I think a lot of progressives would love to see Clinton out of politics and that *is* one way for it to happen.

I think the Southern Strategy predates 2008 by about 40 years.

Kind of makes you wonder how he would have made decisions as a justice on the Supreme Court

Pretend GOP talking point: β€œListen, grocery prices are well below 1% of Americans’ net income.”

Clarification of this pretend GOP talking point: the only Americans they care about are billionaires.

Are we including the ages of the corporations buying the homes to rent them out as investment properties in the calculation of median home buyer ages?

I’m curious as to the musical style this album cover art is packaging.

It feels very fitting that anti-progressives are embracing AI-content slop in their political ads.

But they are the β€œParty of Family Values”. πŸ™„ I remember that clearly as a teen in the 1990s.

Like when Newt Gingrich went after Bill Clinton for his affair. 🀣 Yeah, dude you *both* were adulterers.

Thanks for stating that clearly. 15 years old is definitely NOT legal for someone in their 30s, 40s, etc. Also not legal for an 18 year old to have sex with in an 15 year old in most every American jurisdictions, I imagine.

Not enough people are reminding the public during this current Epstein Files drama that Trump’s first choice as AG was himself caught up in a scandal about *girls*.

No legitimate reason, but I suspect that it was propaganda and recruiting material for the type of man that want serving in ICE and Border Patrol, so it probably was useful to them.

Well, that was the most disturbing thing that I have ever read on BlueSky and most of my feed seems to be posts about Trump and ICE. That last sentence of "and the father was never found" gives so many feelings.

Out of curiosity, what's the current count of female Republican representatives who are divorced, married but never divorced, and never married?

The Republican Health Care plan is this: The people who hoard wealth should be able to buy the best health care outcomes. Therefore, a stratified health care system is necessary.

NGL, Trump has changed the course of America. A large portion of the population now think it’s ok to put bullies into positions of power.

Yeah, I think the Senators are afraid of travel nightmares around the Thanksgiving holiday. My guess about their motivations right about now.

Not to mention some non-zero number of voters will starve, not receive needed health care, or even be sent to another country by ICE by November of next year.

β€˜You Are All Terrorists’: Four Months in a Salvadoran Prison

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

Sandwich guy *was* a grave and important matter. The entire incident was to make protest too scary for potential protestors.

I know that many guys would automatically feel offended by being called a possible rapist and miss the point of the article. Trying to get those guys to understand a woman's point of view must be exhausting.

Man who threw sandwich at US federal agent found not guilty of assault Former justice department employee’s lawyers argued it was a β€˜harmless gesture’ during an act of protest

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... Well, he was still arrested and had to go through a trial over this, which is still a chilling affect on protestβ€”as intended.
