When Occupy was happening the media called them the far left. When BLM was happening the media called them the far left. Free Palestine is considered the far left. Trans rights are far left. By that logic center left means giving up control to corporations and destroying the planet.

I never would have thought that the Washington Post would then label me a threat to them and purge me from their pages — after putting my life on the line to call for justice after Jamal’s murder. Cruelty upon cruelty upon cruelty.

If I had a dollar for every liberal who's told me "GWB doesn't look so bad now!" I could afford the therapy I need to deal with my repressed anger.

Last week GA Republicans threw a Hail Mary to ward off what'll be some surprising electoral failures this year with an "emergency" month long gas tax break. Now they're hiding the ACA premium horrors until just before Election Day. Read more: www.ajc.com/news/2026/10...

"So if you’re listening to Klein’s podcast, make sure to listen to Johnson’s Citations Needed too" Hard disagree. If you're listening to Ezra Klein's podcast, you should seek psychiatric help immediately. Otherwise though, this is a wonderfully perceptive piece on why the NYT is NOT YOUR FRIEND.

If you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.

Gallup polling. "LGBTQ rights" moves between 0 and 1%.

Fox news polling. Wokeness/transgender issues at 0%.

Utterly hilarious that any sentient creature thinks that our Supreme Courts gives a shit about our Constitution save for twisting it to turn corporations into people and money into speech. We're fucked until it's un-packed, and that'll take a concerted effort with a complete 2029 regime change.

From Twitter. fattys_revenge writes "Every season of Reacher so far has been great, and I understand why they may be avoiding the earlier novels due to their slightly less standalone nature, but every year I'm sad to learn that next season won't be the book where he kills his way through a white supremacist militia camp"
Alan Ritchson replies, "My favorite book. Fun fact: I had it approved until someone got re-elected."
