because in any of those eras, the markets were operating against a backdrop of rule of law and stability, not a mad king's whims and cronyism. Turns out that impacts consumer confidence too! And you're not measuring it

Who do they think is the audience for this? Also, love the pink text

"You need to drink this Kombucha or that guy over there will poison you" "But I don't like how Kombucha tastes" "OK, but is it better than poison?" "Doesn't matter, it hasn't earned my sip" *dies cursing the Kombucha*

The only remotely comparable dip was after the stock market's historic crash in 2008 What Trump and the Republicans have done to the economy has landed *worse* than the biggest global (purely*) financial crisis in decades *setting aside Covid

I read this right after I read about a 22 year old American citizen being held by ICE because they insist, despite her birth certificate, medical records, and immunization records, that she was not born in the USA. The "Harris needed to earn my vote and she didn't" crowd are as responsible.

Sorry, kids with cancer, and their families, you see Bernie chose the perfect over the good, again, and your child is shit out of luck.

My fantasy team was a disaster this year. Nobody healthy. Dead after 8 weeks, didn't make the playoffs. So of course I put up the most points in the league last week and have Kenneth Walker going nuts today

So it turns out (thanks, @vituperativeerb.bsky.social ) that the Federal rule on this is directly contrary to the NY rule with which I'm more familiar. NY says inconsistent verdicts can't stand. The feds are just, apparently, like "eh, juries. Whatcha gonna do"

I am happy to concede that there are plenty of people who like cities better. And (non-sarcastically!) good for them if they like like. It doesn’t make them special or endow their preferences with some magic moral weight. Likewise for people who prefer suburban or rural.

The US Administration has banned Americans from *adopting babies* from much of the African continent. Adopting. Babies. What trait do those babies have that, when they grow up as fully American adults, would make them a threat to our country in any form?

Zaitsev, a 36-yr-old Russian citizen w/a pending asylum case, said he was beaten by ICE agents...Photos in court filings show Zaitsev with bruises and scabs on his face. “We came to the US for protection because of what we encountered in Russia. It seems that we are encountering here what we fled.”

NB: When I, a professor of law, profess that an act is unlawful, I am not doing it to inform the lawbreaker, but rather to inform you, the reader. So the question “what, like you think he cares?” is inapposite. The question is whether *you* care. I think you should, which is why I bother.

Glad to see Nacua coming out with a "I had no idea this was antisemitic, that's fucked up" statement. Absent some other information about him to suggest he's lying - or him ever interacting with these dudes again - that's enough for me.

LOL no it's not. For the next 3 years, regime press releases will call it that. And then it will be gone

Holy shit. 14

Posted to Truth Social by @realdonaldtrump at 2:36 a.m.: Peeta Mellark was treated very unfairly by Nasty Katniss Everdeen, who has gone CRAZY. Katniss looks tough on TV, but we all know she's in a basement in Horrible District 13, which was never "HOT!" See you soon, Katniss!

"Most people in our country, which is a democracy, prefer cities, that's why our government prevents them"

I've lived in both dense, urban, walkable places and suburbia. I *vastly* prefer suburbia

Yes. Also, historically, Trump prevents Antifa from rigging his elections when he's out of power, but lets them (and Soros) rig elections when he's in power. I don't know why - masochism? - but it's helpful for Dems in 2028.

Oh holy fuck

The thing I love about this argument that Israel is responsible for people physically attacking Jews is that it presupposes the existence of a time period in which Jews weren't physically attacked for being Jews, which must be a lovely thing to imagine

People who are normally against collective guilt seem to forget those principles with one particular group for some reason.

The answer to this, by the way, is that it isn't about what Israel or Russia are doing at all. It's about antisemitism, and the lack (thankfully) of any comparable anti-Russian bigotry. Israel is an excuse for antisemitic violence. Not its cause

Antisemites gonna antisemite

The whole Puka Nacua situation is indicative of media toxicity in which young guys swim every day. Why is there a massively popular antisemitic Twitch streamer? Why does that exist?

Also amazing is how this line of thinking actually weaponizes democracy against Jews. No one would suggest that American (and ex pats) deserve to be gunned down in the streets because a slight majority elected Trump. But because Likud was able to form a government, Israelis and non-Israeli Jews do.

+1. Yes, I have experienced this kind of request. From a law professor. As if I were the ambassador from the state of Israel because I wear a kipa.

Shockingly normal experience for Jews

"I'm not antisemitic" "sorry, I need your picture to be jew-ier if you want me to think you're Jewish"

if SCOTUS hadn’t fucked it I remain firmly convinced that Smith would have nailed Trump to the wall with the J6 case everything that’s happened since is on their hands

oh, liz cheney? oh, kamala told protestors that she was speaking? the guy she was running against said haitians were eating people’s pets on live tv and tried to coup our government literally just four years ago. go fuck yourselves. genuinely

nothing will ever get me to care about or take the statement “kamala was not a good candidate” seriously after “they’re eating the dogs, they’re eating the cats.” literally not a single thing

There's no antisemite quite like a 75 year old Australian antisemite

I do

It changed everything. Not all of it for the better, but it changed everything. bsky.app/profile/sepi...

Lol, perfect

John Roberts has made his ruling, let him bust her out

We need to disbar people for this shit.

If SCOTUS somehow were to say "actually, the President can pardon state crimes" the appropriate response from the state would be "no, he cannot"

Sorry, I'm going to need a paper original before I can even consider releasing her

"actually targeting Jews worldwide is fine"
