NYT ran 300+ articles in 2024 about Biden's age in dramatic & effective campaign to destroy him; daily drumbeat from paper of record trickled through Corporate Media into public zeitgeist

NYT ran 1 article in 2025 about Trump's age, then went right back to SaneWashing him; Trump has public meltdown

This isn’t about Democrats or Republicans—it’s about protecting victims. Spare me the partisan games.

Right is right, wrong is wrong. If you believe in law and order, you should want every trafficker and enabler exposed so survivors can finally get the justice they deserve.

The ECHR was set up after WWII to ensure that fascism never again arose in Europe. Why do the right want to curb/limit/leave/abolish the ECHR? Because it does what it was intended to do, that's why...

Wow.

Reader it absolutely did not

Controversial "ICE was here" nativity display in Massachusetts to remain until priest speaks to archbishop The controversial "ICE was here" nativity scene at a Dedham, Massachusetts church will remain until the priest can speak with the Archbishop of Boston Richard Henning.

Sovereignty For Me, None For Thee Donald Trump's 2025 National Security Strategy reveals a radical blood-and-soil conception of national strategy based on maintaining white patriarchal Christian domination at home and abroad.

Anyway, @joestieb.bsky.social’s gist here rips:

“The disparate elements of this poorly written NSS are unified by the right’s desire to preserve … the domination of white Christian men in American society, of the U.S. in the Western hemisphere, and of white Christian civilization in the world.”

So we, as audience goers, are made into
busybodies simply by watching to the end of the movie. If it's none of my business whether she went to that orgy, as you've just spent 90 minutes lecturing me, why do you feel compelled to tell me that she is not an orgy kind of person? A bullshit movie.

The Contender. The whole movie lectures us that the private sexual experiences of a Vice Presidential candidate are nobody's business but hers. Did she or didn't she go to that orgy? Only horrible hypocritical busybodies want to know! Then at the end we learn that she didn't; she's a good girl. 1/2

It’s important to remember that Laura Ingraham went to Dartmouth. She’s not as stupid as she sounds. She’s just a shameless liar.

The issue at stake in 1686 was whether the king was bound by the law.
How are we back here again?

"How very young she still is?" Older than Alexander when he ran out of worlds to conquer? Than Anne Frank when she was murdered? Than Taylor Swift when *she* conquered the world? Than the oldest Beatle when they split? Than 9 of 10 soldiers killed on Omaha Beach? Than Carole King when she wrote. . .

To criticize his performance is to give validity to its premise: that ability to do a pull up has any bearing on a person's worth or ability to do their job. Fuck that shit. All should deplore this infantile nonsense from the highest ranking scientific officer in the United States of America.

WATCH: An ICE agent pushes away a home security camera as she approaches a house.

This is what a police state looks like.

this hitler youth sequel sucks

If you are in Minnesota, this is specifically for you.

If you are not in Minnesota, read it anyway. The grim truth is that you are likely to need this type of information and thinking in the very near future.

Talk to your neighbors. Plan ahead.

I know this man smells like someone baked a ham with dirty socks.

“Have Yourself A Merriam Little Christmas”

Merriam, a career-oriented lexicographer from the city, returns to her small town for the holidays and meets Webster, a ruggedly handsome librarian, who shows her the true DEFINITION of Christmas.

Nigeria’s government has secured the release of 100 schoolchildren who were abducted last month in Niger state in one of the country’s worst mass kidnappings to date, local broadcaster Channels Television reported.

I don’t care if the deal isn’t approved on antitrust grounds. Media company consolidation is a crime inflicted on America just like Citizen’s United. But if it is done to steer this deal to his pal Ellison to create an even worse situation that would be yet another travesty. bsky.app/profile/atru...

There are two Omni aircraft underway right now that are likely long-range ICE removals. The other one left an ICE hub about 16 hours ahead of this one.

Not a lot to love here.

That’s the spirit. A real American standing up for our freedom and the sacred right of free speech.

Rep. Ilhan Omar: "When I think about Stephen Miller and his white supremacist rhetoric, it reminds me of the way the Nazis described Jewish people in Germany."

Bluesky suspended a woman distressed over her husband being kidnapped by the secret police, but they didn't ban an official government account posting footage of crimes against humanity they committed while threatening to commit more.

This tells me it's not actually about violent speech.

bad actors like wurman are why i think it is important to place the birthright clause in the full context of section 1 and section 1 in the context of both dred scott and the two decades of antislavery and abolitionist agitation and political thinking that proceeded it

Literally professional victims

so much of the conservative legal revolution seems to outright reject the idea that democratic publics legitimately constituted can fix the meaning of the constitution without formal amendment.
