Parnas: A lot of people are saying this idea that, well, Graham Platner hasn’t won statewide, and Janet Mills has.

Platner: We have a number of excellent senators who had never run for office or won a statewide race before.

That’s an argument the establishment makes to protect itself

An extraordinary new policy from the Defense Department that equates basic reporting methods to criminal activity has prompted a revolt among Pentagon journalists that could leave the nation's largest agency and the world's largest military without a press corps.
'Without precedent': Virtually all news outlets reject restrictive Pentagon press policy
The policy would force news organizations to refrain from publishing material not approved by the military. Media lawyers say it violates the 1st Amendment.

The woman who has secured a restraining order is *different* than the woman who called the cops on Mills back in February and accused him of physical abuse before recanting.

This should be considered everywhere. They are kidnapping, abusing, harassing and threatening people who have rights. Every single one of them have rights and they are ignored. What they’re doing is unconstitutional and illegal.
Payback will come.

If we don’t speak up for the communities that Trump is terrorizing right now, we will be next.

His authoritarianism will come for all of us in the end. https://youtu.be/tkaBlgXR8tY?si=bJcUxXZWMrae4kwx

ICE is recklessly throwing tear gas into our neighborhoods and busy streets, including near children at school and CPD officers.

The Trump Administration must stop their deployment of dangerous chemical weapons into the air of peaceful American communities.

The whole linear progress of time thing remains a challenge for MAGA.
A tweet by WeThePeople reads, “Jack Smith was hired months after the raid.” The post quotes a tweet by Aaron Rupar showing Eric Trump in a TV interview, saying, “Sure enough, we find out that Jack Smith is planting manilla folders on the office of my father...” The screenshot shows Eric Trump speaking on a Fox News-style broadcast with a city skyline backdrop.

Remigration was Germany’s non-word in 2023.

While it means to migrate back, it has become a far-right euphemism of forced repatriation. When the far right uses the term, it’s an overtly racist call for forceful mass deportation of non-white immigrants.

In case anyone was wondering about the U.S…

This isn’t a peace plan. It’s a ceasefire. Why is the media calling it a peace plan?

Some of those people are currently on the staff of elected Republicans, in fact. They’re part of the present of the GOP.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

There is simply no equivalent, not even close, of this anywhere on the center or far left. There is no ‘both sides’ here, media.

"Together, the messages reveal a culture where racist, antisemitic and violent rhetoric circulate freely — and where the Trump-era loosening of political norms has made such talk feel less taboo among those positioning themselves as the party’s next leaders."

Can't call them fascists?

I’m pretty sure they don’t even let you *run* for Congress as a Republican unless you’ve got at least one (1) restraining order from a former girlfriend half your age.

Republican Rep. Cory Mills allegedly threatened to release nude images of a 26-year-old woman and to harm her future boyfriends after she ended their relationship.

Now, a judge just ordered Mills, 45, not to come within 500 feet of the defendant & ruled that she is “a victim of dating violence.”

Trump’s administration laid off thousands of federal workers, gutting critical departments: Treasury, HHS, and Education.

What we’re seeing now isn’t new. The shutdown is the new excuse. Create chaos, starve the government, and leave folks struggling while Trump’s billionaire buddies get richer.

Stevens: There’s $1.3 trillion of credit card debt. There are people putting grocery bills on credit cards and then paying interest on them. We are in an affordability crisis. Coffee is up 20%, beef is up 16%, bacon is up over 10%. And now we’re going to see health care costs skyrocket.

Trump bailed out Argentina, who then undercut US farmers by selling their soybeans to China, who used be our biggest customer for soybeans before Trump drove them away with his tariffs.

This is Trump 3D chess in action.

It's hard to take these people seriously.
BREAKING: In an insane moment, Speaker Johnson says that priests being shot with pepper balls, and journalists being arrested doesn't "cross the line..." but the most threatening thing he's seen yet is "naked bicyclists."

I mean, there are a million examples: JD Vance operates in complete bad faith and uses the tactic of deflection to keep opponents on their back foot.

A rational response would be concluding hes a piece of shit and interpreting anything he says accordingly.
