Spending the night watching Starship Troopers for some 90s nostalgia. It couldn't portray the military any more cartoonish than it is under Hegseth today, if it tried.

After the midterms, dems should continue to have Obama give these shittalking rallies until trump strokes out in anger. Would perhaps be Obama’s greatest contribution to America.

Dem ads: you should have healthcare and this war is stupid GOP ads: James TalaFREAKO doesn’t even HATE TRANS PEOPLE and my opponent was RAPED AS A CHILD AND THAT’S GOOD

Fundamentally Neera is just like Sarah Longwell. She gets paid for this a lot of money just like Sarah. You'll notice they both always talk about data without having any self awareness or reflection to understand the ways in which they both manipulate data throughout the process of collecting it

At the end of the day there is really only one way to describe Donald Trump: A whiny little bitch, the sorest looser in the history of the world.

I will not stoop to their level. I will not stoop to their level. I will not denigrate this woman based on her immutable characteristics, speaking style, or apparent illiteracy. I will not stoop to their level...

😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

Trump's Klan rallies have always been nothing but a white trash WWE episode, except with somehow fewer teeth and even lower IQs.

holy shit -- a protester at the Trump rally gets physically assaulted after they interrupt the rally by a man who punches her in the face. Trump smears the protester as a "fat guy"

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

Dems really living down to expectations

SC Dem Senate nominee Annie Andrews released an ad calling trans women "biological men." She embraces sports and surgery bans for youth. Her campaign even says she won't work to overturn the HRT/blocker trans youth ban. She once argued against capitulation. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I am beginning to realize that zionists in NYC would rather have a mayor that does absolutely nothing for NYers so long as Israel is praised and receives all the funds they need. Because when you look at Mamdani’s moves for the city right now how do you boo and hate?!?

Promo clip. Beatriz Villarroel believes that Sagan's mantra that "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence" is damaging science. However, scientists are rightly initially sceptical of paradigm shifting ideas that upend established science. Link: youtube.com/shorts/hcvk7... ⚛️🧪

The country was for sale, and the stupids happily voted to make him rich to "own the libs" or something.

Trump’s personal wealth has ballooned by more than 165% since his 2nd inauguration, reaching an estimated $6.3 billion. No American president in the 250-yr history of the office has ever converted the job itself into personal income at this scale. aaronparnas.substack.com/p/major-deep...

I am outraged that our government is giving Israel nearly $3 billion in bombs to kill Palestinian children. We need to put the needs of working families and Americans first.

I care about some Bronze Age fairy tale creature's sexuality about as much as I care about the Tooth Fairy's sexuality. Can we please pivot to a topic that actually affects people?

🤔Yikes— Trump’s guy Witkoff (+ Kushner) bending the knee in Russia: “President Putin, thank you so much for having us… We were sitting outside talking about when we retire how we’ll have all these incredible memories, and yours will be right at the top.”😍🤷🏼
