The overriding moral deficiency of this country is that tens of millions of people do not believe, even in the most diffused and abstract way, that an injury to one is an injury to all.

It's unbelievable how corrupt the Supreme Court is. It's insane that we are letting them get away with it. They are taking away all of our rights.

Y'know, federalism!
I don’t know, I still randomly trip out over the fact that the President told states to specifically gerrymander for him. And they did.

We will never, ever restore a constitutional democracy unless we burn SCOTUS to the ground. First day Dems have the trifecta, it’s gotta be end filibuster, approve a slate of 12+ additional judges — no hearings, just vote — and then 3) start building a New Republic. Otherwise what’s the damn point?

If you see John Roberts in person, be sure to tell him he’s a worse Chief Justice than Roger Taney (pronounced “tawny”). That’s a nerd burn that will hit him where it counts.

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years.
Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class.
The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

I need recommendations for an über-woke children's book. Like, a nonbinary elephant teaches an African American girl about gender confirmation surgery or something.

Can someone explain to me why they think an administration that’s been carrying out war crimes for a year straight with impunity would impeach someone when they have all houses of power

I don't think this country will EVER dig itself out of this hole.
Cannot say this enough: Most of the people in charge in the US right now are bottom of the barrel dipshits with very low competency, utterly deluded worldviews, no sense of community, and no moral or ethical compass.

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released.
“And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

i strongly, strongly believe that good writing is downstream of clear thinking and a strong understanding of the subject matter at hand. without fail, tortured writing comes from writers who don’t know and can’t think clearly about anything.
Oh man! This paragraph is brutal. The best thing about this review is it's not trying to be mean. It's just listing how bad the writing is.

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.
She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

We wouldn't know results from California in time for the elected candidates to take office.
I do not support election results being “called” before all the votes are counted.

The worst part about the boat strikes - regardless of who ordered what and besides the ultimate tragedy of lives lost - is they’re forever a stain on the professionalism and dignity of the United States military.
They’re an insult to every American who ever sacrificed to do the right thing.

Jacob Frey stands for nothing and no one other than himself and his filthy-rich donors.
Jacob Frey: "We are here to respond to credible reports relaying that there are as many as 100 federal agents that will be deployed to the Twin Cities with a specific focus on targeting our Somali community. To our Somali community -- we love you and we stand with you. That commitment is rock solid"

I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.
