there are a lot of reasons to want schumer out. but even if this is not a major issue for you, claiming that your role as leader during a fascist putsch is to preserve a policy favored by the fascist and opposed by your party's voters is disqualifying. schumer cannot continue to lead the democrats

Thirty-five million dollars were spent marketing this! It is like someone eating spoonfuls of gold-encrusted garbage and beckoning you to watch. Look at how much gold I’ve put on it! More gold than anyone! Doesn’t it look delicious?

In between all the fascism, it's also a MASSIVE crime wave.

I'm sure they're purposefully putting sick kids in there and giving them no access to medical attention to kill them. This is the eugenics nazi shit no one is willing to fathom. Can't keep paying for this. Sorry man you gotta put the brakes on everything. We can't allow our tax money to go to this

What if all of us (who play games) committed to taking the time tomorrow (Sunday) to write a review of a game (or more) we particularly enjoyed, on a store (Steam...)? Even a short one. That could help.🫡 We could even collect them all in a big thread on Bsky, so we can discover recommendations.

This shit hits like a sledgehammer right now. It's not even remotely an exaggeration.

joe biden and merrick garland helped cover up the rape of children to make sure neither trump or any of the men financing his fascist movement suffered any consequences they are both fully responsible for what's happening now

Please CHRIST look at the UK; Starmer’s Labour didn’t win the last election; the Conservatives lost it. The thing to do is to *BURN AWAY* Schumer, Jeffries et al through direct action, protests, primaries. You and I are in charge (sorry! but also: congrats!) Catch up with us, Dems, or be retired.

This photo made me understand class in America in a way that I was unable to process before seeing it. The rich enjoy class solidarity on a level that is unimaginable to most people.

Several strategically placed activists appeared at an event in Suozzi’s district Tuesday night, wielding a diaper, kneepads, and some harsh words for the Long Island Democrat. trib.al/2lOGStr

some are pointing out the “as required by US law” part of this statement. Yes. I’d also highlight how this statement shows incredible naivety, bordering on stupidity, about Netanyahu and the Israeli right. They were never our friends! They hate US liberals! That was a core Biden error.

Genuinely astounded how it is turning out Joe Biden might be the only person in American politics not in the Epstein files while also being in the position to release them and prove almost all of his political opponents are criminal pedophiles and he decided to just not do that

Garland wasn’t a mistake. Biden did not want the Trump Admin prosecuted. He picked an AG who said he wouldn’t

The thing that shocks me most is that all of this incriminating stuff was sitting at the DOJ for 4 years and Biden & Garland were not cynical or ruthless enough to use it against Trump & Musk in the run up to 2024. If only they were the evil ‘weaponizers of government’ that MAGA claimed they were!

Years ago, a friend asked me why billionaires want MORE money when they could never spend the tiniest fraction of what they have. My answer is that they want immunity. The immunity to do literally any horrific they want without consequence. Nothing I've seen since has changed my mind.

I wonder if the New York Times will go after any of the prominent academics in the Epstein files for being rapists as hard as they went after Claudine Gay for being kind of sloppy with citations in her graduate thesis. If not, why not?

It was so fucking exciting when a former professional community organizer got elected in part by organizing an army of volunteers, and then just completely turned his back on the concept. But I'm sure The Barack Obama Library, Gift Shop, And Community Organizing Training Center will open any day.

A Minneapolis knitting shop has resurrected the design of a Norwegian cap worn to protest Nazi occupation. Its owner says the money raised from hat pattern sales will support the local immigrant community. n.pr/4thWiUr

The Biden DOJ just sat on all this??

Think about the fact that Democrats warned us about 2nd term Trump as a democracy threatening event, were staring at abysmal internal polling, and decided to sit on all of this Epstein shit. You cannot make sense of any of this unless theyre all in on it

Republican Senator X voted against lowering your health insurance costs and instead gave 75 billion MORE dollars to ICE there you go democrat hopefuls, i better see this on every TV and in every mailbox this fall

There's no point in posting the indisputible take that Best in Show was Catherine O'Hara's finest performance because, by definition, Best in Show is the career high point of every single person who was involved in Best in Show.

I really want people to check in with the organizations that have been pushing back on surveillance for 10+ years. Just to be blunt, there are a lot of folks who realized yesterday that surveillance is bad and many are suggesting well-intentioned but misguided strategies for fighting it talk to us

I somehow? just learned The Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond, inherited wealth/land from ancestors who scammed and killed Osage for their resources and money. Killers of the Flower Moon is about that exact thing btw. Thank you @lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com and @murderxbryan.bsky.social (bc of Guys)!

The government arbitrarily arresting a journalist for charges so faulty even a judge literally can't determine what they even are is pretty much at the top of the list of things you immediately shut as much of the government as you can down over instantly. What on earth are Democrats doing here

I sometimes wish the Democratic Party in Congress consisted of any 260 people in the Minneapolis telephone directory rather than the 260 dignitaries now representing us.

"If we have to hunt you down, the way they hunted down Nazis for decades, we will find your identities. We will find you. We will achieve justice. And we will do so under the Constitution and laws of the United States." www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ft1...

Is it really too much to ask for elected Democrats and staffers to have a burning hate for Republicans and an all-consuming drive to fix the country? I’m tired of all these wonks and privileged bozos who see politics as a hobby not an existential fight.

What makes Gavin Newsom such a skilled politician is that he stands up to Trump’s bullying with piping hot memes AND is able to agree with Trump about policy www.sacbee.com

Republicans are literally killing us and Democrats like @gluesenkampperez.house.gov are helping them

THIS is the last straw!!!

Obama being best positioned to coordinate opposition to this administration (particular in civil society smoke filled rooms) but instead opting to lob pronouncements from Olympus like Jupiter but only for those pronouncements to be podcast recs is so insanely Barrycoded

On the Dems in the 2024 election. It seems obvious that the whole reason they sucked up to the Cheneys and dicked off e.g. people horrified by the genocide was because they intended to win without the left, and then get rid of all of the purple-haired, placard-waving, variously-gendered malcontents.

a lot of Democratic officials have asked the protesters to be careful to not "give Trump what he wants" and I think it's fair to ask them to do likewise

Alex Pretti was a Catholic. ICE killed our martyred brother. His final act on this earth was helping a woman struck down by Trump-Vance border agents. We will not let him die in vain. ICE must go. No Catholic can allow this to stand.

EVER CHANGING PURITY TEST 2008: Austerity will cause fascism. EVER CHANGING PURITY TEST 2009: Austerity will cause fascism. EVER CHANGING PURITY TEST 2010: Austerity is causing fascism. [...] EVER CHANGING PURITY TEST 2026: Austerity has caused fascism.

From @status.news in their review and comment on Bari Weiss after her meeting with all hands today: "installed by Ellison not primarily to strengthen their journalism... but to steer CBS News into waters more favorable to Donald Trump and the MAGA movement." That's pretty much how I view it.

I think one of the things I'm angriest about re Pretti's murder and the response is that he didn't need to die if only eg Jeffries and Schumer had decided to start fighting when this dumbfuck brutal plan was announced

"I'm gonna give Homan the benefit of the doubt" "They should coordinate with local law enforcement, pick these people up in the middle of the night when they're not suspecting it" Walz is capitulating to fascists and encouraging night raids. Genuinely disgusting. Why would anyone settle for this?

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him. “When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

I'm glad the worst people on earth are on their back foot today but until the two murderers are arrested and prosecuted this is all fluff

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives. We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

There needs to be several reckonings concerning Vermeule. One, we have never reckoned with the pro-torture voices from after 9/11. Two, we need to have reckoning with Harvard Law. Three, as Catholics, we need to have reckoning with the strains of Catholicism that have led

new york magazine has a very nasty article out about my beautiful golden throne, which they say is the only thing keeping me alive. when I'm sitting on my big beautiful throne I am NOT ASLEEP!! I am directing the beacon of the astronomican, something sleepy joe did very badly may I add

Hey westerners, especially the ones in the United States of America, The imperial boomerang is real. Whatever you let your governments do to Black and Brown people in nonwestern countries, they will eventually do to you too. You can't vote it away, or sit it out. It will come back to you!

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

You voted for this. You wanted this. You are just acting surprised at what you are pretending are unintended consequences which many other people foresaw.
