O'Hara: "There's folks that are masked, they may be kidnapping people. We have had those reports. The community should know that if you see something like that, you should call 911. Let's not forget -- we very recently had tragedy in this state by someone who was purporting to be law enforcement."

Just a reminder that all claims that NATO expansion is a threat to Russia are posted by useful idiots who have fallen for the Kremlin's longstanding propaganda and should not be taken seriously because they're nonsense.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

They demonstrated pretty conclusively that they understand how to cover pardons as if they are huge scandals when they ran multiple days of banner headlines and scolding op-eds and follow ups when Biden pardoned Hunter exactly one year ago.

They just choose not to for trump because they like him
It’s wild how the press is ok with the president abusing the pardon power. That used to be one of the most scrutinized things about a presidency.

When a Trump official says, "That was an activist judge who ruled against us", they want you talking about the judge, not the crime. A judge is a judge. If you don't like the ruling, you can appeal. But you can't ignore it.

Who are Trump’s goons? Who does he call to intimidate/harass/threaten #GOP legislators? What/who activates the terrorism? This seems to be accepted as Trump politics now but these actions are crimes.

Closing the airspace over a foreign country is a de facto declaration of war but we’ve pushed so far into “let’s conspicuously underreact so everyone knows we’re savvy people not overreacting to Trump” that his de facto declaration of war is literally not even being reported on the news

ICE will need to be abolished and those that worked there incarcerated. They are either participating or covering up crimes. No bail this time boys

The New Deal wasn’t built on a promise that there would be “no ceiling” for the richest Americans.

Quite the opposite, in fact. FDR knew its politics could only work if he singled out the rich as villains and knew that its policies could only work if the rich paid their fair share in taxes.

EPA just okayed PFAS “forever chemicals” on produce. Protect yourself by choosing organic, avoiding sludge-fertilized farms, buying local, and asking grocers to reject PFAS. Shifting spending to PFAS-free farms pressures the industry to stop.

"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

Isn’t this something that should be investigated? What are the details related to this pardon? Who requested that a pardon be considered on behalf of Juan Hernandez. What documents, emails exist? Was anything of value offered? Who was involved in the process?

"Assaults against ICE up 1,153% in 11 months" news article today

Missing, the percentage of Assaults citizens take from ICE, and how much they increased by.

When I see reporting like this, all I can think of is

This is a damn Hometown Referee calling things.

The reason the top 10% of income earners pay more than half of all tax revenue is NOT because they are taxed more than ever.

Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.

They are paying more because their INCOME has increased astronomically, where the income of the bottom half has

If the entire country were filled only with immigrants instead of native born Americans, crime would go way down and we'd all be a lot safer.

GUARDIAN: “Per head, 🇺🇸 output is six times China’s, and yet, inexplicably, there seem to be more abjectly poor Americans than Chinese. 🇺🇸 inequality is breathtaking… keeps getting worse…”

Wanting to address this isn’t radical.

They were always going to unleash full-on ethnic cleansing. They were just waiting for a plausible excuse.

Great caller.

The government has stopped even pretending to confront racism, creeping illiberalism, and the widening wealth gap.

Their only offer is to take us to the same bleak destination as Reform and the Tories, just at a slower speed.

This is almost word for word what xenophobes in the 1930s and 1940s said about Miller's Jewish ancestors and relatives. He's so hateful he couldn't possibly recognize that of course.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

When a politician says: we’ll deregulate health insurance and send you a “freedom account” check, ask: freedom to buy what? If insurers don’t offer real policies or can cherry-pick only healthy people, that money is a coupon for a store that’s not open.
