Always get a kick out of people who, after all this time, are still penning articles and posting things like, "This is going to get a lot worse unless the Trump Administration changes course." My dude. They're not there to make things work. They're there to steal. Open your fucking eyes.

Two Halftime shows because racists can't tolerate anything that isn't White dominant. This is America. This is why there was a Civil War. Nothing new. We need to stop coddling these racists. Let them lose and eat bland food and listen to crappy music. The majority salsas forward.

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

So by burning Bovino they're basically admitting that we were right. Can we get some people with power to push further on that?

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth: “ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king. This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”

Democrats need to understand that they can just say “It’s insane to threaten Greenland” and “I don’t think ICE should murder Americans in the street” and you don’t need to pretend to link it to the affordability crisis. Say bad things are bad.

The Times is committed to a specific kind of journalistic kayfabe, specifically “objective” journalism, a relatively recent phenomenon born out of the wake of newspaper consolidation that began in the 1950s. www.theverge.com/culture/7000...
article text: To look “objective,” then, the Times must occasionally run stories that will irritate liberals and leftists. There’s one problem: as the right wing has gotten increasingly detached from reality, the stories that appeal to right-wingers have been journalistic disasters, the kind that seriously discredit the Times on other issues. The Mamdani story is just one example; the paper’s coverage of Claudine Gay is yet another.

The New York Times' obsession with a view from nowhere is long-standing, but as Republicans increasingly circulate insane conspiracy theories and racist nonsense, the cult of centrism has taken a self-destructive turn. Read more from @lopatto.bsky.social: www.theverge.com/culture/7000...
A headline from The Verge reads "How The New York Times is (still) getting gamed by the right". The headline sits under a photo illustration of Zohran Mamdani.

This is what's been driving me f'ing crazy about the Democrats. They ceded the immigration debate to the GOP for no reason. Immigration is a net positive to this country and it's not even close. We have a broken immigration system but the problem isn't the immigrants, it's the politicians.
