In 200 years historians will know for sure when the last properly free election under the 1789 constitution was but I'm pretty confident it's not any later than 2016 and probably more like 2010 or 2012.

That assumes they count *any* of them as free which, maybe not.

Every time I see there's a big swim competition I think "is this the year we finally see Katie Ledecky doping allegations?" Spoiler: it never is. This person has like the fastest 25 times ever in her event and nobody thinks she's on gear? She's definitely on gear.

I don't think this is fair given that the Biden admin (she was his VP!) was pretty fucking terrible on Gaza and while Trump hasn't been good, IDK if it's clear that he's worse than Biden was or if Israel is worse and Trump hasn't tried to stop them.
a reasonable amount of 'Kamala Harris will be the same/worse than Trump on Gaza' insanity was just straightforward anti-semitism about having a Jewish husband.

This all ends with Schumer cutting a deal to leave trump in power in exchange for clinton getting off with no consequences.

Breathless praise of this disgusting creature and his horrible administration isn’t what we need from the “opposition” party you fucking dunce
What happened to this Republican Party?

Reminder that Javert is the antagonist but he isn't a "bad guy." He is so shaken by his realization that the law and the right thing are sometimes different that he kills himself.

Trump is Thenardier and I would contend that even his supporters would say that.
Trump's inability to understand even in an elementary way the basics of our culture, high or low, is always amazing. Here's a mini-thread of classic moments:

(1) From last night, he couldn't bring himself to say whether he identified with the protagonist or antagonist of Les Misérables.
The inability to grasp the moral meaning of a famously unsubtle work of art—

—and the suggestion that he might identify more with Javert, the inflexible obsessive lawman ultimately unable to live with himself after what he sees—

—make this a perfect Trumpian moment of ignorance and immorality.

We need the Chris Gaines movie.

KOTOR III would be good it sucks they rushed the second one out.
This is a good question: what dormant media project (game/show/movie/etc) would you bring back from the dead if you were obscenely rich just because you could?

Because for me it's Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic III and a bunch of anime series the public has forgotten about.
legitimately I do not understand why more billionaires don't fund media passion projects

if I had eleventy billion dollars I would absolutely be doing shit like "I will give you people a hundred million bucks to give me a world class KOTOR remake" or funding romcoms based off my fav romance novels

Never understood that I might be fortunate to live in Ohio until I listened to @gokp.bsky.social marveling at the magnificent wonder that is *checks notes* a park with a port-a-potty.

NOT a park with a bathroom, which is the arrangement of nearly every park I've been to in Ohio.

Democrat loyalist twitter is very invested in Jake Tapper's book being a nothingburger and saying "what about trump" but, um, my standard is higher than "better than trump?" If the whole thing was always just "but what about trump," then it was never worth voting for.

TIL a recitation of facts is the same as personal hatred
I wrote a piece about Billy Carter being a drunken fuckup relative of a president, but I can't imagine sitting for an interview spitting this kind of personal hatred for the man. Jesus Christ, get some perspective.
Just look how much smoke the utmost elite of the Beltway media apparatus have for Hunter Biden.

This is the absolute upper crust of DC media influencers... Where is the self-righteous indignation for the people who are *actively* stripping this country down and selling it for parts?

It used to be that holding office as a republican required you to be incredibly smart and pretend to be a total cretin, but Noem, Vance, etc. are proving that now you can be authentically stupid and hold incredibly powerful office.

The COVID vaccine is the most important victory of any presidential administration in my lifetime, it belongs to fuck mouth donald trump, and his own supporters fucking hate it. I can't believe this is real life.
40% of Republicans say the COVID-19 vaccine has probably or definitely killed more people than the COVID-19 virus.

In all likelihood, I would take the money to go to court and piss down my leg defending an indefensible, immoral, inhumane position. HOWEVER the money would have to be a lot more than whatever they pay any government lawyer.

"Trump's Constitutional Conscience: How the President's View of Marbury v. Madison Informs His Presidency"

They learned from their forebears in Germany, who were all immediately identified as many as 60 years later by victims who would remember the face to their grave.
All these ICE agents and police officers wearing balaclavas in the US. No law enforcement officers should be allowed to cover their faces unless it is tactically necessary
