Oooooh these are lawless times No shit, sherlock
Its 100% symbolic because it will BE VETOED It will not be enacted into law Trump is the president and they will not have the votes to override his veto Like, this is 4th grade civics stuff
No shit, its the view of 4th & flower from the Bonaventure
But Stuart Stevens quoting Jim Hightower is def wild
Ok these are nice symbolic actions, but the bills will all be vetoed
San diego is not a city, it is an overgrown frat house
Yes, unless congress moved those FTEs to a trust fund, in which case they would be paid Similar to USDOT employees who operate during shut downs
Omb will declare all of trumps personal servants and favored depts "essential"
No, the argument here is trump wants them to shut the gov down, so he can de-facto shed unwanted federal programs & staff They would work hand in hand on this The current congress would not act independently
Since OMB can designate some employees "essential" and let them keep working, congress could permanently shut down most of the executive, & OMB could exempt their fave parts and people Congress could then pass occasional supplementals to fund those parts
Jonah goldberg is also far less safe When a group of roided out feds in masks decide another group of roided out feds on masks are criminals, jonah's risk of being caught in the cross fire is greatly increased
Easily their most popular song and a wholesome, positive message for kids of all ages youtu.be/fNv6BrL_FgM?...
Omfg you have completely understood the assignment Well done 👏👏👏👏
People in leadership positions are paid a lot of money bc 1) class privilege, duh 2) we expect them to use that 💲💲 to pay ppl to focus on activities of daily living, esp during emergencies Literally pay someone to pick up your kid, if masked ice klanboys are fed-rioting on your streets
Morally speaking, @radiofreetom.bsky.social ... Ethically speaking... YOU AIN'T SHIT
Your former political party is literally building concentration camps for immigrants And you're out here saying "if only you libs let the 7th worst watergate criminal onto SCOTUS"
Long Beach, Burbank, Bellingham, Portland, Bogotá, Montevideo, Lima Fwiw Oakland almooooost doesn't suck
I understand that brightline kills an insane amount of people in collisions and accidents...I wonder if their O&M cost model is liability inclusive
Honestly surprised the fares aren't higher HSR O&M costs are insane, especially if trains run over 175 mph; (fwiw 230+mph costs are so expensive that nobody operates at those speeds)
Idk, maga wants to watch us have our balls stomped on, because theyre convinced the leopards only eat lib faces But the leopards don't care about politics, they just eat faces
Ahaahahaha this one also deserves to live in a loving polycule
This skeet deserves waaaaaay more love
Wasn't this guy the ceo of the american enterprise institute? Like why would he be arguing for civility & politeness...his side are literally building the camps
Cuomo is saying Mandami was born into privilege? Pot kettle yada yada
Esse tema foi ótimo, aprendi muito! Valeu!!!
My man on bluesky we use alt text
I strongly think the GOP will rally to Trump's side once enough dems are attacking on this There's just zero evidence that the GOP hates child rape as much as it hates "the libs"
The rich always get what they want
Totally The Asta stuff is maybe worse because it's so out of character And it seems like they're not trying to hit a broader note with her, they just don't know what to do with her anymore
What do they think they are doing with Darcy???
I hear you!!!!! The "left" seem so deadset on blaming the dems for everything, like Murc's law on steriods
No, he made direct stimulus payments and child tax credits as well Nobody bothered to remember
idk this was basically Biden's strategy and it was defeated by Netanyahu, expensive eggs, and short memories
Like what if the tiny but powerful minority of hardcore centrists care less about majority opinion than they do maintaining the woodframe around the overton window
Idk but I wonder if @polphilpod.bsky.social 's 4 quadrant analysis of the dems/anti-trump coalition might be illuminating here
🤣🤣
Criminally underrated skeet
Rachel Bade continues to be among the most morally vacuous humans on the planet
Idk this is basicly Brandeis, dating to the 1930s
Haha, ironically I always found madmen a tiny bit overrated, but thought that 1 episode deserved the hype
That's a strong list Where would you rank madmen's "the suitcase?"
I'm suggesting you're a buffoon
Russia has over 300 ICBMs capable of reaching the US? With the capacity to deploy over 1000 warheads?????? Like, this is a silly silly statement
In 2025, youth sports are suburban USA's biggest graft
Which Prem Club do you supprt and why? My team: West Ham United Why: The Cockney Rejects -- I will never forgive them.
I thought the rally in Michigan was particularly impressive
Mango bus crash
This kinda sounds like the relationship between the town council and the Medici in Renaissance Florence Idk know about great government.... but otherwise
It's a really good comparison, because there's such a kirchnerista flavor to these policies Like, what if Cristina K, but with worse makeup and a queens accent?
St. Patrick's day is healing
Thank you for this
Thats great news But I gotta think its gonna take a ton of midas touch type pods doing enormous numbers to counter the existing asymmetry
& then this process forces the "mainstream" media to cover those issues
That's great, but none of those outlets currently have the power to set the narrative, like the RW media ecosystem does Tens & Tens of millions of ppl closely follow RW media on a daily basis GOP spew talking pts -- RW media publicizes them -- 40 or 50 or 60 million go around parroting them
GOP controls the narrative because they have partisan media establishing the narrative Dems have to rely on CNN, Networks, WAPO, and NYT -- who push back GOP has talk radio, FOX, podcasters, OAN, Sinclair, & influencers who basically reproduce their talking pts It is 100% asymmetric
I don't think you understand the us constitution well if you think the dems can begin an impeachment when they don't control the House
Biden was not a good president he was a GREAT president
The handling of the ukraine situation was so masterful that all the critiques of it are incredibly picayune "Ukraine should have gotten weapon system blah blah in march instead of may!!!! " Like c'mon
CHIPS, ARPA, IIJA, IRA Etc etc
Biden curtailed inflation without a recession 99% of economists previously thought this was almost impossible
AOC would not have been running pt. Dems are in the minority -- she would have been the ranking member not the chair
Same here man. Just absolute bullshit.
Hahaha :)
My man, neither are in the top 3 -- 1. DRC, 2. Ghana, 3. Cameroun These numbers are from 2019 fwiw www.globaltrademag.com/tag/plantain....
If you're worried about fascism how on earth could this possibly be a big deal, how could it possibly rise to salience?
Pls explain to me how now is the time to litigate these issues if you believe there is a threat from fascists Pls why is dunking on dems more important than a united front Pls exactly what kinda Ernst Thalman bullshit are you on
Just so I'm clear We're gonna ignore the CHIPS act, The BIL, ARPA, the IRA, THE BIDEN SOFT LANDING, everything else & focus on this cause some professor skeeted about it And that does not sound like fox news talking pts to 'own the libs' at all!!!??!
Yes you're soooo right all the billionaires totally loved Joe Biden thats why they all campaigned for him & KH so hard Like who could ever forget how hard Elon and Bezzos went for Kamala in 2024???
It's weird how the "progressive" critique of dems has been sounding more and more like the gop critique of dems over the last 10-15 years Neither seem to care about policy wins, just about "owning the libs"
Buffy Ann Summers?
It certainly does seem to show that wages rose fastest for the bottom decile between 2020 and 2023
Did you expect that Joe Biden could completely change a 50 year trend in only 4 years?
Idk if you noticed, but Joe Biden was not president in the 1970s In not one single year of the 1970s was Joe Biden the US president In fact, Joe Biden did not become president until 2021
They also love violent aspects of governance Military, police, prisons Somehow this isn't "big government?"

A weird dude with a funny name apparently committed a random crime, and its all everybody on here can talk about But honestly why? Like maybe we should be thinking about more important shit?
Obviously, undocumented folks did not vote for Trump. They cannot vote. Attributing their collective opinions to one quote in one article is a fundamentally UNSERIOUS position. It is the act of an UNSERIOUS PERSON. @jvl.bsky.social if you talk the talk you should walk the walk, my friend
Ok cool. If you don't value helping neighbors, or a pluralist society, those aren't your values As for me, I will stand with my neighbors and loved ones And I won't let exit polls, doomerism, a 1.7% popular vote win, or other bullshit determine how I see the world, or how I walk in it
At the end of the day, we don't know shit Given this we have 2 choices 1. Act according to our values 2. Reveal that those values weren't actually anything we honestly believed in, thru our failure to act in accordance with them
1. Exit polling is a flawed and horrible way to understand the world 2. Even if you must use exit polling, more than 60% of latinos reported voted for harris 3. In this country, we have a secret ballot, no one actually knows who voted for who, all we have is deeply flawed polling
Interesting but little known fact At all vegan restaurants they make you remove all shoes and clothing, to prove its all vegan Its why sooo many diners end up eating butt nekkid The more you know
I think it's best understood as a parody, like the superhero version of naked gun or scary movie

Hell yeah One of West Africa's most underrated foods
Ahahahahha
More perverts pls
Yeah, not exactly mister rule-of-law
Reagan pardoned Mark Felt, of Deepthroat fame ... for ordering illegal COINTELPRO break-ins Can't make that kinda shit up
Like Deepthroat got a pardon For ordering illegal break-ins
Reagan pardoned MarK Felt for the illegal COINTELPRO break ins Which is wildly ironic
Plenty of californians move to okc, they're just not poasters
Man paisa spanish is not clear and 'neutral' unless you're only speaking to the super rich Rolo accents & the accents from santander and boyaca are way more 'neutral' Literally half of south america can pick out a paisa in 20 seconds
Can they? How will that legislation reach the floor for a vote to create that record?
Idk I think you're kinda assuming there is a messenger with the capacity to break through the degraded info environment I am deeply skeptical that anyone could
If I recall correctly, one time was with Brett Baier on Fox news
Harris explicitly did this, fwiw
What party do you think Pol Pot came from?
Like if you're talking about the "left" in 2024, what are you even talking about? Sectarian marxists? Labor folks? Abolitionists? The dsa? What goals, strategies, or tactics do any of those groups have in common? What joint victories have they achieved?
Idk left and right were ways to describe where delegates sat in the french legislature in 1790. Not sure these concepts have much use 130 years later, other than performative self righteousness
