this is one of the weirdest things conservative elites tell themselves and it's become load bearing to their entire anti anti Trump ideology

Delivery drivers have >100x the dog encounters that cops do and somehow donโ€™t shoot any. One of the more broken parts of our society is that any douchebro with a GED and a few months of training can kill anytime theyโ€™re scaredโ€ฆand Very Serious People justify it as if there couldnโ€™t be any other way

Mon Dieu. Versailles. Macron is trolling the grand ignoramus Donald Trump like no one has ever trolled him before. The only thing he could have done worse to Trump would have been to put Trump's name on the Compiรจgne Forest rail car and tricked him into signing it there.

Obama: "The Founders fell terribly short of the declaration's promise, leaving slavery in tact, allowing states to restrict the franchise to white men who owned property. But in drafting a constitution and bill or rights, they did have the foresight -- the genius -- to provide us with a framework."

โ€œIt does not meet my standards, and it wonโ€™t meet your standardsโ€ Idk, maybe you shouldโ€™ve just said it wasnโ€™t good enough and we are redoing it instead of going around blabbering about โ€œreleasing lessonsโ€ If you fumble something this simple, how can anybody trust you with real, complex strategy?

Republicans took nearly a decade to pass a fund for first responders who ran into the towers on 9/11, and almost twenty years to make it permanent. But they can conjure $1.776B over a weekend for reparations for rioters who tried to overthrow an election and beat cops, and wrap it all in patriotism

TAXPAYER SHAKEDOWN Trumpโ€™s bullshit slush fund is treating our money like his own private bank account, funding a new insurrectionist army. And donโ€™t overlook the other provision: the Internal Revenue Service would never again be allowed to audit Donald Trump, his sons, or the Trump Organization.

america's reactionaries would love nothing more to nullify the reconstruction amendments and render them a dead letter of the constitution. this was as true in 1873 as it is today.

i think it is a testament to the inherent radicalism of the reconstruction amendments that the supreme courtโ€™s main project with regards to them has been to limit and weaken their impact on american society.

"Democratic governors and state legislators need to realize that this is no longer about fairness; itโ€™s about fighting back so that they are not engineered out of the House forever. And I get that Dems donโ€™t have the stomach for this kind of warfare--- find it."

It's almost as if the conservative justices want to help the Republicans retain power through racist gerrymandering.

BREAKING: SCOTUS acts immediately on Alabama redistricting, vacating earlier decisions blocking the 2023 map and sending cases back to the district court โ€” over the objection of Sotomayor, joined by Kagan and Jackson. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

A bunch of white people in bad suits show up to dismantle a majority black district because racism is dead

WATCH: โ€œDoes this feel like the right thing to do? Are you ready to be on the wrong side of side of history?โ€ Tennessee Republicans generally remorseless about stripping representation from majority Black Memphis, drowning it out with white power to protect a corrupt president.

If racism is no longer a problem, then why are all the states rushing to redistrict after the Supreme Court ruling all in The South? And all the people pushing to redistrict all White? ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

A tomahawk missile costs the same as preschool for a year for 300 kids. The $25B price tag for the war in Iran could have funded a year of preschool for every 4 year old in America. But at least we got higher gas prices and an even more hardline regime out of it. America First.

Donald Trumpโ€™s broad economic and foreign-policy agenda is accelerating a โ€œbudgetary death spiralโ€ for many child-care programs, leaving parents in desperate straits, @ehaspel.bsky.social writes:
