I've coached national debate champions but I got nothing to help the people out there saying it's okay for a cop to negligently shoot a baby.

Just checking in on the fact that the U.S. is losing a war, deserves to lose that war, and has no way out of it short of bribing the Iranian government to allow us to cleanly lose.

Ketanji Brown Jackson is the smartest Justice on the Court. This isn't hyperbole or even hype. The right thinks of her as a "DEI hire" and frankly a few liberals are condescendingly dismissive of her too. Nope. She's running a clinic up there.

The Mayor of New York City spent Ramadan at Rikers celebrating with incarcerated people there. Contemplate the logic, values, and philosophy that went into that decision. If we want to save our democracy, and ultimately our planet, this kind of leadership is how we start.

It's hard to internalize the fact that the administration really does believe the Iraq war was "woke" and that they would be able to easily defeat a substantially more powerful nation simply by being based chads

Food for thought: Why wouldn't Gov. Spanberger (who was gutsy enough to announce noncooperation with ICE in her inauguration speech) say, in the SOTU response, "the President is a sexual assaulter who has been credibly accused of r*ping children"? 1/2

Pretty clear that Natalie Harp was responsible for the racist video if trump's telling the truth that he didn't personally post it. She is his thumbs-on social media scribe and has launchpoint access to all content, arguably the only person in that position.

This is a blockbuster report. Last spring, the National Security Agency (NSA) detected evidence of an unusual phone call between an individual associated with foreign intelligence and a person close to Donald Trump, according to a whistleblower’s attorney briefed on the existence of the call.

The Right: If you try to take our guns we will kill you. But if you legally carry a gun, we will also kill you. But if you don't carry a gun, we will also kill you. But if you insult us we will kill you. But if you don't do anything at all we will also kill you.

Dear MAGA: The reason you think protesters are paid is that everything is transactional to you, from women and children's bodies to neighbors helping one another. You can't imagine cooperation, altruistic care or non-monetary or non-social capital value. That's also why you'll lose.

Watched Mother of Flies, the brand spanking new Adams Family (with 1 d) production. Like Hell Hole it'll be a divisive film but I loved it. Pushes boundaries of folk horror, short & sweet & visually one of the most beautiful (sometimes grotesquely beautiful) #HorrorMovies I've seen in a long time.

Jonathan Ross did not suffer internal bleeding as a result of being clipped by Renee Good's car. Nothing in any of the videos indicates this, including the video Ross shouldn't have been recording but did to impress maga fans. DHS is lying & mainstream media is printing their lies with no pushback.
