It’s only been ONE DAY and I’m already tired of hearing white people explain why a few hundred armed, trained killers might make the public feel safer.
You know which “public” they’re talking about.
Gonna be a long week.

The courts are powerless to stop the warrantless arrest and disappearance of people in our workplaces, schools, and even courthouses themselves, but are sovereign over your access to healthcare, and the decisions you make about your own body and life. Remember this when they demand your respect.

You’d think when you’re claiming the richest country in the world can’t afford childhood cancer research you might wait a year before throwing yourself a 100 million dollar birthday parade. But carpe diem, suckers.

I’m seeing a lot of posts about how certain immigrants sent to El Salvador are not actually criminals and this is true but I would also like to remind you that people with criminal records shouldn’t be subjected to this, either.

Maybe everyone can see it now, but the world's richest people have tanked it all to restock assets and get liquid after years of illegally playing with funny money. They used "the wokeness" as a cudgel and it worked. The next Disney princess WILL be white, as we all eat beans under the highway.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

The Art of the Deal: threaten annexation of your military allies in direct contravention of the terms of your alliance thus rendering it meaningless… and then demand those same allies spend more money on the alliance.

Only **ten** people? What a terrible decline in journalistic standards we are seeing when someone who is a fine public servant devoted to rooting out fraud can be subjected to calumny like this based on such thin sourcing

The richest man in the world saying he is offering a financial reward for people to vote - not to register, but vote - while also clearly favoring a candidate and working in a very partisan government role seems like something that a functioning democracy would not allow.
The plan to speedrun modernizing the social security database is just the latest instance of a common theme in Musk's campaign: He's SO convinced he's a peerless supergenius that it never occurs to him that if it were this easy to do something, maybe other people would have done it already.

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

Every member of Congress over the age of 60 should pick a young legislator or candidate to mentor and support with the expectation that the mentor leaves office within 5 to 10 years. Stop hoarding power.
