Legit question. Now that we all see how self defeating and dumb gerrymandering is, how about we pass a nationwide ban on it to take effect in the 2030 census?

Trump’s morning posts: — Let’s kill Iranians who don’t want a deal — I’m ordering the Navy to shoot any boat putting mines in the Strait — We actually have full control over the Strait — I don’t need a deal

Sources say that if Kash Patel cannot stop binge drinking and spending taxpayer dollars on his personal travel, Donald Trump is prepared to fire the highest ranking woman at the FBI.

This seems like as good a time as any to remind everyone that throughout recorded history, troops in combat are more likely to die from disease than combat injuries. And it’s not even close. The major killer over time has been diarrhea.

Never say die

RFK Jr. Advocates Using Beef Tallow In Home Birth Tubs https://theonion.com/rfk-jr-advocates-using-beef-tallow-in-home-birth-tubs/

This is insane, tinpot authoritarian shit. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/u...

RFK Jr: This is not a problem that was created by the Trump administration or the big beautiful bill KAINE: Not in Virginia. All three of the hospitals cited the reconciliation bill for the closures

A New Jersey data center will reportedly receive $77 million in tax breaks — while only creating one permanent job. One job, in exchange for higher utility bills, noise pollution, and potential groundwater pollution. Is it any wonder communities are organizing to stop data centers?

they are calling it the perfect summary of the "keep men out of women's sports" movement

… then we will seal our own fate. We can, and must, remove Trump and his criminal gang. America can't take another 33 months of this shit. It's time for everyone to join and support what my friend @marcelias.bsky.social calls the "Fight Wing" of the Democratic Party. (2/3)

As I have been saying for a while this is going to happen and we need to start talking about it and pushing for it. We have to MAKE it happen If we take the defeatist approach that some Dems take—that he'll just magically disappear, or that we can just wait until Jan. 2029, ... (1/3)

Trust me, you'll want to give this a read:

You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂

Donald says we would have won the Vietnam War if he'd been president. Maybe he should have just served.

Just as Republican politicians never seem to have any sympathy for people suffering from a disease or discrimination until someone in their immediate family feels it, they'll never be opposed to gerrymandering until it darkens their own door.

"Hegseth yesterday took time out of his busy schedule of committing war crimes and firing generals to focus on the real enemy: vaccination...[But if] mandatory vaccination represents an 'era of betrayal,' then George Washington’s woke vaccines are the root of it." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

this is how Utah's Congressional map deals with Utah's largest city, cracking it through to the middle into 4 different districts in order to deny it Congressional representation to make sure Dems get 0 seats

It's impolite to call these people "Nazis" but that is Nazi talk and the President and his party stand behind this guy, they love him, they agree.

Speaking of which, if anybody would like one of these stickers to put on your Tahoe, moped, rocket launcher, or laptop, just send me a good address in the direct messages.

Every time Matt Damon takes on a period role he ends up looking like a third baseman for the Phillies.

Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time. This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.

My most liberal idpol radlib take is that I think it's pretty bad that right wing forces are actively intervening on behalf of the Klan with the full weight of the state legal apparatus

My statement on reports that the Trump-Vance Administration may send Afghans, including those who served with the U.S. military and more than 400 children, to the Congo:

Last year, the flu vaccine saved 12,000 lives and prevented over 100,000 hospitalizations according to the CDC.

Stolen from some dude on Threads... Alan Dershowitz: I didn’t leave the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party turned 18

Brett Kavanaugh officiated Sarah Isgur's wedding and is helping her promote her book, which is all about how good and noble the Supreme Court is. There is no reason to take seriously anything this person says about her very powerful, life-tenured friends. Seriously, have some respect for yourself.

Kash Patel must resign or be fired. More than two dozen current and former FBI officials are alleging that he has a serious drinking problem. Patel’s own security detail reportedly had to request breaching equipment because they could not wake him.

Right: [reviles academia for generations, celebrates deportations for writing op-eds and protesting, dismantles departments it doesn’t like, enacts de jure speech codes] Left: [is sometimes annoying and unserious] Some Academics:

The real failure to look in the mirror is academics falling back on comfortable “we’re partly responsible because we enforced left wing orthodoxy“ thinking rather than the less comfortable truth that Trump/MAGA are bad faith actors who will only be satisfied with resegregated MAGA academies

Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of humanity than disease. While worst is a more complicated question Hegseth is absolutely the dumbest secretary of defense the United States has ever had. bsky.app/profile/ones...

Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars. There's just gotta be a line somewhere. Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.

“The MAGA crowd is made of dumb people — like, SUPER dumb people. And they fall for it.” For my @wired.com feature debut, I talked to Sam, a guy who made thousands of dollars on Instagram by scamming MAGA men with Emily Hart, an AI generated, Trump-loving influencer. www.wired.com/story/ai-gen...

Looks like everybody in the Trump administration is a junkie, a drunk, a fucking psychopath, or a pedo. Some are all of the above.

This is a war based on lies

looking good sir

Looks like the prosecutors couldn’t make it stand up in court

Plenty of criticism on the right of the #SCOTUS leaker and the Times’s reporting, but has anyone actually responded to the argument that Roberts’s assessment of “irreparable harm” and his refusal to balance the equities is completely inconsistent with his subsequent behavior in all the Trump cases?
