My β€œmom and pop” landlord stole almost $4,000 from us because he knew we were moving out of the city and couldn’t come back to fight it in court.

Trump’s Big Loser Energy, and Other Tales From the Annals of Political Messaging A few days ago Donald Trump said he’s deciding to β€œnationalize” American...

Trump is talking about nationalizing our elections because he can’t stand the thought of losing.
Rather than outrage, "contempt, scorn and, yes, laughter are the only proper responses to Trump's claims and demands," @joshtpm.bsky.social writes.

This is entirely true. The policies being undertaken at the federal level are, issue by issue, deeply unpopular. But our electoral outcomes are corrupted by constitutional anachronisms, gerrymandering and organized voter suppression. Government by the people is farce.

What makes this passage really funny is that Roberts "invented" a whole stupid analytical framework for the case, whole totally ignoring the ancient tradition of how we handle illegal, ultra vires action by executive officials

One of the scariest aspects of the Trump administration is that they continue to make us vulnerable to an ever lengthening list of disasters that haven't happened yet but eventually will.

Read the book β€œYou Might Go to Prison Even Though You’re Innocent,” and the author made a point of calling it the β€œCriminal Legal System” not the β€œCriminal Justice System” because there is so little actual justice happening.

The word don't is censored. Don't, or Don T. If you're looking for just some fun proof they're doing control+f censoring

The truth that terrifies them so much that they need a racism pacifier is that men like Trump and Musk do have "bad genes." They are genetically inferior. And I can say that because my genes aren't great either. I know where my anxiety comes from. My eyesight is trash. My nose is too small and high.

Why Delia Ramirez thinks DHS needs to be dismantled "Why would we ever want to give them more money to keep doing what they’re doing?"

β€œLet’s make sure no more money goes toward this agency of terror, and redirect those funds back into the communities that have been most impacted by this harm that Congress has allowed to go on for far too long.”

Love how the presumption here is that the President doesn't know what he's sharing and that's fine and normal.

Sorry, no, if the President doesn't know what he's sending out then that is indisputable proof of gross incompetence, cognitive unfitness, or both.

when i was a 16yo girl i thought i was an adult. coaching 12-17yo girls as a 28yo really hammered home how much i was wrong about being an adult at 16 and how obvious it is to actual adults that a 16yo is not an adult. if they say they cannot tell they are lying because they are a creep.

I remember what it was like during the Recession to be working 12-hr days as a warehouse temp as our family was losing everything (including, eventually, the house I grew up in) while the TV & politicians told us that the economy was "great" & "bouncing back" because Wall St was doing great...
