Selbst die Mehrheit der Unionswähler war für Brosius-Gersdorf. Auch die Mehrheit der Unionswähler lehnt eine Zusammenarbeit mit der AfD ab. Aber CDU-nahe Millionäre bezahlen Millionen, um CDU-Abgeordnete mit Fake News zu indoktrinieren, die Wähler sollen folgen. Der Rechtsruck kommt von oben.

The greatest irony of weirdos calling Bluesky “an echo chamber“ is the fact that they themselves spend most of their time on a social network that’s mostly an empty room.

#Demokratie

Das ist wirklich dramatisch. Die Kampagne von ganz Rechtsaußen, mitgetragen von der #CDU, treibt #BrosiusGersdorf ins Aus. Eine nachvollziehbare Entscheidung angesichts des Drucks – und eine Enttäuschung, dass diese Kampagne Erfolg hat. Richtig bitter, wieder ein Stück Demokratie weggebrochen.

"Die Juristin Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf steht als Kandidatin für ein Richteramt am Bundesverfassungsgericht nicht mehr zur Verfügung. In einer persönlichen Erklärung teilte die Kandidatin der SPD mit, CDU und CSU hätten signalisiert, dass ihre Wahl ausgeschlossen sei."

Ein Erfolg für die Hetzer. 🫠

Glückwunsch!

I think watching South Park Trump drop-kick South Park Vance while South Park Kristi’s face falls off and has to be chased around Mar a Lago gives me at least the illusion that we might be okay.

Bummer when you have to cancel the conspiratorial meeting of your pedophile cabal because of leaks.

As described.

Genau. Man muss nicht dauerhaft ein gutes System ändern für ein endliches Phänomen.

Es ist aber schon tragisch, was für eine rechte Gurkentruppe aus der Partei geworden ist. Eine FDP Ministerin hat noch in den 90ern endlich den §175 abgeschafft.

Konsequent.

Same guy.

Why was Trump on the roof of the White House? My guess is that he was trying to figure out where to put the huge Trump sign to declare the White House is his forever.

‘God, please fix me’: Inside the dangerous resurgence of ‘ex-gay’ conversion therapy | CNN More than half of US states ban the discredited and harmful practice of conversion therapy for gay people. But former practitioners say it’s making a comeback.

The Supreme Court prepares to end voting rights as we know it And they don't want you to notice.

Everyone in DC knows that if you want to hide something, announce it on a Friday in August. Better yet, make it nearly impossible to track down.

That's exactly what SCOTUS did last week. But the news is too staggering to hide for long: SCOTUS has decided it's time to destroy the Voting Rights Act.

Should have endorsed the non-criminal candidate, WaPo.

Like the Koch brothers and other conservative billionaires, Dunn and Wilks want to slash regulations and taxes.

My hat is respectfully doffed to all who’ve brought the book to life. For even despite the talent involved, I would still have been amazed to even sort-of enjoy it. That it’s fabulously good … well, crikey!

Catching up with Absolute Wonder Woman. It’s everything I distrust, to put it politely: ‘new’ and ‘dark’ corporate universes with reboots of classic characters. I can’t tell you little I wanted to even sample this book. Even now instinct/experience says ‘NO’.

But it’s darn well brilliant, you know?
