That's not because he wasn't political, it's because you have a child's understanding of politics and it's never evolved.

No comment.

Calling it now: there will be just enough votes from Dems (or no shows) to pass it. If you still fall for this charade of performative no votes that don’t change the outcome, you’re a clown

In case you’re distracted by the shiny buildings in Kushner’s vision for Gaza, their plan is keep Palestinians in hyper-surveilled prison camps where they’ll eventually provide cheap labor for the resorts/high rises they won’t be allowed to live in, all built atop a mass grave.

Aaron Swartz died for doing the exact same thing except he was sharing with actual fellow humans, this is fucked

This woman shows up every election cycle with the same conservative politics. Here she is quoted in FiveThirtyEight in 2016 saying she can’t decide between Christie, Santorum, Cruz, or Jeb Bush.

ICE did not target "a" child--according to school officials, they targeted four children

Once again, Republicans are pushing DEI for conservatives. Incredible.

I broke down the ICE “reforms” being proposed by Dem leadership. tl;dr: They totally avoid touching ICE’s funding, in key ways actually increase ICE funding and instead focus on meaningless busywork like “body cams” and “more training”.

NYT “news analysis” vertical remains undefeated because it’s a weird uncanny genre where their ostensibly neutral reporters get to write opinion and show how deeply ideological, cynical and/or stupid they are. It’s useful because it largely does my job for me.

amazing how this is just full blown conventional wisdom now (entirely unsourced here, of course) despite the fact that at the peak of "abolish ICE" Dems over-preformed in the 2018 midterms and won the WH in 2020. This narrative requires us to act like we went from 2017 to 2023.

Once you build a massive “deportation” machine, an industry really, it will not stop with one category of immigrants, or immigrants at all. It will self-perpetuate new classes of people to detain, to fill detention beds and meet removal quotas. It will create a meal to feast on.

This Vittorio?

The levels of humiliation these ghouls are subjecting themselves to in order to create the worst possible world imaginable would be kind of impressive if it weren't so appalling

Looks like Elon Musk got a little favor in a recent funding bill, a mandate the FAA block anyone trying to track any info about private jets upon a request of the owner.

Nobody is complaining loudly enough that Wikipedia is sometimes no longer even on the first page of google results. Like what the hell are we doing

The United States will go down in history as the nation that imprisoned more of its own people than anywhere else on Earth but could not summon the courage to put one rich white man in prison, even to save itself as a nation or to preserve its position in the world.

Big weather system coming through. Here's what we know so far.

Mamdani's one of the first Dem pols to integrate what they learned from losing to Trump. Talk every day, talk credit for stuff, be on people's screens telling them about the benefit you're giving them.

No strategy is ever less successful than a nerd saying, “Please don’t make fun of this thing I take very seriously”
