I’ve wondered this myself, and about what happens when the shutdown gets into the phase where it starts to have real bite on real people and democrats care and republicans don’t.

Can confirm my father never had to defend our home from a Mexican gang that confused me for a drug mule.

All were condemned by some. Some were condemned by all. A journalist should be willing to note the difference.

They literally attempted a coup in 2020 and in 2024 it did not matter. You'll forgive our pessimism.

For the cost of Trump's tax cuts we could fund them for 20 years.

Taibbi spent years being outraged that most Americans didn't equate content moderation with authoritarianism and I honestly think it broke him.

Fetterman voted for Biden's agenda over 90% of the time. Tester was only at about 71%. Dems could do worse.

Instead we elected them to the highest roles of government, over the perfectly acceptable black woman.

She was offering growth, stability and empathy. We chose chaos, destruction and nihilism. I'll never understand it.

Why would a billionaire want a functioning paper? Functioning papers cover shit like “did you know this billionaire makes his workers pee into bottles instead of taking a break” and “you pay way more tax than a guy with ten yachts”

Odd that they didn't seek out cops that were fine with Mamdani. Must have been an oversight.

There are over a million gay people in Texas. Does he really think their lives, stories and histories should receive zero representation in the entire statewide curriculum?
