Yesterday, one of the full time whiners complained Dems weren't doing enough to punish Mike Lee for his disgusting attacks in wake of the Melissa Hortman assassination. This post makes it clear that 1) that happened and 2) such pressure is BETTER done locally. www.thebulwark.com/p/is-mike-le...

And when they write their big loud “I’m leaving NYC” pieces that the Post covers, all they’re doing is buying a second home in Miami or wherever the hell, and they still come slinking back. It’s all bullshit.

From the safe confines of your gated FL community you will say "I didn't vote for this". You submitted a ballot with his fuckng name checked off, you voted for this. Also, your vote carried far more EV weight than flyover Trumpland.

This will persist long after Trump is gone, a country that would elect an incompetent monster (twice) cannot be trusted again. Biden laid the foundation and Harris was our get-out-of-jail-free card. We blew it.

the damage is incalculable. in the future, no one will trust our visas. no one will trust our grants. tax credits/incentives for infrastructure won't be trusted. The US is establishing itself as an unreliable partner.

Was true on Twitter as well, bad idea to expose your feed (via replies or RT) to RW mentions. Feel free to lurk, but don't engage them.

I see there are thousands of replies to JD Vance, and while I understand the impulse to dunk on this rotten piece of garbage, be aware that he will use comments at blue sky to attack the site and try to get it shut down, and also to harass selected individuals. Much better to just block the fucker.

It was always about, “‘Medical freedom’ for me but not for thee.” Supplements, refusing vaccines, and quackery Freedom! How dare anyone tell us what medicine we can and can’t use! Women’s health care and gender-affirming care for trans youth? Now wait a minute! It’s wrong, and you can’t have it!🙄

I’m doing history content on YouTube. This is my latest video! Like and subscribe if you want to see more! And what should I tackle next? I am thinking of doing a video on the varieties of antislavery in antebellum America. Maybe also the 3/5ths Compromise?

These people aren’t afraid Mamdani would be a bad mayor. We have a ridiculous, corrupt, incompetent mayor right now and the city is hanging in OK. They’re declaring all-out war because they’re afraid Mamdani (or Lander) might be a good mayor.

Outrageous: ICE agents arrested a former U.S. Army interpreter who risked his life aiding American troops in Afghanistan, right after his asylum hearing in San Diego. The interpreter legally entered the U.S. after the 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan.

“Trump spent years campaigning against risky and expensive wars, and criticizing hawkish foreign policy decisions” is just straightforwardly false. It’s completely made up!

"Fiscal hawk creditability", like when Reagan had to walk back his disastrous tax cuts, and like GHWB being exiled by the GOP for being fiscally responsible, and like his idiot son tax cutting us and spending us into a massive financial crisis.

"Adan" works in the vegetables and says, "Being a field worker is tough - especially when the harvest is bad. I push through though. I work hard through heat and long hours for my family to make sure my 3 daughters and son don't lack anything." #WeFeedYou

This framing is beneath contempt. The Christian right and MAGA launched an unprecedented assault on the civil rights of a tiny minority and successfully weaponized the pseudoliberal establishment - led by the NYT - to provide it with a medical controversy pretext that doesn’t actually exist.

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.

I like this point. A US logistics job is a proxy for an old US mftg job. As mftg shifted abroad, you needed logistics to fill the gap, as an extension of manufacturing. So, less POs cut abroad take out logistics needs which are would be manufacturing jobs. www.linkedin.com/posts/dutta-...

I have never been more frustrated or afraid as a Jew. I have never felt my family here - or in Israel - was in more direct danger. And it's almost all driven by choices made by Netanyahu and his right wing American Christian allies. It's awful.

Glad to see someone dig into this. When a reporter hears a government official utter a percentage change but not the underlying numbers, the bullshit detector should go off

Helicopters. Armed troops wearing masks. All for a freaking military-grade raid at a flea market that appears to have resulted in two measly arrests. DHS and ICE are out of control. ktla.com/news/local-n...

So Starship Ship 36 just detonated before the static fire test - fueled and waiting for the test. Looks like the top tank lets go and sets off the whole stack. It would be bad enough if it let go during the static fire test, but it just blew up. And it's cooking off the fuel tanks on the pad.

The individual maximum a person can donate to a NYC mayoral candidate is $2100. Mike Bloomberg just donated $8.3 million to Andrew Cuomo through a super PAC. This is what a rigged campaign finance system, designed to let the wealthy buy elections, looks like.

Aside from the masks did ICE have to canabilize its budget for unfiroms?Are they buying them these bro clothes get-ups for work? I jest but it's not just the masks and lack of badges where are their uniforms?
