He can’t even pretend it’s a TOS violation and ban her without it being a massive self-own

There’s absolutely no way he can hit back at her in any way because he’s incapable of winning a flame war and he has no way to threaten her outside it

Martha? I missed that movie

If Jane Coaston is unimpeachably on the correct side of an exchange the person on the other side has entirely lost the thread

That second picture is a few hundred feet from the house where I grew up
November 10, 2025 at 11:09 PM
But here are some pictures of the neighborhood where I grew up in DC. If this counts as “no trees or grass” then you are not living in observable reality
November 10, 2025 at 11:07 PM
Even leaving that aside, “parks don’t count as trees and grass” is…certainly a take one could have
November 10, 2025 at 11:04 PM
So first of all, I can tell you this does not accurately describe New York City. Like, large swaths of Manhattan maybe. That’s not what the other boroughs look like. Even Staten Island has no shortage of greenery. I’ve never been to Miami but it’s also not what Philly looks like outside downtown

If you believe “only the deep forest counts as trees and grass and nature woven into the fabric of the city is the same as cold sterile stone” then you are living in a different reality than the rest of us

Tbf he had actual political experience and he wasn’t saying it onstage. I would absolutely say it on live tv

Chris Van Hollen is mostly a boilerplate liberal and yet I haven’t seen a single leftist criticism of him because it’s pretty fucking clear which side he’s on

As a Pittsburgh Oaf, you have my full support
November 10, 2025 at 11:29 AM
The mistake we made was picking an oaf from outer Pittsburgh, we need a Philadelphia Oaf

I have had this thought so many fucking times despite the fact I’d be the worst political candidate ever, just saying “fuck this guy” constantly about my opponent
November 10, 2025 at 11:19 AM
The options in 2020 were him or Joe fucking Kennedy, the idea it was the wrong call in 2020 is just ahistorical nonsense
November 10, 2025 at 11:15 AM
Sure but I also don’t think “silence” describes markey here
November 10, 2025 at 4:27 AM
Yeah like the Trump regime is reliably predictable in that they’re just going to do the most evil possible thing at all times for its own sake. But that’s not quite the case with senate dems! Different problems call for different tactics
November 10, 2025 at 3:27 AM
I think every Dem that’s shown even a hint of squishiness needs to be primaried with the full force of whatever the left can muster. But I also think we don’t need to win more than a few of those. Most of these people other than the calcified ancients can be terrified into doing their jobs
November 10, 2025 at 3:25 AM
In the case of SCOTUS, it’s somewhat of a moot argument because the answer is court reform regardless…but what to do about the Dems presents a different question
November 10, 2025 at 3:25 AM
SCOTUS is a good example. It seems pretty clear to me that what motivates, say, ACB is very different from what motivates Alito. They often overlap but the tariffs case seemed to make pretty clear that it’s not 1:1.
November 10, 2025 at 3:24 AM
There’s this pervasive and pernicious idea that every type of evil we’re seeing—the Trump regime, SCOTUS, the Dem senate caucus, etc—are all the same, and I think that’s wildly counterproductive. Different things motivate different groups here and the best way to fight your enemy is to understand it
