anyways i think this is relevant to understanding why the go-to disparagement of dems from the left is "shitlib" and the go-to disparagement of republicans from the right is "republican in name only"--and maybe why one strategy has been somewhat more effective than the other

Himes on the difference between Trump's boat strikes and Obama's drone strikes: "The most important distinction is that Congress authorized the war on terror ... the original sin of this whole thing is that there is no congressional authorization."

A MAGA grandpa in Wyoming called 911 and told the operator to “call ICE” on an Amazon delivery driver simply for speaking Spanish.

“There’s this guy in front of my house who can’t speak English. You need to call ICE on him.”

Only fair….as in Ukraine!

Russia destroyed large parts of Ukraine. Therefore, Russia should be made to pay for the rebuilding…..and Israel should do the same for Gaza!

All peace initiatives attempting to make deals with Russia are as meaningless as Budapest Memorandum, Minsk I, Minsk II, etc.

There is nothing funny about this. Just like there’s nothing funny when the men violently smash cake in their bride’s face.

It’s designed to humiliate and degrade

It’s designed to show dominance

It’s a big red flag about what’s to come

If a man does this to you on your wedding day, divorce him

This war in Russian imperial ambitions cannot be frozen because the aggressor, Russia, can thaw it at a very convenient time

& then not only Ukraine, but other countries would be the object of further Russian aggression

Because you can never trust Russians
