If your response to this is 'what do you mean the 2024 primaries were rigged due to his health' I ask what else it could mean that all fo the serious contenders stayed out while Democrats were hiding Biden's supposedly very serious decline from the public
Democrats this cycle got the double whammy of voting in the primary which was rigged for Biden due to his health, and then seeing the party leadership spike the primary anyway and install their guy. There's no getting around that
Except when they are chosen by Obama, Pelosi, and Clooney in a smoke filled room, then there really aren't primaries at all

Islam was in fact brought to the colonies starting just a few decades after the Mayflower- on slave ships. There were tens of thousands of enslaved West African Muslims in the colonies and the early republic, especially in South Carolina.
(and my faith didn’t come over on the Mayflower either)

This kind of blatant Islamophobia from members of Congress is so normalized that it barely attracts notice. It should not be acceptable to any of us.

It's hilarious that Trump is lazily going through the motions of the National Prayer Breakfast as his cult is planning to erect a literal golden idol of him.

I read this, and I almost regret it. What do you even do with the knowledge that Epstein wanted and was trying to engineer societal breakdown via far right populism bc he thought it would benefit his sex trafficking business?
I read thousands of pages of Epstein files this weekend trying to understand what he wanted out of his meeting with 4chan's Christopher Poole. Here's everything we know about Epstein's plans to dismantle the internet and, eventually, democracy.

If a university student group had celebrated Charlie Kirk being killed, complete with a graphic made from an actual picture of the killing, the whole lot of them would have been expelled before the ink on the digital story was dry.
University of Illinois college republicans advocate for executing protesters as “traitors” with art that takes a disturbing killing and makes it even more extreme.

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise.
President Trump would like the Commanders’ new stadium named after him, though no formal talks have occurred, ESPN reported. Trump will be in attendance at the team’s game on Sunday — the Commanders expect the topic may arise during his visit.
Trump Stadium, home of the Commanders? The president is not opposed.
No formal conversations on naming rights for the Commanders’ new D.C. home have been held.
