The conservative intelligentsia and media-industrial complex has been publicly masturbating about getting to kill people for years now, they are orders of magnitude worse than even the MAGA base. Everybody knows this, it's just politically incorrect to say it.
miller is regularly blamed but vance is not held to any account at all for having started the chain of events that got us here
As JD Vance starts trying to play "nice Gestapo" to Steven Miller's "mean Gestapo," it's worth emphasizing that what's happening in Minnesota is a direct descendant of Vance's knowingly false racist demagoguery during the campaign. "Somalis are low-IQ thieves" is "Haitians are eating your pets."

Gangs of New York prestige TV adaptation lets go
The foxy boxing scene from Death by Lightning makes me realize we need more shows that take place in late 19th Century New York City. It was an absolutely insane place. We just have The Knick, or maybe The Gilded Age if it got any good after the first few episodes IDK.

Bravest motherfuckers you've ever seen. They just saw a neighbor get murdered and still out there. Maybe let's see some local officials with the power to arrest show as much backbone as these voters PAYING YOUR FUCKING SALARY
Live updates: Around 200 people marched more than two miles from the scene of the shooting to Minneapolis City Hall, shouting “ICE out now!” after police hurried away from the scene Wednesday afternoon.
The crowd of is continuing to snake its way through downtown.

Like what do you mean everything is intentionally engineered to suck and we’re destroying our planet for the immediate gratification of shareholders rather than building something good and sustainable for us all?

It's so fucking refreshing, and so fucking cool, to see a politician that loves the city he lives in and represents. Cities are the Real America. Both in practice and in the ideal.

the fact that there is free parking at all in manhattan is wild to me
“Pairing free buses with paid parking says we value people in motion more than cars at rest,” writes Nicolas Rohatyn.
Opinion | The Way to Pay for Free Buses Is to End Free Parking
Free buses would be transformative not only for riders, but for the ecosystem of the city as a whole.

Not going to read too much into it, obviously Trump is the worst man alive, and is going to revert to saying the most odious shit imaginable in like an hour, but it's funny that this is coming a couple hours after 90 democrat losers voted to say "socialism is bad" for no reason.
