americans and brits getting into another online fight over food and each shouting “our food is better than your slop! just look at all our delicious food made by the people we think should be violently deported!”
So evil.
In June 2023 White House said Joe Biden had complications from a “painful root canal”. The White House Press corps did wall to wall coverage of President Biden’s root canal. FOX had panel after panel discussing if Biden was well enough to continue. But when Trump may be dying. Crickets #ProudBlue
Joe Biden is out buying ice cream while everyone is asking whether Trump is dead.

Good.
As rumors fly that Trump has suffered a stroke, I was reminded that the motherfucker has always been a loathsome piece of shit. To make more money with a different tenant, Trump threw 74-year-old widow, Mary Filan, who had recently suffered a stroke out of her Queens apartment.
Yeah, we need more stupid armed people.
You don't have to wear rubber gloves to hand out cups.
They would still need to be packaged to prevent them from getting dirty.

Good one.
Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.
What about criticism of the government of Israel?
Men get so disappointed when they find out they're having a daughter because they realize they have to spend the next 18+ years protecting her from all the harassment they put so much energy into convincing other women doesn't exist.
We are all responding to this regime in our own way.
That's not what we need (editor here), we need a reviewer who points out flaws in logic, sees places where things can be clarified and/or expanded upon, and things not properly presented. Don't rewrite their work, find the weak places and point them out.
Proof that what passes for American justice is broken.
MO Gov Mike Kehoe is calling a special session to gerrymander the 5th District which encompasses Kansas City. He is specifically violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which bans any voting practice that denies or weakens the power of a racial minority to elect its preferred candidates.
Cornell West has been such a disappointment. Minstrel idiot.
Why not?
‼️Eighty-six years ago, the world entered the bloodiest war in history. Its outbreak became possible because for too long the dictator was not confronted with force. Instead, attempts were made to appease him with concessions and negotiations.

Infrastructure bill? Obamacare?
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.

An upcoming news conference with victims of Jeffrey Epstein could be “explosive,” one of the congressmen pushing for full release of the files on Epstein predicts. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said the victims’ accounts will force lawmakers to vote on a bill requiring DOJ to release its files.
This.
Pretty much.

They can only lie.
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
The hypocrisy is a feature.
A mother is filing a $1 million claim after her 15-year-old son was held at gunpoint by immigration goons in Los Angeles.
Telegraph: Israel plans to imprison Greta Thunberg and declare her a 'terrorist' for trying to breake the siege and deliver food to Gaza.

Good point.
We are long past the tipping point here.
You can’t vote your way out of regressive fascism, that said voting is not useless. It’s a twist on a tourniquet, it helps tighten the wound so the body doesn’t die, however it won’t permanently stop the bleeding on its own. Every action counts and all put together you’ve got a shot at victory. #3E
RFK Jr cut half a billion dollars in research funding for mRNA vaccines. He & Marty Makary claim mRNA vaccines are “risky” so they’ll shift to “traditional, older” vaccine tech that’s “safer.” Guess what? We used to immunize people by blowing powdered smallpox scabs up their noses. 1/

Petty and stupid.
The way that housing co-ops work in Switzerland may seem foreign to many. But the central idea is simple: What if homeownership had no profit motive and no capital gains? Advocates say their model could reshape how the world thinks about affordable housing. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/r...
Shilling for fascism.
