Remember, it was the Washington Post who gave Bondi a thumbs up to be confirmed. Democracy Docket made clear from day one that she was an election denying sycophant.
No surprise at their coverage of today. Support independent, pro-democracy media today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

It is not, when Zionism was first getting started it was secular, and they debated between two places to colonize, one being Argentina, the other being Palestine. They choose Palestine because of marketing purposesβ¦

Zionism isnβt intrinsically linked to Judaism.
Zionists would like to think it is, but there about. 3500 years separating them. So, no.

Zionism is broadly similar to a host of colonialist and colonialist-adjacent ideologies of the late 1800's, which is why my dislike of it is mostly due to the dominant model of it at present being a relic of said time (much of which is due to Netanyahu and his family's connection to Jabotinsky).

Dadβs books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending itβs their own fault. So I hope Kemiβs taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Yeah both parties need equal scrutiny for sure. The one that currently controls all branches of government, and is kidnapping and terrorizing people democrat cities as a form of punishment and also the one that sits on the sidelines making polite but muted pleas to follow the law.

Yep. It angers me when people don't point this out. Who fucking cares if it's discredited? It causes MASSIVE harm. I've been out of it for a decade and I still have trauma from it.

I need people to stop referring to conversion "therapy" as something that's been discredited or doesn't work. That's like saying torture is "discredited" or doesn't work. That they don't work for their stated purpose is secondary to the fact that they DO work for their REAL purpose:

Y'all who keep lecturing protesters to "not give them an excuse" need to pause for a minute. Imagine yourself telling a DV victim, "Be sure not to mouth off or make any mistakes so he won't hit you. Don't give him an excuse! It's what he wants!" That's what you fools sound like.

This is the glass cliff to end all glass cliffs. You're Marissa Mayer at Yahoo without the Googler street cred. You're Nancy Dubuc at Vice without the string of hit TV shows. You're Linda Yaccarino at Twitter without the advertiser relationships. You have been hired as a sop to a Trump administration that is actively hostile to the actual free press, and you will be made to oversee wave after wave of layoffs until you quit or get fired and the entire news division is shut down in a final spasm of cost-cutting after the next inescapable media merger.
