FROM MY COLD, DEAD HANDS

There is nothing GOP voters want more than to protect rapists.

I have several follow-up questions which are also What The Fuck

i guess my main question would be, what the fuck

Would a claim that her democratic primary opponent should be tried for treason change your mind about her fitness for office? www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...

one of my favorite facts about the US coal industry is that it employs less people than Broadway

Sorry wait what do you mean JD Vance's childhood bully is posting TikToks about how full of shit the admin and right wing grifters are and Vance TEXTED THE GUY WHO HE HASN'T SPOKEN TO IN YEARS TO TELL HIM TO KNOCK IT OFF AND THREATENED TO C&D HIM That is My god even for that CHUD that's PATHETIC

I'm seeing people reacting in shock to this woman working (reportedly) in mental health, and I want to emphasize as someone who was abused by two parents who work in psychology and social work that those professions are FULL of people who absolutely should not be in them for related reasons

Jeeves would never have done this to us.

Trump is shooting people on 5th Avenue and daring anyone to stop him.

There is nothing GOP voters want more than to protect rapists.

Muslims are our neighbors. They belong here. They are us. I grieve for the Muslim community, for the families of the dead, for those who had to witness evil hands shed innocent blood, and for the blameless victims of hatred who had their lives stolen. May they be granted the highest peace.

I didn’t know it was possible to be even angrier than I was before.

On one coast my countrymen are murdered for practicing their religion, and on the other, the worst representatives of another religion gather to assert that those departed souls were never really ours anyway. That our country was never for them. And is sponsored by the government.

None of this is about me. But I feel as though my heart has cracked open and I cannot breathe.

I’ve been spelunking in the sewer again. Reading through the comments of people who gloat and cheer when their fellow humans are gunned down in cold blood in what ought to be a place of refuge and sanctuary for the crime of existing.

“not to point fingers but-“

my gf works corporate and is on a training about AI and there's a word cloud for "what do you use AI for." the largest word by far is "Nothing" and the trainer is PISSED

why would anyone ever pay taxes again if they're immune from audits?

(sticks the landing) The Aristocrats!

what do you call it when the president steals an unfathomable amount of wealth from the treasury and then declares it illegal to investigate him

There was an ag poll the other day from rurals that something like 20% of farmers are considering "voting for a different party" - which in the rurals means "voting for democrats" and another ~20% are considering staying home. Might be a problem for the GOP!

I'm sorry, what? In writing my first monograph, I spent six weeks trying to track down a citation in TWO languages I didn't know. And good thing too, because the citation was wrong. That's scholarship. That's research. You know, the thing we're trained to do?!?

BREAKING: Senate advances resolution to limit Trump's Iran war powers for first time, after four Republicans defect.

FROM MY COLD, DEAD HANDS

However appalled you are by this, it’s not enough. It’s a frank statement that Trump and Trumpists are above the law and need not even plausible excuses to loot your tax dollars. It’s a total failure of our civic institutions.

I simply do not think this woman should hold elected office

may all the shitheads lose their elections tonight

Strong evidence that the shooters at the mosque in San Diego yesterday held both Islamophobic and antisemitic beliefs. Our safety is bound up together, no matter how much politicians may try to divide us.

It’s cool how the worst people on the planet can’t decide if this hate crime was I. Based, because killing Muslims is good, or II. Bad, and did you know the shooters were definitely A. Trans, or B. Jewish

their manifesto is out, the shooters were two men, they were accelerationists and yet you’re gonna see this lie spread:

The man who bankrupted a casino has now also managed to produce the first football world cup nobody wants to attend, there has never been anyone else who ever possessed this level of ability at failing

Just imagine the level of criminality that compels a President who was already personally granted full immunity by Supreme Court for anything related to 'official acts' to think that's not enough, he must *also* have his DOJ release all civil claims against him, two of his kids, and his company.

Trump institutes UBI for insurrectionists

Everyone in the DOJ/IRS involved with the "settlement" should end up behind bars.

i don't think this slush fund settlement can possibly be an official act by Trump because it's a settlement with him. if it's an official act he's both parties to the settlement

Two different people have died while jailed at Rikers Island in the last two days. A spokesperson for @mayor.nyc.gov confirmed these posts are about different deaths:

If you read the shitty NYT article about the woman forced to give birth in court, read this too. It’s not a story about the wonderful court officers. It’s a story about an evil system, an evil DA, and an evil judge.

There isn't even a pretext of legitimacy here. This is supposedly to compensate Trump for not taking measures to prevent his tax return from leaking. Stopping audits on him and his businesses is not a legitimate remedy!

This is a break-glass emergency. It's bad enough they gave two billion of our tax dollars to pay off insurrectionists and white supremacist pedophiles, but now they're also exempting Trump from audits as part of the fake settlement.

When someone attacks a synagogue, a certain segment of people go searching for something that synagogue has said or done in support of Israel, to prove why the attack is actually justified. This article is the Islamophobic equivalent, and it's equally horrific and racist. nypost.com/2026/05/18/u...

The paragraph defining "Lawfare" as the "sustained use of the levers of government power by Democrat elected officials" in an agreement describing a settlement of Trump with himself so he can give his allies $1.8 billion is rich enough to make my eyes bleed

Security guard Amin Abdullah warned the teachers at the San Diego mosque's school to lock the classroom doors. There were 200 children inside at the time, Imam Taha Hassane said. “By doing this, he saved so many, many, many souls,” he said. https://wapo.st/4dAEAEo

I know it's quaint to believe such things matter, but under 26 USC 7217 it's a crime for POTUS "to request, directly or indirectly, any [IRS] officer . . . to conduct or terminate an audit or other investigation of any particular taxpayer." www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

there's only one conclusion you can draw from the fact that Loomer's presence in the white house isn't covered as a daily front page scandal by the political media and is instead covered up and downplayed

This is very funny, but does anyone know what crime was actually committed here?

Cybertruck owner believes advertising, drives into lake (!), is arrested? and they say the perfect news story doesn’t exist

It’s cool how the worst people on the planet can’t decide if this hate crime was I. Based, because killing Muslims is good, or II. Bad, and did you know the shooters were definitely A. Trans, or B. Jewish
