The idea of executions being live-streamed is absolutely sick and disgusting. You don’t hate Pete Hegseth enough

If you actually read what I said, I said the whole nuclear necessity justification is absurd. But what he is saying in his idiotic, garbled way, is that high gas prices are a small price to pay compared to a nuclear strike. I am NOT agreeing with him, but he did not mean what it sounded like.

Ossoff: "I think Pete Hegseth is frankly a deeply unwell person who seems to relish this kind of brutality all the while he's running a department that is falling into chaos. The guy cannot run the military competently and is spending his time with this kind of obscene medieval spectacle."

This is Nazi rhetoric, full stop. It's not only a call to instigate a race war in the United States, but it's reminiscent of historic European justifications used to incite pogroms against Jews. People who say things like this are incredibly dangerous, as there is nothing they won't eventually do.

IMO, This is the whole ballgame. Money corrupts absolutely. Josh Turek: "We need to have campaign finance reform to get dark money out of politics. I want to sponsor a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United. We can have oligarchy or we can have democracy. We can't have both."

Meanwhile, over on X, the Secretary of Homeland Security is posting about "vandalizing the demographics of America," a phrase which is either a chilling suggestion of white nationalism from Mullin or just straight pablum which means nothing but sounds just fash enough to excite the faithful.

“Vandalize the demographics of America” is either a chilling phrase suggesting that Mullin is a white nationalist or an absurdly meaningless bit of pablum  which ignores 250 years of the constantly shifting demographics of a nation of immigrants.

Underneath is a picture of Mullin with a quote "How do you turn a country from democracy to socialism? You have to change the demographics."

Maybe if Trump could speak coherently and stop trying to justify his Iran War that raised prices on thousands of things for Americans with apocalyptic fear mongering and garbled syntax he wouldn’t have to worry about being misinterpreted or taken out of context.

Is he referring to the gas prices being high being a small price to pay rather than some American city being nuked? I mean, yes, the whole Iran having a bomb thing is absurd, but I don't think he was saying what some think he was saying. We look ridiculous when we purposely take him out of context

MSF Says Israel Is 'Asphyxiating' Gaza, With Palestinians Pushed Into 'Smaller and Smaller Area'

MSF struggles to provide aid as Israel restricts essentials, leading to illnesses and trauma. When will the world act to stop this destruction and ethnic cleansing? #FreePalestine

The white evangelical movement split in the 1970s so those who hated civil rights, especially for women, could boost right-wing Republicans. Talarico is reclaiming the movement for the others, and it is a very different thing indeed. Jimmy Carter v. Jerry Falwell.

What a lie. Some of these people are being imprisoned indefinitely in squalid condition in African prisons. Others report being beaten and arbitrarily deported in violation of international law back to their home countries, where they face persecution or torture.
The indefinite nature of their confinement has taken a severe toll. In October 2025, a Cuban man who was on the July flight went on a hunger strike for a month-until he started showing signs of organ failure —to protest the conditions of his detention, including his ongoing confinement and lack of access to legal counsel.
Terrified of being imprisoned in Eswatini forever, another man repeatedly told his attorney that the prison there never lets people go. One man told his attorney that he feels like a caged animal with no end in sight. The prison does not have air conditioning, making the hot, humid summer months especially uncomfortable for the men.
Food is insufficient, medication is scarce, and requests often go unmet or are belatedly met.

If Trump just takes money appropriated by Congress for a specific purpose & seizes it to use it for an entirely different purpose, what is the point of having a Congress or appropriating money for anything? I’m sure the Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins must be concerned.

If we lived in a functioning democracy, major newspapers would run Page 1 editorials pleading with people to vote out the Republicans to save us from a fascist dictatorship. But most of the mainstream media have run out of bravery, if they ever had any.
