You bet your ass

A few Palestinian YouTube channels have stopped because they were killed. These were kids. They sang songs & loved birds, and showed us the ocean. I'll never forget Medo, a young man growing a garden in the midst of a genocide. Israel killed him; he showed the world that Palestinians are human.

honestly the most literally and specifically orwellian thing that's happening

What if the frame was: "Zero Republican lawmakers raised concerns to the corruption of the President's plan to accept a luxury plane from the Qatari royal family" And the fact that the AG's last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar wasn't in the 13th graf www.nytimes.com/live/2025/05...

Someone tell the NY Times that Hillary is accepting a plane from Qatar. Then maybe they’ll stop being pussies and start covering it for the corruption that it is.

The GOP wanted to impeach Biden for a fake $5M bribe from Ukraine that was made up by a guy sitting in prison for lying about it, but they’re cool with a $400M plane from Qatar. Do I have that right?

You know what else reports a net loss every quarter? Every single police department in the country.

Stop taking this administration at its word

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

They're firing black people from the federal government. That's it. There's no nuance to this. It's just racism straight up.

BREAKING: a rival Pope has been declared and taken residence in Avignon, France. This Avignon Papacy is a direct rival to the Chicago Pope and sets up a conflict between AP and Chicago style Catholics.

I’m serious about this. They say they have actual footage of lawmakers body slamming ICE officers. Show that footage or shut up.

ICE is a lawless organization that should be dismantled

Refugees? Give me a fucking break. More like racist white settlers

Pope Leo XIV: ‘There Couldn’t Be A Better Time To Get The Fuck Out Of America Forever’

You can understand 90% of the elite hysteria over woke/cancel culture/political correctness/etc as the reaction of people who thought they were in charge of the Marketplace of Ideas learning that they weren't.

They are against higher ed generally, but obsessed with the Ivy elites because they see such prestige as rightfully theirs.

Amid all the other news, it's easy to become inured to the basic facts here. Öztürk: -Is not accused of committing any crime -Is nonviolent -Was in this country legally -Merely engaged in speech that the administration objects to -Has been locked up for six weeks

Pediatricians say that childhood vaccines are safe. A heroin-addled nepo baby with a brain worm says they may not be. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to believe.

Update from the Rochester, MN NAACP:

Ironically, this is Big Pharma's wet dream. Rather than a preventative vaccine that costs a few dollars a dose twice a lifetime, they can sell expensive new in-patent drugs for hundreds a dose that you need to keep taking.

It's striking how vapid and boring this all is. The meme president. His flunkies snickering about how Epic it would be to post this, certain that they're Trolling but not quite sure whom or why anymore

this is the same point I make about the federalist society on law school campuses. far more useful to impose social costs on membership than to simply pretend like it's not a fascist organization in function and try to win over individual members on individual issues

The VA has abruptly ended the only low-interest, affordable loan modification option for thousands of vets who are behind on their mortgages. If you're a vet at risk of foreclosure, we want to hear your story.

Maybe people would care about them if they weren't all dumb as shit and actually voted in their best interests. Not gonna lose sleep over some high school drop out who slammed Trump's name down all 3 times and now wants me to feel bad that he's sad and lonely? They can all eat shit.

Remember when you vote next: the R next to their name stands for recession.

Instead of cutting Medicare and Medicaid, Republicans are going to inflict as much pain and harm onto those they see as the real expense. To Republicans, the poor, ill, and undocumented are nothing more than a wasteful budget expense they'll gleefully rid the country of to save a few bucks.

Jamie Dimon says the *best case* scenario for the US is now a recession. Cool, cool. From the best economy in the world to a self-inflicted recession in 4 months. Gotta be some kind of record.

Democrats would rather fight over who's holding the fucking talking-stick in morning circle like a bunch of kindergarteners than address actual issues facing the country
