ICE are thug scum.

World’s most prolific arsonist concerned about fire damage

This is the gentleman who directed the National Security Council on China under Biden ⬇️

Democrats have now flipped Miami mayor (first time a Democrat has won it since 1998) and a Trump +12 Georgia state House district Democrats have outperformed Harris’ 2024 margin by double digits in 4/4 races so far tonight, with an avg. overperformance of 17.5 points Buckle up.

🧵 The way they are doing immigration enforcement is both incredibly cruel and incredibly wasteful. There was just no point to how the government handled this case. Nothing to be gained. It's just the Miller directive to engage in as much gratuitous assholery as possible.

This spineless blob of a man officially has like 9 jobs in this administration and this is what he spends his time on. Hope it was worth it to sell your soul so you could finish 5th in the 2028 Iowa Caucuses, Marco.

Impossible to put into words how petty, stupid and counterproductive this is.

The fascist ethos is "believe what feels best." It promises a world where you can feel the catharsis of triumph and of grievance all at once, forever. It tells you to ignore contradictions and avoid the critical thinking that reveals them. Generative AI is the perfect technology for this ethos.

" I have many questions about whose idea it was to import the confinement box to Alligator Alcatraz. But... I submit to you that its appearance here, structurally speaking, is the result of there being no criminal or even substantial political penalties for the architects of the torture program...:

I wholeheartedly agree with this.

Marjorie Taylor Greene told me to go back to my country and kicked our then-18-year-old communications director. And then sent an army of trolls and death threats my way when I called her out. She doesn’t get to play victim now.

I can’t help but notice that a bunch of people think “actual thinking” means “insipid contrarianism that substitutes banal edgelordery for any meaning or principle.”

it's interesting how little the gop messaging apparatus, from the press secretary to election mailers, deviates from "i know you are but what am i"

Today is the 10th anniversary of one of the stupidest tweets ever written

NEW — I put together a list of independent journalism subscriptions that would make great holiday gifts. From music to politics, astronomy to alcohol, tech to social justice, there’s something for [almost] everyone. Support indie media *and* surprise and delight your loved ones! My guide:

JFC. ‘Men have brains like waffles while women have brains like spaghetti’ is what passes for intellectual conversation in the MAGAverse.

This from the party of freedom and limited government.

This from the people who have spent the last 20 years braying about “participation trophies.”

Kavanaugh stop.

It happened again: The Trump administration has admitted illegally deporting a man to Guatemala despite an immigration judge's order that he was likely to be tortured there. A judge has ordered the administration to facilitate his return by next week.storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The MAGAverse is completely untethered to reality.

More of this, please. Call people like Cotton out to their face for their bullshit. They have forfeited the presumption of good faith long ago and are in no way entitled to be treated with deference and respect when they spew propaganda and lies.

Paul Duginski really nailed it with this political cartoon. Follow the money, it always leads you to the corruption.

WTF did these young people think he was going to do if given power again? It's not like it was a mystery.

Sadistic fucks.

As Justice Kagan begins her dissent by pointing out, what is even the point of trial, of fact-finding, of clear error, of standards of review, when the Supreme Court simply ignores every single part of that and decides everything purely on the papers without any real consideration of the facts?

The right is no longer conservative in any sense of the word. They seek to conserve nothing. Their only remaining impulse is a desire to dominate and destroy. Every word of this from @tomgpalmer.bsky.social. 👇

::taps the sign::

“Lawmakers sharply divided”. So sick of these headlines that treat opposing views as equally valid in the name of balance when one is clearly nonsensical. Geography experts and the Flat Earth Society are sharply divided about our planet’s shape.

Doubt there is anything that Trump/Hegseth could do that Cotton wouldn’t attempt to defend with some cartoonishly awful justification. If Hegseth issued an order to chop off the limbs off innocent civilians, Cotton would praise it as helping them to meet their weight loss goals more quickly.

War crimes on request to feed the bloodthirsty MAGA mob.

It's time to end DEI and bring back the meritocracy.

They feel they are entitled to label entire nationalities of people “garbage” but saying mean things about a certain dead submediocre MAGA influencer should get you fired from your job.

Today in 'headlines that feel like they should be by The Onion but are in fact horrifically real'

An entire room full of powerful old white people smiling and laughing as the president dehumanizes black immigrants and the first black president. Just fucking pathetic.

Melania and Barron Trump have dual citizenship (US and Slovenia). Elon Musk has citizenship in the US, South Africa, and Canada.

Unless proven otherwise, every Republican in Congress supports this image:

I don’t know there has ever been anyone in human history less qualified or suitable for their job than Pete Hegseth.

“The border is secure.” JFC. What border does this clueless dipshit think Portland, Chicago and Charlotte sit on? There are few people outside the Trump administration who are as deserving of being fired from their job as this guy.

This is the most consequential story for the 2026 midterms. Yet, I cannot find it anywhere on legacy media. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Ken consistently comes up with some of the best content around here but “Brooks Brothers pocket square used to wipe Nick Fuentes’ ass” is truly first ballot Hall of Fame stuff.

Rich Lowry is a bigoted piece of shit whose existence makes America a worse place. He's vapid patrician gentility used to mask gutter racism. He's a Brooks Brothers pocket square used to wipe Nick Fuentes' ass.

It’s almost like putting a uniquely toxic, adolescent, sociopathic ignoramus in charge of the world’s most powerful military was a bad idea.

MAGA is nothing if not completely incoherent. “I am voting for Trump because he will lower prices, but I will also side with him against companies that are trying to lower prices.” Do these people ever pause to consider what complete dipshits they sound like?

MAGA logic and their inability to accept reality:

According to the US Coast Guard, the year prior to Trump changing our policy to summary execution, only 21% of the vessels interdicted by them off the coast of Venezuela suspected of trafficking drugs had drugs on board. The other 79% had nothing. But now we just kill them all.

I'm really fascinated by the way this administration seems to think "kinetic strike" is a sort of magical phrase as opposed to being to being ridiculous military jargon. Hegseth uses it a lot the way a teenager will use some new word they think makes them sound sophisticated.
