Decades of voter complacency and institutional weakness helped Roberts and Alito achieve their lifelong dream. But nothing helped them more than the 2016 voters who refused to help the rest of us keep Trump and the GOP out of the Executive Branch. And they’d learned nothing by 2024, either.

My sister has always said I remind her of Jon Arbuckle. 😑 I, naturally, reject this comparison with extreme prejudice.

Get a load of this pussy. 🤣 Colonel Schlichter. The biggest pussy this side of Hegseth. Yeah, he’s a veteran and a colonel, while I ain’t and will never be made of the right stuff for that. Doesn’t mean shit. He’s a pussy. And I’d tell him so to his face. 😋 townhall.com/columnists/k...

Thread: The reaction by some to Mamdani’s 10/7 statement is a cold reminder that for too many, advocacy for Palestinian rights has always been a flimsy fig leaf for anti-Jewish hatred. For this ilk, even the most cursory acknowledgement of Israeli grief is “softening on the genocide”. 1/6

@crockett.house.gov Check out this bozo. There’s something awe-inspiring about developmentally stunted meatheads who throw spitballs at people above their paygrade, like guffawing third-grade bullyboys mocking kids who read. It’s incredible that stuff like this is written by an adult.

An artifact from what was a more hopeful moment, but also the starting point of the most immediate pathway — the Tea Party — to the horror we‘re facing now. For both reasons these make me sad. #comics #art #politics

Kimmel. Okay, now I’m officially terrified. It was clear that Kirk’s assassination would be the long-anticipated Reichstag-fire sparking a major authoritarian escalation. Well, here we go. With every passing day, our chances of escaping all of this get smaller. The exits are all being sealed.

Democratic politics attracts wimps, weaklings and wusses. Republican politics attracts bullies, nihilists, criminals, predators, degenerates, delusional freaks, Machiavellian sadists, and deeply, deeply unstable psychopaths. ……. ……. The former is all we have against the latter.

I’m 42. Everything that’s happening in the US right now is everything I’ve been fearing since I was fourteen. If I knew, deep down, as a KID, that this is what the Republican Party was on the road to becoming, why could so many political analysts three, four, five times my age not see it?

Bringing up the failures of the leadership is anathema in some liberal/progressive circles. I don’t understand why. I don’t know how it’s even a question that their soporific stupor has been deeply damaging, or how it could ever be mistaken by anyone for strength.
