This is true of most fash over here too. Just a bunch of fucking broken pub barstool heaters with nothing left except harassing folks when they think they have an overwhelming advantage. They're fucking bullies. Stand up to them and they soon shut the fuck up.

Home insurance is getting pricier, as hurricanes and wildfires get worse. Some states are trying new incentives, encouraging homeowners to retrofit homes against disasters to get an insurance discount.

something the right understands that the left doesnt yet is the value of making noise. most of the right wing noise machine isnt funded by murdoch and the rnc. most of it is delusional psychos amplifying each other. it ends up taking up all the space and sounding like the norm. it works.

No surprise here. Note that it would be extremely rare for a green card holder with no criminal history whatsoever to be detained on allegations of misrepresentation in a green card application — the only charge that ICE could possibly hold him on.

The Senate bill aims to effectively end all civil rights lawsuits against the federal government except by entities rich enough to potentially pay million/billions in fees. I am not making this up.

I keep thinking about this. I've tried to listen to it charitably, but all I'm hearing is a declaration of war. If this is truly the federal government's position, then I don't think local and state officials should feel bound by federal law in response.

Just to get this right: Kristi Noem is saying that they are taking control from the governor of California and the mayor of Los Angeles, but the protesters who don’t want that to happen are the insurrectionists.

The 2022 US trans survey caught the moment before all the eradication policies started. It's devastating seeing how much progress was made in reducing insurance denials knowing that most trans people will lose access this year to their healthcare.

California Senator Padilla was thrown to the ground and arrested at a Noem press conference.

More Americans voted for Senator Alex Padilla than for 48 of the 53 red state GOP U.S. Senators combined. That alone makes him a powerful senator.

Guess who was right in the thick of the assault on @padilla.senate.gov? Corey Lewandowski. (He may have been the guy instructing that there's no recording at a press conference and seems to have realized how badly they fucked up.)

Let's be absolutely clear: physically assaulting a US Senator for simply asking a question is disgraceful. We stand with Senator Padilla and all those peacefully defending working people against this administration's attacks.

I think the main thing is he wants vital emergency relief to be personalized rather than institutionalized. It’s not that the federal government won’t aid states hit by disasters; it’s that he wants them to kneel & beg him personally.

It's a truly jarring split screen that Kristi Noem's goons attacking Sen Padilla happened at almost the exact same time as 16 Dem senators crossed lines to vote with the GOP to invoke cloture on the crypto bill, forfeiting any leverage. Dems need to act like an opposition.
