In today's GOP, violence against women is prerequisite, not a disqualifier.

Kind of wild to see takes that winning a close race vs a candidate backed by every major office holder in your state and the party’s national leadership including senior kingmakers like Clyburn is somehow a sign of *weakness*.
This is great news for John McCain

And there are other wins for the left in Michigan: —William Lawrence wins his U.S. House primary. —A DSA-backed candidate is leading a Democratic incumbent for state House. —Abbas Alawieh, co-founder of Uncommitted, leads for state Senate.
one thing that people didn't appreciate enough about mike tomlin is that aaron rodgers kept his dumb mouth shut all season last year but now that tomlin's gone, hoo boy here we go
That was the stated purpose behind the establishment of the branch of government in which you serve but go off king

an opposing team needs to add "FAUCI!" to their cadence just to see if Aaron Rodgers loses his shit
Everywhere should be a hostile place for Republicans. They should not be able to find a friend anywhere. They should lose all their professional and familial relationships. They should be blocked from signing up to social media platforms, clubs, and yard sales. They should be ejected from fairs.
You wouldn't be getting yelled at by a sentient garbage disposal if you weren't a both-sidesing jackass when it mattered most
We have diarrhea lettuce, measles, and screwworm because the media told you Biden had Parkinsons and made eggs too expensive. And then we found out it was a whole cartel move by the egg producers. Trump and RFK never pretended to be anything other than exactly what they are. This is your fault Dana
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoBASH: How do you prepare for next pandemic? RFK Jr: We did almost everything wrong B: But what about now? K: We need to protect our rights B: ? K: During covid we dismantled our rights B: But I'm asking what *to* do K: You were part of the problem B: You want to sit here and attack me?
In earlier days lazy-minded people had the same problem, which is that they wanted credit for work but they didn’t want to actually do the work. If they were popular or strong, they could bully a studious kid into doing their homework. Very common scenario. Now tech has given them an easier solve.
Don’t let the door hitcha where the good lord spitcha! Actually…

God these high powered elite lawyers are such easy marks
a lot of what the right does nowadays is create an emotional support system for bigots. bigotry will offend and alienate people in your life, so the right looks provides a counterweight that lavishes you with praise.
The president took on a vanity project, gave no-bid contracts to contractors who screwed it up, made up a story about vandals to cover it up, and then fomented a felony prosecution against an innocent scapegoat. You could impeach for anything he's done but "This asshole is out of control" is a layup
Roy Edroso@edroso.bsky.social · 4d agoWhen you slow down and think about it you realize it's ten times worse than it seems. Sure it's farcical, but it's also a brutal legal attack on a man they knew to be innocent, done to distract from their own thievery and incompetence and as a flex to terrify anyone who might make them look bad.
Basically we're always at this part of the movie.
A.R. Moxon@juliusgoat.bsky.social · 6d agocan't get over how well the free market regulates itself
we should charge the C-suite with fraud and theft if they take a tax credit meant to keep people employed and then cut staff anyway.
Paula Wirth@paulawirth.bsky.social · last wk.Pixar receives a $26.2 Million Tax credit to keep film jobs in CA, and immediately lays off 10% of its work force, after making over a billion from Toy Story 5, the highest-grossing film of 2026.
It was, in accelerated fashion, a parallel to how living through climate change is making Republicans far worse on emissions & pollution.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 7d agoThe Fauci hearing perfectly illustrated how living through a once in a century pandemic somehow made Republicans far worse on public health. God forbid we face anything like covid again during Trump 2.0. There will be no Dr Fauci around to try to talk sense to Trump.
