Everyone is dunking on Jennifer Welch for saying that Joe Biden paved the way to fascism, but I would like to dunk on her for pontificating about the Jan 6 Capitol attack and how one must be "crystal clear about what happened", while having done no homework and having understood nothing.
Why the road to American fascism was paved by Joe Biden and the Democratic Party.

A 2025 Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, Omar Yaghi is the son of Palestinian refugees who grew up in Jordan. He just left the US to move to China after raising concerns about rising anti-immigrant sentiment, like the kind shown here. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/china-than...
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

i know that this happens so often it is an easy target for jokes and ridicule but seriously how does this happen so often
I dont know if it's because they love republicans and want them to win but holy crap is this an embarrassment. the equivalent of reckless disregard in terms of journalism fuck ups. Just the simplest damn googling.

bluntly this is also what destroyed LBJ and led to the nixon landslide, yes vietnam also mattered and was probably #1, but the white working class was infuriated that black folks would also benefit from the great society programs
The “something” in question was the workers themselves deciding by 1966 that they no longer wanted New Dealer welfare capitalism if it meant black Americans would benefit from it while anti-war protesters were free to burn the flag

Flávio Bolsonaro had his passport confiscated by the Brazilian fed police as his brother Eduardo told him to flee to the US. He is tied to paramilitary gangs, is being investigated & lost his legislative immunity when he left the Senate to run for president. paydayreport.com/brazilian-fe...

Just to make this concrete: if I picked a grain of sand somewhere on the earth’s surface, and you went to a random location on the planet with a pair of tweezers and by sheer luck picked up that very grain of sand first try, that would be MORE statistically likely than Trump not being a rapist.

This shit is so pitiful because you know Bessent would never normally enter a chain restaurant
You really need to work hard to be the most obsequious member of Trump’s cabinet — by, for instance, eating lunch at Cheesecake Factory and alerting Fox Business, so they can interview you in defense of Obama’s joke about the White House decor. Well done Secretary Bessent! Your move, Doug Burgum!

Also in regard to the post by OP, if you're looking at the 2026 Democratic Party and seeing a bunch of centrists scared of their own shadows you need your goddamn head examined.

Now their descendants refuse to believe their beloved family members could really be racist enough to immiserate the country, the entire planet, just to hurt black people worse. No, it's just rich people brainwashing, no way gutter bigotry is grandma's bedrock politics bsky.app/profile/mc-h...
A load bearing mythos of pop leftism is that the Dems used to be good and for the working man and then embraced neoliberalism so the working man got sold out, instead of "white America as a whole turned on the Dems after the Civil Rights Act and began tearing down their own commons and prosperity"

The vile attacks on Amy Acton need to be seen in the context of a party that *needs* people to believe women fabricating sexual assaults is common as rainwater. Because it’s pretty much the only way to evade the conclusion that the president is a rapist.
Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

1/ There's been a lot of chatter about rebuilding state capacity to make housing affordable, healthcare universal, and the economy fairer for all. We need to do the same in the realm of national security and defense. This seems to be the last place we need more public investment but hear me out 🧵:

Yeah, and as a part of that tantrum, say that tinpot dictator, hypothetically, cancelled tons of clean energy research and projects that would make us less reliant on fluctuating gas prices....

Every accusation is of course an admission In fact, Bolsanaro allies did intimidate voters and just stopped public transport in cities so the poor masses leaning Lula have a hard time reaching voting stations At the same time, US oligarch Zuckerberg used Meta to throttle Lula and promote Bolsanaro
After a stunning election victory for President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in Brazil, U.S. right-wingers are falling back on an old favorite: baseless claims that the contest was rigged. www.ms.now/news/flavio-...
These people are insane.
HHS wants a new Medicare code that pays doctors extra only when they attribute a patient’s symptoms to a vaccine. Vaccine critics say doctors are paid to push vaccines. We aren’t. Under this code, we’d be paid to blame them. My new piece in @cidrap.bsky.social: www.cidrap.umn.edu/childhood-va...

America is currently on the soft side of The Baddies in Ukraine, which sucks so much and as an American, embarrasses me to my core Luckily, we have an election in like 8 days, and another one in 2 years and between the two we can turn this ship around, even if we cant undo the damage
According to Zelenskyy, for nearly a month Pete Hegseth has not been signing off on the delivery of vital Patriot and NASAMS interceptor missiles for Ukraine that European allies have already paid for. Here is a video of Hegseth cynically wishing Ukraine “success” a week ago:

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

Proof Obama knows what he's talking about wrt Cheesecake Factory.
My friend Nicolette was at the POS computer and I wandered up to say hi. She said "turn around." Behind me were Malia and Sasha Obama and their grandmother Marian Robinson and some USSS officers trying to look inconspicuous. That was not the first and only time they visited.
