If Republicans change the rules to allow Trump to run for a 3rd term, then what’s to stop Obama from also running against him?

Kirk did not deserve to die. This is terrible.

The right really wanted a Pope that wasn't all that into Jesus.

[defense wheels out a tv with their own ai of the victim] hey man, thanks for killing me

Nope

This feels a lot like that early period of Covid when some people were shouting about how bad it was going to be while guys like Trump and Musk were predicting it would be over by April.

It's pretty wild, when you think about it, that the political press spent four years saying "Biden's real test: will Americans approve of his economy?" and then Trump's been president for three months and he's brutally murdering the economy and the political press is just not that focused on it

Just remembering this legend for no reason.

Oh my god you want me to find "evidence" before putting someone in jail? Every time?? Do you have any idea how long that would take

Here is an up to date list of Big Law collaborators along with how much in free legal services they have pledged to Trump's causes. Paul Weiss 40M Cadwalader 100M Milbank 100M Skadden Arps 100M Willkie Farr 100M A&O Shearman 125M Kirkland & Ellis 125M Latham & Watkins 125M Simpson Thacher 125M

Global temperature over the past two years have been very much on the high end of the range of future warming expected in a current policy-type scenario (SSP2-4.5) in the most recent IPCC report (which, itself, expects some near-term acceleration):

Absolutely brutal

"I didn't vote for" you did. Sorry. You did. Should have listened to the woke libtards instead of your roided out imaginary friends who told you kids were pooping in kitty litter at school

Yes!

They want to kill public education. There is no plan to train people to do these jobs. He is talking absolute shit.

But seriously, why should any American care if something is manufactured in the US if the only jobs it’s creating are robot-repairman jobs?

The robots are so psyched right now

“We cannot overstate what just happened. It took just 71 days for Trump to wreck the American economy, mortally wound NATO, and destroy the American-led world order... There is no going back... The Canadian prime minister declared the age of American leadership over. He was right.” @jvl.bsky.social

I explained it to several young teens today: imagine we wanted you to become more self-sufficient in the kitchen, so we decided to charge you $20 every time you got takeout. But also we have no food in the house, we won't let you go to the store, and also you don't know how to cook.

Why did we put tariffs on bananas? Seriously. Do MAGAts think we’re going to turn Hawaii into a banana plantation? Also, vanilla. It’s so bonkers

My stonks are down 🥺

it is because they want to impoverish the country! they don’t want high end manufacturing. they want americans working subsistence wages making t shirts and clothes hangers

This is part of what’s so insane. As they talk about re-shoring and manufacturing they are actively trying to destroy an entire us manufacturing industry that already exists.

so no regulation for food or drugs seems uuuhhh bad

Stop saying “if there is a next time.” There WILL be a next time because of US. WE are coming to save us.

“Love your neighbor as you love yourself” is not the best way to get me to treat people with kindness.

Yes

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Dems need to run commercials like this:

This little girl is an American citizen. She is fighting for her life. And Donald Trump shipped her out of her own damn country. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-faces-...

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

they look at russia — a stagnant backwater — with envy

But Fox is fine! 🤪

All remedies are on the table.

Glad Senate Democrats spent years not doing things to preserve the filibuster only to decide the savvy move is to not use it and give Republicans exactly what they want

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

Is there anything in the world more psychotic than using Microsoft Teams for a video conf call?

Voters who care about responsibility already vote D and it’s not enough. Need to start fighting.

“We don’t have leverage but we have responsibility” is the epitome of Democratic Party brain damage. YOU DON’T HAVE RESPONSIBILITY! NO ONE IS GOING TO REWARD YOU FOR “ACTING RESPONSIBLE” IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE DESTRUCTIVE REGIME FULLY CONTROLLED BY YOUR ENEMIES!

An heir to a south african emerald mine calling an American war veteran, astronaut, and elected senator a "traitor" for supporting Ukraine

To be absolutely, 100% clear, THIS is something that ends in “then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak out”

“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.” ―Upton Sinclair

lol, from UK satirical magazine Private Eye

Everything got so stupid so quickly.

The benefit, I think, of dems going on conservative media is not to “win” any debate but to get a message out to the listeners who wouldn’t otherwise hear it.
