During the Japanese Internment, their property was confiscated by the government and/or sold for as little as 10% of their value to locals. I just wonder what happens to immigrants' homes and other property when they're send to a camp and deported?

This Anti-Trans crap is infuriating. And this is 100% because of REPUBLICANS. So if you want to fight this crap, make sure you vote for Democrats, and make sure you aren't out there cutting Democrats off at the knees and helping Republicans win with petty purity shit. The consequences are REAL.

This is about fear, not fraud. The GOP's poll numbers are tanking, their agenda is unpopular. Their response? Nationwide voter suppression bills to stop Americans from voting them out. CALL NOW: #StopTheSaveAct social.demcast.com/s/TVGQSTB1

I know that you’re asking rhetorically, so I’m just going to repost you!

Ghislaine Maxwell’s offer to exonerate Donald Trump in exchange for clemency hit me hard. Here’s a detailed timeline of the corrupt and dishonest maneuvering behind the scenes at DOJ that got us here. youtu.be/6i-tG_ZJey8

I spent the morning at the DOJ looking at the unredacted Epstein files. Here are my initial thoughts and what I’ve found, so far.

Kid Rock to join Harvard’s Institute of Politics

Somehow, in the attention to Howard Lutnick's lies about Epstein and his general toadying, attention has drifted away from his buying a house in DC for $25 million. In cash. From ... Brett Baier of Trump state media, aka Fox. (We walk past its gates frequently) washingtonian.com/2024/12/20/b...

Both these options sound objectively amazing, why do racists keep assuming everyone's racist?

The conversations where Ben Shapiro browbeats Gavin Newsom and he sheepishly concedes he doesn’t really believe in the things he says are an example of the conversations they have with the “liberals they know,”

Cannot emphasize enough how central the belief that there is always *some* outgroup their interlocutor holds an intrinsic disdain for is to their idea of persuasion.

So, depending on their assumptions about your background, it’ll be “well, aren’t you tired of…” trans people, immigrants, snooty college people, Jewish people, the “lazy ones”, etc etc until they hit a flash card you respond to...

Crossing streams here, the prominence of the ADOS people online is part of the reason conservatives thought the argument that African immigrants stealing positions from Black Americans would blunt the outcry from their move to end affirmative action.

But yeah part of the shortsightedness of Newsom’s turn towards podcasting is there’s a growing library of clips where he’s talking precisely the way Black people assume insincere white people talk in private.

This is a big deal: Hours after ICE agent Charles Exum shot a Chicago woman five times, Greg Bovino offered to extended the agent's scheduled retirement as a reward for his "excellent service in Chicago." Incredible.

Note that he says "He doesn't know I'm a fascist" not "I'm not a fascist."

You want Israel to be destroyed. What happens to the Israeli citizens in your fantasy of destroying a country just because it's a majority Jewish democracy?

MAGA-World is pissed that Tim Scott forgot his place"? He's only to speak when he's told.😂😂😂😂

I'm tired of people hiding their antisemitism by pretending that wanting Israel destroyed isn't antisemitism.

You're openly antizionist which means you don't think Israel should exist. That's antisemitic. You don't claim any other country shouldn't exist, just the one majority-Jewish democracy. Fohwybs.

Just so we are clear you listed things dems should be doing. One of which is blocking the save act. But concede that dems cannot block the save act without republicans voting with them. Seems to me you should be demanding republicans do it and not on dems for not doing something they can’t. 🤷‍♀️

DEI just means, “someone who isn’t white got this job” doesn’t it?

+1 "DUI hire" is reserved for government appointees. XD (Hegseth beìn' the original)

Nothing against Kid Rock, but it seems like there's a little bit of a #MAGAhire there going on. A #MAGAhire is when you hire the less qualified guy because he's white and loves Trump.

Jazz OTD: Anyone who follows my feed knows that I love George Cables's work, and "In Good Company" - recorded February 10, 2015 - is a characteristically excellent piano trio session: by turns lyrical and propulsive, brilliantly played by Cables with Essiet Essiet (b) and Victor Lewis (d). #jazzsky

For the people who vote in NY-12, Speaker Emerita Pelosi has endorsed Jack Schlossberg. She supported Joe Kennedy when he ran against Markey a few years ago so it makes sense for her. Rep. Nadler has endorsed State Rep Micah Lasher who used to be his aide.

I think it is now inarguable that the king is quite mad.

Republicans keep trying to block a vote on Trump’s tariffs. If they think these price-hiking taxes are such a good idea, then let’s have a vote – but enough hiding.

It’s ironic that there are now reports of Epstein trying to pass on info about DJT to Russian intelligence. Obviously didn’t know that the KGB knew ALL they needed about him already. #TrumpEpsteinFiles

I can and likely will enumerate all the awful lies of this campaign but the audacity of them doing this while bankrolling and protecting the Epstein Class class is wild.

Textbook. If you are surprised, it is because this shit usually, at least not in the last 150 years, does not happen in the US. And the past is mild in comparison

Howard Lutnick REMAINED friends with Jeffrey Epstein AFTER Epstein had his first conviction for bring a pedophile. Lutnick should resign. Pass it on.

The dance of the logistics is often as good as the main event.

This is sickening. For comparison, this is more than the Department of Energy spent for all solar power and wind power R&D for the whole country.

Maybe Oyster Boy can go save him

An underrated good the next Democratic administration could do with virtually zero actual political blowback from voters would be to come in with anti-trust laws like a wrecking ball and break up media and tech companies. It would fuck up The Other Side, too.

Playing politics with disaster relief funding is a new low, even for the Trump Administration. Let’s call it for what it really is: a politically motivated decision that punishes thousands of Illinois families in a critical moment of need.

Stay calm. And the music plays on.

For those who've forgotten, a PANICAN is a new party based on Weak and Stupid people!
