This Supreme Court is not a judicial court, but a royal court. They exist not to apply the laws of this nation fairly for all its citizens but rather to prop up the king and attend to his needs and his needs alone.

Every time the Supreme Court dumps a load of decisions right before heading off for vacation, I'm reminded of how Clarence Thomas marked the conclusion of one SCOTUS session by boarding a private jet to Indonesia where he and Ginny island-hopped aboard Harlan Crow's 162-foot superyacht:

Hey everyone, just a reminder: A little more than a week ago, a Republican terrorist killed two people and injured two more in an effort to kill enough democrats to capture the Minnesota Legislature

J.K. Rowling is a menace to society whose anti-trans rhetoric is violent and encourages offline violence. Her telling people to take pictures of suspected trans women in bathrooms and disseminate them is sexual harassment. And it puts everyone in the women’s bathroom in danger.

A lot of people who supported the Uncommitted activists or stayed silent about them when many of us warned that Trump and Harris are in fact different on foreign policy are now big mad at Trump. What are you mad about? You got the outcome you wanted. Harris lost and Trump is doing what we expected.

I am literally begging people writing about RFK Jr. to stop giving any credence to the idea that "MAHA" is actually about making Americans healthy - it absolutely is not. It is about shaming people with chronic health conditions and substituting snake oil for science.

The administration has kicked the hornet's nest of the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism at precisely the same moment it has gutted many of our most critical counter-terrorism resources. Stunningly foolhardy. We are at greater risk today than we were yesterday.

JKR is literally hunting trans ppl to do violence on them. She is an active participant in trans genocide. Do not watch the HBO show. Do not buy the video games. Do not go to the fucking theme parks.

In case you can't tell what just happened, JK Rowling instructed her followers to take photos of anyone in a women's restroom who doesn't match their idea of Western feminine beauty standards. Short hair? Thick cheekbones/jaw? Too tall or broad-shouldered? You're now "a man" and will be harassed.

The alternative was the qualified and competent Vice President, who was a Black woman, and giving her a Democratic House and Senate, so clearly an orgy of self-destruction was the only reasonable choice for GOP voters, the majority of white voters, protest nonvoters, and third-partiers.

At some point, we need to grapple with the fact that anti-vaxx conspiracies, crunchy mom propaganda, and the crusade against trans kids are all related. People who don't think you should be put any "chemicals" in your body are basically a circle with the anti-trans people. Crunchy leads to alt right

The same people demanding you present a photo ID to vote are perfectly fine with letting you be arrested, handcuffed & thrown into a van by armed men wearing plain clothes, face masks & presenting no identification of any sort.

Just so I’m clear… Terry Moran got fired, but Mike Lee is still a sitting US senator?

Why is 100% of David Hogg's energy spent going after sitting Democrats instead of trying to unseat incumbent Republicans in his home state of FL, if not all across the country, including in state legislatures?!? Occam's razor: He's just a ratfucking grifter following a lucrative career path.

@smith.senate.gov: "I think [Mike Lee] was sort of stunned to be coming face to face with somebody who was really calling him out on his bullshit... The way that people like Mike Lee and others on the right take advantage of the worst kind of human tragedy and political violence... is unacceptable."

Trump is alone, humiliated, surrounded by loser supporters, and extremely angry. This is when he'll be at his most dangerous and will do as much as possible to hurt America and the world.

There is no reason to be concerned about the birthrate other than racism. Humanity as a whole is above replacement levels, and we could stand to reduce the population. Age cohort problems could easily be solved through liberalized immigration. This is literally the stupidest thing to care about.

Trump’s military parade, which cost around $45M, was more than just a huge waste of money. It was a corrupt transaction between Trump and a host of corporate sponsors that have close ties to the president and used the event to promote their products and services.

Just a reminder that absolutely none of this awful, horrible, very bad shit would be happening right now if the Joyful Black Lady were President right now. Inflation would be down, the deficit would be down, jobs would be up, tourism would be up, nobody would be being disappeared, no bombs in Iran.

I know there's a lot going on, but the Secretary of Homeland Security declaring that federal troops are in California and Los Angeles to "liberate" the state and city from its duly-elected leaders really is a fourteen-alarm fire.

I don’t really have words to explain how it feels to see Kristi Noem standing on a street in East LA that looks like the street I grew up on in East LA with an invading military force trying to kidnap people who look like the neighbors I grew up with. It stays with you, spiritually.
