Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, just introduced a bill to ban Americans from holding dual citizenship. The bill says that to “preserve the integrity of national citizenship, allegiance to the United States must be undivided.” It’s called the Exclusive Citizenship Act.

Admiral Bradley is going to serve Pete Hegseth’s prison sentence. This is what cooperating with fascists gets you.
Reporter: Admiral Bradley was the one who gave that order for a second strike? 

Leavitt: And he was well within his authority to do so.

If Nigel Farage wanted to investigate Russian infiltration into Reform, he’d have done it already.

It’s time the Prime Minister launched a national investigation.

If Democrats win the 2028 presidency they aren’t going to stay popular by coasting on centrist pleasantries. The economy will be bad, the media will be hostile, and the only way for them to stay popular during it will be to work much more cooperatively with activists than Biden did.

Like Riley Gains tying for fifth, this is a situation where a cis woman was graded based on the merits of their work but because a trans person was involved it is unfair that they didn’t win.

2016: at least they’re dumb so nothing will happen

2025: everything is made worse by how dumb they are, but at least them being dumb will put a time limit on their power?
The fact that "hypnosis" has become one of the concepts regularly banned on adult websites makes me feel fully insane. We are truly living in the nightmare return of every Christian conservative moral panic we ever laughed at.
Also these TOS aren't any more creator friendly for any non-vanilla creators

Just to give you guys an idea of how massive Aftyn Behn’s race being close is:

Tennessee’s 7th district (TN-07) was the 20th reddest district of 2024 (59.5% R) IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY. If Democrats were to win it and every district bluer than it you’d be looking at a 416-19 House majority.

I don’t think currency has ever been more detached from actual value than it is right now. At some point local communities should just print their own and build their own microeconomies to starve out the capitalists.

I regret every joke I’ve made about how our elected officials were so old they didn’t know how to use a computer. I would give anything for another administration that doesn’t know how to use a computer

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

This is the heart of our campaign. Trans people are not alone. Women of every age, race, faith, class, sexuality and background are joining together to show love and solidarity.

Let’s make sure that message is heard loud and clear.

I've written a short comment regarding this new MIT study that is being passed around and why it is horseshit. "11.7% of US workforce is being replaced by AI" my ass. Thought that might be of interest. Also - thanks for all your work, you are one of the best resources out there.

This is a huge part of why so many people think we're in the middle of a widespread "anti-woke backlash": Small movements opposed to social progress are collected into trend stories by conservative media. Far larger movements that want more diversity are ignored or cast as threats.
