There have been young douchebros around my entire life. It’s just that until recently there wasn’t an industry telling them that they were entitled to be douchebros without anyone calling them douchebros.

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

They are given airtime to promote their odious book. To her credit, Mika starts trying to get Tapper to say that Biden was an effective president. Not my job, he says. Next they speculate about his cancer. Everything wrong with political journalism is in this moment.

It’s not just incorrect, but the opposite—the antithesis—of habeas corpus for the president to have the unfettered, unreviewable “right” to cast people into exile in the torture chambers of foreign autocrats.

If @msnbc is going to have random physicians who have never treated Biden speculating about him, maybe they can find some to speculate about Trump’s apparent medical issues.

If any of the ICE goons could take a break from hiding their faces and abducting people to read a book, they would understand why they are the fucking gestapo

I've been wracking my brain trying to figure this out. Like, we know that he thinks immigrants seeking asylum means they came from a mental asylum, which also led him to believe that Hannibal Lecter is real (and dead?). There's got to be some mental maze like this for groceries, but I can't parse it

Wait. Wait. Just....So, you thought all these years Bruce Springsteen has been, what? Singing about how fucking awesome CEO bonuses and shareholder value are? Wait, wait, you thought Born in the USA was some sort of patriotic anthem to fucking CAPITALISM?

Habeas Corpus, known as the "great writ," is the single tool that stands between a free society and a government that can lock people up as it pleases. Suspension of Habeas Corpus is the end of a free United States. Period. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

A gay asylum seeker was disappeared to CECOT. Iranian Christians and Afghan feminists were sent to Panama. And yet the administration can roll out the welcome mat for well-to-do white landowners from a democracy. Obscene. It’s just obscene.

Every day the news is like “Trump has canceled the Federal program that prevents orphans from being shot to death by chainguns, it cost $20,000 a year and saves five orphans a day” and I’m like “oh that doesn’t sound good at all”

This sort of unambiguous, unapologetic pro-immigration message is so much more effective than unconvincing hemming and hawing about how actually Democrats would do a better and more effective job of being anti-immigration.

One of the funniest things about the oligarch group chats story is the implication that the story leaked now due to the chats falling apart from Trump tarriffs. Like people are getting disappeared and the president's son is "joking" about no elections in 2028 but it was tarriffs that triggered them

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 44 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.
