When I was a kid, you’d see billboards every couple of miles advertising South of the Border and my folks would never stop. First road trip as an adult that I could, we stopped. I saw why my parents never did.

Any politician who’s willing to throw away one group’s rights is willing to throw away everyone’s rights. It’s that simple. Every single consultant, pundit and candidate who’s shown a willingness to abandon trans rights needs to be shunned from the party forever

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

Dude just ret-conning on the fly

Trump on the Reflecting Pool: "It's the longest swimming pool in history. And it always leaked. And we had tremendous vandalism. And we had it pretty well, but we're gonna undo it anyway because we had to do the pipes. We wanted to get it done for July 4 temporarily."

Hi, I’m Chloe, I’m a squishy human person who’s been around for donkey’s years, and this is my artwork. I sell it online because this is the path of least resistance currently. Here are ten recent pictures all of which are currently for sale through my website. www.chloecumming.com

Hey, centrists, you can show that “vote blue no matter who” actually means something to you. So often we’ve been told to “hold our noses and vote for the D”. We expect the same in return because instead of a progressive future we’ll be stuck with a regressive, corrupt present

I've been called a doomer, a wrecker, irresponsible, more times than I can count. All I wanted was a Democratic party that could fight back and punch hard and not hurt the people I report on every day.

There are tons of things I SHOULD search for first, but an old Lonsdale Mohammed Ali shirt is the first thing that comes to mind.

If someone gave u a box 📦 that contained everything you have lost in your life, what’s the first thing u would search for?

As a yank, this combo of headlines hits a bit different. Note to self: BRITISH BROADCASTING COMPANY

Every concession we have ever made to these awful people has only encouraged them to get worse and demand more

It only took them a decade of MAGA to formulate an answer to the GOPs racism problem. It’s not a good answer and doesn’t provide any separation for them, but they are finally acknowledging the white hoods in their midst.

JD Vance makes excuses for white nationalists: "When you demonize a guy because he's white, it's just as evil as when you demonize a guy because he's Black. When you demonize a guy because he's white ... some people will get radicalized into some very dangerous ideas."

Don't blame Katie Z for her record-setting flameout in a job for which she was utterly unqualified. (If someone put a monkey at the controls of an airliner, you can't really blame the monkey for the ensuing disaster. He's doing the best he can. Blame the guy who put him at the controls.)

Let's go, Sam Forstag! That's how you stand up for trans people on the national stage. If congressional candidates in western Montana—one of the most competitive House races in the entire country—can stand up for trans folks in every aspect of our lives, democrats everywhere should take note.

Scenes from today’s adventure gravel ride. It’s cranberry harvesting season on Cape Cod. From first hand experience, cranberries plucked fresh from the bog are not great.

I don’t ask for much from this life: just the opportunity to ride bikes and that dear leader kicks it on live television. Whether his diaper explodes when he falls over or not is just details.

In a new Truth Social post, Trump explains why he should have received the Nobel Peace Prize—writing entirely in the voice of a man being forcibly removed from a Cheesecake Factory. Really unbecoming of a FIFA Peace Prize laureate.

I too define things based on completely unrelated things. For example: traffic to me personally is the position of mars in the night sky relative to the download pre-sales of GTA6

Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports
