Congrats to Ryan Grim, Tyler Austin Harper, and so many others for caping for the hugest American imperialists since Woodrow Wilson as an isolationist pacifist just to score points against the Dem nominee, working out great for all of us

We didn't need to do this. And we would not have done it for any Democrat ever, & not a single Republican prior to this One Special Boy. It's maddening.
“Lebensraum: is it prudent fiscal policy?”

Again, one thing I was completely wrong about is that I believed there was a baseline level of professional pride & integrity below which supposedly serious journalists would not sink in the face of the far right authoritarianism.

Wine moms have been right since 2016 but some people have unresolved parent issues and won’t forgive them for wearing cringe hats

Children will die with RFK Jr.'s new vaccine recommendations. We're NOT doing the "experts disagree" game. The US vaccine schedule was painstakingly constructed through a deep & thorough process by experts with unquestionable expertise. This is policy by fiat. It is pre-meditated murder. 1/

If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.
A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

Did Trump also kidnap the Epstein Files?
Whatever happened with the DOJ’s requirement to release the files, explain the redactions, and catalog everything they had?

this store is 18+ and they’re strict as hell about it. none of this has ever been about “protecting children,” it’s about trying to force trans people to disappear
After a boutique on South Street received a warning letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for selling breast binders for gender-affirming care, the region’s transgender community worries about the potential wider impacts.

"JD Vance argues Venezuela attack will help curb fentanyl crisis." Vance is LYING. Fentanyl as Vance knows does not come from Venezuela. Please don't underestimate the EVIL of Vance. He will kill your family and then make up lies to justify it. I'm being literal. Vance is very dangerous.

yep. i can identify any number of structural issues but at the end of the day the basic problem is the republican party. this has been apparent for at least 20 years. it is also an incredibly unpopular observation to make among “serious” people.
Right.
If you want a good explanation of why the American system of government worked well enough for 200 years and then suddenly stopped, it's because Republicans in Congress suddenly started letting their partisan interests COMPLETELY override their institutional interests

the *only* thing that REALLY, TRULY matters is that in November, 2024 this country decided that they wanted Donald Trump & the GOP to be back in charge of everything, and no amount of angrily replying to whatever Congressional staffer is manning their Bluesky account can change that.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

A comment on this dog shit analogy: the dynamic rn is not that we're asking for the exterminator to come & theyre refusing to, its that we've kicked the exterminator out of the house & theyre saying "i cant take care of the roaches unless you let me back in the house" & Adams response is "fuck you"
regret to inform that a nation doesn't have ownership like a house. You can't just call up liberals to solve your problems.
