Guess S.S. stands for Shorty Squad

If any candidate who thinks they might lose can launch a preemptive lawsuit attacking a state’s election rules, won’t this just turn every election into a chaotic vortex of competing lawsuits?

hard to see another country living your dream

With a national culture this paranoid, insecure and reactionary, we need to fully eradicate “reasonable fear” as a legal standard for murderous self-defense.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Call me crazy, but I don’t know that I want a company whose motto was “Move Fast & Break Things,” building nuclear reactors

The chair behind the president’s desk in the Oval Office should be electrified, and we should all have an app on our phones that lets us vote once a day whether to flip the switch. If 2/3rds vote yes, the president is toast.

I guess it’s good to know that if I am ever murdered by an ICE agent, they’ll spin it so I sound way more badass and heroic than I actually am. “Suspect was not, in fact, an unarmed coward fleeing in fear for his life, he was actually an extremely dangerous & handsome revolutionary!”

It's so fucking convenient that they get to "fear for their lives" anytime they want to absolve themselves of anything and when we actually fear for our lives because of them and do anything a scared person would do it's justification for our death.

What incentive do democratic-led states have to continue as part of the United States, aside from fear of military invasion? In what ways do they benefit at all from being donor states to a federal gov’t that actively hate them even as they’re the beating heart & brain of the national economy?

Dead serious: Someone needs to convince the military to do It to Trump’s entire cabinet.

Stephen Miller is Trump’s most important and influential aide because he channels and shares the president’s worldview. His cold-blooded assessment that might makes right is the one immutable law of history and is now the guiding concept behind US foreign policy…

Got baited by some Blue Maga bs and now I’m blocked by the author of Lamb. We live and we learn.

Big night for getting into weird threaded convos with writers way more famous than me!

Pretty sure I’ve seen Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer getting spit on by a Dom in a Trump mask at the same fetish club in NYC

We need more people like these guys and fewer people like the head editors of the NYT and WaPo

We need an anti-Pulitzer award to give annually to the worst piece of journalistic cowardice

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier

Except Trump immediately sabotaged this (false) argument by declaring himself in charge of Venezuela & promising to annex the oil reserves for American oil companies.

Can’t afford groceries but I am sated by the thought that Chevron will finally be reunited with its long lost oil refineries

Trump and Rubio also threatening to topple the governments in Columbia and Cuba. Jesus fucking Christ.

"We're in the oil business" - Trump

Don’t worry everyone! The chud who got his start as a JAG lawyer inventing justifications for torture at Guantanamo Bay says this is legal 😮‍💨

Luckily, my New Year’s resolution was “Destabilize Venezuela.”

Don’t worry though, I’m sure the average Venezuelan will embrace the peace prize lady who was instrumental in getting the U.S. to bomb their Capitol city.

Trump’s going to award himself the $50 Million bounty on Maduro, isn’t he?

What is the end game here? Do they think Venezuela will just be like, “Okay chill thanks for bombing our military HQ and kidnapping our president?”

As the backlash to the invasion of Venezuela starts to build, expect Trump to criminalize opposition in the exact way Putin did for the invasion of Ukraine.

god damn america

Send everyone in this web of Trump lackeys and war profiteers to the Gulag as soon as humanly possible.

Every American should be ashamed of who we are and what we have become as a nation today. We have a long history of military misadventures and even crimes but the attacks we have been conducting on Venezuela are among the most wanton, egregious and least defensible acts we’ve ever conducted.

The military planned the attacks. The military presented plans to the president to approve. The military want to conduct the illegal war. The military are not our friends!

What are the fucking house & senate doing tonight?! This shit is all illegal as hell. Impeach the bastards by dawn and drag them out of the situation room by their ears!

Studies repeatedly show that white kids from wealthy families outperform on the SAT because they have greater access to private tutors and prep classes. Furthermore, the SAT has no bearing on whether a professor has expertise in their subject. This “merit act” is just a way to Regentrify academia.

This is an act of war and illegal under both US and international law, let’s just be clear about that:

We used to be a real country where down on their luck entrepreneurs would stop at nothing to steal your family’s big dumb dog

MIT’s NANDA initiative found that 95% of generative AI deployments fail after interviewing 150 execs, surveying 350 workers, and analyzing 300 projects. The real “productivity gains” seem to come from layoffs and squeezing more work from fewer people not AI.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

Any military leader who agrees with this should be charged with treason and receive dishonorable discharge from the armed forces. Wildly evil and wrong, and anyone espousing these ideas is unqualified to hold rank.

It’s either war with Venezuela, or he’ll say Pam Bondi’s dog ate the Epstein files

Damn they’re really out here arguing racism is the solution to racism

They are fucking accountable to congress!! The mostly democratically elected legislative body that wrote the laws establishing the agencies, you decrepit, disingenuous, lost cause, fascist fucklord!

Got that peace prize for you, boss. Four zombie arms holding up a saucy meatball, just like you asked.

A really big cat?

If Trump’s as rich as he says he is, then I think the next administration should sue to recoup all the wasteful spending under his admin directly from his personal finances. $500 million for ice/cbp raids, $850 million for Argentina bailout. Drain the fucker dry.

I hope wherever she is right now, Monica Lewinsky is laughing her ass off

Ice is buying Amazon warehouses to store all the people their kidnapping off the streets. Trump just pardoned all his pet insurrectionists. They openly threatened to starve the poorest Americans for political leverage. Yeah, let’s definitely give them more money.

I look forward to all the major newspapers telling us what a noble strategic move it is to fully fund Republican’s fascist takeover of the government in exchange for vague promises to make our health care system even more byzantine and expensive!

Say what you want about Chuck Schumer, but I bet you can’t name a single member of the senate more committed to getting kicked repeatedly in the balls by Republicans
