I think that if you were not familiar with the supposed political values of the Democratic Party, its performance over the last five months would lead you to conclude that they are primarily a pro-genocide party with center right economics and a fierce commitment to loyalty and gate keeping.

Fun fact: the US has been at continual war since 1945 and *not a single one of these wars*, from the Korean War to Vietnam to Iraq to Iraq again, was ever declared war by Congress. The last time the US Congress declared war was 1942. 83 years ago.

illegal war started by a man constitutionally ineligible to be president

Justice Jackson taking on Gorsuch's "pure textualism" and arguing for a more holistic reading of Congress' handiwork—worth reading in full. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Saying Cuomo (67 year old sex pest) is the future of the national Democratic Party really means national party leadership are intent on driving us off a cliff. This really is the time for our own tea party moment.

The United States of America, folks. This was just one raid and you can't even count how many they zip tied. For Trump, it's like cattle, and he's going to auction them off to his private prison buddies.

ted cruz legit the best right wing comedian

"I asked ChatGPT" "I asked Grok" ok well I asked Gandalf and he said he has not passed through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

no matter your politics it’s disrespectful to joke about someone’s health. don’t say kristi noem died from getting her ass stuck in a wooden barrel and floated off a waterfall and her head hit every tree branch on the way down and an eagle flew by and grabbed her hat. don’t say stuff like that

What can I say, kinda missing @corinaboettger.bsky.social tonight... 🥲 You'll always be the one true Paimon

there's a solid 20% chance Kristi Noem just became Patient Zero for Captain Tripps

do they still do the doomsday clock or did those people go home to be with their families

He took over a small antivaccine group he liked in 2015, turned it into his own propaganda & money-laundering org that became the biggest antivaxx source in the world and made him more than $20K/week. You have to be very intentionally stupid to think this started in 2020 or was ever about liberalism

“Return to normal” was always eugenics and that’s why so many of us have never stopped wearing a mask even though it made us outcasts. Wearing a mask is community protection and solidarity. You can always put the mask back on.

Israel can take out an Iranian commander 1000km away with a drone missile through a single bedroom wall, without any other damage. But to target a Hamas leader a few kilometres away, they need to raze whole neighborhoods to the ground. Is it obvious yet?

I'm so sorry everyone, I got that monkey's paw in 2015 and the guy I bought it from said I could just make an innocent wish and I was like, sometimes there's not enough interesting things happening

Well... here we go. Fuck

At least 11 Democratic members of Congress: "Sure, a sitting Senator got roughed up for daring to ask the Sec of the DHS a question, but that's no reason to hold off on revoking Washington, DC's right to to remain or re-declare itself a sanctuary city."

Shut down the Senate.

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem. Right fucking now.

Fucking fascists

Padilla is pretty much the DNC standard pro-cop neoliberal so this is particularly... uhhh... interesting? No, sorry I meant *disturbing as fuck*

Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city." Sen. Alex Padilla is then forcibly removed!

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

i’m so fucking fed up with this shit. when journalism outlets can’t even accurately and honestly say what’s happening to journalists—that they’re being attacked by cops and federal jackboots—then we are really and truly cooked. under scrutiny!!!!! i can’t. i can’t.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.
