The only solution to this is a full truth and reconciliation commission, and a complete ban on the Republican Party existence in our civil institutions, as well as full criminalization of membership.

Current mood

This was inevitable. Republicans across the country feel deputized to enact their political will via violence. I would not be surprised if some of the ICE abductions are also non government/militia. We’re in it now.

We feed you. They hunt us.

Got my ass beat. Going to be a primary driver for the foreseeable future.

He’s gonna win.

Realizing that running for DSA delegate could potentially be the most important thing I’ve ever done

If you drive drunk and your negligence kills someone, you will likely be sentenced to years in prison. If you are a Boeing executive and your negligence kills 346 people, you likely will not receive any punishment at all. In America, we don't treat white collar crimes as crimes.

their inability to understand that land doesn’t vote only worsens with time

The local news part specifically is genuinely a great idea.

AI is genuinely useful for many situations and insanely evil in many cases, is only getting better, but I don't think it has the potential to be AGI, but it's sometimes hard to disaggregate from the nonsense that is generated by the same personalities that boosted NFTs, crypto, Metaverse, lol

Connolly saw the country plunge headlong into fascism and deluded himself into thinking the way to preserve his paltry legacy would be blocking one of the only politicians in this country with the clarity and fortitude to fight back from ascending to the spot where she'd be most effective. Fuck him.

Say it with your chest.

wait Cuomo dropped a hard R on *live radio*?? www.timesunion.com/news/article...

I tend not to give voice to my worst fears bc I don't see who that helps. But for a while after first seeing the idea suggested I thought the switch from HBO to Max was a *deliberate* targeting of audience expectations *in order to lower them* by a company that no longer believed in making good art.

Another point here is that voters trust you more if you don't change your positions. A politician who sticks with their guns and fights for their constituents, even when they disagree with them, is 9/10 times better than a politician who says things they agree with but can't trust.

AOC: The math is not adding up. Their claim is that one million undocumented people are on Medicaid. So why are they trying to cut 13.7 million Americans off their healthcare?

While many of Trump's blunders are very reversible, I fear this one is going to lead to a permanent loss in our ability to do research as a nation and by extension a permanent contraction in our economy www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/b...

this is incredibly embarrassing

I am honored to have the support of UNITE HERE Local 100, a union of thousands of workers in restaurants, airports, arenas and more across the metropolitan region. They stood with me in my very first run for Assembly and I am so proud they are with us now.

The law is clear: Americans are protected from being compelled by the government to engage in speech with which they disagree. By making passports ideological, argues attorney Miles Whitney, the Trump administration has turned them into government-compelled speech. Read more on Assigned Media:

I get the kleptocracy angle of this story is deeply compelling, and honestly worthwhile to go after if anyone else (preferably AOC or Ossof) was doing it. But we know the only reason this schmuck finds it all offensive is because it could potentially have an effect on how Trump relates to Israel.

I hate police week so much.

Hearing that people are mad at Nathan Fielder on here so let me be clear: If you are at all upset by the Rehearsal it’s because you too are a gullible mark who would also fall for these very obvious schemes, or, less generously, you are guilty about your role in the reality tv industry.

Reminder that none of these people should ever be allowed to show their faces in public again, let only hold elected office.

Across the five boroughs, our volunteers knocked on more than 86,000 doors... just in the past week. We've now knocked 430,000+ doors at 1,006 different neighborhood canvasses since we launched our field program in January. This is truly unprecedented.

“We need to take a big long look at ourselves and agree with Republicans”

new pope! *crowd goes wild* American pope! *crowd boos* woke for an American! *crowd goes wild* bad on protecting abusive priests! *crowd boos* hates JD Vance! *crowd goes wild*

you're welcome

growing up the consensus was that high turnout really benefited Dems and the way the respective bases have switched such that high info, high propensity voters are reliably Dems and low info dipshits all break for Trumpism is wild RFK might have swung it after all

No matter how much he pays the world will not forget Palestine and how he specifically acted toward Netanyahu the electorate and protesting students. His actions woke up so many to the issue. Hopefully people never forget

Dude’s gotta go. @summerlee.bsky.social for Senate.

Anyone up for blocking a runway with me

those fighter jets fell in love with submarines. like romeo and juliet

Sleepy Krennic choking like a dog and letting the galaxy fall into Chaos! Something has to be done!

In light of the DC raids we want to reshare our ICE watch 101 graphics. Reminder to verify, document, and then report to our hotline.

Can’t put into words how disturbing I find this. The idea of hearing from my brother through this tech is grotesque. Using it in a courtroom even worse.

they’re going to try to start conversion therapy to double prong attack children that are autistic and transgender and it’s going to traumatize a new generation of kids in a way we aren’t ready for

Video from February, when Sen. John Fetterman got in an argument with a pilot about wearing his seatbelt so it was visible. “Sir, if you want to go to Pittsburgh, it's simple: you have to follow our instructions or you're gonna be asked to get off the airplane.” “We're not asking much.”

This is an outrageous policy change. Also, if you’re gonna do this then you gotta do it for drivers, too right? Given those are obviously far far more dangerous vehicles. nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/05/02/p...

love to make america great again by essentially expelling the people that enrich our children’s lives

This magical Capitals season has been a direct result of their offseason work. Success in the spring, fueled by success in the summer. How 10 days in July shaped Washington's playoff push ⤵️ http://dlvr.it/TKVTyd

“xAI tried to train me to appeal to the right” says so much about the current moment we live in
