Those of us in the pro-democracy movement can and should hold both of these positions. 1. We unequivocally reject violence. 2. We will unequivocally oppose efforts by this administration to use last night as an excuse to try to suppress criticism and criminalize dissent.

To any Hungarians annoyed that Americans are placing the credit for your momentous victory on the shoulders of our stunningly repellent little weasel of a VP: you are correct to feel that way, I'm sorry, we just want to seize any available oppurtunity to humiliate him specificially

sorry, if you want social media to be less toxic, you are obligated to be all in favor of food posts, which are objectively way less toxic than the vast majority of other topics

A lot of people collaborated with the OG Nazis as well. Mr. Klion should reflect upon how such people were remembered by history.

Counterpoint: Democrats want ICE razed more thoroughly than Carthage in 146 BC, the ideological territory in which it operates salted so thoroughly it never grows again, and every single one of these goons in front of a judge to face justice for their crimes.

i guess, fundamentally, i am just anti-crank. if your position is that normal, everyday people getting out into the streets to protest in the tens of thousands are doing it wrong, you’re a crank, and i assume you believe a lot of other crank shit i don’t care about.

ICE shot and killed a woman on camera today. We all saw the video. The Trump administration is lying.

I reached out to the author of this viral Reddit post thinking there might be a story in it. He sent me an employee badge that Gemini flagged as being AI-generated and supporting documents that I suspect were also generated by AI. Be careful out there folks! www.reddit.com/r/confession...

Breyer: But wouldn't that then always be the case? If the civilian law enforcement tells you we want military force just in case something happens? Sherman: Absolutely, your honor...and we had plenty of capacity to do that. Breyer: Ok, I think that answers my question

It has been the honor of my life to serve as Commissioner of BLS alongside the many dedicated civil servants tasked with measuring a vast and dynamic economy. It is vital and important work and I thank them for their service to this nation.

I deleted several posts about a Times story because they violated Times social media standards.

Generalizing *a GOP convention delegate* to represent everyone who voted for Trump is proving Elliott's point for him.

Okay. The people have spoken. For every reskeet this gets, I will post a random picture from my camera roll with no explanation (other than alt text). Let the games begin.
