A WHOLE island, you say?
Who also doesn't know anything about that bitcoin guy he pardoned.
Honestly, I hate how funny I find that notion.

in a welcome surprise, “we fucking hate taxes” apparently carrying the day in the tariffs case and it looks like they’re going down

I’m not used to this much good news in a row I don’t know what to do with my hands
Roberts now going at the solicitor general like a cat with a wounded mouse. Keeps telling him that tariffs are taxes on the American people. "Who pays the tariffs??" Says Trump's argument would neutralize separation of powers between the legislative and executive branches. Incredible stuff.

Of course with rest of the country having big wins, Texas passed propositions that children are property of their parents and one just for anti-immigrant scaremongering
Twice in THE SAME ELECTION.

*whispers* you can continue to read me, the pundit who insisted the other pundits were wrong about these conclusions
basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.
One of the classic ratios

The ancient Excel still gets me.

I think Dick Cheney’s death today highlighted this divide.

The Democrats who still say shit like “reach across the aisle” and praise evil people are playing to a political audience that no longer exists.

Mamdani wasn’t cruel to Cuomo in a Trumpism style, but he didn’t concede anything either.
I love that Zohran did not praise Cuomo in his speech. You absolutely do not have to say nice things about bad people. We should normalize that in “polite” politics: Praising bad people is not actually “civility.”

as the parent of a toddler i am just fucking weeping with anxiety this is insane
also the people confronting them are so brave, i appreciate them so much really.
ICE detained a US citizen with a toddler in the backseat. ICE had to be bullied by the crowd to not do their usual MO and drive off with the man and just leave the car in the road. The crowd asked them to let the family come take the baby. Instead they drove off with the child

Just in case you were expecting something wild tonight, this viral screenshot was fake.
This one is frying me, it's so good
so many good pictures out there
Just pay your taxes, Bill. It'll be cheaper than dumping a fortune into super PACs.

We won. A reminder that you are not woke, a soyboy, a leftoid, or whatever these freaks threw at you. You love your country and want what’s best for everyone. Be proud of that.
Seriously, it'll cost you less, Bill.

Farewell sweet Prince
Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

I don't know if it's just me, but I've gotten the sense recently that transphobia a political tool is already played out. Not only is it not a winner, but it really feels like the right overplayed their hand with anti-trans hate and people generally seem sick of it, sick of bulling running on hate.
As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.
