Gonna go out on a limb here and say racist cranks who write for extremist white nationalist websites like VDARE should not, in fact, be confirmed to top roles in the Department of Justice.

SCHIFF: You told my staff you stood by your article in white nationalist website VDARE where you wrote, 'Muslim immigrants & their kids seem prone to terrorism' C: I wrote that article in support of Trump's travel ban S: Do you stand by it? C: I stand by that article S: That's all I need to know

They can't. They literally can't do so. Reading is a skill that is no longer mastered in America. 50% of our population can't even read at the 6th-grade level, and 80% don't understand college-level literature. MAGA did not emerge from a vacuum.

The biggest failure in American history will never accept that he's anything less than Jesus. An A+ on the economy? Wrap that line in lights and hang it around the neck of every Republican running for office this fall. Let them all drown in the electoral depths of his self-serving delusion.

There was a CG memo in 2003 requesting a review related to this... as far as I know, nothing happened with it at that time. The CG could have and should have done something sooner. It's disgraceful that it took this long to figure it out. Link to PDF with more info. www.facebook.com/groups/55933...

Better late than never, sorry about that! Yesterday was the 236th birthday of the USCG. Hope all the other Coasties out there had great unit celebrations! Happy CG Day!

I’m more of a center left dem and CONGRATS MR. EL SAYED all the same. Establishment Dems if you’re upset about this, do something about it (fight, message and some rizz) or shut the fuck up and go away. I will HAPPILY vote DSA against my politics if they win. 🤷‍♂️ Winning is ALL that matters.

If Michigan is electing progressives, then I think @schumer.senate.gov needs to accept that this is what voters want. And not capitulation to deadbeat donors.

Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.

By the time we're done, you are not gonna have safe quarter from people holding you accountable to what you've done for them here in Michigan. We will send you back to Florida"

This is unacceptable. These folks should sue. And if he still has his medical license, it should be yanked.

This is why this is not just about Max Miller. It’s about “devout Christian” House Republican leadership who is standing with this guy because they crave power above all else. It’s the culture of MAGA and it comes straight from Trump. Vote them out.

This is the reality inside ICE detention centers. Children are being forced into jail-like conditions while this Administration strips away their basic human rights. We cannot allow this stand. We must hold this inhumane Administration accountable!

Biden was replenishing our stockpiles with US manufacturers using US union steel. Trump has sent tens of thousands of those jobs overseas and has crippled our supply chain with tariffs and none of our allies want to help us. Maybe we can buy our arms back from Saudi Arabia.

In case you’re wondering who’s really “begging for a deal”

When you hear it said (and you will hear it said) that the two people in Michigan who have died of cyclospora both had “underlying conditions,” it is important to remember that having “underlying conditions” is just part of being human.

You shouldn’t listen to the people who tell you not to vote. Regardless if it’s a primary or general election.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.

They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

My friend had a restraining order and last December, a few days after Christmas, her ex-H drove his truck into the front of her house, with jugs of gasoline strapped to the front of the truck. Then, inside the house, he lit her on fire and killer her. That’s how well restraining orders work.

And we’re on to victim blaming. Anyone want to tell him about how well restraining orders work (when they’re even given) for domestic abuse victims?

Miles Standoffish@wolfpack89.bsky.social · yesterday

The law was changed many years ago to allow officers to testify against an abuser even when the victim refused to. This led to many more convictions. As for the abuser returning home? That is up to the victim. They could leave or get a restraining order. Unfortunately, many do not.

The only way to defeat the powers that have co-opted our institutions without destroying everything is to build parallel institutions

Do you have opinion about Bluesky CEO's comments that Bluesky is liberal bubble and his decision to attract- who? The only political audience actually missing : white supremacists, far right-wing, fascists? Who does he believe is missing? He should tell us so we have time to migrate elsewhere.

Pierre Polyester@canadian-critic.bsky.social · yesterday

There has been a vibe change here on Bluesky after my last contact with moderation services. They want to move away from the liberal community that has well established itself here. Its the only reason i am here. I fear a downward spiral into a toxic environment like Twitter might be the outcome.
