Here’s what I think the modern Dem platform should be:
-Prosecute this administration
-Expand and pack SCOTUS
-Outlaw private equity
-Limit corporate consolidation
-Ban fossil fuels
-Ban AI
-Heavily regulate gambling
-Free healthcare/free pre-K thru college education
-Permanent DST
For starters.

I think a lot of what defines the modern era is the death of subculture. Everything is culture. Social media has made niches algorithmically impossible, because popularity in a niche provides escape velocity into the mainstream, and the mainstream is not able to deal with weird shit, by definition.

I mean, I'm getting something like $120 in cash and twenty bucks of Netflix stock from the handful of AOL Time Warner stock I bought back in 2000, so...yay?
I think the Netflix deal is ultimately better for movies and for WB than a Paramount deal (which I 100% believe would end WB) or a Comcast deal (which would take the two best-functioning studios in Hollywood and reduce them to one). I'm open to arguments, but "None of the above" isn't one.

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

Working on a parable called The Emperors of Dunning-Kruger Mountain in which a bunch of people rise to positions of power but don’t know and won’t tell each other that they are all in way over their heads so instead they just invite more people up.

They keep calling them “kinetic strikes” for some reason, as if the particular method of murder remotely matters here.
Maybe it’s just because they’re dumb and they think it sounds cool?

REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?
LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

Finally someone gets the sports-related Pope gifts right!
During his first papal trip abroad, Pope Leo XIV was presented with a baseball bat once owned by legendary White Sox player Nellie Fox.

Or the laws of armed conflict. Or the Geneva conventions. You cannot kill people who have been rendered hors de combat in a military action.
Decent answer, but this is why CNN needs experts on the law of the sea on, instead of the usual political commentators. They could easily explain why this violates maritime rules.

The president is about to start a war for no real reason. All of the things he has blamed on the country he’s targeting — fentanyl distribution, “emptying the asylums” and sending patients to the U.S., alignment with Tren de Aragua— are provably, obviously false.

Hard for me to say how this is different from Fox News's entire business model, except that it's less sophisticated. This is transparently and obviously bad — and Elon should ban these accounts — but the spirit here of trading rage for money is pretty much a lot of right-wing media.
