Weird how the ‘common sense’ people never seem to use that common sense to get thru basic fucking shit, such as school.

Shane Gillis is living breathing proof that you need to earn the title of history buff before you claim it. Stolen reading valor doesn’t even describe the stupidity.

Going out on a limb, but I think it's bad for the world's richest man to have his own pet federal judge he can direct all his cases to.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Well, if you were wondering exactly which parts of history the Trump regime is going to purge from the Smithsonian museums, they've helpfully listed it out. It's exactly as fascistic as you've feared. www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202...

The root problem is anti-socialism, but it's telling how they're mobilizing ageism here. The notion that people in their late twenties / early thirties are too young to develop city policy is absurd.

An interesting subtext here. We do indeed spend vast sums on our military. So the idea here appears to be that without "forever wars" we need to occupy our own cities.

Being right wing is so hard bc you’re not allowed to acknowledge any actual phenomena that shape the world, so when you try to describe something you just end up sounding like if a person speaking in tongues worshipped the internet instead of god

Sam Altman is Elizabeth Holmes. OpenAI is Theranos. Their big lie is “AGI”. We are witnessing what happens when Silicon Valley and investors run out of ideas yet desperately want to cling to wealth and power. OpenAI will fail, Sam Altman will fall, and the AI industry will collapse behind them.

When he reached the Israeli prison, U.S. human rights defender Chris Smalls was physically assaulted by seven uniformed individuals. They choked him and kicked him in the legs, leaving visible signs of violence on his neck and back.
When his lawyer met with him, Chris was surrounded by six members of Israel’s special police unit. This level of force was not used against other abducted activists.The Freedom Flotilla Coalitions condemn this violence against Chris and demand accountability for the assault and discriminatory treatment he faced.

Hakeem Jeffries is cooked.
Mamdani in 2022:

After at least 2,251 Palestinians were killed over the course of July 2014, Hakeem Jeffries got on stage at a rally in NYC and paraphrased George Wallace.

“Israel today, Israel tomorrow, Israel forever.”

If Jeffries is considered a progressive, the term has lost all meaning.

Why would anyone care what Sydney Sweeney s personal politics are? What matters is who and what she serves. Accepting money from a corporation capitalizing on what they openly refer to as her “great genes” is not something any thinking person would do while expecting zero consequences.
