Slava Ukraini. Underemployed political news junkie, wondering what the hell is going to happen next. There will be swearing. Human rights aren’t negotiable. ACAB. TACO. Right wing low lives blocked on sight, so don’t even bother.

Supreme Court poised to permanently entrench Republican rule The latest move by SCOTUS is a "five alarm fire"

"If SCOTUS guts the Voting Rights Act, the prospect of Republicans stealing only 5 seats in Texas will feel quaint. While California must counteract what the GOP is doing in Texas, we don’t have enough seats to counteract what they could do if the VRA if gutted. It cement permanent GOP rule."

2024 was the last chance to keep him out by voting, and it failed. He has absolutely no intention of leaving office, and maga have no intention of giving up power.

It's clear that @fifaclubworldcup.bsky.social needs to pull the cup out of America. It's just not safe for attendees, especially foreign attendees, players, staff, and officials to travel to the US or attend the event.

It's a disaster begging to happen.

‘Self-termination is most likely’: the history and future of societal collapse An epic analysis of 5,000 years of civilisation argues that a global collapse is coming unless inequality is vanquished

“The threat is from leaders who are “walking versions of the dark triad” – narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism – in a world menaced by the climate crisis, nuclear weapons, artificial intelligence and killer robots.”

An interesting read about how we stave off societal collapse.

Holy shit this is real Soviet/N. Korean style stuff. After the dismal jobs report Trump is going to fire people who compile the data and replace them with hacks. The markets and American people will never be able to trust these numbers again.

Are the subs there to look for the Epstein files? Or where all those missing jobs went?

So the US jobs report was terrible. It’s almost as if the guy behind all those failed businesses doesn’t know what he’s doing. Perhaps re-electing him wasn’t a good idea, but what do I know?

And ‘Obama spied on my campaign’ again. Which as per his own court’s decision, he’s immune from anyway.

Now he’s on the bench, I predict that Clarence and Samuel are going to announce their retirements soon to let him and Aileen Canon take their places.

Holy shit. Did Trump just admit he had a falling out with Epstein because he “stole”16 year old Virginia Giuffre from him?

I went to New York last year, first time in the US, didn’t feel unsafe, not for one second. But I guess there’s a lot of money to be made in being a pissy right wing cry baby these days.

When people say he’s a toddler it’s quite literal; he has no concept of ownership, if he sees something he likes it’s his now, and if he can’t have it he throws a temper tantrum. That’s what his whinging over the Nobel peace prize is; “Obama got one, I want one!!!”
