Yes, and Iraq hasn't exactly been all puppies and rainbows since we hanged Hussein.

They're too busy trying to figure out if they should cut us loose entirely. Meanwhile, Vanderbilt is ending all gender-affirming surgeries for ADULTS now...

This is bad news for everyone in the South, and really bad news for low-income trans folks. The surgeons getting pushed out of university hospitals will move to private practice and while SOME people will still get trans surgeries covered by insurance, those on Medicaid won’t.

We have been warning about what they were going to do to our rights, and about who they were going to go after next, for at least a decade. I lost friendships with a lot of libs who told me I was overreacting and that it would never happen, etc. and I was FUCKING RIGHT.

Holy fuck, he even looks like his father...very much a bad idea to install him without any sort of election or other method of popular feedback.

Like, seriously...NOBODY FUCKING PAYS ATTENTION TO THE TRANS COMMUNITY, DO THEY???

The whole ensuing conversation with Chanda was frustrating because they then go on to imply that the people complaining about Platner aren't equally upset with Newsom (or his staff, at least) retweeting Hanania, which is weird because the trans community has been calling out both of their asses.

Longer. At least the 1955-1979 portion of the dynasty. It's been nearly twice as long, in fact.

Of course, because I'm sure that Bari Weiss is manufacturing consent for whatever Trump wants.

No. Just fucking NO. Van Jones is old enough to remember 1979. Sure, he was in middle school, and probably more interested in learning the latest disco moves for the next school dance, but still...

You live in the United States, where the government just condemned thousands to death from dismantling USAID and where we just killed 100+ children yesterday because of reasons above and beyond just "Bibi told Trump to do it."

So you're just an anti-semite, got it. And don't even argue that you aren't, because you're spewing all of the antisemitic propaganda.

Maybe if certain fields weren't treated like they should earn beneath a living wage because they are dominated by women, and women shouldn't be working outside of the home anyhow...

LBJ never gave Nazis interviews.

There is NOTHING moral about choosing a Nazi, and if you think that he's more moral than the non-Nazi women, you need to check yourself.

They gave Paul LePage TWO terms as governor, too. Part of the problem is that Portland barely is balancing the rest of the state in most elections, and when you get north of Portland it gets pretty conservative pretty fast.

Are you so set on who is most likely to beat Collins that you are willing to put a Nazi in the seat just because he wears a blue jacket? If so, that is massively disappointing.

This is what I don't get about the people who are still supporting him. And then to say you do it because "he opposes Israel when 90% of Democrats don't" just feels like they're trying to polish anti-semitism with a "simply opposes Israel" veneer.

I swear to gods, most people in this country have a political aptitude that allows them to think of two issues at the most, and the only other thing that matters is that their team "wins" by controlling more offices, even if the people in those offices are hurting the most vulnerable among us.

Blackwater must not have gotten any contracts for the "rebuilding".

They also agree with him that the small boats must be stopped and refugees sent home to whatever they were fleeing.

Funny he's the "least corrupt in a generation" because that says a lot more about Blair, Brown, Cameron, May, BoJo, Truss, and Sunak than it does about Starmer.

Oh, that's just media deferring to people whose children died in service to our country because they made "the ultimate sacrifice".

He doesn't want to remove Johnson. He agrees with Johnson far more than he would Jeffries. That's the point.

I remember in the 1990s at Cincy, BG, and OSU, I registered for classes using phone-in systems. By the time I got my MA in 1997, I questioned why registration hadn't at least started to offer an online option.

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.
