This is a prime example of why right-wing populism slides so easily into antisemitism. You need a populist framing of "the people" versus "the elites," but you can't frame the elites in strictly economic terms, or else you end up with leftism. Hence you need another way to define "elites."

If this is true -- a very big if -- it is surely how McConnell would have wanted to go: exploiting the timing of the death of major figures (Scalia, RBG) for cynical partisan gain.

I have a leg up over brain dead AI people?! Hell yeah

they are not afraid of him being a bad mayor, they are afraid of him being a good mayor

Ppl on this app will genuinely doompost "WE'RE SO FUCKED" like a mantra 10 times a week, call it activism, and then wonder why it didn't fix anything

FUCK

one of those coincidences that seems too good to be true but it is!

I want to have a word with the writers of this new show WORLD CUP. That Cape Verde thing you had going was THE PLOTLINE. You don't have a better story than this this season. Come on. Time to Bobby Ewing this shit, call today a dream, and get Cape Verde back in the mix.

Removing images from this app is progress but it won't really take off until they also remove posts

If you have someone with combat/war zone experience in your life we will also appreciate being fed treats to help us not be scared.

I swear, "a pope from Chicago excommunicates a Nazi-adjacent sect" is like a cut scene from The Blues Brothers

And we’re all looking for the guys who did this. Guy-in-a-hotdog-suit.gif

With nearly all votes in, Sen. John Hickenlooper won his primary just 53-47. This got far less attention than the left’s outright wins, but it’s historically bad for an incumbent. Only two Dem senators since 1972 have lost renomination to challengers to their left, & he massively outspent Gonzales

"...the US, according to some of the officials, went so far as to ask other countries in the region to warn Iran about the possibility Israel could target the two officials." The US started the war with decapitation strikes & is warning *checks notes* Iran about Israel's plans to do the same. WILD.

I think ever since my accident, my ability to process caffeine has diminished Can’t have anything anymore

Just a little something in my SO's (@rawringcrafts.gay) Etsy Shop. DAMN BOY Were you just frying chicken in there? Haha For Real though, you piss loud as fuck. I think thats Pretty cool. 🦇🦔🔴 ▶️ www.etsy.com/listing/1224... ◀️ #Sonic #RougetheBat #WoodWorking #Lasers

Bookmark this Trump post and check to see if he bought Micron on his next disclosure

U.S. hiring fell to just 57,000 in June, suggesting companies remain wary of the economy's health.

The image here borrows its title from Grant's 1868 presidential campaign slogan, "Let us have peace." Here's what Frederick Douglass had to say about that sentiment.

Eight days after two earthquakes struck Venezuela, a security guard was rescued from a collapsed shopping mall.

So far, that’s happening. Democratic Sens. John Fetterman (Pa.), Gary Peters (Mich.) and Elissa Slotkin (Mich.) all returned blue slips, allowing district court nominees in their states to advance. 🙃

TONY STARK WAS ABLE TO BUILD THIS IN A CAVE, WITH A BUNCH OF SCRAPS

*slowly looks into camera* you know who you are

This is reprehensible and shows just how bogus his justification for freeing her was. Peters participated in an attack on our democracy and has no remorse. Colorado Democrats must impeach Polis. This much flagrant contempt for the rule of law must have consequences

NEW: In the term ending last year, the Supreme Court passed a troubling milestone: The Shadow Docket overtook the normal process. That means more unsigned decisions with no reasoning and secret votes from the highest court. @kbmorales.bsky.social has your scoop: www.propublica.org/article/supr...

Peppy! This is the 7th time you've brought up my dad!

Sony is taking this away from us

The absolute state of gaming in the big 2026

This so fucking stupid

I sincerely hope we can push them to reverse this decision. Because why in the hells would I trust digital "ownership", when you just deleted 551 movies and shows from users libraries. And not to mention getting external storage is an extra $200-$300, and will probably go up further.

Happy Canada Day!

ME: So they made this musical about you, and it was a huge hit, but it was also kinda the death knell of American democracy? A sort of hip-hop threnody for the Republic. Oh wait, you don't know about rap! It's this-- RESURRECTED ALEXANDER HAMILTON: {not looking up from his kalshi trades} Yeah great

Attention federal student loan borrowers: Major changes are coming your way, starting Wednesday. Here's what you need to know. https://cnn.it/4eTLiWY

Finally got the new Star Fox! Saw I’m closer in age to Peppy than to Fox.

This was correct in 2014, as was "Sotomayor & Kagan should immediately retire in Jan 2021," as was "Thurgood Marshall should have retired in 1978" etc. Pretending Justices were irreplaceable geniuses instead of aging partisan votes in a 9-member super-legislature has been Democrats' fatal error.

In Loser News, Goose Expert and SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son is set for a miserable time, and a brutal reckoning, as banks turned SoftBank down for a $6bn loan with its entire OpenAI $100bn stake as collateral, and its IPO delayed until at least 2027. www.wheresyoured.at/the-ai-industry-is-losing/

mr pope bob sir I'm begging you. excommunicate this man.

you know, when someone says something like "these are the things that need to be done to avert disaster" and your response is "you think democrats will do that?!?" all you're telling me is that you think politics is a spectator sport

SCOTUS reform won't just simply happen if Dems take Congress & the White House. A case has to be made for it—to a skeptical public, to reluctant politicians, to a hostile media. The blowback from the right will be intense and terrify a lot of weak-willed pols. The case has to be made starting *now*

literally one day apart. goldfish would scoff at this lack of object permanence

Guaranteed: 1) Black girls will be harassed and demanded to be tested over and over again regardless of how competitive they are. 2) Winners from public schools will be relentlessly hounded by the parents and coaches of losers at private schools, with the goal of making them quit the sport.

The ban is heinous for what it does to transgender athletes. But if you think cisgender girls and young women won’t be caught up in the fallout, too, you are woefully ignorant

I’m glad Rep. Kean was able to get treatment and not lose his job while seeking care. These are the rights we want for everyone, not just members of Congress.

5-4 that the 14th amendment is apart of the constitution. We need Supreme Court reform done before any other reforms this country needs bc this institution will simply invalidate those reforms bc fuck you, we said so.

If Rs win in 2028 and replace Sotomayor, it's gone. I don't know why a bloc of left-wing voters convince themselves "the court shouldn't matter, you can't blackmail me" but that happens every decade and a half for some reason

The Supreme Court is an illegitimate institution built on minority rule. 5 of the 6 Republican justices were appointed by presidents who lost the popular vote for their first term and confirmed by senates that Republicans controlled despite Democrats winning more votes and representing more people
