Bill Maher is the Chuck Schumer of comedy.

I love this because I can't decide which one it's meaner to.

Wow Curtis Yarvin is fucking dumb, huh? And I don’t mean in a ‘everyone who disagrees with me is an idiot’ way, there are some people who have espoused views I find abhorrent that are clearly intelligent, like he legit does not know what he’s talking about.

there’s a style of reporting that’s basically like “the left hasn’t been duped by the transparently bad faith framing of the right, but I, the reporter, very much have.”

ICE trafficks anyone they think may have a legitimate legal challenge to their kidnappings and deportations to Louisiana. There, judges rule consistently against challenges. It's a black hole lacking extradition laws to send anyone back to states where they were kidnapped. Even student activists.

In his remarks to the court after the ruling, Khalil said there was an urgent need to address the cases of the other migrants held in the same Louisiana ICE facility. Not one person employed by DHS has even a shadow of the integrity of this man. www.cbsnews.com/news/mahmoud...

Before folks overreact to headlines about the judge’s ruling in the Khalil case, please note that (1) it was an immigration judge (IJ), not a federal district court; and (2) the IJ had no power to consider Khalil’s constitutional objections. This particular decision was a fait accompli.

It is astonishing what grace and concern for others Khalil has shown throughout this travesty. Also, green card holders are now on notice: we are all deportable for thought crimes. www.npr.org/2025/04/11/n...

Evil

Ugh

Why this is in a Louisiana judges jurisdiction at all is just a small piece of this shit show, but it really has been knocking around in my brain. They will just send anyone they want to get rid of to a state where the judicial branch will back them up - it doesn't matter where they abduct us from.

I have been really curious how the image generator in ChatGPT handles logos so I asked it to remake the below advertisement for a discontinued #McDonalds food item for Chongqing (my favorite Chinese city) Did not add a logo and did not use the actual McDonalds colors.

There have been three previous anti-immigrant movements in America. -The Know Nothings -The KKK -The American Nazi Party

Fuck Trump and everyone who has ever given him any ideas and anyone he has ever appointed or nominated
