Once upon a time, the richest Americans worried that if conditions got bad enough all the poors might just rise up against them, and so they avoided getting *too* obvious with their exploitation.

Today's crop just brags about it.

Lord give us the Democrats that Republicans warn us about.
Thune: "If the Democrats had won the majority, they probably would've tried to nuke the filibuster. And then you'd have four new senators from Puerto Rico and DC, you'd have a packed Supreme Court, you'd have abortion on demand ... "

Now that Kirk's killer seems to be caught, maybe the news could spare a moment's attention for the right wing, from the commentariat up to the GOP and president, whose immediate reaction was not mourning, but to seize the opportunity to try to incite violence against groups they hate

Over 300 MILLION American citizen's files stolen by DOGE.

Why can't 1 person with access steal the EPSTEIN Files?

Think about the implications of a country who could learn that gun violence is the leading cause death of their own children and then make no changes whatsoever.

The GOP is the party of pedophiles and this needs to be hammered relentlessly by every single Dem. These people are sick fucks who think they won’t face consequences.

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office.

I'm having a rough go of it lately, and have been thinking: everyone is going through something, and you have no idea what it is, or how it's affecting them.

Quote post this is if you're going through something, and maybe we'll all realize that we aren't as alone as we feel right now.

In 1971, corporate attorney Lewis Powell drafted a memo urging Big Business to mobilize for political combat against consumer, labor, and environmental groups.

That roadmap kicked off the corporate takeover of modern American politics. Watch. https://youtu.be/bbbgfnpJN9w?feature=shared

The worse things get, the more books, comics and (as a result) shelves I want to buy.

Amazon is generally my last resort for books due to constant damage, but I have noticed recently that they are starting to add more packing material (paper). Ive been on a noticeable “no damage” streak as a result.

Trump has no idea who stopped supplies to Ukraine... meanwhile in the past month he's redecorated the cabinet room, picked out where to put in a new flag pole, and is designing a new area for the rose garden to throw parties.

Who's president while he's playing first lady?

Some people think this is an exaggeration but I will say that if I were HHS Secretary and my goal were to kill as many children as possible, it would be difficult to distinguish the actions I would take from those that Kennedy has taken.
