Republicans didn't give Obama or Biden credit for anything.

You don't owe Trump anything.

He's a reckless moron always being played by Netanyahu who will continue to occupation and destruction of the Palestinian people.

It's pretty wild a large portion of the internet tried to fabricate a scandal surrounding Hasan using a shock collar in the same day that Asmongold was saying that ICE agents should shoot protesters with live ammunition

please do not fall for this, there is no shock collar nor is there a fob. tectone (the guy who's father is in the congressional record for being the army's rape monster), kiwifarms, ethan klein, etc are trying to spread this because they are trying to find another venue to get hasan kicked off.

My statement on the two year anniversary of October 7, 2023.

“Two years ago today, Hamas carried out a horrific war crime, killing more than 1,100 Israelis and kidnapping 250 more. I mourn these lives and pray for the safe return of every hostage still held and for every family whose lives were torn apart by these atrocities.

In the aftermath of that day, Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government launched a genocidal war: adeath toll that now far exceeds 67,000; with the Israeli military bombing homes, hospitals, and schools into rubble. Every day in Gaza has become a place where grief itself has run out of language. I mourn these lives and pray for the families that have been shattered. Our government has been complicit through it all.

This must end. The occupation and apartheid must end. Peace must be pursued through diplomacy, not war crimes, and our government must act to end these atrocities and hold those responsible to account.

These last two years have demonstrated the very worst of humanity. We must answer it by modeling the very best: a relentless pursuit of our higher ideals and an unwavering commitment to universal human rights.”

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

Oregon AG Rayfield: The first thing that might’ve told you the federal government wasn’t doing so hot was when they started off some of their arguments by talking about Truth Social as their source of facts.

Actually got a comment from the judge: “Is this really how you’re going to move forward?”

Holy shit, only twenty minutes into Ryan Murphy’s Ed Gein show and it amazingly bad. Starting with a a sexy Ed Gein is a big no and it’s just fucking bizarre. Ed Gein gets turned on by images of the Holocaust which set to that song Jessica Rabbit sings. Second Charlie Hunnam’s sounds like Barney.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

I love how rightwingers keep saying you can’t recognize a Palestinian state because it doesn’t even have any agreed-upon borders.

Erm, are they aware that Israel is one of the only countries in the world that refuses to define its own borders?

Michael Eisner, who served as CEO of Disney for 21 years and acquired ABC while he was in charge, slams his successor Bob Iger for bending the knee.

Where has all the leadership gone? If not for university presidents, law firm managing partners, and corporate chief executives standing up against bullies, who then will step up for the first amendment? The
"suspending indefinitely" of Jimmy Kimmel immediately after the Chairman of the FCC's aggressive yet hollow threatening of the Disney Company is yet another example of out-of-control intimidation. Maybe the Constitution should have said, "Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, except in one's political or financial self-interest." By-the-way, for the record, this ex-CEO finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny.
