Joe Biden was a good President who did good things, and Kamala Harris would’ve been even better.

Anyway, I just want to hurl the rebel crew from the land I love the best. I don’t see why that should be controversial.

A group of men who regularly rape children decided to ruin the public's perception of trans people in this country for shits and giggles and every time I think about that my heart clenches into a blood-red fist of rage.
And I can't stop thinking about it.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Remember that under the first Trump administration, Puerto Rico had to suffer through the longest power blackout in U.S. history bsky.app/profile/cost...
During his Administration, Hurricane Maria knocked out power to 1.5 million people in Puerto Rico and it didn’t get restored for ABOUT A YEAR! It was the largest blackout in U.S. history. This should be line one of any hurricane recovery political coverage. www.vox.com/identities/2...

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Nah. They want racism more than they want any of those things. They could have voted for Democrats, who created Medicare, Medicaid, CHIP, wanted to fund schools, help them buy homes, help with their medical and educational debts. They chose racism over everything else. I say let them choke on it.

When hatred of liberalism makes up the core of your entire personality I guess it does make sense that eventually you'd start quoting the fucking Nazis, since they *did* publish a lot of choice quotes to own the libs with, I'm sure gazing into that particular abyss will have no negative consequences

Not for nothing, the person who coined the "Kamala is a cop" meme that took off like wildfire in "leftists" circles was a woman who was convicted under Harris' tenure as AG for indecent contact with a minor, a teenage boy.

Early returns in Louisiana’s special election:
The Dem candidate is leading 58.5% to 41.5%. That’s with a third of the vote in.
Context: this is a Dem-held seat but in a district TRUMP carried by 13%, so has been a big/obvious GOP target. Stay tuned.
