I don’t think you need to sacrifice New York City to a Trump-collaborating sex criminal to make that happen.
What do you imagine that fixes?
There’s no recovering from the Burrito Taxi incident. His whole ass was shown that day. All that’s left is to become the Discourse Clown and hope you strike gold with 19-year-old contrarians who were too young to slap together a political identity during Chapo’s golden age.
You guys the comrades on here are anxious to let you know they don’t care about the White House AT ALL because they are not privileged like you. Meanwhile their friend is like “pfft hold my beer, I am so advanced I am indifferent to 9/11. Top that, bitches.”
I mean, yes, this has been true. Still unclear what tangible benefit stems from congratulating Donald Trump on ICE.
I can’t understand what his objective is here.
What’s confounding is that this isn’t even a novel approach to fielding non-establishment candidates. We tried looking the other way on some very obvious right-coded red flags and now John Fetterman is a U.S. Senator. I’m begging us to learn this lesson the first time.
To be absolutely clear, this is the Trump Monument.
If we’re fortunate enough to have a next president, we’re going to have to demolish this eyesore piece of shit on day one. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
“Do we want any Democratic candidate for office qualifying the intent of his Nazi tattoo for the next 12 months?” is a very clarifying question in how best to proceed here.
I don’t think someone who gets anything tattooed on their body without knowing what it is is intellectually qualified to be a United States Senator.
It is both true and bizarre that the Wall Street Journal is the only national paper doing any reliable straight news reporting on a weekly basis.
Not the WSJ having the only even moderately acceptable push alert here.

NYT and NBC with basic journalism fails here.
We need to actively and aggressively expel the people using these things from social situations. Synonymize their use with being a narc.
No one will die madder than Andrew Cuomo and we should relish this fact.
Yes, they did.
Federal worker: My district went for Trump both in 2016 and 2024, and a lot of my friends supported him. But they didn't vote for the parks to close, health care costs to skyrocket, veterans to lose care, and for tens of thousands of federal employees to be at risk of losing their jobs.
Ask Joe Biden what kind of damage American journalists can do when you freeze them out.
What you have now is a Pentagon press corp in exile, whose only prior incentive not to report on leaks was the threat of losing their access. With that threat realized by other means, I don’t know what Hegseth expects to bargain with the next time he gets caught boofing vodka in the courtyard.
Scottie P went in with his eyes wide open!
Anyone know where Himmler got his inspiration for Nazi symbology? Anyone? Bueller?
Oh for fuck's fucking sake he got it covered with a Norse Ragnarok tattoo of Fenrisulfr devouring the world
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner tells AP he got a new tattoo to cover one seen as a Nazi symbol.
“My brother got ‘I Shit My Pants’ tattooed on his forehead. In his Junior Firefighters’ Club, ‘shit’ means ‘extinguish’ and ‘my pants’ means ‘fires’. As he’s told me many times, “just be glad you don’t understand””
The weirdest part for me is this evident expectation that the rest of the Democratic base should eat what they’re fed and be happy about it, which is very much a relic of a sturdier Obama-era consensus that no longer exists.
Yeah, at what point did we forget that we’re running against a party with a legitimate Nazi problem that is looking for any possible way to both-sides the issue?
When they were actual operatives, the PSA guys functioned in a top-down framework that worked because you had effective party leadership that could demand people ignore uncomfortable truths in exchange for tangible political benefits. The establishment Dem treat jar is mostly empty now, though.
