"Can the president read" is going to get buried under "the president believes his predecessor was killed before assuming office and was replaced by a clone." When people talk about authoritarianism with American characteristics, these are the American characteristics.

The lesson people infuriatingly never seem to master is that there is no creating a police state just for other people. If you create a police state with no due process for immigrants or accused criminals, then that's the system you've created for yourself.

It’s odd to me that “we need to restore Christian values to Europe” is not coded as anti-Semitic even though it is, quite literally, anti-semitism’s original form.

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules. It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.

I had to double check that this was real and yep there's the president sharing a post claiming his predecessor was executed in 2020 and replaced with a robot or a clone I mean CHRIST can the legacy media please normalize calling him unhinged, at the very least

The media shuffles this aside because either oh it’s Trump being Trump or because they’re running cover for him. And it’s easy to dismiss as more nonsense. But suggesting members of the opposition party are clones/robots/NPCs is dangerous: it unpersons them, makes them likelier targets of violence.

The town's tumultuous history since Sept, when Trump attacked Charleroi Haitians after his dogs and cats bit, shows the effects of his racial politics. Trump doesn't just tap racial aggression. He manufactures it. Now, he's targeting Haitians again. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/feat...

Maybe I just don’t remember it but I don’t think there was ever a corresponding trend of articles about conservative parents cutting off their gay kids, which was a thing that absolutely happened en masse in the 90s and aughts as gay culture mainstreamed

“We’re closing the door on some of the filth read before the Committee over the past two years.” So these people haven’t read any books. He’s not even familiar with Romeo & Juliet, he admits. They’ve passed a whole book banning bill based on excerpts of books they heard in committee hearings.

Elon's legacy ranges from gutting cancer research to setting in motion millions of deaths from starvation or disease. I'll be pushing for Congress to hold Elon & DOGE accountable—for every act of corruption, every disastrous consequence, and every law they have broken.

The question before Congress right now is about life and death issues: Will hospitals stay open? Can kids stay on their health care? OR are billionaires like Elon going to get trillions in tax cuts—at their expense? Not a hard question. I know my answer—I'm with families.

Israel tells people it's safe to go and get aid from a site Israel itself set up. Then, they kill 31 people and injure 170 who are traveling to that site to get some food. Starve people, tease them with scraps of food, then kill some along the way. It's terrorism.
