Remember, too, that Hegseth would have been rejected if a single additional Republican senator — or, JD Vance — had joined Sen. Collins, McConnell, and Murkowski in voting no with the Democrats. See: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

I worked in video stores for 25 years, ending up as one of the dead-eyed drones packing up the best store ever in 2015. I wrote millions of words—for free—applying my overeducated talents to keeping it alive. My friends joined me for the last, ever.

In the last week, Donald Trump has called for the murder of Congressional Democrats and threatened to unilaterally declare an invasion of Venezuela.

If Congressional Republicans followed the Constitution, both of these would be removable offenses. But, they’re loyal to Trump, not the constitution.

Time to stop writing, & reporting a "possibility". The people need to see charges. Consequences. Done with threatening this without actually doing it. No such latitude for immigrants. Legitimate allowances offering protection asylum seekers, denied

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

Heroes. Every day. Oh, and fuck the #NYPD and #ICEAreNazis.
Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.

New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

The midterms need to result in impeachment and removal of Trump and anyone else it’s possible to impeach and remove. Anything less is unsatisfactory. They also need to be in jail

Trumplings are fascist scumbags for sure but that includes being stupid, nasty little brats at heart, lashing out wildly at a world that (correctly) loathes them
Oh nothing. Just a major conservative activist, former staffer for Chuck Grassley and a former clerk for Justice Neil Gorsuch calling me a "retarded pussy." Fun stuff on X, the everything site.

The only reason to have the military in D.C. is to increase tensions and antagonize people to the point they over-react, creating "justification" for increasing crackdowns on innocent people. It's all a con.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

When asked about the death of a W. Virginia National Guardsman, the President of the United States bragged about his electoral margin in her state.

When asked about the shooter, he called the reporter a stupid person.

Please stop holding quarter for anyone supporting this monstrous piece of shit.

Trump is happy this happened today.

He doesn't give a damn about the lives of those Guardsmen.

Don't fall for it. Trump has been waiting for an excuse for a military dictatorship.

It took only a few hours for President Donald Trump to turn what he called “an act of evil, and an act of terror” into a full-blown argument for an even more intense crackdown on immigration.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷
