"A Justice Department spokesperson told ABC News, "The DOJ is actively evaluating options to prevent the pattern of violence we have seen from individuals with specific mental health challenges and substance abuse disorders." Oh really?
Still enraged by that Riley Gaines story, one in a line of in-soft-focus features of people who see harming others as a lucrative career. In the journalism world I stepped into 42 years ago, this would have been the headline and lede, not the 47th paragraph. The. 47th. Paragraph. I counted. 1/x
COMMENTARY: If this was happening in another nation, we'd call it by name. It's authoritarianism.
THIS!! If any of these governors had the spine they try to make others believe they have they'd do exactly that. They'd also instruct local & state police to protect people, by force if necessary, from unknown masked kidnappers making "arrests" without warrants.
Pritzker should call up the Illinois National Guard to protect Illinois residents from invading troops.
Don't forget about airlines. They've lobbied heavily against high-speed passenger trains for decades.
That doesn't even make sense but I'm not going to argue with you about it. Do you know what Gavin Newsom WON'T do? He won't erase us the way Trump has. He won't round us up the way Trump WILL. We've seen all this before 85yrs ago, we know where it leads. Is that what you want?
Oh Jesus Christ, then who Erin, WHO? Enough with the damn histrionics please. Did you consider that he's being strategic with his language? Especially in light of the role trans issues played in the DNC loss last November? If it's between Newsom & more fascists in 29 are you REALLY gonna abstain?
That kind of attitude is exactly what got us this second Trump administration and our nation's headlong, accelerating slide into 21st century fascism. Is that really the side of history you want to be on? I understand the anger, but the histrionics helps no one.
So what's the alternative? What's the plan for securing our own political power & security?
That's okay, I doubt the DNC (or any other political party except MAGA) will be around much longer.
You're gotdamned right it was!
😂😂 Thx, I needed a good chuckle today
And what exactly makes you believe you're entitled to all of that?
LOL, and now you're putting words in my mouth to accuse ME of that which YOU are guilty. And you have the goddamned temerity to accuse progressives of being like that NDASP? Get screwed bitch. No one is buying the Eternal Victim mentality of the state of Israel anymore.
LOL, you're absolutely NOT winning this argument, especially not with obvious BS like that. Every time you're countered you just move the goalposts. And no MFer, she CAN'T. The cops might come, but only to make sure the RIGHTFUL OWNER of the property doesn't get in the way the zionists stealing it.
Do you mean a Venn Diagram?
And these same people absolutely lost their damn minds every time Obama did an EO, saying he was "ruling by executive fiat." Then again, they lost their minds when the rest of us had the gall, the absolute temerity, to elect a black man as POTUS. IMO that led directly to them choosing Felon47.
Eliminating just him isn't gonna do the trick, unfortunately.
If I "kicked out" you mean got their butts kicked & fled when they tried to have the revolt they expected Yeshua bar Yosef to lead then sure. Sorry babe but objective history doesn't agree with your assertion. What is it with you apologists, always making excuses for Israel's atrocities?
Easy.....hey, unless you're an American...
Last I checked, the vast majority of Judeans left their homeland behind in the diaspora. They abandoned it, so you're in no position to whine about what was GIVEN to them (to get them out of Europe). You act as if they were ENTITLED to more.
I hope that as soon as he started to open his worthless Felon47-fellating mouth she stopped him, saying something like "No no, don't bother answering. It was rhetorical & everyone knows you'd just try to BS your way around breaking the oath you took to support & defend the Constitution, NOT Felon47"
Umm, the fact that much of the world isn't falling for that old dog-whistle bs anymore, for one. A) Israel wouldn't BE a country if not for the UK. B) Israel has conducted a terror campaign for 80 years against Muslims. C) Criticism of Israeli government DOES NOT EQUATE to anti-Semitism.
Germany to stop arms exports to Israel that could be used in Gaza after takeover plan approved
ICE has been stalking his home for weeks after he evaded their kidnapping attempt based on a years-old dismissed charge for something his neighbor actually did. ICE knows this, it's why they can't get a warrant, but clearly they don't care. #ACAB #ABOLISHICE www.cnn.com/2025/08/09/u...
And then whinybrag about how how "dangerous" their jobs are, even though "qualified-immunity-gang member" doesn't even crack the top 10 most dangerous professions. Construction workers in truck drivers have more dangerous jobs than cops.
"A federal judge in Texas [of course] removed a Biden-era finalized rule..." "U.S. District Court Judge Sean Jordan of Texas’s Eastern District [at least it wasn't Matt Kacsmaryk this time], who was appointed by President Donald Trump..." apnews.com/article/cfpb...
We have JROTC in high schools here in the states. I did Air Force JROTC. We didn't call it STEM back in the 80s, but we learned meteorology, aerodynamics, aerial navigation, rocketry... all requiring trig & calculus. And most of us DIDN'T go on to join the military. Maybe it's not all bad?
Satan will not abide by being besmirched by the likes of South Park.
I'd love to sign but the ACLU *requires* me to let them send spam to my inbox, and I ain't down with that cuz it should be optional. We're all just whistling past the graveyard anyway, so it doesn't really matter.
DHS has arrested two medical personnel at a surgical center in California for demanding that the officers trespassing in their building identify themselves & provide a warrant, accusing them of another.... wait for it... ASSAULT. The case shows how DHS lies relentlessly to violate the Constitution
After looking at this douche's feed, I think he's another George Santos, just some dumbass looking to make himself famous by being over the top. I don't believe for a second that he's a serious politician.
They are surreptitiously taught by their churches and general conservative culture that voting for a Dem, no matter how objectively bad the Repub candidate is, is literally spitting in their god's eye & pissing on the baby Jesus.
This story is exploding across the Texas political scene this morning
Just tossing this out as a reminder on how the folks in the fascist party really are. #TheAlliedForces www.yahoo.com/news/lauren-...
And these are the people who want to control women's bodies and dictate how parents can raise their children.
Crap like this is why I'm currently planning to just stay in Thailand (at least 50yo & 2K/mo income or $25K savings gets you a 1yr retirement visa) when I go there for surgery next year. The Constitution means NOTHING to this regime, and Congress & SCOTUS are enablers. gizmodo.com/fcc-to-appoi...
Gorgeous! I second what @rnmay.bsky.social said. I took these outside of Driggs, ID with a Samsung S23 Ultra on a tripod. I had no idea my phone could take pics like this! Going to Winter Park CO in Aug, hope I can find a good spot for more shots like this.
OF COURSE it's our own Sen. Collegedropout Plumberboy saying the quiet part out loud. I'm perpetually embarrassed by the dumbasses we have representing the Sooner State in congress. www.alternet.org/gop-senator-...
Wow, triggered much?
LOL, are you seriously trying to play the elementary school "I'm rubber & you're glue" thing here? Wow, that's uhh... I kinda expected more, but if that's what you're going with, okay.
Oh I'm sure they *think* they do, but I suspect that most of them understand the concept about as well as they understand scripture and the Constitution.
It's cute how you try to pivot to cries of racism after BEING TOLD. Esp. since no one knew you were black until YOU claimed you were, in response to BEING TOLD. 🤡
You being black? Nothing. You carrying water for racist-ass conservatives has everything to do with it tho. Your understanding of democracy as a form of government is woefully incomplete, but based on how many times you've already BEEN TOLD, I don't feel the need to tell your dumb ass again.
LOL, you clearly haven't listened to much NPR in the last 15 years then. And do you even realize that PBS and NPR are not the same thing?
A. Why would you ever have a male OB-GYN. Just the thought of it is creepy AF. B. Society should no longer tolerate the insanity of genuine belief in ancient middle eastern superstitions, since it's obvious that it does far more harm than good. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...
I'm just waiting for the shooting to start. They're gonna push things too far, someone's gonna stand their ground against a couple of these jackwagons, then when the bodies are ID'd it'll be discovered that ICE is sending untrained, unqualified thugs on these kidnappings.
**NOTE** This happened in Huntington Park in LA County, not H. Beach in Orange (corrupt AF) County.
I swear, you people bring that up every time you can, even when it's entirely unrelated like it is here, which you obviously recognized. But all someone has to do is mention the word "democracy" & y'all are programed to spew "We're a REPUBLIC!" like everyone doesn't know that already.
Never a fan of I-N-O, but consider this if you are. "...Snyder cited COVID-era business restrictions, such as mask mandates and vaccine requirements, as particular elements of California policy that made it difficult to operate in the state." www.businessinsider.com/in-n-out-lyn...
Let me guess; we're a republic NOT a democracy.
These "good christians" learned well from Joseph Gobbels
😂😂😂😂
Imagine believing in an all-powerful God who creates imperfect beings, then threatens eternal torture on them for being imperfect. God really is a Republican.
That's gorgeous! I took these with my phone in Driggs, ID. I had no idea it would do long exposures. Took 2.5 days to get there from Oklahoma City.
Every timeline on #bluesky needs this!
Good morning 🫡
I hate to be a doomsayer but we've all seen this movie before, and even though this remake may not look EXACTLY like the original from 90 years ago, we all know how the 3rd act goes.
Because OF-FUKNG-COURSE this is a thing that can happen in this stupid fukdup timeline!
ATTENTION! If you're still on Twitter & follow The Pissed Off Lawyer, unfollow now. SHE has detransed & has gone full-on TERF. Can't express just how disappointed I am in this person rn.
Wow, pedantic much?
Roberts & the other 5 Christofascists don't understand just how vulnerable each of them & their families actually are. They THINK they're safe. They aren't. The only reason they still enjoy a measure of safety is because they haven't pushed We The People quite far enough... yet. Getting close tho.
Magneto's speech hits different when you're 🏳️⚧️ www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjcceoGK/
To this day though I still don't believe GWB was in on the lies. We know Cheney and Rumsfeld had their thumbs on the intelligence and some of the agencies, and that they both had plenty to gain financially from a war. I think "Dubya" was always just a puppet.
Yeah I saw that, but again it's just his word for it. I hate it that I can't just trust people anymore about things like this.
I had an appointment at a USPS acceptance facility for this morning cuz my pre-transition passport was issued 27ish years ago. I didn't even bother going after reading about all this last night & am feeling depressed today. Like WTF is the point, this admin is just gonna ignore the court anyway.
Because most of them, along with the powers "behind the curtain" of this administration, are evangelical "Christians." They are taught so much intolerance and hate in their churches
I'm sorry but between AI fakes and folks making up outlandish claims, either righteously trying to bring attention to an issue or douchebaggedly just fishing for clicks/views, I'm very dubious about this. Is there anything besides social media to back this up? Cuz I can't find any.
How 'bout that?
Words like "talented" and "intelligent" aren't particularly pejorative. That's why the talentless and stupid had to come up with the word "arrogant." That said, in my experience most mean girls are just bullies who are cruel just to feel superior cuz they're secretly afraid they are inferior.
Do you really want to know why the numbers you presented are irrelevant? I can give you a real, civil answer that I'd be happy to discuss with you IF you're actually open to seriously considering the info. If you just want to bash on trans people tho, I won't waste my time.
So why is it that you believe you're smarter than all the science regarding gender & gender identity?
LOL, twist harder Redhat. I love watching you guys squirm when you know you've been caught.
LOL, nice try clown. I notice you went straight to attacking ME rather than addressing the issue at hand. I'm sure you know which logical fallacy that is. You can't refute 100 years of science so you try to shift the focus to me. Just admit that you're a science denier.
Maybe she was once, but not anymore...
Yeah, leading through throwing trans people under the bus by saying that the minimal amount of support for the trans community that was expressed by only a few Dem politicians was "overplaying their hand." She's no leader.
bsky.app/profile/rene...
I just hope you realize that now you will FOREVER be lumped in with the likes of Caitlyn Jenner by the trans community you're throwing under the bus. Do you think your desperate ploy to convince your bullies to back off you by 5% was worth sacrificing your image, your reputation, and your soul?
So VA docs are now allowed to refuse to treat a veteran if they're single, LGBTQ+, or a Democrat, among other things. Let that sink in. The Illegitimate Trump Regime has said that it's perfectly fine for VA providers to refuse to treat veterans. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Cute pic. Still smells like your ass though, which is where you pulled it from. How is it that you arrogant asses, who didn't even have trans people on your radar until your political masters TOLD YOU to be angry about us, believe you're so much smarter than 100 years of research & study?
I've no doubt that she went to congress being all idealistic, but like so many fresh congress critters, "the system" corrupted her.
If a trans woman is forced to have her passport identify her as male it can easily out her.
Oh, dunno. I'll be surprised if it gets lots of attention though.
Which "they" are you talking about?
