Literally go fuck yourself

That's not how I feel about her at all. Speak for yourself, because you're certainly not qualified to speak for the community.

Can't graduate into a bad economy if you drop out

The reason I don't doompost or tell people to flee the country is because it's tantamount to telling all of these resisting citizens that their actions are pointless and that they should just lay down and die.

The one bit of good news about the Atlantic article is that it seems like Musk isn't (yet) involved in military planning discussions, which wasn't something I thought I'd have to worry about two months ago but is good to know anyway

i think the takeaway we should have for the idea that "staffs exist" is that they actually don't; the government is being run by a few hundred people under the tight leash of a few dozen people. this is because there is no constituency anywhere for the constellation of views held by administration.

it's so cool how Grand Vizier Chat (secret) is not only real but in fact the preferred policymaking apparatus of the global hegemon

hooting and hollering as me and boys stomp on some guy named Lucius in tuscany

The funniest possible outcome is if right wing conspiracy theorists are right (for once) & most anti-Trump protestors were just being paid to protest, but Trump cutting off their $$$ just creates a horde of newly-unemployed experienced protestors who have a grudge against Trump so nothing changes

This, to me, is liberalism (laudatory)

I chose it to be others' hands. I'm not doing their work for them

This, precisely, is what I think Dem voters want from their representatives: direct confrontation with people who are used to bullying others both as a matter of substance and style. You don't have to back down to these fucking clowns.

Senate Democrats block GOP-led bill to ban transgender athletes from women's sports Republicans are trying to keep the national spotlight on the issue after Trump and some of the party's down-ballot candidates ran on it in the 2024 election.

The entire Democratic party voted in unison last week to defend trans people from discrimination and this entire site consciously refused to acknowledge it while jerking off over a single out of context quote from a Republican.

After the Gaetz nom got torpedoed I get why dems thought agreeing to vote for Bessent and Burgum might've gotten them the support to stop Vought and Gabbard, but after those noms sailed through hopefully the democrats have learned their lesson and are going to be a proper opposition party now 🤞🤞

I just finally watched I Saw The TV Glow. Incredible movie, I wish trans people were real 😞

As the forces of hatred are on the march, my promise is this:

Our trans neighbors will continue to be safe, protected, and welcome in Minnesota.

removal of Musk's goons from GSA and Treasury's payment system and appointment of an independent prosecutor that Trump can't fire to investigate what happened should be the table stakes for any Dem votes on the budget or debt ceiling. Should get more than that, but that's a bare minimum.

Yeah, “whoever controls the treasury controls the government” is such an unheard of concept that only a genius could think of that it was the first fucking thing Henry I did in 1100 after his brother William II Rufus died

checked out doomer lefties, trolls and 5th columnists: "the Dems won't do anything and even if they do Trump will just ignore the law"

relatively normie lib gen Xer Jamie Raskin: 1776 WILL COMMENCE AGAIN

The constitution includes a very robust set of tools that the other branches have to reel in a president like Trump, but the Republicans that control those branches are just pretending don't exist, and the "liberal media" are refusing to point any of it out

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

Anti-Trump demonstrators in Los Angeles have taken over the 101 freeway to protest ICE deportation raids.

A CNN headline that says "Senators reach deal to advance Cabinet nominees, avoid weekend session"

Imagine if Yoon had launched his coup and in response the National Assembley hadn't held an emergency session to override him and had instead said "That sounds bad but it's after 5 o'clock. We'll do something tomorrow."

That's basically what's happening in Washington this week

A screen grab of a news website that lists "Chance of asteroid hitting Earth" as a trending topic

You know what, sure. Why not.

The primary conservative goal is to use the coercive power of the state to eliminate the public existence of people they don't approve of, and the people who tell you otherwise are being paid to lie to you.

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.
