"This is illegal now so I guess we can't do it anymore" is fucked up when "it" is lifesaving medical care.

"The feds are threatening to make us stop but haven't done anything beyond make threats so I guess we can't do it anymore" is just complying in advance, and that's way, WAY worse.

The reason people constantly suggest that Dems "adopt moderate social positions" (which... end up not being "moderate" at all) is because they think that Dems won't lose votes by moving to the right. They are wrong in thinking this.

Pepe Mujica, the anarchist guerilla who became president of Uruguay, has passed on. He leaves behind as good a legacy as it's possible to leave.

So it goes.

José ‘Pepe’ Mujica, former guerrilla and ex-president of Uruguay, dies aged 89
In a final interview, Mujica said: ‘We are too focused on wealth and not on happiness … Before you know it, life has passed you by’

They are deporting brown people and importing white people.

BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts.

Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

Imagine if instead of legacy media doing the standard, "Why are young men being sucked into the Manosphere," they interviewed local tenants + labor unions, mutual aid groups + antifascist gyms - groups addressing material conditions, social alienation + focused on building grassroots power?

OK, this is wild.

In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.

What the HELL?

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything,

Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT.

We’re often targeted for the numbers we post online. No, we can’t explain everything—sorry! But here’s what we can tell you: cell-site simulators are real. These devices mimic legitimate cell towers to intercept communications.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.

Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Now that's a sheer cliff... Holy shit.

Then, they are going to tell you to buy stocks while the prices are low. But, many of the tariff impacted companies will go out of business and there will not be a rebound. The big share holders will bleed it dry.

Don't fall for the Okie doke!

You may be fearing your 401k is no longer enough for you to retire. But with all the cuts to NIH and Medicare you also won't live as long. So the policies are integrated.
