When you had the advantage of family wealth & the best schools but were addled by heroin during classes on the origin of our alphabet, of our numbering system AND of algebra & trigonometry; major advances in shipbuilding (mortise and tenon joints, use of cedar, etc.), etc., etc.

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."

Absolutely

Introverts are often alone but rarely lonely. We can spend entire days by ourselves without getting bored or feeling like we’re missing out on anything. We enjoy our own company and don’t need to constantly be around people to feel happy or fulfilled

Losing Orban and Vucic is a blow to Putin. Let's hope a big setback to his most important Western ally (Trump and MAGA) is in the cards for next week.

Gaslighting 101: The AG is literally calling us crazy for thinking Trump will use the levers of government power to overturn the results of an election, when he has a documented history of doing just that. That’s tyranny.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6-- BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy BASH: This is a president who has a history

Republicans endanger children. This is one example but let's take a look at what's happening to children in #ICE detention. They are being denied medical attention, as well as healthy food & water. They are experiencing mental illness because they're being tortured. Vote blue & Vote early!

WELKER: If you were elected, would you vote to repeal some of President Trump's tariffs? MIKE ROGERS: The best way to do this is to talk in and say, 'Can we work this out?' I'm not even in office yet. (That's a no!)

I keep seeing posts from Republicans pretending to be insulted by Barack Obama's Cheesecake Factory quip because most Americans supposedly think it serves haute cuisine. First, it does not. And you know that. Second, his remark wasn't about the food. It was about the over-the-top golden decor.

Yes, Daughters of the American Revolution is notorious for its inclusiveness, especially in the 1920s. Eleanor Roosevelt even quit over their racism. So cool observation, bigot.

Elon Musk is spending $445M+ to buy the midterms for one very simple reason. He's terrified that a Democratic Congress might finally hold him accountable.

Well, well, well…. An analysis of voter registration records reveals Republican operative Scott Presler had 3 out-of-state voters use his Pennsylvania address to vote in the 2024 election. This is what voter fraud looks like.

HOW MANY MILITARY FAMILIES HAVE TO GET SICK BEFORE HEGSETH ACTS? Our troops should be defending this country, not fighting for the right to live in homes that won’t make their families sick. #SupportTheTroops

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

This is why you will need national legislation. And more coherent legislation rather than one-time levies. But state efforts are critical because they put the topic into the conversation. And generally 'neener neener' isn't good messaging from the billionaire class.

Blaming “DEI” is a lazy culture war statement and does nothing to fix the fact that schools have significant funding issues. McMahon should be ashamed of herself that she’s in a position to help schools and she’s chosen narrative warfare with no results instead.

A reminder that the “trans lobby” is just trans people going about their lives, and the “fight” being referred to is JK Rowling using her money, power and influence to endorse policy that is killing trans people. I’m amazed she could move to type a new essay with the layers of blood on her hands.

He fucking confessed to it so what kind of fucking investigation needs to happen exactly

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) demands an investigation to establish whether Elon Musk or Donald Trump ordered the sabotage of Ukraine’s Starshield communications, warning that allowing Musk to dictate US foreign policy puts the country at enormous risk.

“I told you once that I was searching for the nature of evil. I think I’ve come close to defining it: a lack of empathy.... Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.” — Dr. Gustave Gilbert, U.S. Military Chief Psychologist in the Nuremberg Trials, Nuremberg Diary
