A lot of my boys write for Liberal Currents, and if you're going to give your money to something besides Ukrainian Military units so they can kill Russians—you should actually give them money.
It's very much worth having a liberalism that's confident in itself.

Larger media outlets have wavered since the first Trump term, but we've remained steadfast in our categorical rejection of MAGA in all its aspects and our affirmation of liberal democracy and the principles that it rests on.

I think it’s worth saying that assuming a ceasefire in place is reached in Ukraine—like with Israel and HAMAS in Gaza—it’ll merely be a temporary suspension in fighting that doesn’t resolve core tensions that created the conflict.
Russia isn’t going to stop wanting to erase Ukrainian sovereignty.

Makes you wonder what Vance will say if Trump orders a US military attack on Venezuela

My daughter and I visited the house we lived in when she was a baby, and she was shocked a 29-year-old Navy guy could afford a nice house in a safe neighborhood.
That wasn’t crazy in 1996 — but today, a nice house is out of reach for so many young people. That has to change.

Union forces had suffered some 5,800 casualties but inflicted twice that on the rebels. When a chaplain asked General Thomas whether the dead should be sorted and buried by state in the new military cemetery, the Virginian who stayed loyal replied "Mix 'em up. I'm tired of states' rights.” (21

Tina Peters' attorney is backing the idea of President Trump using a military raid to free her from a prison in Colorado.
Meanwhile, a bipartisan group of Colorado's county clerks say Gov Polis (D) is betraying election workers with his silence on whether he'll free Peters.

My wokest opinion is that there shouldn’t be any private high schools or elementary schools.
Education is a matter of the common public good and everyone at the K-12 level should have an equal opportunity with the same resources to attain a common educational baseline.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

In Icelandic we have 'Ókind' for monster. But the translation is un-sheep. So everything not a sheep is dangerous.

Brilliant design! When trying to hit a moving target you aim slightly ahead of it.
