You know who hasn’t cowered in the face of terrible violence and changed what they believe? Minnesota Democrats, who saw one of their own actually get gunned down by a pro-Trump lunatic. These people are cowards.

I don't even have much to say. This was a good vessel, the USN panicked at the slightest hint of delays and now is killing the program. There has not been a single vessel in US Navy service that hasn't been redesigned, delayed, and had some cost overruns in the last 60~ years.

This is the stupidest and most self-destructive USN procurement decision in at least a decade. Constellation was a relatively healthy program and progressing on a realistic budget and schedule, mostly baseless criticism of it notwithstanding.

oh look, Google is once again returning factually inaccurate data because it’s very important to them to use Daddy’s preferred terms

Elon Musk's relationship with Grok reminds me of that episode of Spongebob where Spongebob didn't want to make Plankton a krabby patty so Plankton put Spongebob's brain into a robot and the robot wouldn't make him a krabby patty either.

right, precisely. i'm the ox you can't gore. there are things which i would be upset if you did but none of them are absolutely core to my identity, whereas Black people are dealing with problems such as "will there be any Black people in Congress once Roberts is done destroying Reconstruction."

Email just went out on my campus that the Immigration Goons ("federal immigration agents") will be in town (Raleigh). Inter alia, it says,"International students, faculty and staff should carry evidence of their immigration status with them at all times." The fuck kind of country are we living in?

mr president sir theres a story coming about how you intervened to help a sex criminal. no sir, not that sex criminal you helped….no not that one either…sir, please stop guessing sex criminals that you helped. ill give you a hint sir, hes a trafficker. no sir, not that trafficker a different one

honestly it's been 374 years and no one has said it better than "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short"

i think that it is critically important to retaliate.

That’s nice but “personal violence is unthinkable” is religious thinking. I would take you more seriously if you were saying this would happen following the return of Jesus Christ

the idea that most people are economically motivated is a weird thing that liberals and leftists and centrists all really agree on and it just isn’t true conservatives care about cultural issues and power. money is a means to power for them. socialism doesn’t appeal bc it’s *equal*

the extent to which journalists will circle the wagons around even members of the profession who have serially violated every professional ethical standard possible is astounding

the key problem here is that the threshold for "publishable info" is a moving target and it moves to Trump's benefit

Unconstitutional "birthplace" stop by ICE. These are crimes. The solution to crime is punishment.

"Revolution of Dignity" is such a spot-on name for Euromaidan. I want dignity back.

Trump's ICE thugs are targeting veterans of the U.S. armed forces who lack citizenship.

Google AI is like an Eric Adams quote generator

anyone who is not willing to take the risk of gambling with starvation in order to save our system of government has no place in the Senate, and those who decided that they couldn't play a game with those stakes have not necessarily done anything wrong. they just have to leave.

They thought they could freeze them out when they should have been letting them in and showing off shiny objects, basically

'but thomas jefferson! I own slaves in the community!'

What this order makes clear is that plaintiffs can collect a mountain of animus, the district court can write extensively about the record, and the Supreme Court will just go “nuh uh.”

"heart attacks, renal failure, dementia - uhhhh mr president? mr president? bob you're gonna wanna check his pulse again"

if you're in line to bribe Eric Adams, stay in line

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

for the record I was wrong. fuck schumer, impossible to read this as anything but pathetic boomer racism.

gentlemen, you can't fight in here, this is the bass pro shop

Spangerger's theory of how to communicate moderation to voters has always been to shit on other Democrats. A few years ago she was doing "My party needs to stop saying 'defund the police'" when nobody in her party was saying defund the police. This is her M.O.

She'll win tomorrow and that's a good thing. On most policy issues she's basically fine. But Democratic moderates really need to figure out that making voters hate their party is bad for the party and bad for them personally. It's just terrible strategy.

This Mexican WWII poster is some of the hardest shit ever

i will not stand for someone describing joe biden as a pro immigration leftist. guy was genuinely monstrous on the issue

Letter: I would rather go hungry today than live under a law that abandons families tomorrow

all these companies need to die

With respect, Tara, no one in their right mind who was just federally indicted would discuss the factual details of their case. Donald Trump does that kind of thing because he is Donald Trump. That resulted in a criminal conviction and a civil fraud loss at trial, as well as gag orders.

The author of the piece screen-shotted below is a U.S. army officer. I would contend that an officer planning for a 'post-liberal' military has betrayed their oath to "support and defend the Constitution," perjuring themselves before God and men and is as a result, unfit to serve.

The End of History and the Last Orc

A Sudanese mother holds her child moments before being executed by the Rapid Support Forces militia. What is happening in Sudan is not just a war… It is a humanitarian wound, a mother’s cry, a nation’s sorrow calling on the world not to remain silent.

"If something evil is popular, is it still evil?" is basically the defining social question of our time.

This person is a bigot and her bigotries matter more to her than her own family. Many such cases in this country these days, sadly

The most enraging thing is a year ago we were a country that would help with these things as a matter of course. Now the entire system - USAID, FEMA, state - has been burned to the ground. And SOUTHCOM is busy doing piracy and murder.

"Cities should remain museum pieces for incumbents and any newcomer is strictly a burden" is the most loser mindset that powers the most loser politics in America today.

An embarrassingly obvious point, but... This. Is. Illegal. If anything like the rule of law were in force, Trump couldn't arbitrarily increase a tariff because he is annoyed. In important and increasing ways, the rule of law in the US no longer exists. www.cnn.com/2025/10/25/b...

USAF is far and away the biggest winner so far of the admin so far and it’s because Meink is nominally competent and can play the game while the other two service secretaries are constant stepping on rakes or posting externally and picking fights with congress and the committees

Trump’s tearing down the East Wing to build himself a $350M ballroom while Americans struggle to afford health care. Senator Ruben Gallego went to the site of the Trump teardown.
