@davidjroth.bsky.social We're having a great time here at the Overlook Hotel. They're saying it's the best party ever. The bartender is very friendly. Everyone looks happy and normal, you keep hearing it more and more.

WTF? A sick country? No, a complacent one. This country needs a title wave of change. An uprising of people everywhere in this country to fight what’s going wrong.
This article opens with a 3-year-old forced to represent herself in court. We live in a fundamentally sick country.
There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.

I'll say again: we are oddly selective about the government services about which we will say, they operate at a loss.

We say Amtrak and the post office "lose money" but we never say highways, the court system, the Pentagon, etc lose money
The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

This demented son of a bitch is talking about Europe being taken over by somebody and us not lifting a finger to help? That’s stupid son of a bitch needs to be removed from office immediately.
This is insanity, and the Republicans know it. Republicans can and should join Democrats to impeach, convict and remove Trump and his entire administration to save our country and the world from this madman. @ec.europa.eu #Insanity

Trump is a pathetic excuse for a human being and a steaming pile of shit with blonde hair
An entire room full of powerful old white people smiling and laughing as the president dehumanizes black immigrants and the first black president.

Just fucking pathetic.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

Scum.
I had no idea how quickly racism and bigotry could fester from something out of a dark corner to being the cornerstone of the Murdoch media group. We will never be America again until shit like this is gone, root and stem.
And just like that, racism is adopted as the official line of the Rupert Murdoch media group.
Fox News' Will Cain: "I’m sure there are very honorable law-abiding upstanding citizens and contributors from the Somali community here in the United States, BUT..."

He goes on to say "we aren’t going to pretend here that all cultures are of equal value or the same."

It’s the same thing we did when Trump was first in office. Separated families from their children. And this stupid fucking country put him back in charge. America no longer exists. There’s actually nothing to fight for.
Feels like "missing" is inaccurate. This child was kidnapped by the secret police and is now either a political prisoner or a trafficking victim.
A 6-year-old boy is missing after ICE arrested him and his dad in NYC last week and shipped them off to separate facilities. www.thecity.nyc/2025/12/02/i... @thecity.nyc @gwynnefitz.bsky.social

So the "centrists" and corporate media hacks and the establishment Reeks who say I shouldn't respond to MAGA's racism with mockery and belittlement expect us just to sit there and listen to this and take it, yeah?

Imagine if he said this about white people. How would they all respond?

Honestly, no officer should need advice to decide if "kill these guys flailing around in the water" is a legal order
My understanding is that, at the height of the "drone war on terror" that when the military officer thought the legality of a particular strike was legally dubious, they'd have a CIA guy actually "pull the trigger". I wonder if that is happening in our current "War on Fishing Boats"?

I long to hear something like this instead of the cramped hatred spouted by small men.

Trump is a demented Cunt
The Trump “migrant crime” smear tactic comes straight out of the Nazi playbook. Trump has been pushing this narrative since his 5th day in office. In January 2017, he ordered his new administration to publish weekly lists of crimes committed by migrants — which is exactly what the Nazis did to Jews.

If this administration continues to offer those who help us when we are at war helping hand and then the next president throws them back into the mess they came from, I hope nobody else fucking helps this country ever fucking again. Do you want America first? You’re going to get America alone.
“Some will say this means the U.S. should never admit such refugees, but the alternative is abandoning allies who assist Americans in war to the retribution of our enemies. The fate of Afghans, men and women, who worked with the U.S. has often been brutal.”

This administration is addicted to collective punishment.
"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.
