Have all other factors been controlled for? Assuming it’s a statistically real decrease with all other factors controlled for, what was the opportunity cost for deploying guardsmen as opposed to addressing the three major factors for violent crime: poverty, relatives in the cj system, and addiction?

Exactly. The three factors with the largest correlation to crime—across the body of criminology research—are poverty, family in the criminal justice system, and substance abuse. Cops or lack of cops don’t rate.

We need a gender-neutral pejorative for pussy that carries the same withering disrespect and condemnation of the original in that context.

Justice for her will only happen if we turn out and vote D in heavy numbers in 2026 and 2028. And if progressives need to fall in love, then they need to turn out in the primaries too

They couldn’t have fucked that kid up more for life than if he were named Bubba and Trump was trolling for ass in the room.

What are the economic inputs into turkey production and distribution? Feed, fertilizer, oil, gas, vehicles, parts? Others?

Isn’t she aware that there’s a Helium shortage?

Yup. Basket of deplorables wasn’t an error, just a gross underestimate

They’ll say anything to avoid criticizing Trump or admitting to his depravity. Too much of their identity is invested in their belief in him. For him to be wrong, to be criminal, to be disgusting, means that they got fooled, and they can’t have that. It’s why owning the libs is so important to them.

Yup, see climate science and the bothsidesism that arose out of treating the subject like the non-scientists were the same as climatologists

Of all the moronic things done by our Idiot in Chief, going after the guy who put him in office was the most flagrantly absurd

Russell Vought should be near the top of this list

My dad, a brilliant engineer, watched his mother go through it, and now he’s in the early stages of losing his own cognition, but can’t see a neurologist until April. People always tell me we can’t have Canadian health care because the delays are unreasonable… meanwhile FTL1 blockers wait

It’s funny watching some wingnuts act like he’ll be the dominating heir apparent to Trump’s weird charisma and it’s absurd hold over MAGA. Vance can’t motivate a bowel movement, let alone a political movement of enraged morons.

You’ve got good reason. The thing is, the comic writer behind the account has actually had a decades-long history of biting commentary—pre-social media—it just sucks to see them steal when they don’t have to.

Trump met Obama years ago, and still can’t stop thinking about him
