BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — Serbia’s strongman leader Aleksandar Vucic has conceded defeat to a student-led movement in a seismic political shift.

More shocking displays by Bolsonaro supporters in the last 24 hours: voters wearing T-shirts that say “long live fascism,” doing a Nazi salute when entering the polls, and a white man walking a Black man on a chain at a pro-Bolsonaro gathering in Rio de Janeiro.

I hope the next President holds a special, elaborate, televised ceremony to symbolically renounce any claim to Greenland and to formally apologize for Trump’s embarrassing behavior - just to enrage him, in the event he is still purloining oxygen.

Trump says NATO was "nice enough to give us Greenland. We got Greenland."

Any president who goes to China to map out how much of the globe to surrender to China and Russia should simply never come home. Stay where you belong

Once again. Just like the Paramount Merger Gavin Newsom does what he always does. Sells out the working class people for the billionaires again and again. Not only that but endorses a bill that will make it impossible to tax the wealthy at all. www.commondreams.org/news/newsom-...

Synagogues all over your country are being attacked by right-wing Orthodox youth, prime minister, including a Reform shul during Rosh Hashanah services. Maybe you should focus more on protecting Jews where you’re in charge. www.timesofisrael.com/three-minors...

During his speech at the U.N., Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Mayor Zohran Mamdani of endangering Jewish New Yorkers with his criticism of Israel's military actions in Gaza. Mamdani said "Netanyahu used his speech to repeat baseless lies." Read more: http://specne.ws/9Sg8gA

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

i mean, just look at how the populists talked about the railroad barons and others like them. "The fruits of the toil of millions are boldly stolen to build up colossal fortunes, unprecedented in the history of the world, while their possessors despise the republic and endanger liberty."

jamelle@jamellebouie.net

plenty of 20th century examples by my 19th century-pilled mind goes immediately to the railroads, which were HUGELY DISRUPTIVE and deeply enmeshed in politics in ways quite analogous to silicon valley and AI

We are not treading on these people hard enough

RFK: "The party of #MeToo — remember, that we were all supposed to listen to women and believe women? They cruelly silenced the voices of tens of thousands of mothers who believe that their children have suffered vaccine injuries."

Look, with all policy you have to do a DMFI (Dumbest MotherFucker Implementing) analysis. Do I think in a vacuum it’s a good idea? Yeah. Do I think it’s a good idea in a world where the average teacher in Pooburg, Alabama thinks the Jewish kid is hiding horns under his curly hair? AHAHAHAHAHAHA no

I'm not naive enough to think this will change how people vote, but I do think we need to do a better job explaining that a large number of immigrants are "illegal" simply because USCIS simply declared them to be out-of-status. It's as if the govt. could drop the speed limit as you were driving.

The funny thing is that his statement is completely true If you substitute "black people" for "conservatives" Conservatives are not mentally capable of participation in higher education (or anything outside of scams and car dealerships) and only have their positions through affirmative action

Is this just business as usual in politics? No. Approval rates of federal disaster aid requests were about the same regardless of the state and did not vary much with the party of the President. This graph powerfully conveys the scale of the partisan discrimination now.

If you have enough money that you can blow $100,000,000 on avoiding taxes, you have enough money to pay $100,000,000 *on* taxes that will help your fellow citizens, you self-centered prick.

This cruelty has no need but cruelty. Haiti remains deeply dangerous; a country in the throes of anarchy. Hundreds of thousands of people are SAFE. They are safe. They are safe here and the nation has decided to make them unsafe. We are embarking on a tragedy and we cannot look away. We cannot.

So many immigrants I've interviewed break down about this. "Monsanto Maler was one of several Haitian immigrants who traveled from Springfield for a check in...after an ankle monitor was attached to him, Maler was seen collapsing to the ground and crying." www.springfieldnewssun.com/local/hundre...

Trump on El-Sayed: "If he succeeds, the Dumocrats will gain 4 Senators, 8 Congressmen, many Electoral and Popular Votes, a stacked Supreme Court with 23 Justices, and I will be, sadly, despite the great job we are doing, the last Republican President!"
