Im glad I saved this before deactivating my twitter and losing my discord where I had posted it

Three moments broke Trump 2.0: 1) Kimmel and other attempted censorship after Charlie Kirk. Made public see the attack on speech. 2) Minnesota anti-ICE protests, Goode and Pretti killings. Made public see the attack on rights. 3) Iran war. Made public see bad foreign policy affects them directly.

I also think this is a very powerful graph. Most people don't know it, but the US is a *very* low-tax country. We tax below average and we spend below average, among rich nations. Fixing our fiscal situation entirely through taxes would still leave us *very* low tax. bsky.app/profile/bren...

i really do think that a successful impeachment and removal of hegseth is a live possibility if dems win the senate. he is a genuine disaster.

does the media ever—ever—ask republicans to disavow this open white supremacist?

Kreia: BORED *spins in the co-pilot chair* are we there yet? Atton: no. Kreia: euughhhggh. do you have games on your- ACK *sits bolt upright as the Exile enters the cockpit* Exile: how much longer to Nar Shadda? Kreia: Such impatience. Do not rush to meet destiny, or you will do so unprepared

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.

JOINT STATEMENT OF THE FOREIGN MINISTERS OF CANADA, DENMARK, GERMANY, FRANCE, ITALY, JAPAN, THE NETHERLANDS, UNITED KINGDOM "As committed supporters of the ICC we regret and strongly disagree with the announcement of sanctions to be imposed upon the Court by the United States."

Horrifying: Arizona Democratic congressional candidate Bernadette Greene-Placentia was raped by a man after he knocked her out. Another man approached her to do the same. “She began swinging her foot at him. ‘Not even worth it,’ she heard the man say as he moved away.”

not that you should expect anything more than rank idiocy from this pair of racists, but the idea that whiteness means a "high trust" society of "social cohesion" is some of the stupidest shit i have ever heard. these people live in a fantasy land that you could dispel by simply opening a book.

Gavin Newsom will never be President but at least he made the world quantifiably worse for everyone while under the delusion he might have a shot at it

“If you are staring at an example of social disorder or social inefficiency, and the left refuses to explain either why it has happened or how they will fix it, then the right gets to point at someone in the immediate area and say, ‘That’s who did it.’” crazy how much Mamdani speaks my language

The whole speech is good, but this part in particular is particularly relevant now. www.trumanlibrary.gov/library/publ...

Hank, please please please please please tell me what the heck you said on the September 14th episode of Delete This at 24:15. All I can hear is “nature has been read in do then claw the whole time”, and the auto-transcription isn’t any better. I can’t figure out what it’s supposed to be. #piples

I feel like we are so used to living in a time of madness that we can't grasp just how insane the Kennedy Center dispute is. Trump took something that was running just fine and destroyed it because he couldn't put his name next to the murdered president whose memorial it is. That's completely nuts.

BREAKING: SCOTUS denies the Trump administration’s request to enforce the new U.S. Postal Service rule for the 2026 elections. Justices Alito and Thomas dissent. More to come at Law Dork. www.lawdork.com

this guy is one of the architects of a war that might rank as one of the worst strategic missteps in american military history and here is on CBS getting a softball interview about his feelings

Just did a quick look around and I don't see very many headlines about the President of the US making people pledge allegiance to him personally while telling everyone to commit election fraud and "cheat like hell" to support his party. Seems like it should be a story?

I was proud to begin this day of remembrance alongside FDNY Commissioner Bonsignore by laying a wreath at the foot of the Firemen’s Memorial. For more than a century, this monument has honored the heroes who risk their lives to keep us safe.

25 years ago, terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people, including 2,753 New Yorkers. As we remember that terrible day, let us also remember the first responders, office workers and strangers who ran toward danger to help each other.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz: “The word "remigration" is nothing other than a synonym for ethnic cleansing based on origin and skin color.”

yes! my somewhat cranky, marxian complaint about the way people talk about slavery is that it is treated as a single, stable system when it is dynamic and changes quite radically from 1790 to 1820 or so.

For the 2nd time against an Ed Markey primary opponent.

So funny watching the media try to write 2000's era Grand Theft Auto Outrage articles now that the whole country is a casino run by murderers.

Man, shit like this is genuinely hurting my soul. youtu.be/N5YDkQ6oFcE

One thing Woke 2.0 needs to do is completely erase and replace every doctrine of standing we have. The entire field is corrupted with politicized nonsense. None of the existing judicial output can be trusted nor used to create new doctrines that are consistent and appropriate.

you see, no one has standing when it comes time to sue the president because he is a very special birthday boy

Some of the discourse on USAID has reminded me of this.

It’s extremely funny that the basically replacement-level elderly Markey has become the career annihilator for two tryhard wannabe-president dipshits now

Was walking past this building and through the window saw this backrooms-ass room, so I accidentally took the coolest picture ever due to the window's reflection

not that anything matters anymore but the province is named after the lake

@editorialboard.bsky.social had me at the 3 actions the Democrats need to make saving Democracy the path forward. Not a supermajority. Just enough to: - Off the fillibuster - Expand the Supreme Court (illegitimate, BTW) - Create 2 new states. (DC? PR?) (Guv DW) www.offmessage.net/p/democrats-...

i genuinely think that the way this admin is treating Canada will be looked back on as of the most shameful chapters of modern US history far too many people are laughing it off as unserious but the reality is that they’re spitting in the face of our closest ally for no reason

I proudly endorse this message from my grandparents ❤️

Someone who has been here since he was three years old is an American. I don't give a shit about paperwork. And obviously, no one of any nationality should die this way, but I must point out the absurdity of this fascist blood-and-soil rhetoric that our immigrant neighbors are "unassimiliated."

they welcomed it in as a curiosity and it destroyed them

excited to find out what new derangements a president aoc could create

Insane new research. Scientists gave asthma patients free electric stoves to replace their gas stoves, then checked to see if symptoms improved. Not only did symptoms improve, ditching gas was *better than medicine.* Details in today's newsletter: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/electric-s...

Cheers, Gabe

finally catching up and watching andor season 2 and “Who Else Knows” has to be one of the most stressful episodes of television i have watched in a minute

Trump curse strikes again

The only team not to lose to Spain at the World Cup? Cape Verde.

Congrats to Spain for winning custody of Hatsune Miku
