Every Jewish institution making the decision to ally itself with this man and his movement is making an extremely obvious mistake This includes the State of Israel

Again, Trump ran a spectacularly antisemitic ad in the closing week of the 2016 campaign. It's been totally memory-holed but it's never actually been very subtle that, although they mostly don't empathize it, the Jew-hate is part of the mix for him and his movement

PUT IT IN THE BOOKS!!!

Again this is making me think about how... how utterly debased a lot of our real-world "polyamory"/"non-monogamy" is, how far away from the ideal/ethic of "free love," how little actual deconstructing of patriarchal, possessive customs are involved, it's JUST licentiousness

Phewwwwwwww but the puzzle for Architects' Melody is one of the coolest things I've ever seen

I mean, Taylor Swift exists

Age of Fakery!

As I keep saying, it would be real nice if everyone could just acknowledge him as the leader of the party sooner rather than later

Maaaaaaan that's an interesting choice of words huh

Cubs, I am gonna need this exact same level of roll over and play dead when the Mets get to Wrigley on Tuesday

Edwin Diaz in these shadows is just not fair

Uhhhh am I missing something or is this not just two minutes of Charlie Kirk getting thoroughly pwned (including by himself)???

What an utterly unhinged game of baseball, I can't believe they managed to lose it

Normal Times Meter: uhhhhh he'd be run out of town within a day or two

Man it's just getting worse in extra innings

Maaaaaan this game of base and ball...

Not exactly sharp baseball happening out in Flushing Meadows this weekend huh

What an insane collapse by the Tigers, huh

On Kershaw: A little metric I like is strikeouts minus walks and hits. It's kind of emblematic of the modern era, to have guys who are in positive territory there. Kershaw's got +146 for his career. Higher than anybody from earlier in baseball history except literally Pedro Martinez (+173)

Juan Soto and Luisangel Acuna just both walked in this inning on a combined five pitches

!!! Soto finally has a three run bomb

OH MY GOD I'M SO HAPPY

Not great to have a central banker advocating for ethnic cleansing as monetary policy huh

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Somehow I am only just seeing this, which is fantastic

Because it isn't the first nine months! It's four years and nine months! All the damage he did in his first term never healed!

That Soto foul ball, man Anyone on here remember the one Delgado hit off the base of the LF foul pole?

Okay yeah the Rove thing is bizarre

Ha ha ha ha Jesus Christ

Chuck my man, could you please call Donald Trump a tyrant and a usurper who should be removed from office

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

So uhhhhh Is now a good time to talk about how Trump is a usurper or what? eveningconstitutional.net/trump-is-a-u...

I think it's actually quite important that he do this, or something similar, and make it even more overtly anti-regime

As I was saying, we're seeing a prerogative state forming before our very eyes

Yeah uhhhh the Kimmel thing is real bad (Though like, so was the Colbert thing? So I'm not sure if this is "new level of bad" or just... more of the existing level of bad? Either way, definitely bad!)

Good evening! Fresh for Constitution Day, it's the latest from Constitutional Perspectives! Having canvassed each of the three branches individually, today we're looking at how they work together, and especially how they can work against each other eveningconstitutional.net/checks-and-b...

No but what the fuck though

Anyone uhhh, have a good "checks and balances" graphic I could use as an article header image??

This is a really good statement IMO

Yep. I'm basically convinced that (aside from the "what if I find a trans person hot??" element I mentioned last night) the point of the whole thing is that there is no point, that the only reason to be against trans rights is if you just hate human freedom as such

Happy Constitution Day y'all! (If it is a happy Constitution Day) (Which I doubt)

We all know this is the root cause of the panic, right?

Also I want to highlight that the part where nobody actually adheres to that bundle of views kind of suggests that it sucks, too (albeit not as much as Nazism sucks)

Yoooo the Cogwork Dancers fight is incredible though????

I would say that focusing on the legal question here is a slight category error. This is really about the creation of a dual state, wherein the law doesn't matter if you get on the State's bad side (Not dunking on Mike btw)

Hmmm is almost like the thing they all worship as "free speech" is some kind of... impostor?? Link unrelated papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

people who want other people to stay in sad little grey boxes forever and never be happy in their bodies or desires are villains and cowards and they may be winning right now but by god they will lose as water smooths stone and roots break it, because that fierce joy is roots and water and life

Thank you, President Luthor. (Seriously though: I have always kind of thought that the president specifically should have a super-Sullivan rule where he just can't sue anyone for defamation under any circumstances full stop)

Oh cool very cool we're doing "group libel of white boys" now
