No one should ever describe Buttigieg as smart or politically savvy again.

Yes. He has to... because he is a rich white racist fuck. Tl

It's a page out of the dictator playbook to declare fake emergencies to enable power grabs. That's exactly what's happening now.

He will never be president. You'd think his experience with his "complicated" thoughts on Medicare 4 All in 2020 would have taught him to recognize the folly in bullshit pandering and ignoring the base.

Yes. We do know how it turned out. How about we skip 1934-1945 and get straight to the Nuremberg part.

These people need to be put in front of a Nuremberg style tribunal. Every one of them- and the ICE agents and judges who carry out their orders- should spend the rest of their lives looking over their shoulders for *actual* law enforcers on their trail.

RFK Jr. is a stochastic terrorist who is part of an administration full of the same. Period.

I think part of the answer is a 50 state Dem unity platform that is well and uniformly articulated. That is asking a lot of Schumer, Jeffries, etc... the party that can't back Mamdani and has sacrificed young voters.

I understand that. The question is: what must be done in order to do that. If I'm not mistaken, the Democrats were within a couple votes of getting that done in 2020. The direct question is, do the Dems risk it by starting the war or do they take the loss in TX and risk losing the house that way?

I heard Talerico say, "You don't fight fire with fire. You fight fire with water." Meaning, fire hose. I wonder what that is if not a gerrymandering war. Certainly, Dem leadership are not good communicators, so it's a disadvantage on many levels.

This is similar to the trans moral panic- entirely a construction of the Right, marketed to liberals who now think Harris lost because *she* focused too much on trans rights.

Juan JosΓ© Ramos Ramos, Andry Omar Blanco Bonilla and Wilmer JosΓ© Vega Sandia committed NO crimes and were sent to CECOT. Convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell is being moved to a country club prison as her accomplice in the White House mulls a pardon. #MAGAJustice

He thinks baseball has special teams like football. Terrible at managing people.

To elevate one's status among racists and prove that there are no limits to the chaos and cruelty that can be inflicted? To undermine the least little attempt to educate people? To prove that stupidity and power are not mutually exclusive?

Giving Aaron Boone interchangeable parts and the option for in-game "coaching" is like giving a monkey a gun.

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

Cory Booker (D-NJ) voted against Bernie’s resolution to block sales of assault rifles to Israel.

This year, Israeli soldiers killed a 14-year-old from New Jersey.

You need the gun control because β€œidiot” control is not possible or ethical.
