Rolling Stone: clearly documents a 30+ year long con job. A rural county's own leadership lined their pockets by helping ag interests destroy the water supply.

Everyone who read the article apparently??: Amazon data centers did this in 2011

Now that all the chickens are coming home to roost & lawsuits are starting to fly, the ag players are *blaming* Amazon.

In the hopes that Amazon will have to pay out for those lawsuits instead of them.

And they can keep on doing what they've always been doing!

The thing about all the anti-trans sports panic: people argue this stuff while talking about elite level sports, but because there aren't actually a ton of superhuman trans women blowing away the competition, the people actually affected end up being those who play sports for fun/socialization

These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

The air campaign over Yemen wasn’t a failure of execution; it was a failure of strategy. Biden and Trump both bet on airpower to coerce the Houthis, despite decades of evidence that it can’t force political change. Tactical success, strategic futility. My latest⬇️

Wonderful to see pedocon theory getting mainstreamed a little

Here's a great treatment from @sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com: www.liberalcurrents.com/we-need-to-t...
Rep. Ilhan Omar: "I hope he gets the help he needs. It sounds like he's trying to deflect from the failures that he's had as president ... he's fought to be the head of the pedophile protection party."

“If you believe the MAGA postliberal project is real, then liberalism must understand MAGA is not a reaction to economic consequences or “elite failures,” but an affirmative preference for illiberalism.

Liberalism must stop apologizing. Stop excusing. And fight.”

Except for the fact that the numbers involved are smaller, this is exactly the same as Russians who claim not to support the war complaining that Ukraine is fighting back.

He's actually correct to say that economic status matters quite a bit for men's sexual and romantic prospects, and that ties into mental well being, whether or not either should be teue. But reducing all of that to "pay for stuff so you get laid" makes the insight largely pointless.

First of all, donate to @liberalcurrents.com.

Second, has anyone heard of the Center for New Liberalism? I like to think of them as the neoliberal Turning Point USA. Wondering what folks have heard about them.
This is vitally important. As I've written, the left has a serious pipeline problem (www.vox.com/on-the-right...) and Liberal Currents is exactly the kind of place that could help solve it. Give them the money they need!

“Progslop” is the assertion southern white people would vote for socialists if they heard their message about universal healthcare.

“Modslop” is the assertion Dems could win southern white people if they spent their whole campaigns reacting to Republican talking points.

TBF: personally, I support most progressive policies. I am often accused of being a “dirty centrist”, however, due to my tendency to point out the necessity of compromise to get new policy enacted into law.

If we want progressive policies enacted into law, we’re going to have to figure out…
"there must be an answer as to what the party is for" yes. right now every braindead centrist in the world is putting together their little platform to define the future of the democrats. we want a genuine alternative. help us make the Reconstruction Papers happen
