Has anyone made a "viceroyality of don colombia" joke yet

US federal labor protections are basically "anything over 40 hrs/wk is OT (unless youre salaried), employers cant discriminate based on protected class (but best of luck if you ever are), and sure you can *try* to form a union if you reeeealllly want... everything else is kosher

Judging by ads, theyre counting on the couple dozen or so jobs created by each new data center

Here’s a nice thing on the Internet. Kilmar in his backyard, posting TikToks singing along to praise music, and people commenting with their protest signs when they demanded his freedom. 🙏

Hanging out with kids saying "6 7" got me like

Sorta feel the same about "podcast" but I dont have a word to describe "me as an 8yo only child recording himself interview mom and dad on a tape deck"

Theres already a tower crane on the site lol

Im very unfamiliar with the UK budget process but being over here during Budget Week, I can't help thinking Labour is the final boss of self-womping milquetoast western center-left parties...

Watching NFL in London is refreshingly like public broadcasting.. no ads, random guests, relatively quiet subdued chatter..

I found antifa hq

On this, I'll agree with President Trump: If Congress eliminates the filibuster, DC statehood is inevitable

Glad as I am about tonight's results, after 2024 I am never ever ever again conflating midterm electorates with presidential electorates

Why is this hard

The breathlessly-titled YouTube videos were right. Europa Universalis V is, indeed, bonkers

Who's speaking now, Winsome

Thinking about how the Biggest Strongest Manliest Men became grenadiers because they could throw ball good in the 18th century

Ayo

Oh man

Me following the commanders this year

Not very satisfying to say but the most likely way to stop this is for his favorables to reach world historic lows, through self-owns, dems driving a narrative and more no kings protests

The thing about the far right 100 years ago and today is that they loudly have opinions about EVERYTHING (not just politics) and well.. it works

Pickup artist

Full support to platner if he just explained he was a von mackensen stan

Anyone to the left of Joe Manchin who excuses the latter because of the former has completely lost the plot

Thinking about how even in Weimar Germany, being "authentic working class" was basically the opposite of being a nazi

JDACO

Bet

All the tarriff money is just going to an administration/Trump slush fund right

Naked political terrorism

They are not planning "a violent crackdown" on 10.18. What they are doing is sending a signal to their shock troops to try to cause havoc. But those shock troops will be vastly outnumbered. Go out and protest freely. Do not be cowed.

Let me be clear: backpay for these workers is required under a federal law I wrote with former Senator Cardin — which Trump signed — during the last Trump shutdown. This is just more fear mongering from a president who wants a blank check for lawlessness. It won't work.

This show is great. They even snuck a "make Italy great again" in there 😆

Oh hey neighbor! @raskin.house.gov

Can anyone out there please make a Winsome Sears "I am speaking" gif... iykyk

Also "keep reaching for that rainbow" popped into my head today re the trump admin 😳

All I remember about 2012 was going to Millie & Al's (rip) every night and eating jumbo slice for breakfast lunch and dinner

Vet i know with decades in the military on today's generals meeting: "I thought the talk about standards and mission was long overdue. The POTUS talk was all political with just a couple points about military priorities and mission..."

So.. is it at all possible someone in the white house is thinking "get all this bad shit we really want out of the way before the midterms, get creamed, and then PIVOT! to the 'middle,' thus paving the way for JD to glide into office in '28, with an assist from ecstatic media/business elites"?

Fun fact, no one has any first amendment rights while on the clock for their employer..

👀

Why did I see this and think "hunter biden"

Raw unionbusting in one letter... chilling stuff

Yeah? I recall "Roll Jordan Roll" being pretty damn good

Writing ANTI-ICE on a bullet because you live in a Ben Garrison cartoon

Like, the manicheanism is through the roof rn

Rs haven't in reality been "the party of personal responsibility" for some time (if ever) but every single one of them failing to even rhetorically entertain the idea that any right winger could ever be responsible for anything they ever do in their entire lives is new, right

Highest profile usage of "filed a grievance" i can recall

Awesome thread

Haha ok we get a "Special Edition of 7 News On Your Side" instead
