Yes, it’s entirely true that many of the migrants who came under the Biden admin did not have housing arranged for them when they arrived and so ended up in homeless shelters at first, at times for months, while they got on their feet. This is 100% true, not an anti-immigrant gotcha, just the facts.

I strongly believe the unifying sentiment behind the entire woo-crank JFK jr wing of politics is hatred of fat people

How can so many people read this as "i hate immigrants" and not "we dont have enough housing, the large amount of immigrants coming into the US were most vulnerable to this fact"

Remember that even if American democracy survives, the people who tried to kill it will pay nothing. Merry Christmas!

Man I remember Malheur so well. Such a clear signal of what was to come. Some of the most privileged & entitled white men in the f'ing world engaging in open lawlessness in the name of their own imagined victimhood ... ... and getting away with it. That's the true American template.

it is terrifying and awful that this passed the House with any Dem support at all (and once again, the continued leadership support for Cuellar is unconscionable) call your senators and make absolutely sure this dies in the Senate, lives are on the line trans people deserve so much better

Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->

i am fascinated by how nate silver turns everything he doesn’t like into a bespoke ideology. it’s not that he is annoyed by HCR, it is that she is a dreaded “ism” responsible for everything he doesn’t like about the democratic party. same with bluesky.

Simon Bazelon has been built as a vessel to carry forward the aggregated ideology of Nate Silver, David Shor, Matt Yglesias, etc. Kind of a Kwisatz Haderach situation for popularists

"You don’t pay $235 million for the right to produce a sequel to a movie that cost $40 million because you think it’s going to generate 8 million new subscribers. You do it to chop a leg out of the theatrical ecosystem."

Democrats would be crazy not to make this comment super-famous tomorrow when the Senate debates health care. Republicans don’t want you to be cared for as a patient when you’re sick. They think of you as a “consumer”—and tough luck if you don’t have the money for the care you need.

Joe Rogan has fully lost it #OfficeHoursLive

Leaders of a Catholic church in Massachusetts kept a Nativity display with an anti-ICE message in place on Monday, defying an order from the Catholic Archdiocese of Boston to remove it. The display shows Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus missing, replaced by a sign reading “ICE WAS HERE.” trib.al/adPW46y

We got Weird Al out here singing Killing In The Name, the time for moderation is over

Key thing to remember is: They want these fascist fortress cities because *they believe existing nations are going to collapse* These are escape hatches for a post-democracy world they seek to create. I would argue that they have gotten much farther than they should have. See: DOGE, crypto, etc

Key point in here. Transgender people, cross-dressers and androgynous performers were often mocked or considered weird by much, if not most, of the population, but they *were* considered. They were *accepted* as weird. The zeitgeist now is to disappear them altogether; to pretend they don't exist.

The radicalization of Silicon Valley is the subject of my forthcoming book, "The Nerd Reich: Silicon Valley Fascism and The War on Democracy." It exposes a decades-long campaign to use tech power to overthrow democracy and destroy nations. Pre-order here: www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Ne...

They obsess over precise codified answers to "What a woman is" because they need that to deprive women of voting rights.

its also, crucially, made all of us worse. some of us by a lot, others by just a little. but a piece of all of us has rotted away by necessity of having to accept this in order to go on with our lives, or by refusing to accept it and bearing the strain of that

You fools, I simply wanted to fiddle with marginal tax rates, and now you see what I've become

I’ve had women treat me to dinner and then have sex with me. Skill issue.

Yes where else could men possibly receive this scorching insight

This is an ethnic cleansing campaign

The dogs on planes thing is a great example because it was being so widely abused that now airlines cracked down and now require you to document that it's a trained support dog, placing a burden on disabled people bsky.app/profile/flas...

it's a big club and I hope they all get hit by it

The only people who endlessly complain about color revolutions are dipshit leftie campists and Q-pilled right-wingers and the thing they have in common is they're both huffing Russian propaganda

This is why I think our path out of the nightmare starts with a straight up Cold War 2 with the Russians, where we acknowledge that they have been quietly indoctrinating us against American national and global interests. We need deRussification of the discourse.

Our rural communities have been left behind as the Statehouse gives away the very funding that could solve these problems in favor of tax breaks for the wealthiest. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/11/26/w...

a kind of funny thing about this thesis is that it's basically the same as the whole Ygelsias et al. 'moderate on cultural issues to win' thing with the serial numbers filed off. but for some reason this is based economic populism and not pathetic centrist selling out

Absolute debasement of academic standards *student submits opinion in psych class *gets bad grade *instructor says she can make whatever arguments she wants but must draw on empirical sources *student & Turning Point says her religious freedom & first amendment rights violated *professor suspended

conservatives basically want to implement the caricature of affirmative action for conservative students. acceptance without meeting qualifications, good grades and degrees without having to do the work.

RFK Jr. Denies Ever Laying Eggs In Olivia Nuzzi

These are not people who make this kind of statement lightly.

The NYT and the Washington Post are simply ignoring the rapidly growing constitutional crisis in the White House. Almost nothing in their news coverage or opinion sections. They are as culpable as anyone in this.

How many white GWOT vets airhole their family and then commit suicide by cop every week? Turns out our non-white imperial auxiliaries get PTSD too, but they don't get book deals and an Eastwood movie to make up for it

AMERICANS DO NOT WANT TO ETHNICALLY CLEANSE THE NONWHITE POPULATION. Only a tiny cabal of dedicated white supremacists led by Stephen Miller wants that. But Americans are being lied to by their cowed, billionaire-controlled media about what their government wants.

Trump, Vance, and Miller have inherited wealth and power they did not earn, achieved through advancement of values they do not share, at a cost they cannot comprehend. Like every other degenerate child of privilege they think their birthright is THE REWARD and not THE RESPONSIBILITY

Everyone in politics, everyone in media knows what’s happening here: the White House is controlled by a repellant white supremacist who waits with bated breath for any opportunity to run nonwhite people out of America. They know who it is, what he’s doing. But they won’t SAY it.

Can someone show the White House Press Corpse a montage of the reporters who covered previous administrations, the ones who weren't complete cowards?

I don't think $140k makes sense as a "poverty line," but worth noting such a family is likely paying a similar or higher total effective tax rate than most billionaires. American taxes are structured to make it hard to turn income into savings but easy to grow existing wealth into greater wealth.

Russians are literally writing US foreign policy, they have more power projection in DC than in Kyiv LMAO

The historic Georgia election interference case against President Trump and allies for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election is no more. n.pr/4ol3cED

The first official confirmation that Noem herself made the decision not to turn the planes around. A couple hundred men were tortured as a result — and soon after, the Supreme Court confirmed that the Trump admin’s Alien Enemies Act process was a total violation of due process.

God, I see what you've done for others and ...

More corruption. A real Congress would write Articles every day.

I’m so sorry Michael Shannon but you have to play John Brown
