I think we should appreciate the wonder of a like. Only one like? That just fine! Someone, one very specific person found your post. They stopped to read it. It is probably just some quick entertainment for them, but it probably came to their attention against the odds. And yet, they saw it! Cool.

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

Every time I hear someone say organic is a scam...has the USDA devalued the label and do some states rip farmers off for certification? Absolutely. But organic farms aren't exposing anyone, let alone children, to literal poison on a regular basis.

Scoot stayed mum while the mayor he supported first fought Prop I to fund affordable housing then budgeted the money on cops once we won it. Connie worked alongside organizers to fund the Housing Stability Fund.
This is rich. Connie Chan says she “built real affordable housing, not the Sacramento version that destroys our neighborhoods.”

She points to new affordable housing on Geary: housing that she didn’t build but that *was* built using “Sacramento version” housing laws & $52M in state funds. 🧵

The thing about that simplistic retort that progressives use against the Right's invocation of biblical scripture to support its policies, - "ironic how the supposedly Christian party despises aid to the poor, celebrates imperialism and disregards the health of the earth" -is that it's 100% spot on.

Minor point but George Washington didn’t even hang the Whiskey Rebellion conspirators after they were sentenced to death for actual treason.
The President’s call for the murder of Americans is simply un-American. When I say there is no place in our country for political violence, I mean it. It doesn’t matter who says it or why. There is no justification. Every American should condemn this in no uncertain terms.

DHS claimed an incident on Oct. 3 showed agents were in danger of being "rammed."

In fact, body cams "suggest[] that the agent drove erratically and brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."

For example, the incident on October 23 where DHS claimed that Bovino was hit in the head with a rock before he deployed tear gas at protestors?

That didn't happen. He fired tear gas and then AFTERWARDS, someone threw a rock. He went back and forth on this under oath, repeatedly changing his story.

Do people not have object permanence anymore? The brownbaiting about a Muslim candidate expressing support for Syed Fahad Hashmi is so bizarre considering that at the time of his trial, virtually every liberal organization agreed he was being wrongly indicted and used as an example by Bush admin.

ECT patients w/ depression often have chronic suicidality. some get treated following an attempt. so to be clear, the alternative to no ECT can sometimes mean death in this high risk pop. and ECT does have time-limited side effects, but it is around as safe as a colonoscopy.
