just listened to Kirsten Gillibrand imply that Zohran wants to murder all Jews and destroy Israel. like an order of magnitude more racist than anything George W. Bush ever said about Muslims

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

the bit about Africans being active in the slave trade is telling. it’s something that is only relevant if you think the point of discussing slavery is to disburse racial blame rather than understanding history.

ProPublica is undefeated as digging up the kind of evil usury that often goes unaired. "Dr Phil" and his son will never see heaven. www.propublica.org/article/mint...

There's an entire political platform to be founded based on just this headline

"You read books, eh?" A 1949 red scare Herblock cartoon about pressures on teachers that hits hard once again.

Disqualifying.

This is a love note to Jesus Luzardo, who just secured himself yet another quality start and a sub-2.0 ERA. Sure, the Phillies have bullpen problems, but Luzardo and the starters look sharp.

In case you're wondering what Elon's Twitter is like now, this one tweet covers a lot of the bases.

For anyone who needs some GOOD news, Nottoway Plantation—burial site of countless victims of the rape, maiming, and slaughter of the formerly enslaved but where white people love to brunch & get married—has burned to the ground. May the ancestors continue to rest peacefully. Amen.

"Doubles down on support for children"

Heard Tom Friedman explain Trump's plan in the Middle East as a series of steps including "selling arms to the stabilize the region," and I just don't... even want to be 🇺🇸 anymore.

Horrible crap buried in the 389 page behemoth Congress is trying to shove down our throats: blocking any state from regulating AI for the next decade. If you don’t want to bow down to tech bros in this way, get involved at fairshareusa.org www.techpolicy.press/us-house-com...

WelcomeFest: we hate the left more than we like winning

How could you not be impressed by a bird in your yard? This dude can fly anywhere and it came here to hang out with you

fellas is it gay to marry a woman?

Bernie Sanders is barnstorming the country in his 80s generating 30k+ events to rally against gangster capitalism while Democratic leadership twiddle their thumbs and shrug a bunch as the worst people in the country strip the wiring out the walls and conduct racist immigration purges

"There are abusers anywhere there's power" is so 🎯🎯🎯

Desperate teams signed Juan Soto or Roki Sasaki. The Phillies just said f’ it and gave Alec Bohm a bucket of SSRIs.

re the previous repost: if they can disappear permanent residents they can disappear citizens

Imagine your loved one DIES on a long-haul flight and the NYT writes it up as a story about the passengers next to her being really disgusted by her death.

Just finished the show and thought the same thing. The wellness scammers out there are deeply evil people, and this show (+ that 60 minutes interview) feels like a way of fighting back against the harmful bullshit.

What a team. What a city.

Can anyone explain why libs are THIS blown away by the Kendrick halftime show? It was great, but why is my mom hyperventilating about how it is an all-time work of art and how she did a "deep dive" into the layers upon layers of symbolism?

Good morning. Go Birds. Amen.

State government is where it's at. Not all states, mind you, but you can do more good at the state level almost everywhere.

The first Senators to actually do anything about the Trump admin

Anybody else noticing how many planets are visible? Finally decided to look it up tonight, and yep: there are a whole bunch visible right now. www.bbc.com/weather/arti...

The tyrannical beltway DemonRATs are trying to keep my grandmother's heat on again. When will we say enough is enough, fellow patriots? 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Just the <checks notes> Chair of the House Appropriations Committee going on the record to say that appropriations statutes “are not a law.” The United States Congress, ladies and gentlemen.

Bus drivers forever ✊️

This is the unfortunately foreseeable consequence of how far Congress has gone to empower the executive and completely neuter itself. Checks and balances disassembled from the inside out.

one day when this is all over — and it will be — i will personally never forget the people, famous or otherwise, who jumped on board with fascism because it was the easier thing to do at the time

I am going insane. This company will lose $10bn this year! Generative AI has peaked! There isn't a sustainable business model, and the products are mediocre and error prone and don't even do anything cool despite costing billions and accelerating climate change and stealing everybody's artwork!

I hope so, because - like getting all devices to use USB-C chargers - the only time we can have nice things is when Europe does the heavy lifting for us.

It's so funny how much political flak Philadelphia City Council members caught over the arena just for the Sixers to say, essentially, "Ha, jk!"

Keeping it healthy at my like... 9th Wisconsin Christmas with the in-laws.

Spotted at a local middle school. The kids are alright.

Good bumper sticker 👍
