"What does emancipation have to offer the humble planter?!"

this is the Most Transparent Administration In History (derogatory)

I spent a decade trying to convince people that homes can't be BOTH affordable AND a great investment... ... and he just... tweeted it out.

Wow, who could have predicted this?

"the craziest ever"

Go for it Seahawks.

I miss Institutions

As always, there is a dangerous contingent on the Left which sees Trump's abuses of power, not with horror but with jealousy.

Al Michaels: "that is the craziest two point conversation in NFL history"

Everyone thinks they're soooo clever posting" "86 47" But they overlook the waaaaay better option: "69 44"

One policy that would drastically improve your city: Any homeowner who receives a homestead or senior citizen exemption on their property taxes is permanently banned from speaking at city meetings or planning hearings.

"strip mining our quality of life and resources" is how your friendly widow nextdoor describes the concept of apartments

All of the Republicans who pretended to be outraged that random libs online were celebrating the Kirk merk are now fully-throatedly defending the President blaming Reiner for his own murder. These people are ontologically evil.

These ISIS murders of Americans are Trump's fault. His weakness and senility leaves our overseas troops vulnerable and endangered. Those soldiers would still be alive if we had a strong leader like Kamala at the helm right now.

In retrospect Star Wars Episode I is actually perfectly good. Y'all only hate it because it opens with a paragraph about taxes on trade routes. Sound familiar?

Never let the Republicans forget that they created this police state.

Getting some good googling in today

"Homeownership is a fantastic investment for building generational wealth" You're talking about a landed gentry you unamerican fuck.

We have to be able to say this: if you are a retired person who spends hours every week posting NIMBY slop to try to block apartments in your community... ... you are a fucking loser. Simple as that.

Every state in the union periodically establishes a property tax task force/working group/committee. They always have the exact same mandate: "help struggling homeowners while maintaining funding of schools, police and other services". Spoiler alert: those two goals are incompatible.

If you authorize military strikes on drug traffickers while pardoning the people who run their networks, it's obvious that you don't actually care about drug imports. Trump doesn't actually believe we're at war with "narco-terrorists" (fake term btw). He just wants to kill people. War criminal.

This post is impeachable all on its own. Fuck anyone who still supports this vile vitriolic cretin. They are all devoutly un-American, are enemies to basic human decency, and they deserve your disdain every day of their hateful, ignorant lives.

There's a reason Trump constantly screeches about companies *promising* to invest trillions in the US, rather than pointing to *actual data*. Investment in new factories in the US: ~ flatlined under Trump1 + trebled under Biden, and is - falling under Trump2

I'm curious whether left-NIMBYs feel any kind of embarrassment that their "YIMBYs are funded by developers" articles keep getting used by homeowners to fight upzoning in my very wealthy¹ very blue community. (¹ median income $160k, median home $1.2m, median rent $2k, voted Kamala 85%)

If you get brought to a country under a refugee visa, and then the government changes its policy, revokes your visa, and intends to deport you to a country where you are highly likely to be murdered... ... then I think you are morally justified in committing violence against that government.

Is it "refer to her as daddy" or "call up her daddy on the phone"?

[Guy who owns multiple pieces of merch from a politician who openly campaigned on "lock her up"]: "THE DEMONCRATS PROSECUTED THEIR POLITICAL OPPONENTS!"

The South really was a rural fucking backwater when they tried to pick a fight with the greatest nation in the history of humanity.

Despite the professional cost, I'm no longer on Twitter because it is a nazi site being manipulated by a billionaire who has hideous beliefs and close proximity to the white house. (screenshot because she disabled replies and quote tweets)

Such a fun battle to pull this off tonight Connections Puzzle #894 🟨🟪🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟪🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟦🟦🟦🟦

Maybe Trump is being nice to Mamdani because he thinks he's underage.

It's not that deep. Mamdani is smart, charismatic and charming, while Trump is an easily-manipulated dumbass who just echoes whoever he spoke to last.

God William Cronon's writing is so brilliant. He pretty much opens Nature's Metropolis by saying "I know commodity markets are boring, but interested in them not because I'm a pervert but because they shape our natural world" lmao.

Does it bother anyone else that our pedophile president has the intelligence of a teapot?

Private ownership and private consumption of natural resources are shoplifting from nature. Exclusive and untaxed landownership is shoplifting from nature.

It's crazy that "every accusation is a confession" includes when they said our elites were running a pedophile ring.

More seriously it’s at least a little funny that the people who would most likely reject the concept of emotional intelligence have been getting conned for a decade by a man whose emotional intelligence is very high but would be a cretin by their own definition of intelligence.

We learned absolutely nothing from the Catholic Church scandals, the Weinstein scandal, Penn State, etc etc etc.

Folks have been telling me they’ve noticed I’ve gotten “a lot more political” on social media this year. Of course I have. The circumstances have gotten nightmarishly worse, and the consequences of inaction and staying silent infinitely more obvious. Everyone needs to get “a lot more political.”

Assuming my face hasn't been eaten first, it is going to be incredibly satisfying to watch Ben Shapiro's face be eaten by the tigers he nurtured and protected for a decade.

Political scientists need to explain to the Democrat electeds how they, as ostensible believers in a liberal democratic society, are supposed to operate when the other party is Pure Evil and a third of the country is Into That Sort Of Thing.

We are going to do American Nuremberg, and we are going to do it in Trump Tower New York (newly renamed to "The People's Tower").

Filibuster? I hardly even know her!

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

Google Maps is a more impressive achievement than any given physical wonder of the world, in my opinion.

Fucking do it cunts, see who the public blames.

Mamdani winning unironically makes me want to move to NYC (even more than I already did).

So when does Mamdani start executing Capitalists?

Anyway, I'm not watching the game, but if you're not rooting for the Jays I question your commitment to liberal democracy
