Democrats (and democrats) just winning elections forever is not enough. The criminals & authoritarians need to never be allowed back into government, let alone elite polite society.

Aside from being a cheater who disgraced the game & should never be anywhere near baseball again, Alex Rodriguez is spouting nonsense about what bullpens can & can't do. He seems not to realize Aaron Ashby exists.

Musk is trying to help the regime steal the midterms by spreading lies and misinformation. Democrats and progressive organizations need to treat X like a fascist propaganda network—because it is. X will be part of their campaign to deny the results and refuse to seat duly elected representatives.

Don't. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspaper (Or. Online). Zelenskyy is not the one who "risks rupture." This is all on the far right authoritarian president. Stop it.

Russia steps up bid to kill European defence chiefs, spy agencies warn

Again, one of the main reasons why "We can't give Ukraine all the weapons they need to defeat Russia now, lest NATO also end up in a war with Russia" was such an unserious view in 2022-23, is that NATO has already basically been in an undeclared war with Russia for years:

I'm sure he posted about it at the Nazi Bar run by the guy who is a Nazi & committed unprecedented constitutional crimes & is responsible for the mass murder of hundreds of thousands because of dismantling USAID. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

As tiresome as the journalists who come here, follow 100 people, complain that they get no engagement & too much heat, & then go back to the Nazi Bar.

I do know what a balk is. That's not a balk.
