This is a boringly accurate, purely factual description of events. And again, this is simply not receiving the same breathless BIDEN FAILED IN AFGHANISTAN type of coverage, even though this is orders of magnitude worse on every dimension. The two parties simply are not held to the same standards.

A lot of people are still in the denial about how much the median Democratic voter, the median Democratic volunteer, and the median Democratic activist has shifted on a variety of issues. Well here's the handpicked candidate of Chuck Schumer being booed, about Gaza, at the Dem convention.

I feel like conservatives thought the anger / reckoning after George Floyd’s murder was some sort of power move, because that’s the only way they know how to think about life. So they wanted their own power-move in return.

The other thing no one talks about when men kill their wives is that they dont only kill their wives. They do whatever they can to destroy them. I mean physically and mentally. Most of the women cannot have viewings because of how their husbands ended their lives. Their trauma is usually too severe

Data centres uses 32% of Ireland's total electricity supply but pay almost less than half of the residential rate. So we're effectively subsidizing tech giants during a cost of living & energy crisis. Meanwhile this Govt continues to cheerlead their expansion & continue to fail in their obligations.
