I keep my head down and turn out good work and I just barely made rent this month, but a lady calls a kid the n-word at a playground and she raises a half-million dollars in a week. I don't get the world, and I don't like it. We are surrounded by rotten dogshit assholes and they're thriving.

I think crime show tv writers and true crime Podcasters should have a think about how they've equated "due process" with "horrible guilty criminal gets off on a technicality" for decades

In retrospect it was a mistake to have a political system where the president can't unilaterally do anything good but can unilaterally do massive damage. That's our bad

Agree totally with this @sebastianpayne.bsky.social take on declining social cohesion. The anarchist-minded people who think it's bad to punish petty crimes like shoplifting, fare evasion etc don't appreciate how that moves everybody else to the right. www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...

These cases will never survive federal courts overseen by federal judges...which means at some point I'm pretty sure they're going to resort to military tribunals or kangaroo courts in soccer stadiums

Guys, fascism is not a trick to make rich people richer. Radical reactionary populism is a real thing. People REALLY DO get self-destructively radicalized around social resentments, punishing marginalized groups for the psychic reward of seeing them suffer and feeling dominant.

Yea, this is true. Treating any ism as a trick the rich pull ignores that they believe it, too. Elites were phrenologists, it wasn't a backwoods tradition.

It is essential for the rule of law that everyone involved in this end up in prison. Nothing else is a sufficient deterrent against the intentional, repeated abuse of government power to systematically deny fundamental rights.

Among the (many) costs of our entire national news media being populated by the same incestuous group of ivy grads: this whole "Trump is the true voice of the herrenvolk" attitude they take is a direct result of none of them having ever met a real person before.

I meant the whole "The GOP is trying to drag the country back to the Gilded Age" argument as a metaphor, and yet here we are literally dodging measles and tariffs.

You might ask why an entire nation's worth of computer experts opted out of "let's rewrite the code that handles all of Social Security in a couple months" before now and merely asking the question makes you much smarter than any of the script kiddies calling themselves 'DOGE'.

Seriously: arrest him. The governor should have state police arrest him and charge him with election fraud. Then immediately hold a press conference explaining you arrested someone for committing election fraud and will continue to do so. Just fucking arrest him already. You can actually do this

This is the most openly corrupt act by a sitting President in the history of America. It is now 4.40 PM - and Politico, WaPo and NYT are simply refusing to cover it. NYT wrote 35 articles speculating on the POSSIBLE corruption of Clinton Foundation. Which was never found.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will stop paywalling articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

political media has created social incentive for being "independent," and this usually means standing for nothing and falling for everything, things of that nature.
