Ok I know this is old-man irritability but I don’t care if Mahmoud Khalil has a pregnant wife, I don’t care if he and his wife are childfree, I don’t care if he’s in a fucking polycule with a hedgehog and a jar of mayonnaise, NOBODY should be detained for protected speech, including singletons.

NOTE: The opponents of DEI are purging anyone who is not a white man from military leadership

This is not about merit; it’s about normalizing racism and misogyny

Trump is reflexively NIMBY and in general there are no guiding principles in MAGA other than what Trump said last so no YIMBY throughline is possible.

This might be the most nakedly corrupt document I’ve seen on DOJ letterhead β€” and I wrote a history of Watergate!

We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

Congress has the opportunity to pass the bipartisan YIMBY Act during the current lame-duck session, but partisan squabbling is preventing the bill from being brought to a vote.

If you’re wandering around being angry at people for who they follow, kindly block me and treat this as me having invited you to fuck off in a thoughtful and individualized way that you felt recognized who you were as a person

The phrase β€œI was scammed by a meme coin” seems to contain within it the wisdom the complaint is seeking

I've already seen several accounts say you promote the elimination of trans people. Which was news to me. Seems their strategy is to go on and on about you but also everyone should ignore you. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Nichols: You have the makings of a not so slow motion authoritarian takeover of the United States government. And people ought to be really concerned about this.

Good example of what Musk's government efficiency commission will actually be: Elon saw the word "diversity" and his eyes turned red, thus he picks on a highly-trained worker who has nothing to do with DEI, could earn a ton more in the private sector, but has dedicated themselves to public service

Sarah McBride could post a 24/7 stream of videos of all the random people calling for her death. Kamala Harris could have done it just with random people calling her the N word.

Doesn’t work for Dems because the media treats random ppl on TikTok like Dem operatives in a way they don’t for Reps.
