Sen. Roger Marshall MD skipped over the "no" in the first part of the Hippocratic Oath. Vote Adam Hamilton for US Senate from KS!

Dear Fates, I understand my original request of "80+ year old" wasn't specific, and that "80+ year old and male" somehow wasn't specific enough. But when I added "head of state" to the request, I really thought we had an understanding.

#BREAKING 🚨 Norway's King Harald V has died at the age of 89 Harald had been in hospital for more than a week in a "very serious" condition

This man lacks no integrity and likely agrees with what Cofnas did. Cofnas didn't engage in the academic process. He instead went after someone on a Substack and engaged in public advocacy. That the soil isn't settled on Arday's grave before releasing this...fucking disgusting human being.

This is the first open letter I've signed. I encourage all academics who still care about higher ed's credibility to do it. We're at a crossroads: if we can't uphold academic freedom even for those whose views are despicable, we won't agree on anything else. johnarmstrongmaths.com/openletters/...

Win or lose, the fact that Hamilton has this election this close is big. If he pulls it off, he'll be the first Democrat elected Senator from Kansas since 1932...the longest Republican senatorial streak in the nation.

kwch.comKansas Senate race tightens as Hamilton, Marshall trade attacksAdam Hamilton is challenging incumbent U.S. Senator Roger Marshall, and early polling suggests the race could be close.

By his reasoning, if I own property in New York and property in Florida, even if I live in New York 2 months out of the year, I should *have* to vote there. Apply the reasoning of college students to any other situation for people who live in two different states. How much sense does it make then?

Well, that's a new one. "College kids should be able to vote to overcome the wishes of the people who actually live in the place where they go to school"

There’s a literal verse about not praying in public. Christians don’t know their own beliefs.

Right Wing Watch @rightwingwatch.bsky.social

Rep. Lauren Boebert insists that public Christian worship events are necessary for America to experience revival: "I don't think that Jesus ever called for any Christian to pray only silently or to keep their faith hidden only in the prayer closet."

Elon Musk trying to sink a Christopher Nolan movie was honestly the funniest and dumbest course of action he could have taken. He’s one of the most popular filmmakers alive and now it proves Elon and his fanboys have no real cultural impact outside of X

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Far right: -Install Trump as king -Deport millions of Black and brown people -Enact white Christian nationalism Far left: -Healthcare, education, food, water, & shelter are human rights -Tax billionaires -Demand separation of religion & state Centrists: Both are bad but the far left is far worse!

Grimly amusing Dem machines think they deserve some sort of entitlement hierarchy. My entire life, everything has been moving backwards, politically, democratically, bureaucratically, judicially. You are all failures. You are presumptively part of the rot that must be removed down to the root.

Taniel@taniel.bsky.social

A lot of discourse since Tuesday hinges on idea that some politicians are owed a seat, it’s their turn & it’s problematic to not back them. & that’s so odd to me β€” because not only you have to wait for 88-year olds to deign to retire, but then there’s someone else waiting who’s owed & you can’t run?

Whenever I hear someone claiming that USAID was evil from a leftist perspective, I hear someone saying β€œyes, millions ARE dying because Musk and Trump killed USAID, but at least they’ll die free of American imperialism.” Notably it is never the people saying this who are dying.

this is pretty resounding indictment of the democratic establishment. from endorsing Cuomo to voting to confirm Trump nominees to tons of aid to Israel, people are fed up and I can’t blame them. My question is if this is a high water mark or the beginning of something brand new

If your 80-year-old grandpa was insisting that the reason the backyard pool has algae in it is because terrorists are trying to make him look bad and demanding the police arrest somebody, you'd put him in a senior care facility before the end of the day.

This is the new mantra of the right. Being a racist isn't bad. But calling someone a racist is bad.

Dr Oz: "You're not allowed to complain about Somalians, because that's racist. And the worst thing you can be in Minnesota is a racist."

Man looks like a lazy-eyed state puff marshmallow man. He really shouldn’t be commenting on people’s appearance.

Todd Starnes says that if he were to moderate a debate for the Texas Senate race, he'd have one question for James Talarico: "Have you now, as a 37-year-old man, finally come to terms with your manhood? Or, do you sir, perhaps have an affinity for frilly underpants? What's up with that?"

Mayor @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social’s plan to build 200,000 new homes, protect tenants, and invest in public housing will make this a more affordable city for New Yorkers. In Congress, I’ll be a strong partner for the resources to bring this vision to life. (1/2)
