Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.
Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I look at somebody who comes from Somalia...and she comes in and tells us how to run our country. 'The Constitution says this, the Constitution says that.' The whole thing is crazy."

It’s insane to treat the filibuster as the most sacrosanct.
Article 1 power of the purse, oversight, and war? Nah.
Emoluments clauses? Bribery prohibition? Meh.
Criminal law? 14A? Doesn’t count.
But maybe the Senate changes a rule it has multiple times before? Gasp! Not that. Anything but that.

Moms and grandmoms and priest were out there getting shot in the head with tear gas pellets to fight the masked brownshirts and the Dems in the senate just rolled over and got absolutely nothing while they let this corrupt, un-American administration walk over them.
I do think this is a point of radicalization because a lot of angry, angry normal people were ready to dig in and suffer a lot in order to make fascists suffer a little, and their resolution was sold out and made into a mockery

This point absolutely correct and I will add that Mamdani demonstrates that an insurgency, even one with real moral clarity and anger at the status quo, can still be cheerful and inviting.

President of Syria Ahmed al-Sharaa:
Russia has participated,in one way or another,in the war against the people of Syria.So,part of the negotiations that took place with Syria is that those who are wanted should be surrendered to Syria, including Bashar al-Assad. Russians have a different opinion.

They told us to make phone calls, attend meetings with our representatives, and to take to the streets. So we did. Then we went without education, social services and food. We fight Nazis in the street. And we were just starting to learn mutual aid so we could hold out longer. What did they do?

Three questions:
1. Is who politicians follow online newsworthy?
2. Is the vice-president more important than a primary candidate to be junior Senator from Texas?
3. If the answer is yes to the first two, why isn’t Axios doing a fuck ton of stories about who JD Vance is following?

What drives me absolutely insane about this debate is how claims like “there has been a generational stagnation of purchasing power” have taken on the tenor of religious faith among progressives, and seemingly cannot be disproven with any evidence, no matter how overwhelming. It simply isn’t true!

Russian Orthodox Church returning to its traditional role of propping up a morally degenerate tsar.
The Russian Orthodox Church has stated that it is inappropriate for Russians to laugh and enjoy life because for them, sorrow is joy and bliss.
"Our mentality is different; we even look sorrowful..," Pitirim, Bishop Skopinsky, said.
One more justification of war for them.
