This kind of All Night Revival is the only kind their brand of Christianity will accept.

What "break"? Even if the Felon disappeared tomorrow, the machine would still be in place: Vought, Miller, Thiel, Musk, Vance, Leo, the Extreme Supremes, Putin et al. They have nothing to lose at this point by finally conceding that 47 is a very sick person.

So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running don’t.

And Speaker Mike Johnson won’t let the House come back to work. So basically they’re on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks.

Did I get that right?

It seems clear—I think to everyone, now—that a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

Seriously, where is that $1.19 gas?

If the CNN morons weren't so busy trying to kiss ass, they might have noticed that the gas station behind the long-extinct Winchell's is advertising $1.19/gal.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

Oh, it's all OK as long as it's happening to those who oppose the Reich.

The Oregon Republican Party tried to help Donald Trump make the case for military intervention in Portland with an image of a fiery protest — but since Portland is calm, they had to fabricate one by merging old photos of police in Ecuador and protesters in Brazil www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Republicans post fake image of Oregon protest – using photos of South America

A federal judge had blocked Trump’s request to deploy California national guard to Portland

The Supreme Court wants to allow conversion therapy so that's why we have oral arguments in Chiles v. Salazar this morning.

The Supreme Court wanted to allow Christian people to refuse to serve queers, so that's why they issued an advisory opinion in 303 Creative v. Elenis.

Everything is rigged.

Trump is exercising more power for a fake emergency than Lincoln did for a real one.

Trump Is Destroying the U.S. Constitution and Amassing Unprecedented Powers by Sending Federal Troops to Invade American Cities

Lincoln faced a real insurrection and still did not go as far as this president

3 MAGA extremists have re-intro'd a bill that allows South Carolina to execute women who receive an abortion. If you haven't heard about S 323, it's because corporate media has completely ignored it.

Here's the overview, the sponsors, & how to fight back:

I don’t want to talk about this because I don’t want to be a target

But on just a human decency level the person tirelessly deleting Gazans just permabanned the guy who uses his thousands strong platform to boost the fundraisers of literally anyone who needs money or mutual aid every single Friday

Once again, for the head-smackingeth time, this administration and all the R governors who are happily going along with the war against the American people are NOT inept or stupid. They know exactly what they are doing, and they're doing it enthusiastically. Calling them dumb is part of the problem.

No indication yet from major media that the FBI has any interest whatsoever in investigating this apparent attempted assassination of a well-known judge openly targeted on social media by the far-right activist—Harmeet Dhillon—currently calling herself Assistant Attorney General of the United States

Beachfront home of South Carolina judge, ex-senator burned to ground, injuring 3

Ex-senator Arnold Goodstein, along with two additional people, were rescued by several neighbors and paramedics from a marshy, remote area behind the home after jumping from the fist floor.
