Tim Walz: "None of the Republicans running for governor had the damn common decency to Melissa and Mark's children. They've asked them to stop doing what they're doing. You need to ask those people running for governor if they would ask the president to please stop attacking the Hortman children."

I am once again asking the media to treat it as a huge fucking scandal that the Vice President of the United States has pickled his brain in white supremacist, antisemitic garbage babble
Curtis Yarvin has written a very long screed in defense of his post in which he said, “Hitler spoke the truth.”

A sampling of select portions is below and includes, in reference to Jewish people, the words:

“The only way to tell is the name and the nose.”

If I understand correctly, Nevada's logic is that Boring Co. violated the law SO MUCH after its _first_ consent decree, that the fine for all instances would be unduly burdensome, whereas $240,000 should be plenty to deter Elon Musk in the future.

I think the 'King Trump defecates on America from his jet' video should be played and replayed at every opportunity, and in one Dem ad after another.
I know MAGAcore thinks it's funny, but I think most other people are still, even at this late date, shocked by its crudity. It cuts through the noise

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office.

Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.
