Confident stupidity is the defining trait of the modern GOP

We weren't allowed to have cell phones where I was deployed, but if we had them and I texted my buds details about our upcoming flights I'd still be in prison.

anyway calling these "war plans" when they were actually plans to blow up an apartment building full of civilians because the girlfriend of a guy we don't like lived there sounds more like "terrorism plans" or perhaps even more accurately "terrorism factory creation plans"

Becoming a “thank you for your service” guy for a car dealership is the logical endpoint of American conservatism

Was just reading John Quincy Adams' oral arguments before SCOTUS in the Amistad case and this part seems, uh, pretty relevant

He drinks a whiskey drink He drinks a vodka drink He drinks a lager drink He drinks a cider drink He sends a text that remind him of the war plans He sends a text that reminds him of the war crimes #Hegseth

you’ve heard this a million times today by now but it’s still so fucking funny they added the editor of the Atlantic to a fucking war plans group chat entirely by accident

Just the absolute best there ever was.

My bracket's busted but my team is in the sweet 16 so what complaint could I possibly have

The geniuses at DOGE are bringing us insights like "I'm not really sure why the tax agency for a country of 330 million people has a larger staff than a midsize bank"

To: M👹M, SS is not a ponzi scheme. It is not a for profit business. It is not a grift on the public. It is a PAY AS YOU GO retirement plan for US. As co$ts rise, taxes rise. It has no maturity date as it is never ending. You are a real "dum f*ck" if you can't visualize that. Tesla stock prove that.🖕

A good friend of mine who wasn't much older than me and who I had a lot in common with died unexpectedly yesterday after he went into the hospital for a bad stomachache and it turned out he had an aggressive form of lymphoma. He was young and full of life. He was a kickass lawyer. God damn it.

doing patchwork liberalism in a handful of countries for 75 years drove up human life expectancy by two and a half fold and income by twenty fold but then we let people read their neighbors thoughts online and now that’s over

If any blue states secede, I'd definitely move there. I can't imagine I'm alone. I'm tired of living with the constant threat of republicans hanging over my head.

Please stop putting little screens on the gas pumps and forcing me to learn what a "Lainey Wilson" is.

Trump nominated a guy to the bench. Everyone said he was a lazy ideologue with bad temperament and the usual suspects dismissed that as liberal rubbish. Anyway he just issued a dissent from a Ninth Circuit opinion in the form of a YouTube video with Old Spice ads in which he waves guns around.

I will just reiterate -- even though doing so has long since become pointless -- that keeping these current lunatics out of office was an entirely sufficient argument for voting Dem up and down the ballot. People who didn't do so should feel bad about themselves.

Obviously these people are pretty evil, extremely stupid, and have fully poached their brains, but I'm convinced that they're just using the ugliest language they can so you'll stop engaging. It's strategic, but also more or less the same thing that skunks do.

Accidentally swallowed wrong this morning. RIP to me

If you cannot honor an American hero like Jackie Robinson -- and especially if you go out of your way to attempt to ERASE him -- you are a white supremacist. That's just a simple fact. It's high time that everyone say that in clear terms. That we call these people what they are.

I’m convinced that people who say they don’t like the eagles have never actually listened to the eagles.

Look, I am not a Schumer defender so please do not mistake me when I say shutting down the federal government is always a bigger stick to use against Democrats than it is against Republicans. Republicans hate the federal govt. Their whole thing is trying to shut it down.

Y’all remember in 2001 Dale Earnhardt died in the Daytona 500 and then the very next race at Daytona Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the race and 180,000 people cheered and cried and man that was some amazing shit.

Rock My World (Little Country Girl) by Brooks and Dunn is a bop and idc if you disagree.

They claim they can snatch people up, put them on planes, and deport them to a country run by an authoritarian, where those people will be forced to work slave labor at an inhumane prison. All without due process, and in defiance of federal courts. The hypotheticals are over. This is the nightmare.

The wildest part is that the dude is like "I guess I didn't know" and "they need to get the vetting done," and not even renouncing Trump. He disappeared your wife! On your honeymoon! This movement is a scourge that will destroy every last piece of your humanity

Share the media. The news is compromised. We're starting to boil over.

I’ve said it before but I honestly believe part of why the Democratic party struggles with men is it’s legitimately emasculating being represented by the biggest pussies alive
