Happy Labor Day to all the little old ladies in Flawriduh
Holy fuck! 🫡🫡🫡🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The bank app is telling me to "tap & pay like a boss😏" and "rally my crew". I am 37 years old and you are the bank. Don't talk to me this way.
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
The Trump Administration tried to deport hundreds of childen to Guatemala in the middle of the night. This is pure evil.
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?
Instagram influencer Adventorin goes viral after demonstrating how simple it is to climb over the U.S. Border Wall.
Cos people can't deal with this?
Kinda looks like the Distiller Coral Fang censored cover right

Yes. Vinyl cargo pants (and shirt presumably depending on gender)
Yeah, nice and cool, but they also should be fucking mortified and ashamed about what they are being forced to do. It's not Halloween in D.C. for national guard costumes. The handshake should come with an apology for what they're going through as well.
Please. I'm begging you to stop. "New England"/"hazy" IPA style broke everybody's goddamn brains. THIS IS JUST AN EAST COAST IPA
Doesn't even have to be "smart". Just the conventional wisdom/status quo. Witness the mountain of deranged lies the right has made ubiquitous ("crime is up, immigrants take welfare, low taxes boost the economy, political opponents are socialists, you definitely know what socialism is & it's bad...")
Here's the crazy thing: there is ACTUALLY a malicious plan by the Heritage Foundation and their friends to destroy America. We are ACTUALLY teetering on the precipice of collapse The dangers that Repubican pundits lied about for years are true right now
Patriot. 🫡🇺🇸🗽
Not only do they demand the subsidy for their backwards failed economies, they insist on making their benefactors suffer cruelly. How much longer must we be kicked until we shall all be Wide Awakes.
Because rural red counties are “failed states” with no tax base. Without federal and state funding they’d have no infrastructure at all. We’ve got rural counties that have a dozen sheriff cars (through state and federal grants) but can only afford to hire two or three deputies.
the demand is always expressed in terms of blue state governments step in and keep rural hospitals open. but why can't red rural county governments step in and keep rural hospitals open?
ur in dangar gurl
Maybe they can be servers at Mar A Lago too huh?

This is how small feels. From a child’s height, cars aren’t machines, they’re monsters.
Sorry to inform everyone he's not dead, he's just never had a soul.
Liberals: “We could try to DO some things to reduce gun violence; ‘thoughts and prayers’ isn’t enough.” Republicans: “Outrage! Disgrace! They’re attacking prayer.” There’s no need to be polite or defensive in response to this. Invoking faith as an excuse to shun responsibility deserves no respect.
The mf better NOT be dead, before he's behind bars.

Yes! I agree, rifles and long arms are scary, as they are used in mass shootings at (suburban, white) school, churches, etc But iiuc handguns are a much larger, although less sensational, crime/violence issue. Urban kids have to deal with the threat of handguns everywhere.
And even self defense needs to be much more narrowed. It should be the responsibility of both parties to deescalate. Not het a free self-defense exception for every perceived threat.
I'm skeptical in depth technical knowledge is required. People perhaps correctly lawyer that "assault" is a vague non-technical description. But deaths went down when the assault ban was in place. Go argue in court about textbook definitions while lives are being saved.
If only there were an institution established to defend the rule of law
My favorite evergreen Molly Ivins quote: "I prefer someone who burns the flag and then wraps themselves up in the Constitution over someone who burns the Constitution and then wraps themselves up in the flag."
So not only do churches NOT have to pay taxes, they're going to get YOUR tax dollars to boot. This seems like oh, I don't know, government establishing a religion in violation of the First Amendment?
Eventually the tree needs watering.
"It's thankless. People live their entire lives building something they may never see succeed. And you do it anyway." A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit. And we've been thanklessly living in that hard earned shade for decades.
Hello, everyone. Today, thanks to @sbg1.bsky.social and @newyorker.com, I learned a new word. The word is: "butt-snorkeler."

When Donald Trump drags me and my family into the gas chamber, at least I’ll be able to say that I was always non-partisan and gave him the benefit of the doubt.
Wow, amazing findings It is acceptable to cut off contact? Frogs: 40% Scorpions: 11%
lmfao wait so the absolute minimum for a package coming to the US is $80? Any package? so you order some $5 tchotchke and you gotta pay $80? hahahahahaaaaaaaahahahaaaaaahahahahaaa

This is kidnapping. Outright criminal kidnapping. www.latimes.com/california/s...
It’s human trafficking.
Tulsi Gabbard released the names of CIA OPERATIVES! “It could potentially put CIA cover procedures at risk. It could put relations with foreign governments at risk.” The Predator in Chief picks all the best people...right? Not! www.thedailybeast.com/intelligence...
ah yes, vital that we have housing for cars and not people
Newsom should create the CCDCP - California Centers for Disease Control and Prevention... and hire every single one of them.
He also said, “I can do anything I want, I’m the president of the United States.” The man wants to be king, but we became our own country to never again be ruled by one.
“You hate rural people without knowing them.” Oh, no. I know them very well.
Here he goes.
BREAKING: Big moment as CDC staff stage a mass walkout. They have lined the street outside its HQ to greet and salute the four top officials who have resigned in protest at RFK Jr’s attack on the agency’s science base. (🎥 AP)
Seems like the kind of thing federal agents could handle if they weren’t busy tracking down America’s most wanted DoorDash delivery drivers in DC.
"Donald Trump is not governing—he is waging war on the American government itself...This is all the same project: attacking the government and re-engineering it to serve as a weapon against the American people." www.thebulwark.com/p/the-cdc-th...
It shouldn't be up to American children to save each other from getting shot. It's the job of American adults to stop shootings from happening in the first place. Ban assault weapons again now.
"A three-and-a-quarter-hour televised cabinet Politburo meeting, in which the highest-ranking government officials of the world’s oldest and once greatest democracy abased themselves ridiculously before their presidential idol."
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.

If the Democratic Party intends to win this fight, it must stop functioning solely as a party & instead step into its moment in history: to lead a pro-democracy movement capable of confronting this authoritarian threat. https://www.lincolnsquare.media/p/stand-up-america-the-time-for-a-pro?r=2lckc
i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
When a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future
If Obama or Biden had said this, it would be rightfully understood as them arrogating dictatorial authority to themselves, it would be the only thing anyone in the media or opposition would talk about for a year, and it would probably end their presidency. For Trump, it’s literally just Tuesday.
It’s completely uncabined narcissism. Trump has spent his entire life indulging in extraordinary narcissistic fantasies about himself, but now the entire elite of the United States has convinced itself that it’s savvy to indulge those fantasies, so they metastasize into utter megalomania.
The main thing you need to know about conservatives is that they are literally sociopaths. They think being sociopaths makes them morally superior to others. They view the good samaritan as evil, not weak.
Also they cannot read a scientific graphic to save their lives. Famously the data in this graphic is *cumulative/inclusive*
The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good
Trump and his MAGA movement have mastered the art of projection, accusing the left of doing what they themselves have done. But now, Trump has taken that to a new level, becoming the manifestation of an oppressive state that the right has always warned against. So why aren't more sounding the alarm?
For all the dog lovers. This is a classic. Worth seeing again.
(Hakeem Jeffries addresses camera) "President Trump ..." (makes right hand gesture) "... thinks that he is a king ..." (makes left hand gesture) "... but the American people ..." (right hand is cuffed) "... know that he ..." (left hand cuffed) "... does not have ..." (thrown into ICE van)
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.
I mean Trump is literally trying to destroy the American free-market economy, the most successful economy in human history, because he wants to shake down our trading partners, he wants all corporations to pay him a personal cut, and he wants to directly control the money supply
You are living through the unthinkable: the president of the United States using the military to seize domestic power. The greatest crisis of executive power in American history, at the hands of the worst, most corrupt, and most unfit president in American history.
A lot of MAGA seems to be motivated by anger that your kids can move away from you.
Leftist: Yes, Trump’s kind of a fascist. Now let me get back to my obsession, re-litigating fights with Democratic centrists from a decade or two ago. Centrist: Yes, there are signs of fascism. Now let me get back to complaining a lefty used some woke terms a few years ago. American democracy: 🤯🤯🤯
What's actually gonna happen is they're gonna have to spend months gutting it to remove the listening devices and fixing other security breaches and the New York Times will run an A1 feature on how much "taxpayer money" the Dem president is spending on it like it's a huge scandal
REPORTER: It requires an act of Congress to rename the Defense Department TRUMP: We’re just gonna do it. I’m sure Congress will go along if we need that
Glad that mainstream news is starting to be a little more aggressive about connecting the dots and recognizing white supremacy in this administration. But phrases like "right-wing activists" still hide the ball. This is a story about the White House welcoming open Nazis and antisemites. Say that.
A pardon. @wutangforchildren.bsky.social
Trump: "A lot of people are saying maybe we'd like a dictator."
