If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job

Trump did not announce a U.S. policy then walk it back. That is not what happened, and media presenting it that way does a disservice.

Trump said words he thought might appeal to his audience in the moment, with no connection to actual policy, then did that again with a different question/asker.

Trump *is* doing debt cancellation.

It's just not your student or medical debts.

In his second term alone, Trump has already canceled $1.5 billion of criminal debt — payments fraudsters owe the federal government and victims.

They don't mind debt cancellation—for themselves.

Dear media,
When you ask Mike Johnson about Andy Ogles' hateful tweet against Muslims and Johnson says he knows nothing about it, hand him a printout of the tweet and ask him to read it. "It's just 10 words, Mr. Speaker. Please read it. Now, what do you think?"

If a Democrat anywhere says something even marginally controversial, Republicans solidify to categorize it as the position of the Democratic Party as a whole, publicize it, and so on.

I sincerely have no idea why Democrats don't do the same about bigotry and religious intolerance by Republicans

in any normal functioning democracy this comment would immediately end his political career

Democrats still get grief for a decade-old “deplorable” comment whereas Republicans acting like the Klan barely hits the news. Bigotry is a career strategy for them.

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

The guys who murdered all those school children sure are having a good time.

Wide angle of an MLB pitcher. Quote reads: "No league has actively made it more difficult to watch their games than MLB has over the last 10 years. It discourages fans from tuning in." Attribution reads: Daniel O., an MLB fan, on the viewing experience.

From @theathletic.com: Baseball has been revitalized by rule changes, but according to our readers, not everything has gotten better.

The legal web of MLB's regional sports network contracts continues to subject nearly 40% of fans we polled to blackouts: nyti.ms/4bazaia

good morning, at the moment I'm typing this, Japan is in the third inning of their first game of the World Baseball Classic, and Shohei Ohtani is 3-for-3 with a grand slam

fair point - it’s hard to put the fifth installment of a series in front of some classics and originals.

parent emailed me asking to set up a meeting with me, her, and her kid’s admin. I said I’m available from 8-8:30 pretty much every morning. She wrote back specific dates when she’s available from 7:30-8:00.

so I guess we’re not meeting.

my first choice of these options would probably be Skyrim, but then again Skyrim probably doesn't exist without Dragon Warrior, so...

The reason they’re called human rights is all human beings have them. If you’re talking about the supposed exclusive rights of the herrenvolk you should use another term or just switch to German entirely.

Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.
