They have nothing to charge them with because these are fishermen, and it’s not illegal to survive an unprovoked murder attempt by a foreign military.
Those men are super dangerous drug smuggling terrorists, which is why . . . we are letting them go.

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.

Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

Here's how this needs to go:
– per the early 2029 transfer of power, Trump departs Washington on a USAF 'special air mission' flight, as is custom;
– a pre-written order from the new president directs the pilots to proceed to Schiphol Airport;
– a waiting car at Schiphol takes him to the Hague.
Trump is no longer even pretending to have any kind of argument that his murdering of people in the Caribbean Sea has any kind of statutory validity. Just straight up declaring that he has quasi-unlimited power to execute people based on (nominal) suspicion.

the right has long labored under the misconception that ordinary liberals have always hated them and their way of life with a burning passion, something which is only just now becoming true

We have a planet that supports life without some claustrophobic fakakta hamster setup and I'm fucking sick of hacks like Musk talking about Earth like it's a freeloader because it's never deveoped an app. Conservation is not a frivolous yuppy lark any more than air, water and food are.

All or none. Simple shit. And don't tell me it's bad strategy, that just means you're someone who can't be trusted in a foxhole.

Conceding any ground to the right on this is what got us here in the first place.
reposted this today because the inverse is also true:

if you abandon trans people right now, you are abandoning civil rights period.

if you can't stand up for trans people when it matters, no one should, or will, ever trust you when the bullseye moves to the next target.
the thing about trans rights is that we fight the civil rights issues of our time. nazi chuds have made this the issue of our time.

it's not more *important* than other civil rights issues, but it is the battleground of the moment, and we have to meet the moment to support everyone's rights.

Everyone's screaming about how the left doesn't compromise and I keep saying I will vote for this guy. I am a communist who will vote for a billionaire. Centrists, tell me about even one instance when you have compromised like anything close to this. Or at all.
I made a promise to the women of Illinois — as governor, I will ensure your medical decisions will be your own.

Now, we continue fulfilling that promise.

Public colleges will now provide contraception and medication abortion at on-campus pharmacies and student health centers.

I hate so much how people talk now. This is from a statement where she's explaining she would've voted yes had she been back in DC in time. But then there has to be a part about how foreign policy shouldn't be done from Congress anyway, so...it's good that she didn't? Unfair that we want her to?
