The Work. Never. Ends. Humanity is (hopefully!!) stuck here forever, and while we're here we have to help each other. And that means fixing broken systems, then our kids fix it again, then their kids fix it again. Looked at cynically, we're all Sisyphus.

But one must imagine Sisyphus happy.

So, Platner was just on MSNBC. I don’t think he mentioned Trump, & when asked about how he’d beat Susan Collins he said nothing about Susan Collins.

But while railing against the system & the insiders he referred to “the DS,” which made me chuckle.

I actually do kinda want him to hang on now for at minimum the next 78 days because I'm officially invested in it happening during our quarter-millennium anniversary

Listen, if The Event happens during the literal 250th anniversary year of the United States, I may start going to church

I'm not a betting man but I feel like we'd make some money if we bet that he croaks before 2027 at this rate

I recall one account I won't name trying to claim the mantle of level headed thinker by saying back in July "listen we all know Whitmer would be better than Harris but we have to settle for Harris for now, and Whitmer can primary President Harris for the nomination easily in 2028"

It should not be understated how much clever shit like this actually annihilates morale at places like ICE/CBP.

Getting made fun of like this on national television while people laugh at you is.. well, you may call it victory wine, but it ain't.

I love this so much. Funny, sweet, hopeful, and kind of bad-ass.

Listen I've never been one to bash on Dems but I still think this deserves framing the more I look at it

Sometimes nothing brings out the good side of a Democratic politicians more than having a ripe GOP target to read for filth

I liked her quite a bit even though I never bought onto the hype train that she was the "it" candidate the way some people did. And that picture was just career ending

Remember the Big Gretch memes? Remember how a bunch of male election shitposters spent a year or two declaring her the ascension of the winemoms, trying to conceal their condescending snickering the whole time?

Maybe, she could ride that out into retirement if she played her cards right

Turns out all Hochul needed was a Trump white house to rail against

If I were to tell you right after the election last year that in terms of Dem Governors in the coming Trump 2 era, Hochul would distinguish herself and Whitmer would fucking flop, not a soul on earth would have believed me, but here we are.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and DHS need to answer for their unchecked attacks on Chicago residents.

ICE is an out-of-control danger to our peaceful communities.

The images from the Sun-Times today speak for themselves.

An ICE agent throws a tear gas canister at protesters at East 105th Street and South Avenue N in East Side.
