Jeffries just refused calls to abolish ICE and reject AIPAC. Schumer last week said he'll ensure Israel gets as much money as they want and supports regime change in Venezuela.

It's so unfair that Dem leaders are out of step with their base when GOP leaders don't have a SINGLE left wing position.

(Sorry this is mean) people who edit their youtube comments to say "omg thanks for 100 likes!" must have never accomolished anything meaningful in their lives

Must feel so embarassing to be a Republican in 2026. Your party keeps getting btfo in deep red districts, Trump & Vance are booed everywhere they go, and your side's halftime show could only pull Kid Rock for a half assed performance that nobody watched cause normal ppl arent triggered by Bad Bunny

RIP charlie kirk, you would have loved pretending to be anti-war while cheering on a regime change war for oil in venezuela

If you ever hear someone say "Israel isnt starving Gaza, they've let in [big number] of trucks / served [big number] of meals to Palestinians," just google how many daily trucks/meals are needed to feed the entire population and you'll quickly find those big sounding numbers are actually quite small

I've noticed that centrist liberals have started using the term "purity test" the same way the right has been using "woke"

They both just slap that loaded language label on any critique from the left that they dont like and act like it's valid rebuttal instead of actually arguing against the point.

According to the right, the Republican Party doesn't own all the wars, torture, NSA spying and recessions caused by the Neocons just 1 Republican president ago, but the Democratic Party does own slavery because of how the party was 200 years ago. Got it.

I always liked Man of Steel, it was a neat take on how earth would realistically react to Krypyonians with phenomenal action scenes. But Superman 2025 was so fantastic and faithful that it makes Man of Steel look like a joke tbh

I already believed Trump was in the Epstein files but this confirmed it beyond doubt. He's planting the seeds to call it "fake news" when it comes out and exposes him
Trump *really* doesn’t want to talk about Epstein

Reminiscing on how in the 2016/20 primary debates they'd constantly ask Bernie "how are you gonna pay for universal healthcare?" and "what if people like their insurance?" but never ask the private healthcare supporters "what about all the people who will still be uninsured and die under your plan?"

Genuinely shocked at how much blanant racism has been hurled at Zohran because of his muslim background. I see a lot of bigotry online but it's usually way more coded than just "this guy is muslim so he must support 9/11 and oppressing women". And a lot of it is coming from liberal Cuomo fans too.

Anybody who pays money to see the Minecraft movie forfeits their right to ever complain again about Hollywood producing unoriginal, mediocre movies.

MAGA 2 weeks ago: "you lefties celebrating the Tesla stock going down are heartless! Don't you know people's jobs and retirement are impacted?"

MAGA today: "stock market shtock shmarket. Who cares? The decreases aren't even that big bro."

I can't believe people are still pulling the "I'm not anti-vax, I'm just asking questions" card. It's 2025. It's been 4 years since the covid vax came out. There is no excuse. Any question you could have has been answered by now. You're just refusing to accept those answers.

So according to the right, we're overreacting by being concerned about Trump calling himself a King and tweeting that he's above the law while ignoring court orders, but Biden giving a speech in front of dark red lights a last year was proof he's a dictator. Got it.

Stepped into Trump world today (opened Facebook) and found out that their defense for when Trump announces a plan they don't like is to say he's not actually going to do it 🤦
