Chain of fools

In the movie Nuremberg, these quotes stood out.

"I'm quite certain there are people in America who would willingly climb over the corpses of half the American public if they knew they could gain control of the other half".

Also,

"The only clue to what man can do is what man has done".

Omg, that looks delicious!

Utah Supreme Court upholds fairer map for midterm elections, rejects GOP appeal That fairer map creates a district where Democratic voters can meaningfully compete.

🚨BREAKING: In a decisive win for voters, the Utah Supreme Court dismissed the GOP legislature’s appeal in the state’s landmark redistricting case — clearing the way for a fairer congressional map to be used in the 2026 elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Kevin Leary is living proof that just because you love to hear yourself talk doesn’t mean you should talk when the topics are over your head.

It’s a marketing ploy. The GOP will run ads saying democrats are against saving America. They’ve underestimated our intelligence for far too long.

That smug bitch Bondi is using the DOW reaching 50,000 to answer a question about the Epstein investigation. She has a whole binder of insults to lob; she’s not even listening to the questions anymore. Just pick an insult at random and wait for a Republican to let her filibuster.

Kids, learn to read cursive.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

Mad King Orange keeps saying Iceland when he means Greenland. Unless he’s after them too. God forgive us.

This is completely fucking unacceptable. Shut this terrorist government down until it stops brutalizing its own citizens.

Maybe statements like that are why everyone has such disdain for him.

Serious question about transgender athletes. Since sex isn’t binary (although a lot of people seem to think it is), why not have physical rules for each sport, like wrestling does today? Could be height, weight, muscle mass, or whatever; min and max. Leave sex out of it and see what happens.

Dr. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has written many powerful works, but this one stopped me dead in my tracks when I first read it. Please take the time, and share widely.

The ICEtapo

Somebody needs to compile these into a blooper reel. Perhaps some day when we’re able to laugh again.

Dear media, in regards to the murder of Renee Cook: it’s not “the admin is setting the narrative”. It’s “gaslighting”. She did not “flee the scene” like a common criminal. She tried to leave peacefully. Trump is not “incorrect”, he’s lying. Same for Noem.

It’s time to speak clearly.

I just called a MAGA friend a snowflake because he didn’t like me comparing our current state in the US to the Holocaust. And it felt good.

all my life I was told that America had the greatest system of government ever — but all I can see is one party high-fiving itself over the state-sponsored murder of its citizens, and the other party impotently writing strongly-worded letters about it. WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK

👇👇

So many white people are just now realizing that if they were murdered on the street in cold blood by a masked agent of the state, their family members would tell the media, “she just should have complied.”

I’m not as afraid of my government as I am of my neighbors.

There, I’ve said it. Their morals have disappeared, and their only value seems to be protecting their leader at all costs.

How did this happen? Did we teach them? When did winning an argument become more important than compassion?

No words.

Officer 1: “Get out of the car!”
<simultaneously>
Officer 2: “Get out of here!”

The confusion is not surprising. The shooting officer had his phone out too.

This deserves a clear and fair investigation

Great, but if the Senate won’t convict, why bother? It’s what got him reelected.

The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.

Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.

There are 599 police officers in Minneapolis. And now there are now more than 2000 ICE agents with 100 more coming.

And you think that local police should assist ICE in their operations?

Give me a break.
