the Muppets have been real quiet since the Louvre heist

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly. Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested. Stay safe out there.

tired: abolish ICE wired: abolish DHS inspire: repeal the patriot act

The entire Republican Party strategy for achieving what are comprehensively & wildly unpopular policy objectives now consists entirely of bypassing Article I of the Constitution through wildly illegal abuses of both Article II and Article III.

I do think letting Nixon walk led to letting the Iran Contra leaders walk which led to letting the financial scammers walk which led to the insurrection leaders walking. A lot of this in the name of unifying the nation while the perpetrators retooled and got worse.

The emotional labour of thinking

Every once in a while I remember Trump changed vice presidents because he sent a violent mob to take care of his previous one and that’s not a thing anyone even talks about.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

The autocrat's toadies destroy functioning governance and launch crisis after crisis in order to create a nation that runs on patronage in which he's the only one able to do anything for anyone.

baseball is the best preparation for death because it does not come with a clock that tells you when your suffering will end one way or the other

What do you mean "possible rise," dude is at the top of the pack. He is the literal pope

Need to skip the end of baseball games to go running more, apparently.

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

The GOP has been trying to replace Obamacare for 15 years. It still does not have a plan. We are supposed to take their claim to be a party interested in legitimate governance seriously.

what if I told you that taking accountability for your actions was traditionally considered a load-bearing feature of masculinity?

I know these guys are all dumber than a sack of hammers, but it is fascinating to see the military decide “logistics are gay” in real time

Ted Cruz just posted a video montage with photos of every Democratic senator altered to make them wear sombreros and mustaches. It’s set to the song Macarena. What the fuck are we doing here?

This fever dream against diversity is just wildly at odds with the reality of the modern US labor market that all employers, including the military must compete for talent in

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

"War is Peace" is one of the three core slogans of the fascist government in 1984, and it's pretty damn chilling to see the Secretary of Defense demanding that the U.S. Armed Forces adopt it as truth. George Orwell wrote that book as a cautionary tale drawing on, yes, history!

I do not want to enable location services. I do not want to create an account. I do not want to sign up for special offers and news about your product. I would like to engage in a simple transaction where I give you money in exchange for a good.

Hey Congress! Hey Judiciary! Hey Corporate America! Have you ever seen this many Feds speaking out and saying how worried they are? Perhaps you should actually believe them? Perhaps do something? Are you really just going to stand there and watch while they destroy the freedom you claim to revere?

ICE Nazis in Chicago tried to kidnap a food delivery worker but my man was too fast for those slow bastards

Still no details leaked on the shooter or motive, so likely a conservative white male evangelical Christian. It'll be swept under the rug, because Republicans can't politicize blaming guns or evangelical Christians, and they all believe routine gun violence is affirmatively good for society.

that we have built an alternate media ecosystem in which every American city is an apocalyptic hellhole - completely unmoored from reality - and the political system has collapsed to the point that the president can use this fabrication to send troops against his own citizens is a staggering failure

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

If the government is simply whatever Donald Trump wants, it makes no sense to vote to fund it

Feel like if this is how the law works, there’s no reason to make a budget deal because there’s no reason to believe anything that you win via Congress will actually happen anyway.

Conservatives love to darkly say stuff like “you aren’t prepared for what’s next, we’re not going to be moderate anymore, you have no idea what you’ve unleashed” and then cry like babies when you call them fascists

Lamar Jackson was sacked SEVEN times against the Detroit Lions.

would’ve been poetic to convert one one yard longer than tucker’s 66-yard game winner from a few years ago, but

So…Aaron Glenn’s sideline celebration is 🔥🔥🔥 with Earth, Wind & Fire attached to it.

"The Lions social media, they got receipts. They're waiting." Scott Van Pelt after the "Monday Night Countdown" crew unanimously picked the Ravens to beat the Lions.

This is, I think, the best push alert and makes me wonder why this directness isn’t the norm.

the jets did something so cool that their coach is dancing his ass off on the sidelines

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

if our constitutional rights are contingent on “dems winning 2026” or whatever, there are no rights

By the way, you can in fact run a media business where people give you money for goods and services. 56k+ people give The Onion ~$100 and we give them a year of newspapers. This business didn’t exist last year in this way. People will pay for good shit. Now’s the time to break glass and go for it.

What is to prevent Brendan Carr from canceling the licenses of affiliates who accurately report election results unfavorable to Trump? Or a scandal involving a Trump associate? Or bad economic numbers. Unbridled authoritarianism.

idk if you've seen this south korean editorial that ran a few days ago. google translate version scorched my eyebrows www.hani.co.kr/arti/opinion...

I’m no politics genius but I don’t think it’s a good sign when the news is implying that knowing a trans person is a gateway to terrorism

Too bad the GOP effectively criminalized studying how information moves online and news orgs laid off and demonized all the reporters who covered the burgeoning online accelerationist performative death cults. All of that work was somehow "censorship" that needed to be stopped. Now we're here.

They have never, ever expressed anything close to this level of pain and sympathy for school shooting victims.

This is the official spokesperson for the White House, stating that the President hopes to deploy the United States military to occupy every city controlled by the political party that opposes him. Explicitly.

"school shooting industry"

hey im putting something together for my boss for his birthday. yeah can you write a letter or better yet an insane poem or horrifying drawing about the unspeakable crimes you all have committed together
