This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

This is really well stated. Art is a thought process not a straight jump from “idea” to “outcome”. It means you can’t outsource the hard bits (for instance to some weird tech bro’s algorithm) without losing something crucial

This actually makes me want to throw up. Trump and his whole crew are the most gutless pussies America has ever produced. Quote me any time. Dan Barkhuff, Vermont.

I don’t think that’s very clear at all. Trump and his Nazi billionaire friend are trying to destroy government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Anyone still on their side doesn’t want to work with you ever again. And the people who are on your side want you to stand in their way.

A horrible people, right? All murderers, rapists, criminals, and drug traffickers, right? Trump once called them animals. Y'all, Mr. Rogers said look for the helpers. Those helpers are currently coming from Mexico & Canada to help with a natural disaster here. Let's stop shitting on our neighbors.

Just in from mammoth interview session to two bits of news. One that a DV perp got locked up because of something I did and that a vulnerable constituent had a a massive wrongful debt written off after our intervention. This is why I came to politics, this is why I'll just keep cracking on.

I don't understand the political timidity when it comes to regulating social media. These are companies that have decimated the free press, fuelled race riots on our streets, undermined the mental health of our children, paid little tax and are now undermining liberal democracy itself.

I'm playing two chess grandmasters by mail. One as white, the other as black. I just send them each other's moves. They both think I'm a genius. Both invite me to their homes to make love to their wives as they watch from the closet. That's when I secretly charge all my electronics. Free electricity
