many such cases

had an okcupid date drive his moped all the way up US 31 from columbus just to fuck

Reform + retrain = collaboration. The Dems want to collaborate with the white power party because they share organizing principles (capital).

The IDF is suddenly accepting the Gaza Health Ministry’s numbers because they know as well as everyone else now that it’s a massive undercount.

why would you ever watch this when there’s already a banger series/episode about this with Paul Giamatti as John Adams, Tom Wilkinson as Ben Franklin and Stannis Baratheon as Thomas Jefferson??

lol ofc darren aronofsky is into AI

Actually really funny that Obama spoke up yesterday just to share an Ezra Klein podcast lol

netflix's next special should be zack greinke and alex honnold alternatingly answer questions from the media. would do numbers

She says hello

No less than two grassroots mass movements started under Obama, Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter, yet liberals insist that Obama’s worst offense is wearing a tan suit.

conservatives believe any exercise of human freedom outside being a slop-gobbling couch potato is suspicious and unnatural, and that all pro-social behavior is nefarious conspiracy

There is rightly and obviously a lot of focus on the next funding bill but the goal has to be to take away the funds they already have and are being used.

NEW: The Israeli military today accepted the Gaza Health Ministry's estimate of 70,000+ killed. But in 2024, 62 Dems joined 207 Republicans to ban the State Dept. from citing the Ministry's stats. Now, even Israel accepts them — perhaps because they realize what is feared: the toll is even higher.

Using gen. A.I. to make slop imagery to go with any anti-fascist statement isn't any sort of flex as it was developed and promoted by the billionaires pushing fascism. Just fucking stop using it.

Amy when you’re done self-promoting do you think you could go get that kid out of that concentration camp

So many of these reforms are just more rules to enforce existing rules, meaning they can be ignored as easily as the rules already being ignored. Not only are the Democrats invested in the continued existence of ICE, they think you are too stupid to see what they are up to.

when some of these “reforms” call for closer coordination with law enforcement, these are the types of people ICE would be working with

I will believe that ICE enforcement has changed on the ground when I stop getting daily notices that armed, masked goons are circling my kids’ schools and trying to sow fear in the parent patrols.

The online-ification of politics is producing enormous tension here. Elected officials have become accustomed to tweeting or holding a press conference and having words accepted as reality, and in this instance people are noticing that the actual reality on the ground does not match it at all.

An AMAZING HAUL of gifts sent to me by the great @edrevelator34.bsky.social - thank you!!

Honestly crazy that the median Dem officeholder's stance is to continue sending $100 billion a year an opposition-controlled paramilitary. Forget public sentiment for a moment, are you just complete imbiciles?

Quote from Kamala Harris's DNC speech: "As commander in chief, I will ensure America always has the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world."

if you call the Gazan genocide, a world-historic horror, a “pet atrocity” then very simply put you have Hitlerite instincts.

Harris lost because six million Biden voters looked at her platform and said "no thanks", a tough pill to swallow for the liberal scolds currently blaming it on the anti-Genocide left

Biden is a genocidal freak who got off on dead Palestinian children, I have no other way to conceive of his last year and a half in office.

biden had his one term in power and he used it to steal our tax dollars to fund a genocide. kissinger will greet him at the gates.

71,000 dead and here in America our politicians and cops were siding with the murderous regime and expelling students from their universities. a stain that I hope future historians will contextualize for the evil it is.

80% of Democrats and yet (gestures at your party)

If you're a journalist listening to Homan BLOVIATE about law and order right now and your immediate question isn't *what gives YOU the authority to speak about crimes and "law and order" when you accepted a $50,000 bribe and keep avoiding any accountability?* then you are ridiculous.

even when they're in power, even when they have fascist thugs killing innocent people for no reason, they still can't help but make themselves the victgim. fucking pathetic

Conceding a lot of rhetorical ground here; “strategic” doesn’t seem to win much and “pragmatic” doesn’t have to be “short term or immediate;” the Citations Needed boys say ideology is just pragmatism over a longer time.

i’m sorry but if you’ve been paying attention to democratic politics at all at any point in time in the last 15 years, and still cannot spot this move, which they go to constantly, you’re either a mark or in on it and think we are all marks. i’m tired of these people and their bullshit. aren’t you?

get ready for more of this shit

(while presumably doing nothing meaningful on “affordability”)

the demands schumer laid out, in light of existing rules and current ICE practices, are not a serious effort at modifying ICE’s behavior in any meaningful sense. they’re an attempt to mollify the base with meaningless bullshit without actually changing anything so they can move on to affordability

One of my cats finished bothering me and walked out of the room at the same moment as the other one walked in. They're working shifts. I swear I saw them nod when they passed each other

Timeline cleanse

The truly unifying belief held by all centrists is that they have not just a right but a duty to police every social space

shout out to the bipartisan effort to sell tiktok so that people didn’t see anti israel content! you did it! now it’s owned by a pro trump pro israel billionaire!!!!!!

We need more public shaming

half of all tech news lately is some variation of "the computer company has discontinued their well known product, the computer"

Bismarck would be proclaiming the formation of Imperial Germany in Richmond even quicker than he did it in Paris

Love the alternate poster you can choose for this one

lmao
