this is what happens to people who watch too much Aaron Sorkin

07.10.2025 12:20 β π 6 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I mean it's definitely not a joke that a bunch of FedSoc lawyers want to overturn Obergefell, and I don't think Weiss would be happy with that outcome. So I'm not sure what the "joke" would be, unless she doesn't think a large number of FedSoc lawyers actually want to overturn Obergefell!
07.10.2025 12:17 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I think there's a distinction between a joke and a laugh line. This reads and sounds like a laugh line - ha! odd bedfellows in this room! - but it's not a joke. She clearly is happy to make common cause with a roomful of people who want to overturn Obergefell as long as they agree on whatever else!

If some Dems have to revert just to circa *2012* to win, they must do so.
Itβs not an intellectually consistent position to say βWe must do *anything* to stop the growing MAGA Fascismβ¦ except moderate on a couple issues where the left-wing position remains massively unpopular with normie voters.β
Refusing to do so comes from a position of quiet privilege.
So the Phillies are good for nothing huh
07.10.2025 00:05 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The Dan Goldman tweet this story is based on was incredible irresponsible. You need actual evidence to make allegations like this
06.10.2025 13:45 β π 3 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0There is no public evidence that this fire was arson and no public evidence that "MAGA" was at fault if it was arson. And using the passive voice in the headline does not relieve journalists of the obligation to make that clear www.thedailybeast.com/stephen-mill...

06.10.2025 12:18 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0People made the argument for a long time that Trump was just another Republican and all the other Republicans who came before him were just as bad.
That argument was made wrong, forever, on January 6 2021.
Isn't this referring to the Lankford bill? Schatz was paying off Trump well before he was reelected?

It was also written by a guy who called Donald Trump "America's Hitler"!
