yup. www.splinter.com/plagiarizing...

One of the most underrated stories over the last 5 years is the Dems who have been corrupted by crypto money (growing every day as crypto pours money into primaries) causing a big split within the Dem caucus

Reminder that words matter. You can’t “deport” a US citizen. You might be kidnapping, disappearing, exiling, expelling, illegally removing, etc., but you’re not “deporting” a US citizen.

I never laughed so hard in my life!!

I just watched a clip of Candace Owens saying she finally disagrees with Trump, then read comments saying if we can get people like Candace on our side, we’ll win. What I need people to understand is that influencers like Candace are dishonest. They will only ever say things that make them money.

First of all, do not believe anything this man says. Second, keep up the pressure.

Newspaper publications are probably already using AI to write their articles. I have never seen so many typos; names used interchangeably, etc…

Do the Mavs know that this is their last chance?

This is a terrible, terrible, terrible draft for the Sky. Jeff P needs to go! Sky needed a PG and decided not to draft Sellers or Sundell. Sky is going to struggle again with perimeter defense! He just took the Sky out of championship contention. I really can’t!!!

"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

for everyone saying "primary them!" well, they did primary anti-choice Henry Cuellar, and Nancy Pelosi and the DNC put everything they had into preserving his seat (*after* his federal indictment) against pro-choice Jessica Cisneros, so 🤗

If Dems wanted to sweep the elections they’d lean progressive and take no money from AIPAC. Zero money from right wing nationalist Zionist genociders. That’s it. I just gave you the answer to the test. But instead Dems online attack the left who have been 98% correct about everything.

Whoa, I’m actually learning something from Booker’s speech. If I’m hearing him right, the GOP is planning to use Enron/Arthur Andersen accounting techniques to lie about the fiscal consequences of their tax cuts.

They’re using the carceral system eagerly built over decades to do exactly what people told you they’d do while people were eagerly building it.

For years conservatives and some liberals complained incessantly about ‘cancel culture’ and the lack of ‘free speech’ on campuses. None of that stuff comes even close to what the right is now doing in power, in terms of the open bullying and pressuring of colleges and censoring of curricula.

This is how you do it. Jenner & Block's statement after filing suit against the Trump administration for illegally targeting them. They created an entire site to post this statement. www.jennerfirm.com

As a Missouri resident, I could see everything that’s happening coming a mile away because they already did it to my state. Defunded schools, kicked kids off Medicaid, refused the will of voters, attacked marginalized communities, and sold off farmland to foreign companies. We knew.

Note to editors and producers: If an executive order demands action that is illegal or outside of the president’s authority, then you should not describe it as ordering something. You should say it seeks to achieve some outcome and then note it is illegal or beyond the power of the president.

Corrupt judges let a criminal get away with treason and run for president. Propagandists masquerading as journalists lied to enough people that the criminal won. Then the criminal sold a half share in the presidency to the world's richest man, whom no one voted for. That's what happened, folks.

“We preface everything with an admission that our opponents are right and somehow we’re losing the messaging war. We don’t understand why this isn’t working.”

I think if you're doing left wing party politics and you're thinking about focusing less on minority rights because you feel they're bad for optics, that's a huge glaring skill issue indicating that you need to make space for someone who can do a better job

Too many Democrats spent a good part of last year demonizing campus protesters, refusing to acknowledge Palestinians as humans, and painting people who want an end to Israel's genocidal actions as terrorists. Trump is pouring on the gas, but Dems lit the match and threw in some logs.

*consistently fail to show up for marginalized communities under the slightest of pressure* *continue to be outraged whenever anyone suggests your commitment to justice isn’t as bedrock as you want them to believe*

The real story is that unnamed unknown Yemeni children died as a result of that cringe Signal disaster. Somehow that seems to be lost in all this.

Rather than frame Trump's EOs as laws/legislation (they are neither), media need to frame them as signals to "comply or become targets" since EOs largely lack power in themselves. Framing EOs as compulsory rather than choices ignores the agency of those who'd rather comply than fight for democracy.

They’re definitely going to continue using Signal for everything. They’re probably using it now.

The idea of abandoning the south to its current ecology and its history of anti-Black politics is a really awful microcosm of what's to come for the entirety of the global south. If you believe there's no back up planet, you should be concerned with how to adapt to/remediate the damage.

So we gone ever have that talk about cis womanhood and white supremacy as a tool for fascism Or we gone just sit here and bullshit

The more coverage a story gets, the more important readers think it is. So it matters when the NYT inflates flimsy Dem ‘scandals’ while downplaying real, criminal ones from Trump and Republicans. It’s not just bad judgment — it shapes public perception.

Frankly this is a problem that plagues not only Dems but even the left. We are very good at talking about present dystopia, but very bad at talking about the future in all but the most technocratic terms.

Should be asking every single person who voted to confirm Pete whether they stand by their decision

Shout out to everyone who wrote fervidly about the out of control “woke” people going too far and oppressing them with the specter of social opprobrium.

fam, @katmabu.bsky.social is going to be in Congress. www.katforillinois.com/issues/prote...

You can’t do this to me Baylor! I believed in you when no one did #NCAAW

About the ACA: go talk to elder Millennials who were dropped from their parents' insurance at the height of the Great Recession because they aged out... when no one was hiring. Go talk to anyone living with pre-existing conditions. Was the ACA enough? No. Better than what existed before? Yes.

I guessed 90 percent of my bracket and only got two wrong so far #NCAAW. Hopefully my bracket survives. I chose loyalty over common sense for some of these choices - looking at you Baylor.

What’s the chance of GT making a comeback?

Oregon and Louisville!!!!! Thanks for saving my bracket. GT is about to ruin it though

I tried to warn our profession four years ago. And now here we are. www.nytimes.com/2021/02/12/o...

It's amazing to me that parents can do this shit and not face any punishment. Sorry, but if you allow one of your kids to die because you didn't get them vaccinated, you should be thrown in prison and should lose your remaining kids.
