It’s her day

What did people think he meant when he said Republicans just had to elect him this one time and then they would fix it so no one had to vote anymore? Like what other explanation was there?

Virginia Supreme Court declaring Democratic gerrymandering illegal while Republicans are literally wrapping themselves in Trump flags while disenfranchising black southerners is the most on brand moment for the modern USA.

if you let the white south go too many generations without federal occupation, this is what they get up to

what makes the SCOTUS Gang of Six acting as an unaccountable super-legislature especially intolerable is that they are not just setting up unfavorable rules, they are playing Calvinball where they selectively apply the rules case-by-case exclusively to help Republicans. A judicial dictatorship

the thing dem pols need to internalize is this guy and his entire family will vote republican for the rest of their lives, regardless of the republican party literally ending their livelihood

Trump knows that everyone understands what "Low IQ person" means when he says it but the press isn't willing to write it. He knows they will always cover for him and he loves that he can get away with it. He's used so many old timey racist terms he hopes no one knows but he also does this

i know the nba loves a heel but they really need to get Lu Dort off the court before he causes a career-altering injury to a star

This is sociopathy masquerading as socialism.

Josh Hart is grabbing and shoving dudes left and right. No calls lol.

if the authors of this piece want to live in a world with socialist policies, they should stop boosting selfish, anti-social behavior

He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence

why on earth are you trying to convey that message to the country chuck

Think about this: The leader of the Senate Democrats just voted against 85% of his caucus all to keep sending bulldozers to Israel, so it can continue to demolish Palestinian and Lebanese people's homes.

Coming around to the theory that his upcoming book about faith is gonna be about converting *again*

i will vote for any candidate who offers up this slogan

Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.

@tonyreast.bsky.social can I say something bold and brave? Kam Jones is actually pretty good and if he hadn't missed half the season with a back injury, I think he'd be comfortable enough with this team that he'd be no doubt for next season. Needs to be more comfortable finishing but he is good.

you were never going to get an anti-war president from a chauvinistic, jingoistic political party full of people who fantasize about being in a holy war. and yet, despite the US Army raising the enlistment age to 42, not a single one of these pro-war podcasters and pundits have signed up to fight.

they are calling it the scotus cuck chair

If I were a vast imperial power I would simply not become so hubristic about my military might that I become embroiled in a prolonged asymmetrical war with a weaker power who's fundamental willingness to stick it out means that they can bear not losing for longer than I can afford to not win.

They started an illegal war of choice during an ideological, racist and sexist purge led by right wing podcasters calling targets on a sieg heiling billionaire’s website, believing their superior genes and brutality would lead to rapid victory and are now facing defeat bsky.app/profile/dunc...

The Atlantic during the campus protests

I have no particular feelings one way or another about LaFlamme or any of the other non-Mills/Platner candidates, but I am not sure why Platner immediately got treated like a serious major candidate while a bunch of other people who were certainly not *less* qualified than him got treated as jokes.

honestly why not this lady instead of platner

the Nazi and Soviet files are full of stuff like this.

they never forgave Kerry for it either, and the media (even then controlled by oligarchs and conservatives) helped sink his Presidential campaign by potraying his heroic service in Vietnam as cowardly and Bush's cowardly draft dodging as heroic bsky.app/profile/kelp...

Radical extremist cleric issues angry new fatwa -->

Average Bsky poster: "We must inaugurate a Second Reconstruction with blood and fire." Average Democratic politician: "We are in a war for the Republic, which is why I propose a 23.7% tax cut." Average liberal columnist: "For too long the transgenders have blocked research into the racial IQ gap."

Focusing on a guy who was imprisoned for his campus speech! The cynicism of Powell's entire project is breathtaking

vaxxed?

Some Tech CEO every day: "You don't get to own things now. I own your refrigerator. If you say mean things about me I will turn off your fridge and spoil all your dairy and eggs and meat. If you don't like it you go to jail." People in my mentions: "Lmao are you REALLY a luddite? smh"

democrats still seem to be laboring under the delusion that they can introduce stuff to pass while trump is president and they, not trump, will somehow get credit for it. they learned nothing from trump taking credit for covid stimulus checks

They’re saying nobody has ever done a national suicide as beautiful as mine. They say to me, eyes full of tears, “Mr President I’ve never seen a country kill itself as bigly.” And I smiled to myself. Think of that. Killing yourself. I’d do it. Maybe I will do it right now, who’d stop me? I wouldn’t.

“Voting against the troops”

lmfao Thomas Keller showing up to a community meeting in his chefs jacket to complain about affordable housing being built near his 3 Michelin star restaurant is just beyond parody. what a piece of shit

We should never ever forget why they did it

tapping the sign

this is what awaits us if we fail to crush Platner in the primary, "oh the party of Nazi Tattoos has something to say?" every time forever

Say what you will about the strikes on Iran and the resulting chaos, but Hegseth truly has captured the chivalric ethos of the original Crusaders (purposeless, unstrategic, basically slaughtering people for clout)

Its one thing to read the histories and realize that fascism is an ideology by and for weird losers who suck at everything, and another to live through it

this is what they said it would be like under socialism

Keir Starmer could not be reached for comment

It would be embarrassing under any circumstances to spend a year on this reactionary horseshit, but to have spent the year in which graduate students were sent to concentration camps for op-eds and the federal govt launched a no hold barred attack on academic freedom is just beyond

okay but like the burden is literally on us
