is it not weird that every day there’s a new video of anonymous masked men having the time of their lives beating/shooting/disappearing people and the dem response from the top down is “republicans want to double your health insurance premiums”

How can everyone just stand there when every single person in that room* knows what he is saying could not be further from the truth? Day after day, I just can’t wrap my head around it.

*other than Secretary Brainworm

“Pole was one of the first victims of an outbreak of deadly violence across Dallas and Fort Worth the first weekend of October. When the weekend had come to an end, 17 people had been shot. Another three had been stabbed. 10 of those victims had died.”

But sure, send the guard to Chicago.

I had the same thought when I saw this headline earlier today regarding DFW’s violent weekend

I’m with you and will add that still is Hegseth’s worst nightmare. He is the one putting soldiers bmi up for discussion not the rest of us. Also, when a Simpsons reference comes to mind one must share it, those are the rules.

there is a government shutdown with no end in sight and it’s not even really the lead story rn because the president can’t stop invading American cities for no reason other than spite

When I was a college freshman in the late 90s those of us pursuing an international relations degree were required to have a subscription to WP and read our paper copies every morning as the professor would quiz us on the content in class. It was THE source of truth. I think of that often lately.

…during a government shutdown.

Banks employ teams of people whose entire job is fraud prevention. It’s the work of those teams that is training ai on fraud prevention, how exactly does he think ai ‘learns’?

Yes, I know the answer is he doesn’t think that deeply.

Like Homer, my brain thinks this instrument is called a tubamaba

Excellent thank you - equally if not more importantly can you address this: bsky.app/profile/npr....

The MSM isn’t even talking about it! Yes, the looming shutdown is bad but this should be the leading story right now.

If it wasn’t already clear we’ve turned the corner to authoritarianism, this ought to confirm it.

An orange cat tail on a gray carpet sticks out from under a dark blue bed. The cat to whom the tail is attached believes he is fully hidden from view.

Greg believes he is fully hidden here.

I promise it’s worth crossing over the Lake St bridge to the Longfellow Grill on the West Bank of the river. Enjoy beautiful Minneapolis!

Alt text is always important for providing context and clarity 👍🏻

We don’t call everyone who disagrees with us a Nazi, JD, just the ones doing Nazi shit like:

-masked secret police kidnapping people off the street
-creating concentration camps
-attempting to eradicate trans people
-banning/burning LGBTQ/opposing viewpoint books
-murdering fishermen in open waters

This is the fishiest shit I've ever seen. We're supposed to believe the shooter wrote "Anti-ICE" in pen on a bullet and then shot detainees but not ICE officers?

Trump's UN speech was his most embarrassing showing since the "DON'T TAKE TYLENOL" one

This whole display is horrific

Look, it’s Heroin and Adderall ganging up on Tylenol.

The most interesting part of this whole Tylenol thing is release the Epstein files.

As a person who does not eat meat I am super grossed out by the picture on the right.

Glad to hear it. Skol! 💜💛💜💛💜

I held it together until I got to the part where the busses stranded the nazis
