Is it normal in the US to use "National Socialist" instead of Nazi?

I don't understand why nobody ask : Would you like to run against Obama?

Chek the news tomorrow.

goddamn is there anything Wikipedia editors can’t do www.nytimes.com/2025/10/17/n...

The war zone in Portland is out of control.

In 2010, a scientist argued that 2.1 billion-year-old African specimens showed complex life appearing 500 million years ahead of schedule. His critics say they are — literally — fool's gold. At stake? The question of when and how complex life arose at all. My cover story (!) for @sciam.bsky.social!

No, the fascists left of their own accord after the bulk of the Dems and lib Republicans passed civil rights legislation. Yes, there were liberal Republicans then. They got run out of the party over the next 10-20 years.

The fascist playbook. In 1963, Wallace was a Democrat, a Southern Democrat. The Great Realignment into Sane People and Fascists was just starting.

All good things come to an end.

The most interesting about Trump springing George Santos from prison is that Trump is still in the Epstein Files.

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."

They still exist?

Maybe Matisse is onto something here.

It's really sad how people struggling to free or defend their countries, like Zelensky and this woman, have to repeatedly debase themselves in front of this man because there is no longer any responsible leader of the Free World.

They didn’t just NOT give Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, they wrote a citation that reads like an anti-Trump rallying cry. (He’s gonna extra-tariff Norway now, isn’t he?)

They want ICE to operate here.

👀

Other states need to begin intentional punishment of the hostile Texas government, including cancelling state government contracts with Texas companies and interfering with their commerce such as by imposing onerous Texas-company-specific certifications and licensing.

I think this is right: "We've slid into some form of authoritarianism," says Steven Levitsky, a professor of government at Harvard. "It is relatively mild compared to some others. It is certainly reversible, but we are no longer living in a liberal democracy." www.npr.org/2025/04/22/n...

I don't know exactly why, but seafood taste a lot better when harvested in the coldest water possible. I've actually never ate better seafood anywhere in the world than Canada. It's also why shrimps in April are better than shrimps in October.

The "big ego" was well hidden on this video.

Violent thugs are terrorizing Americans and they were sent by the White House.

If you like yelling about misuse of the passive voice, THIS IS IT.

This dude thinks people care about his subscriptions.

He saw it, heard every world of it.

hey @nytimes.com: there is no counterpoint here. There are no credible legal experts who would EVER say that the US military has any right or authority to blow civilian craft out of the Caribbean and kill their crews from afar without any provocation. There is no other side to this question.

If they can do it under far worse conditions than we have here, so can you. apnews.com/article/mold...  Moldova’s pro-EU party wins clear parliamentary majority, defeating pro-Russian groups

No, their country is split with Russian forces occupying part of their country. Please don't be so insistent on doomer drama that you end up saying really dumb stuff about how much easier it is to vote in Moldova than here.

Fuck they are slow.

While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

No, *authoritarianism* exists on a continuum, on which "fascism" is one of the most extreme endpoints.

A pattern is developing where everyone who fights back against a Trump attack inevitably wins with their reputation much better than before, and everyone who caves to him looks like shit and has Trump coming back for more a month later.

1. Judges have stopped him, repeatedly. 2. We are one election away from breaking that control (which right now only rests with a handful of seats in the House) 3. His runway is a lot shorter and he's a lot weaker than you think, which is why you should stop mythologizing him.

They're about to shut down the government to protect the Epstein Files from disclosure. Whatever is in the files must be so unhinged as to be beyond imagination.

Now?

Incompetent is not the first word that comes to mind.

Breaking News: Gov. Gavin Newsom signed legislation that prohibits federal immigration agents from wearing masks in California.

Where's Andrew Coyne when we don't need him?

I just checked and this is actually written in the Constitution. Oddly, it's written in Sharpie.

This judge is Reviewer 2 and I’m here for it.

Swalwell: There’s going to be a Democratic majority in just over a year. To the FCC chairperson and anyone in involved in these dirty deals: get a lawyer and save your records because you’re going to be in this room answering questions

CNN has made the editorial decision to keep playing this clip on air for guests making sure they get the full context of what Kimmel said. Good.

This.

Name one that is fighting back right now.

The hardest is noticing the only real push back comes from some judges. But for how long?

Donald Trump: “smart people don’t like me”

"You are being musically mean to me and it's hurting my feelings so I am going to call the police department that we are supposed to be supporting to report a feels violation."

A man in Washington, DC, plays the Imperial March from Star Wars while following patrolling soldiers. One of the soldiers threatens to call the police.

"I just want to say, go birds, fuck ICE and free Palestine," "Hacks" star Hannah Einbinder at the #Emmys
