Notably the first time I think I've seen a major presidential candidate (let's not be coy about that) mention expanding the House.

Nearly 180,000 Black men served in the Union Army. Another 19,000 in the Navy. Black soldiers accounted for roughly 10% of Union military deaths. A large portion of each were formerly enslaved. I imagine they gave a damn about slavery.

The modal Republican DHS head is a gutter racist who supports pogroms against minority populations. Nazi nazi nazi.

Would like war with Iran to not be happening.

That's a pogrom Like actually, down to the tacit approval of state authorities, in this case via the cops looking on

Refering to their very real friend using the pejorative Democrat

the cultural notion of The Gentrifier has given all the corniest people in New York the idea that their provincialism is a legitimate form of politics and I don’t think we should have to put up with that

A great shame that a Nazi was allowed to speak at a D-Day memorial event.

he still sees himself as American. Despite everything, EVERYTHING, this government and this nation did to him, he sees the strangers and neighbors who rallied to his side because it was RIGHT, and he chooses to believe in that America. He looks at America and sees HOME.

And that the media just don't fucking care.

It's cool that our president is senile and no one cares.

There’s just no way I see another Scary Movie entry in my life.

Ready to sincerely thank Platner for his public service in drawing *so* much shit into the light.

I know that we can get a little hyper-partisan here, but a lot of people did pour their heart and soul into Spencer Pratt's campaign. If you know any, please take a moment to reach out and be human: tell them politics will always feel this way and they should not participate in the future.

Pardon

Imperial Japan apologia is crazy. My American schools bothered to teach about them rather than singularly focus on German nazis.

god this ruleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

“I’ll be the chief opposition to the Egyptian gov’t… That doesn't make me anti-Egyptian...I want my tax dollars to be spent here rather than sent over there to cement the chokehold of a military dictatorship on its own people. I apply the same exact principles to Israel.” -Abdul El-Sayed

literally make it illegal for him to travel after this

In the movie soundtrack mines today

Conservative’s treatment of Trump as a king is a caricature and outgrowth of every story Fox made up about Obama acting like a king while in office.

Seems more like it's just embarrassing for these other people that a billionaire is just plainly more progressive than them

Election day and my only wish is Republicans get locked out of the top two general election slots in as many California races as possible

Jared Polis, man.

Trump really has remade the whole conservative movement in his image. Weiss is just like him, a petulant power mad imbecile who can do literally nothing right and gets incandescent with rage anytime she is questioned, but also too much of a chickenshit to fire people to their face

“Get a load of this guy?” done well

Many previous US massacres have always been played off as individual bad soldiers that didn’t reflect the service as a whole. There’s no fig leaf here. This is the top-brass of the United States military stooping to routine international murders without even a whiff of coherent legal justification.

Thinking about doing an Obsession+Mando double feature today

More polls like this would tip me toward voting Steyer over Becerra

Simple majorities deserve infinitely more respect that American political culture provides it

Wouod really like the Republican Babylon of Texas to fall

White, male identity politics rules everything around me

"Wah I don't like either party now" from any trump voter is a W, we take those

Got a YT ad on a country song telling me, in an ai voice, that doctors are hiding a drink written about in the bible that cures type II diabetes (“don’t think it’s in there? Look again.”) Pretty grim outlook on the modern world from the ad!

Tbf Republicans had “concepts of a plan” as part of their pitch in 2024

“What would illiberal hegemony look like?” Well

Don’t pay attention to ailing, current president who is decomposing in front of our eyes, apparently.

4.35m March, Texas primary votes being split evenly between Democrats and Republicans with Ds winning with a .05m edge, with 1/4 never participating in a primary before is interesting.

See i think Republicans are actually pure evil and people like Talarico who oppose them are morally superior.

Oh he sucks sucks

GOP voters picking Paxton and all the GOP staffers are groypers and voters will say there’s no difference between the parties.

at the risk of oversimplifying, i do not find it especially surprising that a full ten years into the era of donald trump dominating our politics, americans find ourselves angry, bitter, cynical and resentful no matter our material conditions.

We would be better off if little bro only turned on cable news once every 40 years

They don't like tech. They don't like improving your health. They don't believe vaccines work well enough to stop wearing masks. They don't believe in weight loss without misery. They don't want you to leave your birthplace. They distrust foreigners, intellectuals, and "the elite."

"So whats your take?" "The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down and whisper 'No.'" "Oh totally agree"

Stephen Colbert’s production team emotionally tying the show’s political cancellation to the Beatles’ first American performance in the same theater is clever. It feels like Republicans are stealing the Beatles from America. It’s difficult to watch McCartney tear up on stage. youtu.be/zG0HFw0edXY

Happy Friday to you guys

Subway Takes is content for transplants who aren't comfortable in their own skin in the city. What you have to remember is that if New York isn't open for everyone it's no longer New York, it's something smaller and worse.
