Fascism Heckler

One of the Atlantic’s Jordan Peterson fans weighs in

I assume this photo was selectively chosen but if this is the average shape they’re in might as well have sent a bunch of random Texas sheriff’s deputies.

Trump: we don’t need to pay furloughed federal workers

Federal workers: we don’t have to work for no pay

this kind of thing is why I think the environmental/consumer-critical side of things are capable of just as much anti/inhumanity as the tech/consumerist side. there’s no legitimate reason to report on this whatsoever, this information can only do harm

Imagine how they'll feel if Trump pardons her.

And how will MAGA feel about that? Or the non-MAGA Trump voters? It's hard to imagine that there's much of a constituency for pardoning the world's most notorious sex-trafficker.

we gotta rip these republicans out of the court man

“You faked these atrocities which also would have been totally justified if real” pops up in all forms of denialism

If the National Governors Association chooses to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.

We should be standing as one against the idea that Donald Trump can call up the National Guard against our will.

I have a feeling this wont be a problem for her anymore after next year

Gonna really clinch that Nobel Peace Prize with this

Bikes are effective get away vehicles against every kind of cop I guess

Its Trump talking out of his ass--again--and news media doing the work for him in presenting it as a coherent and workable plan

Two things to keep in mind as you watch clips of Pam Bondi today in the Senate:

1. As Florida AG, she dropped her investigation of fraud at Trump University after Trump gave $25K to her election campaign.

2. She was Trump's second choice for federal AG after Matt Gaetz.

it’s best not to ever think about mushrooms too much

Super excited for Greg Abbott when the shoe is on the other foot in just a few short years

This is not going to end well. Sooner or later an American citizen is going to get killed.

Do you really think the average Congresscreature, no matter what you think of them, will be able to resist the opportunity to grandstand and probe some of the most unpopular people in the nation in front of cameras????

Dems are already talking like that and the only reason why we haven't seen anything bigger is that they currently do not have any levers to pull here, but if you think this won't change the moment they hold the House again and a thousand hearings won't bloom I've got a bridge to sell you.

Would be pretty cool to reestablish norms where national politicians don’t feel comfortable using words like “cleansing.”

Just go ahead and delete article 1 entirely while you’re at it.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

Saul Zabar, Smoked Fish Czar of Upper West Side, Dies at 97

I grew up going to Zabar's. So many of my childhood memories center around the best lox in NYC (which is saying something). With Saul Zabar's passing today, the Upper West Side has lost a legend who turned his parent's humble store into a culinary institution.

Don't be afraid of this. Do expect extremely stupid shit to happen as a result.

Shaheen, a retiring Dem Rs are looking to flip on shutdown, says of OMB threats on back pay: “It would be a lot easier to resolve the situation if Russ Vought would stop talking.”

I'm on the record saying that Russ Vought will do things during the shutdown that will make his illegal rescissions visible in the way they otherwise weren't. And boy howdy, threatening to ignore the law on backpay is a great example. [corrected]

"we'll swear her in whenever she wants"

A good heuristic for "is this opinion bullshit?" is "did Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, or Barrett write it?"

(Holds quite well for any case that a layperson is likely to have heard of, lol)

Whether it’s Europe, Middle East, Asia, the moon, there’s no issue, conflict, war, coup, anywhere that’s more important to me than American Black folk

If that makes you feel a “way” interrogate yourself because every people can feel that way… except Black Americans apparently. End

I said earlier this year my number one concern is Black people in the USA and some non Black got mad.

There’s a weird sickness here who believe we have to join their cause “because it affects everyone” while they ignore any outward support of our causes.

But it’s not only leftists, it’s centrist dems too who demand Black loyalty or even fealty to their cause …

But those same folk ignore all the causes we support and need their support on until it’s convenient for them to do so.
