Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Looks like a GREAT peace plan. Give us everything we ever wanted, on our terms, and even more. If not we will just wipe you off the map while our allies watch and then come in to grab a share. Fucking whatever. NOBEL PRIZE!!! 🤦‍♂️

The thing I don't entirely understand about the constant looming presence of fictional armed left-wing militants in the right-wing imagination is: where are they imagining these people are?

Hanging out at the gun ranges of Cambridge, MA and Berkeley, CA?

Engraving bullets in the faculty lounge?

Here's the video Trump just posted to Truth Social, with the claim that 11 people aboard the boat were killed.

There is zero evidence of self-defense here. Looks like a massacre of civilians at sea.

Even if they had drugs aboard, that's not a capital offense.

Not sure if anyone follows me here but if you do I would like to announce that a band I’m in will be opening for MEN WITHOUT HATS tonight!

Yeah crazy huh? Haven’t been on stage in 9 years but not too worried about it.
This 80s kid couldn’t be more excited!
