Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/

One of my least rational beliefs is that if you pull off a heist without hurting anyone or getting caught within a day, that's your stuff fair and square.

You know how billionaires end up with severe cognitive deficits as a result of becoming surrounded by yes men who constantly tell them their every idea is genius? What if we made a bot that just does that to everyone. I think that would be a good idea.

It’s so funny that for the past week republicans have all been like “the only people out there are gonna be Hamas.” Everyone in this crowd is signed up for Kohl’s rewards points.

That attempted Kenny Dillingham interview was the greatest moment in sports media since that Oregon State player yelled FUCK into the ref’s mic a few weeks ago

Also still believing that fascism vs not fascism is a political disagreement is such a self-own! Imagine telling everyone that you have a fourth grader’s understanding of the world. “I want to hear more from the people who don’t think we should have any more elections and I think that’s noble”

Easy to forget or even outright miss if you don't follow things like me but North Carolina Democratic Party was the first, and I believe remains the only, state Democratic Party to label Israel an apartheid state and call for a total arms embargo, offensive and defense, until apartheid ends.

Can report back from the Charlotte No Kings that "free Palestine" is now, if not the normie lib position, then at least fully accepted among the normie libs. Lots of signs and flags scattered about, no apparent drama at all.

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.
