American Catholicism is such a mess that they can't follow the most basic tenet of the religion - that the Pope speaks with God's voice on Earth - because he keeps saying shit they don't want to hear. But they still want to be Catholic. Like, why? You're obviously not good at it.

If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.

Hey nondisabled people: I appreciate you jumping on the eugenicist rhetoric coming out of “Dr.” Oz, but I need you to understand: they don’t give a shit about childhood cancer, or dementia, or any illness. It’s all our fault, and if it’s your kid, it’s your fault. That’s how this works.

Everyone now and again I will see someone use the phrase "woke mind virus" seriously and I will wonder what it is like to be them, and to have a head full of rancid pudding where a brain is meant to be

Angel of the Lord: He is not here, He is risen, just as He said. Come and see the place where He lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead. Alito: Okay, first of all, this violates ALL sorts of rules Thomas: This was a LAWFUL execution, who is God to interfere

Fun Tariff Facts: during the depression the US lost access to many imported paper products. They were replaced with an unusually tough paper stock made of hemp from the Philippines (then a US colony, and tariff exempt). Anyway, that’s why they were, and still are, called Manila folders / envelopes.

I'm just a poor country political historian and not some big city media fella, but it does seem like a slightly big deal that the leader of the United States presented comically faked "evidence" in the Oval Office to justify his power to disappear ordinary people into a Central American prison?

There isn't a story on the BBC News site about today's trans rights rally at Parliament Square where it's estimated 20k attended. But they did have a story last week about the Let Women Speak transphobe rally in Bristol where 100 people attended.

Senator Van Hollen’s commitment to the Abrego Garcia case isn’t performative. Wearing an overnight maxi pad on your ear after an “assassination attempt” is performative.

Nintendo paid homage to the 1991 Paul Rudd SNES commercial by bringing him back to make one for Switch 2. This is amazing.

Poorly photoshopped tattoo pictures. Fake margaritas added to a photo op. A demand letter accidentally sent to Harvard. Nonsensical tariff stats and formulas. We’re losing our democracy to the dumbest mother fuckers ever.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

I've covered Van Hollen since circa 1999. He's actually not a "grandstander." In his first Congressional bid, he was the workhorse vs the showhorse. He out-hustled Mark Shriver who had far more money and had been on the cover of Time Magazine as a next-gen Kennedy. He won with an army of volunteers.

A 2-year-old boy was shot and killed last week with a gun that was left unsecured gun in his Georgia home, but you might not have heard about it because it’s the sort of thing that happens every single day in America. It’s long past time we did something about that.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

I understand that Kilmar Abrego Garcia may have abused his wife but I still don’t believe, given the values enshrined in the constitution and the principles of the rule of law, that he should become Secretary of Defense

Van Hollen: And it's also important that people understand this case is not just about one man. It's about protecting the constitutional rights of everybody who resides in the United States of America.

The Bush administration disappeared people too, sent them to a different gulag at Gitmo and other black sites, kidnapped people off the street of Milan, tortured them, in the name of "a different kind of war." We didn't come close to holding them accountable. We're seeing the cost of that now.

the fundamental problem with these people (not jonathan) is that they don’t seem to believe in anything. if you’re willing to sacrifice one of the foundational rights of constitutional government on the altar of “buh this might not be popular” then what won’t you sacrifice?

Sorry but I just don't feel comfortable sharing public toilets with transphobes. At any moment they could just demand to have a look at my gennies. The law should protect women's spaces from these creeps.

It's getting very hard to avoid the conclusion that a major problem with the Democratic Party right now is that its consultancy and other agenda-defining members more or less agree with Republicans on immigration
