i actually think there is a wide open lane in american politics right now for “get the US out of israel.” the challenge is having the steel to weather the inevitable attacks from the right. but “israel has forfeited american aid because of its behavior” plays.

hes definitely incapacitated
Really taken with the idea of someone at an Oasis show, sometime on this tour, learning that Donald Trump has died by having Noel announce the news and then being like "right, then, this one's called 'Some Might Say.'"
Lol of course you're an oped writer. Only an oped writer would be dumb enough to think this
what if he just says the Shahada and refuses to elaborate
First action as president: History is coming back to the History Channel!!!!
I love that the Stats Guy thought "I've solved gambling now" instead of learning the correct thing from stats which is that gambling is rigged against you on purpose.
I love the idea that things that appeal to Nate Silver have broad appeal
Guys Who Lose at Gambling also famously poll high with voters
The average American voter LOVES guys that look like this and constantly lectures them about statistics
Many liberals don't actually hate right wing policies. They hate how rude and uncouth the right is. They think it's quite unseemly to take pleasure in hurting others. But they don't think it's wrong to hurt other people.
Hey @joshtpm.bsky.social just checking if you still think people calling this a genocide are "morons"?
Let’s help them get through go this
It’s not a good situation right now and they’re asking for our help
School closures inconvenience me (40yr old main character of the universe that now has to deal with the kids I hate), dead people in a freezer truck so not
Ah yes. We call that the Classic Coward
Every conservative principle that could have merit is already represented in the mainstream Democratic Party, not to mention fully abandoned by conservatives themselves. What's left? Bigotry, sadism, tantrums over corporate logos. This is what you're trying to find common ground with
One reason for Democrats to ditch their reflex to say "You have a point" to the other side is the right wing hasn't had a good point about anything in most of our lifetimes
If you create or enjoy AI images of Gavin Newsom defeating Trump then you are lower than a worm. You are legally a type of commodity biomass. You are fit only to be used for medical experiments
You actually can feed an image into a computer to manipulate it to make certain parts of the image more visible at the expense of other parts of the image. It's actually really easy to do and people have been doing it with satellite imagery since the 80s.
This ‘blue states closed schools too long’ narrative is becoming increasingly entrenched in the Polite Center but it’s arguable at best. Republican states had far more deaths during COVID and their students have roughly comparable learning loss.
"what if we roll over and show our soft little bellies and beg to keep the government that we keep saying is super dangerous open? Would the voters like that????"
I finished reading a small history for the trials of the soviets after 1905 and something that gets drilled into you in how the Bolsheviks (and their Menshevik, SR allies) understood the power and importance of delegitimizing every single facet of the tsarist government. It creates *future* power
I mean yeah but in this case we're not really worried about the text on the hat. It's pretty clear that they've run a smoothing algorithm and a brightening filter both of which would struggle with the hat since it's the least smooth and brightest part of the image.
dawg what are we doing here
I remember when quite a lot of people, including some who are mutuals me, insisted that this would never become the consensus.
This morning (9/1) at 8 AM feds pulled over a couple at 18th & Park NW. They smashed the window, dragged the husband out & arrested him. When a community member stopped to record they were grabbed & threatened w/ pepper spray by this piece of shit. @mayorbowser.bsky.social do you welcome this too?
Nah sir Keir is very good at wielding power. It's just that he only ever wields it to help the right wing

WORKING CLASS UNITE!
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. filling an IV bag from a murky puddle near Trump National's sixth tee. "The president needs parameciums," he tells the assembled media. "It's the only treatment proven to work in real testing." His golf cart is piled high with dozens of dead birds.
"The Darksign brands the Undead. And in this land, the Undead are corralled and led to the north, where they are locked away, to await the end of the world...this is your fate"
Oh my god it got worse

“We regret to inform you—Castellanos with a long drive, deep center field—Donald John Trump has passed away. 45th and 47th president of the United States. Home run for Castellanos, Phillies are up 4 to 3.” “It’s weird, though, right Tom?” “Sure is.”
He is on his way to try and wake up his friend Jeffrey

This isn’t the first time we’ve had to discuss your behavior, Mr. Bond
Don’t talk to me until I’ve had my Tactisquatch

Gee it sure sounds like you're proposing a half measure here
I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is - adding backdoors into encryption on OS level - "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY - let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals it needs to be stopped, post haste
interesting that Nazis were marching in Melbourne and the police chose to pepper spray a group of antifa, I'm sure there are no bigger conclusions to be drawn from any of this
Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first? (Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here)
I interviewed Flint Taylor, Fred Hampton's & the Chicago Black Panther Party's, lawyer who helped uncover the CPD/FBI's role in his execution and the execution of other members. We discussed historical & present day policing issues in this piece: truthout.org/articles/50-...
"Anybody who tells you that people aren't starving in Gaza is lying to you." -Sen. Van Hollen. Proud of my senator for stepping up and saying that. It needs to be said. Its not a mistake, its a lie.
Highly recommended to click through this thread
The video of German police punching an Irish woman in the face in broad daylight is fucking emotive to put it mildly. I actually think Merz should personally apologise.
Berlin, Germany - broken arm, broken nose, broken State.
Thank you for your focus on this. It's important that everyone knows the truth about what's happening
Netanyahu is restricting aid trucks into Gaza—the best way to get food to starving people there—so Jordan is delivering some with air drops. The Jordanians said @merkley.senate.gov & I could join one of those flights to see the devastation, but Israel denied authorization for our scheduled flight.
A Senator of the United States of America says that he was refused the ability to see Gaza for himself as part of a Jordanian aerial mission over the occupied territory.
One last explanation is the DNC just funds low quality content. The Chorus influencers tried to make “Jill Stein” a trending topic on social media after the new Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case. Like in basic quality terms this is hella dumb
Read the article.
I've been loving this because it's the perfect lib scandal, totally avoidable and totally caused by Dem refusal to do any introspection after 2024. And it's doubly funny bc none of these creators can effectively counter it bc they lack actual audiences like Hasan or even the majority report
Lol she's threatening to sue people
THREAD 🧵 Rep. Adam Smith, Democrat Ranking Member of House Armed Services Committee, tells PSA today that he: -Would have voted for latest Sanders resos to block weapons to Israel -Doesn't support recognition of Palestinian statehood, claims he supports "autonomy". -Refuses to disavow AIPAC.
They need help moving their family out of harm’s way. It seems super stressful and it’s no way for a family to have to survive.
Yeah he's said things but he still allowed the national guard to be activated. He still allowed them to run wild in la.
Oh I feel that hard. I actually got a whole new burner that lives outside so I could use my wok without covering my kitchen in oil splatter
Gimmie dat
Please define "actively fighting"
4500 troops is barely enough to hold a landing area. Not surprised that Donnie is trying to do this in the dumbest way possible
You've got to worry a bit about an oil fire if you want to cook eggs on carbon steel it's an adventure!!! 😂
They've been attempting to capture iof soldiers for the past month. They're so focused on it that I have seen the first suicide missions of the war from Hamas and PIJ. Not surprised they finally achieved it

France is considering opening an embassy to Palestine in occupied Ramallah and having a Palestinian embassy to France opened in Paris, according to Macron's advisor Ofer Bronstein.
🎶It's been a long day without you, my friend And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
A lot of you have questions about the dark money I received to downplay a genocide to my audience for the democrat party. If you could just hop on over to this nazi site, you'll see I explained everything.
He's wandering dc trying to find Stan chera. Donnie needs to tell him about his favorite cat from Cats.
Best bond no debate
Oh, sorry he’s just making the homeless move by having the police throw their shit away and he’s only against trans people under 25, that’s on me.
Hope It happens this weekend. It would be lots of fun!!!
Newsom is proof that if Trump was more clean cut and well spoken liberals wouldn’t have a problem with Trump
Agents snatched this person out of his Uber ride this morning in Mount Pleasant, Washington DC. Per source, officers followed his Uber for a few minutes, and then swarmed the vehicle and dragged him out.
