"Chief Justice Roberts, can you please settle an argument that my friend and I have been having about you?
"My friend says you're a partisan hack who's forged disastrous rulings in order to help conservatives win victories they never could through elections.
"Me? I just think you're a sociopath."
Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video.
“It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?”
This lady’s response is🔥
I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...
Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."
This is why I've started to respond to Democratic fundraising Emails with a screenshot of the Onion "'You can't let this happen' says fundraising EMail from sitting Democratic Congressperson" headline.
Five years ago today, the United States Capitol was attacked in a violent insurrection incited by the President of the United States for one purpose: to overturn a free and fair election and cling to power in clear violation of the Constitution.
Every one running a primary challenge against one of the worthless corrupt democrats currently in Congress needs to make this a centerpiece of their campaign strategy. Don’t waste all your time attacking, use a “sewer socialist” style campaign like Mamdani with POLICY proposals.
This is a dangerously stupid take. THEY VOTED FOR HIM. Voting for a politician is how a citizenry expresses fandom. The endless search by “centrist” liberals for reasons for their fecklessness is infuriating and exhausting. The bots were just a tool, like direct mail was for the Reaganites.
Trump never had a fan base.
He had an army of bots who sold his racism and misogyny and xenophobia to uneducated Americans who took voting advice from bald eagle profiles posting Tweets from Eastern Europe.
It’s as stupid as it sounds.
That the Trump White House and POTUS allies like Vivek Ramaswamy are now trying to sound more like Mamdani just highlights how much socialist candidates like him are the answer to Trumpism Democrats have been looking for.
He stood by trans folks and immigrants, still won young men, and GOP blinked.
My mom and stepdad are from the same diaspora group as Zohran Mamdani’s dad (same like “my stepdad was kicked out of the same town and knows some of his classmates”) and apparently the New York Times doesn’t understand how diaspora works, so I am going to tell you a little about my mom’s people!
they don't have the cover of "oh, I just don't know if Bernie would do well in the general". this is just the pure stuff. the Dem leadership hates the young left and liberal people in their party, and would rather burn down the country than give an inch of ground to them
Stellan Skarsgård has provided many great performances, but Luthen Rael is one of the best characters created for a TV series this century so far. That he was surrounded by so many other great characters and performances only elevates the accomplishment.
This is from The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson aired on May 20th, 1977.
Carl Sagan says something very important, a strong message that didn't lose any validity since then.
Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…
Sean Duffy: "The truth is, transit across America is dangerous. And these liberals -- liberal mayors -- they want everybody out of cars and into trains but they made the trains unsafe so nobody really wants to ride them ... even big men don't want to ride the subway at those times of night."
As per usual Blue MAGA centrists are louder and more concerned about Bernie & AOC’s tour than the actual fascists. Vichy feels threatened that getting access to the money & scraps from the corporate table is in danger of being taken away by a resurgence on the left.
I want the media and democrats to stop calling the fascist bloc dragging us backwards “conservatives.” Reactionary republicans are not seeking to “conserve” anything. They are an unhinged mob driven rabid by advances in civil and human rights trying to force us all into subjugation to their cult.
Instead of separating the art from the artist, you could simply accept the fact that artists are by their very nature confused and contradictory weird little guys who are often using their own work to find some answers to the internal conflicts they’ve been struggling with all their lives.
Donald Trump is a racist and his best boy Pete Hegseth is even worse. This story is enraging but I’m proud of the veterans that weren’t having this bullshit. www.cbsnews.com/news/concert...
Forrest Gump feels like a right-wing take on the 1960's. It seems to go out of its way to make hippies and Black Panthers look like bad guys, for instance. There are other examples, no room to unpack here. I left the theater feeling like Rush Limbaugh had script approval.
VERY few agree with me.

CHUCK SCHUMER: [on phone] I don’t know who you are or what you want, but I will find you and I will help you kill my daughter
