The guy knows how things play on TV. It's why being a reality tv host was his most successful venture prior to the presidency.

good for you @pbump.com. i know it wasn’t your intention but this was an act of bravery and profound decency. cable news is relentlessly dehumanizing and soul-corroding; we need as many examples as we can to remind ourselves that we are still human beings.

It does feel so quaint that “many fine people on both sides” was a huge controversy in the first term. Pretty clear 2025 Trump would just praise the Neo-Nazis and call the other demonstrators terrorist scum and it would largely be yawned at

Walz: "I couldn't help but think, and it scares me a bit -- 'The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most important directive.' It certainly feels like that in this moment."

Nicholas Cage is such a terrible actor but he has some bangers you can't help but watch over and over again.

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.
The shooting is shocking enough but the government's response is off the charts when you consider that this incident is forensically documented on video.

Republicans in Congress are watching all of this and are doing absolutely nothing about it. Have they no shame?

this has been said many times before, and i forget who first coined it and my apologies for that, but: the last time liberals and democrats in america were existentially threatened by fascism, it took them about 5 years to invent a way to unleash an iota of the destructive power of the fucking sun.

This. Giving in to your inner cynic is how the bad guys win.

The woman killed by ICE was Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year old who was the mother of a 4-year old child whose father already died a few years ago.

DHS should go away. This should be a real goal, to unwind this un-American beast created by the War on Terror. Send the agencies under its umbrella back to their historic homes. Maybe save TSA and send it to DOT. But nuke the rest of it.

ICE doesn’t just need to be abolished. It’s leadership and it’s rank and file need to be held accountable for crimes against humanity and wonton murder

This is a fun flick! It's definitely flawed but not enough to warrant the biblical fucking hissy fit that people threw about it back in the day.
Now watching: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

I remember (long ago) being told set the conditions for your subordinates’ success. Taught me to think systemically. Universal suffrages good, but needs to go hand-in-hand w/funded public education, data verification, anti-fake news initiatives (Finland), anti-trust enforcement, etc.
