Thoughts on the world from a left of middle perspective. Proudly liberal. Proudly anti-facist and anti-stupidity.

For any dumbass that wants to "both sides are the same" between the D and R's, trump just made the military no longer consider the swastika a hate symbol.
Our gov no longer considers pretty much the most modern blatant symbol of hate, a hate symbol. F off with the "both sides are the same" bs.

Dear Maga : "Actually, 15 is not pedophilia" was a skeezy sick weak attempt at defense when it was neckbeards on reddit trying it. Using it on Fox to defend Epstein and probably trump just makes it worse.

Democrats last week " Dang, standing up to the Republicans did well, look at the elections."

Democrats this week " Whelp, I guess we better stop doing that"

50 year mortgages will not improve affordability. Buying a house at 30 and still owing at 80 is insane. The only people that benefit are the banks.

In the Oval Office press conference, Dr. Oz said Americans would lose, by next year, 135 Billion pounds. There are 340M Americans. Meaning that we would need to lose, on average, 400 lbs each.

Luckily we are going to be paying 1500% percent less for the drugs to enable this.

I have the tiniest tiniest bit of hope that after tonight the Democrats will realize that chasing mythical swing voters in the center is a losing strategy and that consistent messaging about how your policies will help working and middle class people wins races.

Halliburton will be flying their flags in Iraq at half mast.

Most of them benefit from socialism…

Let them eat cake!

Trump, the night before millions of americans lose their SNAP aid, hosting a Great Gatsby style feast full of scantily clad dancers. This is what "Christians" in america largely support.

No. 467 ranked Junior Golfer Kai Trump has received a exemption to make her LPGA tour debut.

I thought they wanted to make women's sports fair? Sounds to me like there are a few hundred young women more deserving of the spot. I guess DEI is ok when the inclusion is nepotism?

Yes, it sucks that trump is building a ballroom. But I'm 1,000 times more concerned about the destruction of democracy and the creation of a dictator than I'm concerned about the destruction of the east wing of the whitehouse

I suppose at this point I shouldn't be surprised at anything, and considering the other checks that have gone out the window, but I will admit I'm a bit surprised a president can just tear down chunks of a historical building like the white House and slap on some gaudy ballroom.

Trump in 2017: “Qatar has been a funder of terrorism at a very high level.”

Amazing that all it costs to get a foreign airbase belonging to a terrorist funding country inside the USA is a used jet and a golf course.

I feel like there is a term for one state sending troops into another state against the will of the democratically elected leadership of the state.

This man is running health and human services.

You could honestly pick, completely at random, any first year medical resident, and give them the job and they would be vastly more qualified.

I think those opposed to trump are putting too much weight and hope on the Epstein files. There has been plenty of available evidence that trump r**ped kids, and the Republicans have excused or ignored it. Unless the Epstein files have videos, I can't imagine it changes any minds.

The term “structural violence” is one way of describing social arrangements that put individuals and populations in harm's way. Exactly what trump threatened today regarding healthcare and the shutdown fight. Structural violence threats after weeks of stochastic terrorism.

In high school I used to like to go down to Dealey Plaza and argue with the conspiracy nuts about JFK. I'm not a conspiracy guy.

I don't trust anything coming from our FBI at this point.

Does JD not know that the Republicans control all three branches of the government?

Ice cream sales and shark attacks rise during the summer months.

Correlation does not equal causation. It'd be awesome if our government understood this.

I wish it was self awareness. In reality he's just setting up for continuing the purge of anyone not blindly loyal to the regime..

So, trump was an FBI informant about a Democrat hoax?

Their desperation reeks.
