I’ve lived in this town since the Triassic. I think I’ve earned a voice.

Honestly don’t understand how @atrupar.com does this shit every day. The level of stupid is off the fucking chain.

Trump's pick for Secretary of Commerce...

Free Press: WHY IS NO ONE HAVING SEX? Photo of RFK and Kid Rock working out shirtless

The timeline is undefeated

I prefer someone who takes their time and offers a measured response over a nitwit who thinks they’re the smartest person in the room who shoots off their mouth and looks like an ass.

I just explained to my students that crooked politicians always like to use the passive voice to avoid accountability, and this is a pretty solid example.

Exonerated by whom, sir? When? How?

My first disappointment from Mamdani. Let's pile on the pressure on this.

For satire to work, it must either be so outrageous as to make us take pause or it must be rooted in truth. I believe this is satire rooted in truth.

Let's repost Representative Ted Lieu's statement & repeatedly spread those very words.

"Donald Trump is in the Epstein Files thousands and thousands of times.
In those files there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children, of Donald Trump threatening to kill children."

Justice for Dr. Linda Davis. ICE must be held accountable for the deadly chain of events and the cruel aftermath.

Her memory lives on in every life she touched.

Also there is very little I hate more than the "chickened out" framing that self styled liberals like Aaron David Miller have been peddling. Trump "chickening out" is the objective best case scenario but these guys are wish casting that he baits himself into following through bc they want war too.

Surprise ICE warehouse could house up to 10,000 detainees for months at a time, new documents show After weeks of speculation about what the 400,000-square-foot warehouse in Surprise might be used for, the documents confirm it will be retrofitted as an ICE detention center, potentially housing 7,00...

“Is there a technology the left is excited about?”

High-speed rail! MRNA vaccines! New cancer treatments! Solar and wind energy collection! Better and longer-range EVs! That wood that's harder than steel! New apples! Fibermaxxing! Buldak Swicy ramen! Muppets! Muppets are too a technology, shut up!

Also, it's not even her first big overseas trip. They just don't care about South America, or "south of the Equator"...she had a major trip there!

My wife Lida talking to her family in Iran.

My wife Lida got through to her family in Iran.

Keep talking about Iran 🇮🇷

In order to deflect attention away from new revelations that he raped and threatened to kill underage girls, Donald Trump will start a war with Iran.

I just want to point out that’s Doug Wilson speaking at the Pentagon. Doug Wilson wants: the 19th amendment repealed, non-Christian religions outlawed, the death penalty for homosexuality, women barred from working or holding office, blasphemy laws, and one party theocratic rule.

No war with Iran.

It needs to be said clearly that it would be absolutely insane for the United States to start a war of aggression against Iran. If anyone thinks that Trump gives a rip about democracy or human rights you are kidding yourself. It’ll be another campaign of domination and plunder.

Reunifying Arab parties aim for more power, but may wind up with more Netanyahu As Arab parties mull uniting in Joint List again, there are opposition worries that the juggernaut will end up weakening the anti-Netanyahu bloc, unintentionally keeping PM in power

The *only reason* that a more powerful Arab Joint List would disempower the anti-Netanyahu bloc in the forthcoming election is because the anti-Netanyahu bloc has almost uniformly vowed to never coalition with the Arab Joint List.

This article even admits that on paragraph eight.

AI is just a more expensive version of "wearing a beret"

Statement from Oscar-winning director Hamdan Ballal: This afternoon, nearly a year after we won the Oscar, the same settler who attacked me shortly after l returned from Los Angeles-Shem Tov Lusky-again led an attack against my home and my family. Four of my family members are currently arrested and one is in the hospital. I invite all journalists and diplomats to come visit me and my family this Tuesday, February 17, to hear about how the situation has gotten worse in the year since we won the Oscar, as it has across the West Bank. Email me to coordinate your visit: hamdanalhrane90@gmail.com Two weeks ago we managed to get a decision from the Israeli court that the area around my home is closed to non-residents, but the settlers break that order and still come with their flocks almost every day. We call the police, they do nothing. The army comes, they do nothing. Today, Shem Tov Lusky-the settler who attacked me in my home shortly after I won the Oscar last year-came with his flock to my home. My brother called the police to report the incursion. The army came first and immediately raided our house, attacking everyone inside. Then they arrested two of my brothers, a nephew, and cousin. Another brother was badly injured and is now in the hospital. The Israeli court decision was supposed to make things a bit quieter for us. But the opposite has been true. The settlers have ramped up their harassment and the Israeli authorities have done nothing to enforce the decision, and today they joined the settlers in the attack. 8 hours ago

From Hamdan Ballal, co-director of last year’s Oscar-winning documentary “No Other Land.” This is happening now.

One student asked why some on the left make excuses for Russia. We had a chat about how an american-centric anti-american lens can really screw up your moral compass

They are going to do this to every Democrat who tries to run for president, not just AOC. We must have all of their backs in this.

His alleged mistress left her precious heated blanket on the other plane, so Corey Lewandowski demanded the pilot turn the plane around to go get it.

When he refused, Lewandowski -- who has zero authority to fire anyone at any time -- tried to fire the pilot IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLIGHT.

Dem voters on a panel unanimously saying they want a progressive candidate, not a moderate

And this was interestingly unanimous— and not being that well reflected yet in the offerings from actual Dem politicians. Word to the wise

I couldn't forward the article but I think the headline says it all.
