Watching people pour through the released Epstein files and just thinking how much better things would be if reputible, responsible, morally centered journalists had been fully engaged with the Epstein story from the beginning.

This is, quite literally, the concluding chapter from years of vice signaling as politics. There is no better evidence for how putting Trump, a charlatan and moral void, at the center of our politics for a decade has resulted in the literal rotting of the soul and character this nation.

bush v gore is the hinge upon which basically everything awful from the last quarter century swings on
i don't think that bush v. gore is the *worst* ruling in the history of the supreme court, but i do think it is the most openly *corrupt* ruling in its history. a real disgrace.

It really was like tracer dye running through our institutions. I remember my impression of the Democratic Party changing overnight when they decided the most important thing was maintaining the credibility of the lawless court.

“The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. …There will always be one more thing.”
Imagine the things we could do with our time if we didn’t have to do this bsky.app/profile/chan...
I did my job. And then I did a job that never should have been my responsibility afterwards, sending emails and having meetings about how this was allowed to happen in the first place. Other women scholars had to spend their time explaining to Aspen leadership why this was not ok.

even if she is lying (and we have no reason to think she’s stopped being racist or bigoted or antisemitic), the nature of her lie is notable: it shows us she thinks the permission structure for acceptable public behavior and rhetoric is changing. She’s never been dim, so she’s changing too.
I'm actually shocked. Good on Dana Bash for asking the question, and I genuinely would not have expected Greene to answer the way she did.
BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

Let's be clear here, Labour's asylum policy is now literally that the threat of being tortured in your home country is not a legitimate reason to flee. That is /literally/ what you people support.

The last sentence is an interesting moment in the English language. Of course it's true that these articles hinder the removal of asylum seekers, much like making murder illegal hinders people who want to kill people.
There is no difference in practice between removing rights of individuals and leaving the ECHR. The end outcome is still the same, people lose rights. If human rights are an obstacle to your policy it is not the rights which are the issue, it is your policy. Labour going full Reform at this stage.

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

NeverTrump as a movement did have utility but it was entirely contained to stripping the gop of its intelligentsia and type of guy you want to successfully consolidate a regime, in terms of votes it was meaningless. also its now fully squeezed

Every single one of them can burn in hell, quite frankly. One, there's nothing stopping these rich af losers from buying their way into the arts like Kim Kardashian did. Two, they would have still abused people. Trump would have just concentrated on child stars instead.
