I think we should throw Matt in jail, for what it's worth.
The distance in time between now and when Microsoft Office replaced drop down menus with the ribbon bar at the top is the same as the distance between then and the fall of the Berlin Wall

"Jews are not all the same" is a crucial lesson that a troublingly large number of people need to learn.
an occasional reminder that while JStreet and AIPAC are both lobbying groups for Israel they are not the same and in fact fucking hate each other

The potential to jam the House feels like an under-discussed aspect of yesterday's deal.
If I had to guess: the House never reconvenes. The whole purpose of last night's "deal" was to make the Democrats complicit in everything that has done on. MAGA has no intention of saving the ACA, and reopening the House would cause a vote on the Epstein documents.
MAGA wants a dictatorship.

I wish everyone would headline this BS with “the mentally unwell president, who is oblivious to his position’s limits, believes he has ‘pardoned’ criminals guilty of state crimes. He has not and his actions do not, in fact, pardon the criminals.”

The results from a year ago gave us really bad options and worse options, and we have people On Here a year later excitedly talking about primarying Schumer like there's a "Stop the Bad Things Happening" button that Democrats refuse to press
People are starting to realize that their One Weird Trick isn't going to fix what's ailing the country, but rather than try something more productive, they're getting angry at elected officials who know that there is no secret button that will take them to before the 2024 election.

If you think Chuck Schumer should be kicked out as the Senate minority leader, I think you really ought to identify a specific, non-hypothetical Democrat in the Senate who could do better.

I will never get over how little the public understands of how dishonest Trump is. Almost nothing he says is true.
Trump said he’d be “honored” to release SNAP funds with guidance from the courts.
Today, he got that guidance from Judge John McConnell in Rhode Island, FOR THE SECOND TIME.
And he immediately appealed.

The democratic socialist future of America will require millions of Leslie Knopes doing the thankless work of the bureaucracy required to provide services to the people. If you think people like her are "neoliberal shills," you're not really a democratic socialist, you're just a cosplayer.

Sir, this is a Wendy's.
The reason 30 Rock succeeds years later while parks and rec has aged like a toilet full of milk, is that 30 Rock doesnt shy away from portraying Liz Lemon as an obvious villian with a victim/hero complex, whereas Leslie Knope was played just a straight hero character, even tho she is a neolib shill

Mind-blowing to me every time he says something like this that no one says "isn't it your job to know? Will you find out and get back to us so that we can inform the public? What's your plan to address this?"
RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.

I don't know if this guy is a Nazi, but I do know that this guy is okay with Nazis, and no one should ever let him forget it.
You are such a breath of fresh air after being told by 100s of ppl on this app that Graham is a Nazi & I am a Nazi for supporting him. Do they think these massive crowds - from hs students like my niece to therapists & teachers like my brothers & artists like my Taiwanese wife — are all Nazis?
Yes, he was an ass as a kid. But he saw, and he went back to land. Alot did.
I don't know him, I ain't a constituent.
But I do believe the fact he walked away from it, worked his butt off farming and has the balls to speak truth deserves a second, and third look.
Maine folks are hard to snooker.

I am grateful that the Supreme Court knows exactly what it will be getting if it reverses the Federal Circuit and the Court of International Trade.
Trump is pissed about an ad that Canada recently ran in the U.S. showing Ronald Reagan talking about tariffs in 1987.
