Seriously fucking stupid that every day someone in the opposition party doesn’t go out and say:

“This entire shitshow is pure conservatism. You like?”

I think Hakeem Jeffries has reached the IDGAF phase of his political career. Zohran spoke too soon.

A judge decided that RealPage doesn’t have to pay back a cent of the $4 billion it stole from tenants. Timid attorneys and timid judges seem determined “to let big corporations run over anything in their path.” From @ddayen.bsky.social: trib.al/PlJbQZ9

A settlement with algorithmic collusion facilitator RealPage allows it to keep allegedly ill-gotten profits and continue innovating to raise rents.

Just a quick reminder that this doesn’t have to be “decades worth of damage” being done if there’s the political will to get people in who don’t fuck around for decades pretending they can’t fix shit.

Posting of sour grapes re: Mamdani dog walking Trump, by someone who needs to wake the fuck up.

Ngl if Mamdani actually convinced this guy to cut funding to Israel, those poll numbers may very well go up a bit.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

It's a mistake to treat Trump's behavior today as "insanity" or "insane." That implies he needs clinical care. Rather, treat him as a calculating fascist who intends to use military force to install a dictatorship. Then react accordingly.

We’re hearing helicopters and word is spreading of massive ICE raids tomorrow and Friday particularly in Gwinnett. These excessive raids put all of us in danger. Spread the word, look out for each other, and remember your rights.
White text on red background reads: You Have Constitutional Rights DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR if an immigration agent is knocking. If you are inside of your house, show the card through the window or slide it under the door. DO NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS from an immigration agent if they try to talk to you. You have the right to remain silent. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING without first speaking to a lawyer. You have the right to speak with a lawyer. If you are outside of your house, SHOW THIS CARD TO THE AGENT. Ask the agent if you are free to leave and if they say you can, leave calmly. White text on red background reads You Have Constitutional Rights I do not wish to speak with you, answer your questions, or sign or hand you any documents based on my 5th Amendment rights under the United States Constitution. I do not give you permission to enter my home based on my 4th Amendment rights under the United States Constitution unless you have a warrant to enter, signed by a judge or magistrate with my name on it that you slide under the door. I do not give you permission to search any of my belongings based on my 4th Amendment rights. I choose to exercise my constitutional rights. White text on red background reads: Usted tiene derechos constitucionales: NO ABRA LA PUERTA si un agente de inmigración está tocando la puerta. NO CONTESTE NINGUNA PREGUNTA de un agente de inmigración si el trata de hablar con usted. Usted tiene el derecho de mantenerse callado. NO FIRME NADA sin antes hablar con un abogado. Usted tiene el derecho de hablar con un abogado. Si usted está afuera de su casa, pregunte al agente si es libre para irse y si dice que sí, váyase con tranquilidad. ENTREGUE LA TARJETA EN INGLÉS AL AGENTE. Si usted está dentro de su casa, muestre la tarjeta por la ventana o pásela debajo de la puerta. Usted tiene derechos constitucionales: No deseo hablar con usted, responder a sus preguntas ni firmar o entregarle ningún documento, basándome en mis derechos de la Quinta Enmienda de la Constitución de los Estados Unidos. No le doy permiso para entrar a mi hogar, basándome en mis derechos de la Cuarta Enmienda de la Constitución de los Estados Unidos, a menos que tenga una orden de registro firmada por un juez o magistrado con mi nombre, que deslice por debajo de la puerta. No le doy permiso para registrar ninguna de mis pertenencias, basándome en mis derechos de la Cuarta Enmienda. Elijo ejercer mis derechos constitucionales.

I think the “the police will protect me” paradigm is shifting for liberals:
More liberals, people of color and LGBTQ Americans say they're buying guns out of fear
The image of gun ownership in America has been white, rural and Republican, but that's been changing as more liberals and minorities have been buying guns, especially after the 2024 election.

Puzzling that the centrist pundits who are arguing for a "big tent" Democratic Party are the same people who spend all their time on social media attacking the left. The Venn diagram of these two groups is practically a circle.
Meanwhile, if you take Dems and subtract the left, you get 2000 and 2024

Holy shit the rants Hasan goes on in his streams are now making it into Variety (no lies detected btw)
Variety @Variety · 1h Hasan Piker calls Gal Gadot “a dogsh*t actress” and quips: “She has no business [being at the Oscars] for the crime of what she has done to not only the DC franchise, but really any movie she’s been a part of.” “All jokes aside,” he continued, “Gal Gadot serves an important role in normalizing Israel as not a fascist ethno-state, but instead a place where a lot of beautiful women come from. And those beautiful women happen to serve in the IDF, because there’s also this weird sexualization of the forces as well that takes place, and it plays another role in normalizing Israel and its activities and actions, and whitewashing it.”
