Schiff: "The president is entitled to his own views about me or anybody else. He is not entitled, however, to use the DOJ to go after his political opponents. The day we say that's ok and the day we confirm an AG who says that's ok is the day the rule of law becomes merely an unenforceable idea."

Ashley Moody is corrupt, DeSantis is corrupt, James Uthmeier is corrupt. FL GOP yell "woke, DEI, don't say gay" while stealing medical funds to pay for illicit campaigns against ballot measures, and trade Senate seats to make it happen. That's Florida GOP, y'all

Just the fact that media calls it a “Weaponization Fund” shows utter failure to meet the moment. It’s like when you call Trump’s budget a “Big Beautiful Bill.” They get you to launder regime propaganda by creating a title that is a false characterization, which gets published.

It's absolutely insane we've somehow let the Covid recriminations debate become like "why didn't we reopen in person schools before there was a vaccine" and not "why did none of the trump guys go to jail for stealing PPE from New York hospitals in March 2020"

It’s important to understand that when 1.2 million Americans are dying from a disease, any government action is excessive and tyrannical, but if a dozen trans women want to play soccer no government action can go far enough

You were an early supporter of Platner, choosing to ignore the red flags and concerns. You fully campaigned with him. What issues are you ignoring now? For me, any credibility your endorsement may have had is simply gone.

Perimeters, not parameters. An excursion, not an incursion. Six genders, not cisgender. Insane asylums, not asylum. Transgender mice, not transgenic mice. The IQ of a potato.

This country has arrived at the point where a prominent bank can file court documents attesting to the fact that they stopped providing services to the current President of the United States because there was evidence he was involved in money laundering and it barely breaks into the news cycle.

Its so damn wild that primary voting has started and again someone is meddling by hacking water supply and this like that time when Florida was meddled with and it disappeared from the news. Nobody asked more questions after DeSantis said he couldn't talk about it.

I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses

I lost my job, my kids have measles, my electric bill has doubled, and I have explosive diarrhea from a parasite the CDC no longer monitors. But at least now Black kids won't be getting free breakfasts from Head Start anymore.

The GOP is desperately trying to rewrite history, but just a reminder that Donald Trump was president during the lockdowns, and he awarded Fauci a presidential commendation for his work on COVID. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It's horseshoe theory again: mutual-aid-as-policy is just the left's version of the right's "I'm not saying people don't need help, but that's the church and private charity's role, not the government's."

"Oh yeah? You have a vast network of programs designed to try and maximize the number of people who have enough food to eat in a country of over 300 million? That's neoliberal nonsense that pales in comparison to me, personally, handing one bag of groceries to one person. That's Direct Action, baby"

It’s a Fair Question….. “Why is it that it takes 900 years and 5000 impact studies to build high speed rail but a 5 minute city council meeting is all it takes to approve a massive data center?”
