i just found out my cousin was shot and killed by law enforcement three years ago and nobody in my family told me. i’m not condoning the why—he did a horrible thing—but i’m sad nonetheless and am in disbelief nobody me.

“lord. i pray for my clock. i pray for everybody’s clock! watches too. that the tellers of time may find a way to cleanse their spirits of this moment in history, dear lord. allow those clocks and watches and all things that measure time to find a way to heal themselves from this awful time.”

JD Vance: "What could I possibly say about Jon Husted that Donald J Trump has not already said? Don't worry, I'm not gonna talk about Jon Husted's ass."

“what if for example he had assaulted and abused a couch? would that uhhh anonymously sourced article require uhhh facts that need to come out and like is there anything actually wrong with abusing and assaulting a couch uhhh i mean a woman?” — JD Vance i hate these ppl so much.

JD Vance reacts to Vivek Ramaswamy's ad using Amy Acton's abusive and estranged mother: 'Whether the ad was appropriate or not is not my concern... I have to admit that I'm a little bit disgusted when I see Republicans across the country who are whining about that advertisement'

they excused a cop shooting into a Black woman’s car, killing her young child, over an allegedly stolen package of diapers that the Black woman had actually paid for. same ppl who force women to come to full term even if she was raped or the fetus is not healthy bc “pro-life”. think about that.

Of course, the hilarity here is that by attempting to squelch the grand jury report & keep it secret, Uthmeier & Co. have turned it into a MUCH bigger story, and one that isn't likely to end anytime before the election. Oopsie!

this is actually brilliant from Zelenskyy. he knows putin won’t accept such a construct. and thus can IMMEDIATELY blame russia for further aggression. all the while being able to continue to take back Crimea et al. this lays the blame for further hostility squarely a putin’s feet.

[Q]: Would you accept a peace deal that freezes everything the way it is right now, where you still keep 75% or more of your country? [President Zelenskyy]: Yes, right now we have to freeze and I think this is a real way to end this war.

In August, Trump announced the “BIGGEST OIL DEAL IN WORLD HISTORY!” But is it? The text of the accord — which grants the U.S. sweeping access to Venezuela’s oil reserves — has been one of DC’s most sought-after secrets. ProPublica got to see a copy. 🧵
