This post has been on my mind for a few days now, so I’m going to say something about it. 🧵

it's 2035. the only jobs available are gluing shoes together in the under armor company town or pretending to be an optimus robot. your boss is a chatbot that tells you to kill yourself. rent on your studio apartment is $90000 doge coin. premiere jd vance is screaming at you to be whiter

Not necessarily, barring some Very Bad Stuff I think they have a solid chance to win 26 and 28 (see 06 and 08). Their failure isn't winning power, it's doing something valuable with it

Richard Gizbert: "[Trump] has laid bare the fiction that is international law.. where was the moralising from all those leaders about the importance of international law during the genocide in Gaza.. most of them stayed quiet, set aside their so called Western values until the empire came at them"🎯

I am introducing the Cut It Out And This Time I Really Mean It bill. It provides an additional $57 billion to the murder goons but they will agree to wear business casual Monday through Thursday and if they do any murders they have to put a dollar in this jar.

The parents of Alex Pretti have retained a former federal prosecutor who helped Minnesota's attorney general convict the police officer who kneeled on George Floyd's neck of murder. https://to.pbs.org/3ZA2HfU

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that Trump is "pivoting" and "deescalating" on his ICE raids. The threshold is this: As long as the military occupations and the treatment of US cities as enemy territory continue, there's no pivot. ICE out. 1/

it's a truly staggering measure of this country's profound cowardice that so many people are afraid of this pathetic loser

ken martin is withholding the DNC's 2024 autopsy because it's much easier to let ignorant celebrities blame the left than admit biden shouldn't have run

Get ready for a Democratic Party influencer blitz to convince you that replacing Greg Bovino with Tom Homan is a huge win you should be grateful for.

Meanwhile here’s Tom Homan:

Trump’s stochastic terrorism has had its intended effect.

DHS official: Greg Bovino, you're fired.

Press: Bovino has been fired.

Bovino: Fire me and I roll on Noem and Miller. They ordered me to do it.

WH: He's not fired.

JUDGE: “It concerns me that Attorney General Bondi’s letter cites three things that are the subject of pending litigation before this court,” referring to the District of Minnesota.

"Is the executive trying to achieve a goal through force that it can't achieve through the Courts?"

A major reason I hate the “leopards eating faces” meme is 99% of the time it’s just smug libs making fun of Republican voters with limited political awareness or products of unfortunate environments. This, this shit right here, is what setting the leopards loose actually looks like.

I visited Gaza in 2009, just months after the Cast Lead massacre. What I saw then shocked and changed me — and there are no words for what has been destroyed now.

We need to end this genocide and dismantle Israel’s apartheid system.

My conversation with @smohyeddin.bsky.social.

One thing that media outlets could do here is to stop treating their panels like MMA bouts, and to stop inviting people on who consistently pollute the segments with a barrage of smug lies. Start with Scott Jennings.

Would be super cool if national media could stop flooding the airwaves with terrorists and Nazis spreading lies. Stop treating them like normal guests in a normal time.

If the people who lied yesterday about what happened are on the news today when you knew they would lie again then you’re simply not the news
