"may"? FUCKING "may"? Fuck completely off

I think we need to be crystal clear about how Trump's creation of a nationwide police force—loyal only to him—threatens to create a feedback loop of lawlessness in which our constitutional right to dissent may vanish. slate.com/news-and-pol...

It is now beyond debate that one of Donald Trump’s key goals is the creation of a national police force that is loyal to him alone. To that end, the president has repeatedly federalized the National Guard—often over governors’ objections—and deployed troops to invade blue cities whose residents oppose his administration. He has also transformed Immigration and Customs Enforcement into a kind of secret police that targets, with especially sadistic brutality, journalists, protesters, and others exercising their First Amendment rights. Trump’s multifaceted attack on the Constitution creates a feedback loop of lawlessness: He first erodes the structural limits on his authority, then exploits his newly unchecked power to trample the people’s freedom to dissent.

Yes, the ever present struggle to not be annoying is genuine and uncomfortably relatable

Dems, unironically: "Those guys everyone calls nazis and we freely call threats to our democracy might have a point about trans people"

Stephen Miller is murdering Venezuelans and Colombians in cold blood bc he believes it helps his propaganda campaign to paint Latinos as dangerous.

Stephen Miller views the air strikes as an opportunity to paint immigrants as a dangerous menace, according to one of the White House officials.

I tend to end up making more large single purchases than as many small little purchases. I don't eat out as often as friends, and didn't go out much at all until after I moved up here and got the best job I've had. Unemployment made me want to enjoy having income a little more, at least for now

My first ex was way more flippant with their spending despite complaining way more about not having enough. They'd eat out often, and spend a lot on streamers, would always whine about being broke, but also not ever actually be out of money. It was weird

Every single source on the subject, even israel itself, claims they could not do anywhere near what they are doing without the US backing them. Period. End of discussion. If the US turned off the tap, Israel would grind to a halt

Imagine thinking the people who don't want any genocide at all, for anyone, are the problem. Fuck off, you amoral genocide apologist

Genocide was, is, and will forever be a deal breaker. Just because Hitler is on the ballot doesn't meant diet Hitler is suddenly okay
