They weren't right about not campaigning in places like Michigan and throwing Queer and Trans people under the bus
Remember in the 08 primaries when hillary mainstreamed birtherism and said white people were the only hard working people
Except how to run a successful campaign I guess
I think this is a great argument, beautifully constructed

Fun thing to think about very briefly: who currently has better lawyers, the United States or Nintendo
The secret to never getting caught with hallucinations in your briefs is to NEVER USE generative AI to write your briefs. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Literally have heard nothing positive about this guy ever, and Maine has another Dem to vote for. Why is Platner even still a thing? Can Mainers just not give up a Nazi?
Imagine being mad that your daughter is a genius
I mean, other than him being the Supreme Pontiff, successor to Saint Peter, and protected by Papal Infallibility when speaking ex cathedra to the entirety of the Church on matters of faith and morals…
That first point is well known and was basis for early Christian criticism of Islam, on the part of writers with enough knowledge of it to not think them some sort of polytheist, as a heresy itself.
Depends on if we’re talking about “Christian” in an theological or essentialist sense or in a historical or sociological sense. Catholics/Lutherans/Orthodox/etc don’t count JWs as Christian the way most Muslims wouldn’t count Druze as Muslim except in the loosest and most expansive sense.
DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."
But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trump’s presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.
Critical support to the treacherous vizier whispering into Paxton’s ear that he can win without Trump.
Mayor Mamdani and a child play with Legos while looking very serious and concentrated. The child is impossibly adorable and wearing tiny blue glasses.
No interruptions, please. We’re building universal child care.
To be fair “there are greater christological schisms between actual christian denominations than between islam and like catholicism” invited that interpretation. The similarities are of course more significant if you count extinct-for-millennia-heresies.
—binding and normative. To most Christians for most of Christianity’s history, the Quran’s Jesus is at best “better than nothing and better than what the Jews say about him, but still wrong on key beliefs” to so close but far from the truth to be outright insulting
Right, but lots of people were promoting competing versions of Christianity from the get-go, early enough that it’s recorded in Acts and St. Paul’s letters. The fact is though that such foundational documents and ongoing practice of the religion have held ecumenical councils from Jerusalem on to be-
If anything, Muhammad occupies a quasi-Christological position being the seal of the prophets, moral paragon for the faithful, and mediator between God and humanity who mentioned in the same breath as God in the profession of faith.
I think this really really oversells the similarities. The Incarnation/Trinity/Crucifixion/Resurrection are all central Christian doctrines that most Christians (barring out there denominations like Mormons/JWs) agree on that Muslims disagree with.

I really don't see how people can still saying we're overreacting with a straight face about a trans genocide when they're COMPILING LISTS. Like they are following the exact same damn playbook 90 years later.
So let me get this straight ...
1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil
Hey this is like the most serious oil guy i know and this is worse than i expected
Canada created more jobs in 2025 (! year of the economic attack!) than the U.S., tho the U.S. job market is 7.5 times bigger.
"Health" generated 41% of the new jobs. "Care" (incl educ) almost 1/2.
Demographics guarantees that this job juggernaut will continue to dominate. Demand>supply everywhere.
Trump gets mad when asked Russia and Iran working together to kill US troops because he wants to talk about college sports instead
