I hope someday we defeat fascism and in the far future, No Kings Day is celebrated as a federal holiday, and little children leave out dance mixtapes and cookies for the Resistance Frog, who leaves pocket Constitutions in their shoes.

Right, the answer to the question “can the president issue a valid pardon for the assassins he sent to successfully kill the Congress that was impeaching him” has to be no or the underlying structure of the Constitution makes no sense
i think that we should charge even people who have been pardoned, because there is no conceivable way the founders intended the pardon power to permit the executive to order people to commit crimes and then pardon them for them

Offering the survivors of a missile strike no quarter and then ordering a second strike to finish them off puts Hegseth in deep, deep water. He gave an illegal order. This is either murder or a war crime. It doesn't matter what your title is, Secretary of Defense, or Fox Talk Show Host. It's murder.

The legal, media, and academic institutions capitulating to an authoritarian ordering payments for favorable treatment are damning themselves to irrelevance. They are destroying their institutions. They will be — and should be — shunned for failing in their most basic purposes for existing.

If there ever were any real Venezuelan drug boats, they would have stopped taking that route after the attacks began. The only people who would still be there at this point are people who need to go there to get fish because they are fishermen.

Wait, so he plans to pardon the Honduran President for drug trafficking, but he’s blowing up boats at sea because he thinks they’re trafficking drugs?

I continue to be mystified by Americans who give so little a shit about…well…everything, that they don’t bother to vote.

Like….HOW does one function day to day and actually not care about ANYTHING happening in this world country.

People are forgetting the lessons of WWII. Out here like "No, if people are really BAD people, then you don't need to use due process" and like "No, if a country is really BAD, you don't need to respect its sovereignty, you can just forcibly abolish it against its people's will."

I really hate how my side is now just as prone to conspiracy theories as the right wing. I've already seen people suggesting the National Guard shooting was fake, the two victims are plants who faked injury and death. Going "Oh, both the victims just joined this unit and nobody knows them? Fake!"
November 28, 2025 at 2:03 PM
On some level, Ear Truthers have to know that their conspiracy theory isn't true, because they aren't demanding the investigations that they would be demanding if they really thought it was true. They're not calling for the Butler ER doctor to testify, or for arrests of the complicit USSS agents.

I've never understood the people who were like "No, we don't want to kick Trump out of power, JD Vance would be worse!" He very obviously can't do the thing Trump does. He can't rile up the base. Nobody would attack the Capitol Building for him.
No one likes him.

He lacks charm, grace, intellect, integrity, class, humor, and anything anyone wants to be with.

Kick this tit to the curb with his billionaire buddies.

Everyone in politics, everyone in media knows what’s happening here: the White House is controlled by a repellant white supremacist who waits with bated breath for any opportunity to run nonwhite people out of America. They know who it is, what he’s doing. But they won’t SAY it.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

I feel certain Miller absolutely recognizes that. He thinks about those people, and what he feels is a pang of jealousy at how freely they got to hurt others. He wants to hurt others the same way, so he gets that little electric surge of pleasure. It’s his turn
This is almost word for word what xenophobes in the 1930s and 1940s said about Miller's Jewish ancestors and relatives. He's so hateful he couldn't possibly recognize that of course.

Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean

TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting

Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?
