A local diner was raided by ICE and 14 people were kidnapped, and most of the locals seem more concerned with where they're going to get their hashbrowns than with anything else. Unfriendly reminder that immigrants, refugees, asylum seekers and migrants don't owe you labor to deserve respect.

"He might be dead" isn't even that wild of a theory. a wild theory would be "what if he had a stroke which fried the parts of his brain that make him a stupid evil piece of shit and now he has to figure out how to navigate his existence with a conscience and the knowledge of everything he's done"

All of Giuliani’s life events that I know about hit like season ending cliffhangers where you’re like ‘How’s he gonna get outta this one?’ People forget that Four Seasons Landscaping debacle was All Him, which is understandable because he also committed actual sexual harassment in a Borat movie.

There is so much machinery running to force us to accept a Trump v. Newsom contest and people will still insist that if that happens it will be a “free and fair” election.

China is going to eclipse the US based off electricity alone. They have a modern grid and have been increasingly electrifying their economy. They have massive surpluses of electricity and a lot based in renewables. The US has an aging grid and is tied to a future of burning fossil fuel for energy.

I'm not asking for the world: I want my sister to raise her kids and work a job she likes; I want my father to be safe if he gets sick; I want to spare my friends the choice between their health and their bills. I want the workers who make this possible to have fair wages and working conditions.

None of these are fate or accidents of history—there are simple, discrete policy solutions to make life better for everyone; they just require a little reprioritization. And that little reprioritization is made into siege warfare

Gavin Newsom is a Republican who ran as a Democrat because Republicans don’t win statewide office in California anymore. He is not “left leaning,” he will not dismantle the authoritarian state, and he is not our savior. Please get that through your head.

They aren’t “stirring up trouble” they are warning you that you will lose again if you run another conservative Democrat like Newsom. You can’t say you weren’t warned, and the next Trump administration is on you if you run him.

Newsom is MAGA, just a Democratic version of it. If you do t believe me, check all the replies defending him and discarding homeless and trans people’s rights.
