it's basically impossible to argue with this, they have won significant policy concessions, and there's no reason to think they'll stop pushing now that Labour have opened the door for them
They must be proud with this endorsement, they worked hard for it.

In big cities, no one gives a fuck about you (laudatory)
there's a tendency in parts of the left to believe that 'community' is the answer to everything but communities are often horrendous!
did not realize that prisonculture's "abolitionism" consists of believing that lynchings would be better if they were conducted at lilith fair

Larry Summers (World Bank/Clinton admin/Harvard president/Obama admin) yukking it up with Jeffrey Epstein about women being dumb and society coming down too hard on perverts makes me wonder how all women are not constantly Becoming The Joker

👇 the only thing keeping me from being utterly consumed by thirst for vengeance is my boundless compassion for the entire human race
With genuine shame, recent years in politics have given me my first taste for what it is to have moralised contempt for my opponents. Not hatred, not fear; contempt. There's some core element of the right wing coalition at the moment which seems to me best described as a revolt of the loser men...

Vance and co. like to insist it’s not “regime change” because there’s no plan to shore up a successor government — the aim is to leave a vacuum that we periodically bomb into submission
“The new authority would allow the C.I.A. to carry out lethal operations in Venezuela…The agency would be able to take covert action against Mr. Maduro or his government either unilaterally or in conjunction with a larger military operation.”
Regime change is back.

It's pretty clear that Vance either is a neo-Nazi himself or strongly sympathises with neo-Nazi ideology.
Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."
He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.

It's always striking how readily Trump can change course if he's exposed to other voices. Perhaps the most tragic irony of the Trump era is that Trumpism would not be half as dangerous without Trump, yet Trump would not be half as dangerous if he weren't surrounded by Trumpists
After having miserably failed in North Korea, DEVGRU managed to successfully recover the “Trump piss tape” from Moscow.
