you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

After many years of just living with gutters on the house that were always full of debris and sagging due to lack of strapping, we finally bit the bullet and had everything cleaned, repaired, and installed screens. Next up, exterior paint. Gotta use our dollars while they still have some value...

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

America has long feared it would suffer the same fate as the Roman republic, but never quite truly appreciated how utterly absurd Roman elites had become by the time of the late republic.

The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.
The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

Instead of folding like cheap chairs, Democrats should have forced the GOP to end the shutdown by killing the filibuster. Holding onto the archaic, antidemocratic tradition doesn't help them stop fascism, it makes them complicit to it.

Democrats Should Have Let Republicans Kill the Filibuster
Instead of caving on the shutdown, Democrats should have waited for the GOP to cave on Trump’s demand to scotch this antidemocratic tactic.

The US political system is now essentially one fascist-promoting party, one fascist-appeasement party, and a few individual outliers, people called nasty names for suggesting policies every other industrialized country has had for decades. And masked thugs keep kidnapping people off the streets.

We got five days of hope. Five. That's all they gave us before this complete betrayal. The Democratic party needs to go as extinct as the Federalists. Brits may deep six Labour in favor of their Greens (fingers crossed), we need to a real anti-fascist, progressive party here.

People are going to die because of the GOP and the 8 D traitors in the Senate. I don't believe in an afterlife but oh how I wish there were a hell for them all to burn in. Instead I will wish on them every ounce of suffering they are inflicting on the many now uninsured Americans.
