Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Why is this man still the Senate Minority leader? What a useless weirdo
"People are aroused," Chuck Schumer says. "I haven't seen people aroused in a very, very long time...I think democracy will have an effect."

The nice thing about all these wonk guys going full mask off is the pretense of them actually being smart has been dropped and we can now clearly see them for the resentful little creeps they have always been
I guess I'm too woke because I find the proliferation of this really off-putting and gross. The fact that it's now reached the "enlightened centrists" class is depressing.

Oh, per @nbcnews.com: Quaker groups file suit over the end of policy restricting ICE arrests in houses of worship.

Note: Quakers were some of the earliest supporters of Sanctuary, even putting out a booklet on the topic in 1984 (it's still available). www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

The suit appears to be the first from a faith-based organization challenging the change in court.

AI became cheaper today. If the market had known how to make money with AI, rather than from AI. Stock markets would have gone up, not down.

Every tech guy wants to introduce something game-changing like the smart phone and all they got is "office meetings with a pair of giant goggles strapped to your head" or "chatbot that can't spell strawberry" and they're going to destroy society if we don't pretend these are necessary to our lives

Congressman: (tweeting) Webster’s dictionary defines “reeducation camp” as a facility for imprisoning political dissidents. Which is why I have serious concerns that must be addressed before I vote for the Build Reeducation Camps Act

remember, the blitzkrieg is intended to make you feel like there is nothing you can do about it; that’s the only reason to go forward in this haphazard and sloppy manner all in the first week

and the choice of that strategy tells you they are afraid you *will* do something about it
