Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

As an historian, I think it's bad when "blood libel" goes from denoting a very specific part of anti-Jewish history rooted in particular forms of medieval Christian anti-Judaism, to just meaning any criticism of Israel. A whole generation won't understand just how bad the actual blood libel was!

NATO Ambassador Matthew Whitaker on Ukraine's territorial concessions: "No big chunks or sections are going to be just given that haven't been fought for or earned on the battlefield."

Just spitballing here, but cryptobros throwing sex toys at WNBA players on the court and other cryptobros and male sports commentators calling it funny and telling the women and their coaches to 'lighten up' both explains the 'male loneliness epidemic' and why I don't care about it.

Republicans complain about Texas Democrats “fleeing”—yet just days ago, they themselves fled D.C. to avoid voting on the Epstein files.
Why? To protect a convicted felon sitting in the Oval Office.
One side dodges accountability.

Donald Trump’s most consequential legacy is his war on the truth.
From jobs reports to the news to election outcomes, he has poisoned the minds of millions of Americans. And it’s only getting worse.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

JD Vance bragging about a Republican congressperson deciding to vote to take away people’s healthcare and food support in a fit of pique because they’re upset by Hakeem Jeffries speaking as he has the right to do, really sums up what you need to know about the Republican Party.

Rep. Andy Ogles -- who apparently lied about his undergrad major, his fake graduate degrees, his past careers variously as an economist, a cop, and an expert in international sex crimes and so much more -- says that if another politician "fudged" about his own past then he should be deported.
Ogles on Trump's big bill: "Now, ICE is gonna have the personnel and resources to come into cities like Nashville and New York and quite frankly deport people ... if Zohran fudged on his immigration forms, we may very well be deporting him. Time will tell."

After someone shot law makers impersonating a cop, every "federal agent" should be "alleged" until proven otherwise
As long as they’re hiding their faces, badges and names we should stop calling them “federal agents.”
Call them masked goons or unidentified thugs or whatever, unless and until they provide proper ID.
