I always think of Gandalfs line in LOTR, "I pity even his slaves". Coupled with his swift condemnation of Frodo's wish that Bilbo had killed Gollum and I feel that even though Tolkien never fixed his orc problem, his view was always to see even evil characters as worthy of compassion and mercy.

They will come for the cop unions eventually. The hubris of their support for the party out to end public employee unions is epically poetic.

I wondered when they were going to turn on the Federalist society.

Hes always been like this. Remember he was one of the key leaders of the Afghan withdrawel lynch mob. Notice he's not doing that for Trump...

Cop unions have the biggest Trump ass kissers from the start. Even though it was clear he was going to do this, they endorsed him anyway. BTW, which party has been blocking the money for 9/11 first responders?

Why are we letting the real culprits, the Suppreme Court, judge Cannon, and the saboteurs left over from trumps DOJ?

This is a profoundly stupid idea even for Trump.

The GOP kept this at a low simmer for decades, just enough to drive ratings and voter turnout, but not enough to actual resolve when a bill came to a vote. Now its put up or shut up time. No one delivers Karma more brually than the face eating leopards.

Its not really about progressive vs conservative in CA on this issue. NIMBY is bipartisan. Huntington Beach is a MAGA stronghold and is fighting state housing mandates harder than anyone. But enviro laws like CEQA need to be updated ASAP because they have been weaponized to an absurd degree.

Its really about the death of the cable business. I have no idea what Comcast considers a political liability, but its pretty clear this is a part of their strategy to deal with that inevitable outcome. .

She is doing this to raise her profile and raise money for herself. She achieves that no matter what dems do. It has nothing to do with "stomach". By all mean squash it, but it might be useful for everyone who fights for trans rights to be more strategic what we spend our time and resources on.

guy who argues about how healthcare in the United States is a broken hypercapitalist hellscape but after some digging it turns out every example he gives of why it’s bad is just something the Yankees’ medical staff did
