Then they came for me, and again I did not fight because it seemed dangerous.

And as you're watching that video, note that Trump said "it is hard to believe he is alive" in reference to the shooter, after the driver, in his words, "violently, willfully and viciously ran over the ICE officer".

Lies.

Reopen the existing pedestrian tunnel under Aurora at 79th St so kids can safely cross to get to Daniel Bagley elementary!

So glad the founders identified all the available ideas and split them up so evenly.

"Starbucks has racked up more federal labor law violations than any other corporation IN U.S. HISTORY!"

Put it on a sticker, add a QR code that leads to a source. Stick it to the door of every Starbucks.

What happens if someone disobeys an order on the grounds they believed it was illegal, and then it turns out after litigation that it was legal?

Wilson would need 54.8% of the remaining vote to come out on top.

Grand Moff Tarkin got a lot of great experience commanding the Death Star.

Nothing so exciting. It's just a reflection of population density.

But they're related though, right? the longer you think about trying to connect the dots and justify centrism, the more incoherent that justification becomes.

This is the logic black hole at the center of centrism.

The most aggressively proactive thing the Democrats have done as our government turns to fascism turned out to be 100% correct.

It's a legitimized mispronunciation of the word 'dug', as in the past tense of 'dig' which reflects a reality all dogs are immersed in, all proudly believing they have just successfully dug. Its a polite way for dogs to greet each other, (e.g. "Hello, dug!") and so became associated with the species

BRUCE: "If there is a policy in that regard you would hear it from me."

10 seconds later

BRUCE: "If there is a policy regarding the status in any region of the world ... I would wait to hear it from Sec Rubio or President Trump."

Watched the whole thing and I think the most disturbing and remarkable moment was when the fascist dismissed concerns about oppression because he believed he would be part of the in-group.

Of course the right will widely condemn that perspective... Any minute now....

Give them a chance! In just a day or so, once the messaging poll data comes back, we'll hear from @schumer.senate.gov how much of a distraction this is from kitchen table issues!

Why plant a tree that would take years to be big enough for anyone to enjoy when we could do nothing, change nothing and address no problems right now?

Obviously it's because MAGA destroyed wokeism.

Obviously would-be murders are afraid of the big bad president.

What does it mean for a state to be a plaintiff? Did the state AG act? The governor? Both? Someone else?

What is supposed to be the backstop preventing politicians from manipulating large groups of ignorant voters?
