I don’t know whether I should laugh or cry, but this really pisses me off.
1. PMing me is almost certainly a bad idea. 2. I'm here to signal-boost, primarily. 3. If you wanna argue with me, I probably won't, as I have stuff I should be doing, but I'll happily block you, so I don't have to worry about it later, either.

I don’t know whether I should laugh or cry, but this really pisses me off.
The president ordering the murder of 3 more human beings on a boat didn’t even make the list
“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs a lot less to house people.
Who could have imagined that a guy who uses the moniker “Ka$h” would take over the FBI and shut down the bribery investigations of his buddies?
That’s me in the video. And a Fox News host just celebrated me being assaulted by ICE. If ICE will do this to a congressional candidate with a big platform, just imagine what they’re doing to the people they’re kidnapping.
To make sure things proceed as stupidly, but also destructively, as possible.
BREAKING: Gavin Newsom signs legislation to ban face coverings for federal agents.
"This blatant double standard reveals that the GOP’s crackdown on Kirk’s detractors has nothing to do with decorum or respect for the dead, and everything to do with political retribution against their rivals."
Deport this MFer.
What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?
Wow. From an article in The Guardian.
A) yes it is B) By “bad” he means calling out his lies
They put up a bust of Rush Limbaugh in Jeff City and then they had to buy a security camera for it…
Done.
AOC: We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was. A man who believed that the civil rights act that granted black Americans the right to vote was a mistake… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.
Ouch
Joe Manchin loved to pose as a Democrat. He blocked key bills, watered down reforms, and kept the party stuck. Now he’s acting like if Biden had just followed his lead, everything would be fine. Manchin was the roadblock then, and he’s still offering nothing of value on his sad book tour now.
70+ years since McCarthyism and yet... here we are.
Vouchers = “welfare for the wealthy”
Rich people have employees to deal with their children.
If you’re a democratic lawmaker who won’t do the right thing in Congress because of an outside threat, this is going to sound callous but you’re in the wrong job. This kind of stuff is your job. It’s the whole ballgame. “I’m afraid” is not a viable excuse.
“Won’t anyone think of the poor Israelis” wasn’t the take I would have hoped for.
RFK Jr. is objectively pro-disease, pro-illness and pro-child death.
When freedom is under fire you can count on me to ramble and mutter incoherently.
Republicans spent the last 24 hours trying to justify ABC pulling Kimmel based on reasons other than intimidation and threats from the Trump admin, then Trump goes full Col. Jessup & pisses all over the narrative & admits he ordered the Code Red because Kimmel hurt his feelings.
"There is freedom of speech but I cannot guarantee freedom after speech" said by Idi Amin, former Ugandan dictator.
this is the shit i want to see
These people are going to be up against the wall & still they'll be worrying about optics and overreacting.

In this article, you actually spelled it all out so we don't have to be rhetoric majors to understand the dangers. Stories like this could save the country, still. Stories where we have to connect the dots ourselves will not, unfortunately. My .02...from a former professor.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".
I guess years of grinding poverty for most of the country, at least. :-/
Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.
...are they gonna take his word for it? Jesus Christ. I'm skeptical they can enforce this...
BIG: California has passed a new law, AB 144, that formally divorces the state’s vaccine laws from the authority wielded by the federal government, and allows the state to base future immunization guidance on credible, independent medical organizations instead.
While I suspect you're right, being a sociopath, DT would destroy America for a photo op or an extra dollar.
Promises made, promises kept.
I suggest we plan that they will not do it (while pressuring them to, because, you know, def. won't happen if we don't), because the odds are long on these feckless check-collectors doing much of anything.
A story no one is talking about - last week's high school shooting in Denver. 16-year-old white boy radicalized online and promoting white supremacist and anti-Semitic conspiracies, inspired by - and a fan of - terrorists who promoted replacement theory. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
I've read the whole bible & books analyzing it from an academic perspective. Let's start with this. Speaking of the old testament, what did Jesus say? "I bring a new covenant: love thy neighbor as thy self, and love the lord thy god." Full fucking stop. I'm not a god botherer, just read their book.
I think what he's doing here might help over time, tho I think why he's doing it is he wants to be president, and since he enjoyed hanging out with Charlie Kirk, he's never going to be my pres. I'm happy with him as a stick with which to beat 47.
profit.
What we're living through is the result of 100 years of treating conservatism like it was anything better than fascism biding its time.
We have friends everywhere.
Sometimes we have to Find Out.
Are they stupid or do they think we're stupid?
Raskin to Patel: "In a few short months, how did you go from being a crusader for accountability and transparency with the Epstein files to being part of the conspiracy and coverup? The answer is simple. You said it yourself -- because of who is on that list."
To quote Walter from The Big Lebowski, "these fucking fucks."
mass shooting at minneapolis homeless encampment days after a fox news host calls to kill all homeless people
Why would the DOJ scrub the fact that right-wing extremism is the #1 domestic terror threat in America? Why not acknowledge and confront it? Also why haven't they released the Epstein Files? Also why did Ghislaine Maxwell get a sweetheart deal transfer? These problems won't go away.
this doesn't look like a normal distribution
its kind of insane that we’ve been forced to watch rightwingers openly celebrate and taunt everyone over the death of people like trayvon martin for over a decade now and now they’re trying to grandstand over the one time it’s personally affected them and political project
We just want to say thank you to everyone who’s taken action! So far, three doxxing websites and one app have been successfully taken down. Doxxing is illegal in the United States, and so are true threats. Several MAGA-affiliated individuals have already been arrested for making violent threats.
Trump’s so-called Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States.
When you play hand-stacking with your partner and the little (or big) dog, the best part of the 'hands in' game is the reaction from the dog. Woof 🐕 #dog #game #paws
Since I'm of the firm belief that if his lips are moving, he's lying, and could give a shit about anything that doesn't benefit him personally and tangibly, I'm skeptical.
*deep breath* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!
The killing of an Arizona evangelical by a Utah Mormon means it's time to crack down on the New York Jews who control our media. by J.D. Vance
The GOP is the most shameful, hypocritical movement in world politics.
Things have gotten out of hand and it’s now going both ways. People are being doxxed and fired from their jobs, and in response, some are retaliating by taking screenshots of those who doxxed them to return the favor.
An economy only based on the spending of the wealthy is a tiny economy which will support far fewer oligarchs than we see now.
Fun fact: Nancy Mace is trying to censure me over comments I never said. Her res does not contain a single quote from me because she couldn’t find any. Unlike her, I have routinely condemned political violence, no matter the political ideology.
Why is the right so angry? They control the entire government and they’re still miserable f*cks. Joy Reid nailed it.
Hiding the truth.
New in PN: There are no MAGA heroes "One of the reasons so much praise is being lavished on Kirk is that Republicans don’t really have anyone else to admire. In the Trump era, there are no heroes. They cannot exist within the modern GOP."
Join me in condemning this kind of statement and this kind of hate.
If this became a weekly series, it would run longer than The Simpsons.
Obviously. This was the plan. If they hadn't gotten a trigger, they would have tried making one up. Lucky for them, "Charlie" gave them the excuse they needed.
The rapid movement to use the Kirk shooting to bring more division to America & attack groups feels far to well planned & coordinated. Almost as if this planning has been going on for a long time. Not saying the shooting was planned, but I am saying that they were waiting for a moment like this.
From @nbcnews.com and @msnbc.com
The censorship will continue until free speech improves
Feel free to criticize @realDonaldTrump .. He just love the attention.
I asked a Meta whistleblower if the company stopped child safety research, restricted data, altered results, and even deleted evidence of harm to kids. The answer each time was the same: Yes. That says it all.
Question: How long are Dems going to allow the MSM to claim that Kirk was killed by a leftist without an organized consistent response the Robinson was an nihilistic alt-RIGHT meme lord who follows Nick Fuentes?
Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.
Today is the day of the special election to fill the seat of former MN State Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot by a right-wing extremist.
So much of the crisis is the fact that liberals are unwilling to describe what's happening, because they're scared to say that their opponents are lying, are operating in bad faith, want evil or harmful policy, and don't share our basic goals about what society should look like
donald trump and the white nationalists that run his government want you to think that slavery was just fine www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...
Accuse the other guy of what you are guilty of.
He’s no Chief Justice. Impeach and remove from office forthwith!
We all learned this week that MAGA idolize a man who thought Black Americans were better off during segregation and slavery. This is their hero and the man they have elevated as a saint. That's Charlie Kirk and the MAGA movement. Hoods off.
I know these are rhetorical Qs, and they're good ones. I keep wanting to reply w/ stuff like "have you ever met a church person, worked with them, worked for them, tried to compromise with them, heard what they say behind closed doors?" ...because violence, repression, thoughtcrime: that's them.
gotta be ready to GO LIKE HELL
