He is half right: it is, indeed, unmatched in history: for totally abandoning its duties as a co-equal branch of government.

“Life is stranger than fiction…”
“Memetic image featuring a still of Baron Harkonnen from the 1984 film Dune, a large man in ornate armor and a dark coat. White text on a black background reads: ‘I like the 1984 film version of Dune, but the characters are a bit far fetched. An obese orange diseased paedophile starting a war for his own selfish needs. Come on. That could never happen.’”

Dave’s Hearn is owed more than an apology (which I doubt he will ever get) - i hope he sues them for damages).

Even in today's climate, there should be one fundamental principle everyone respects: whatever you think about someone in politics, you leave their kids alone.

Actually, it is abundantly clear that free market capitalism cannot coexist with democracy - there has to be government guardrails to restrain the greed and ensure that the system is fair for society writ large.

Dems running for Congress and POTUS must run on Supreme Court reform. A law forcing justices into senior status after 18 years, applicable to the current bench would do the trick. That would force Roberts, Alito, and Thomas into senior status, opening three seats to be filled immediately. 1/

So far, Vance’s foreign policy record is yelling at Zelensky for not thanking Trump enough, campaigning for AfD in Germany and Orban in Hungary, getting rejected by the Pope on his invite to the US, and failing in the Iran negotiations.

Lawrence O’Donnell made a great point. Nixon won his 1972 re-election in a landslide, winning 49 states. In 1974 he resigned. By 1976, you couldn’t find anyone who would admit to supporting him. Looking forward to history repeating itself.

It might be a delay tactic: keep adding amendments that need to be debated and voted on in order to stretch out the process.

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10
a brown wire-haired pup stands on a wooden deck in a grassy yard. he looks at us with golden eyes and his right ear flipped inside out. he has a pipe-shaped stick in his mouth, giving him the appearance of a sophisticated and dapper gentleman. just give him a deerstalker cap and a cloak, and he'd give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.

Going back to that raid on the South Shore apartment building. It hasn't gotten much focus that the goons reportedly traveled the same way Patriot Front does: in UHauls. blockclubchicago.org/2025/09/30/a...
A Budget truck with about five armed men seen inside. It's dark out and the taillights are lit. The photo is attributed to KT O'Loughin.

With Lisa Murkowski now being the poster child for a soulless, immoral white woman, can we now replace “Karen” with “Lisa” when we describe horrible white women?
