Platner is one of the most stridently antifascist candidates for elected office in the country. The pretense that that isn’t seems to be Zionist cope from one corner and centrist bad faith from another. I don’t mind criticisms of Platner, but they need to have at least a toe in reality
Lmao. Can’t wait for him to clean up in the election
Commonweal, securing a future for white children
Platner has to be the single best Senate candidate this cycle. Bar on the floor, but even so. No wonder the centrists are losing their minds
We could remake Presidents’ Day as being about not just two great presidents, but the founding presidents of the First and Second US Republics, with an eye toward a more badly needed Third.
Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal?
Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…
Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.
Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake.
A person has been diagnosed with measles in Maine for the first time in seven years, state health officials say. on.nbcboston.com/zeQnOnj
Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Today the NYU Catholic Center asked “Is it Ethical to be Rich?”.
NPM was there with the answer.
Fr. NYU, O.P. said: “You may have been handed two flyers upon entrance to this event. The flyer with the charts and graphs is ours, the other was handed out by rogue elements."
The idea that Freud was bought off is monstrously stupid. And distinguishing between early (esp traumatic) memory and fantasy is something that still can’t be done reliably by psychologists.
The history of this idea is in fact very interesting and fraught
OP has a dumb take, but in the development of Freud’s thought, he rejected the hypothesis that everyone with a neurosis was the victim of early childhood sexual abuse by proposing the recollections he uncovered were fantasy. This was the groundwork for developing the concept of Oedipus

6. Weiss presents her mission at CBS as restoring trust by elevating centrist voices, which is accurate enough if we understand "centrist voices" to mean "the type of men likely to hang out with Jeffrey Epstein."
Bilbo looking at his phone top on bottom is ChatGPT After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it? You're absolutely right — you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.
before you take any of the "Trump is pivoting/lamenting/lowering the temperature after the Pretti murder" stories too seriously, absolutely nothing has changed in Minneapolis: "an absolutely brutal day of raids and abductions" says one friend
Leviathan omakase. Leviathan roe. This is the cuisine of Agartha
Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.
Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.
Following the Kent State massacre in May 1970, a Gallup poll showed that 58% of Americans thought the shootings were justified. The night *before* the killings, Ohio's GOP governor described the student protesters this way: "They're the worst type of people that we harbor in America."

oh commuters just found the motherlode of ice agents at a suburban hotel, including, potentially, bovino himself. a bunch of confirmed ICE and CBP cars from the bovino convoy there. spring hill suites in maple grove.

J'ajoute ceci, qui date de quelques jours, dans une vibe plus explicitement catholique.
J'invite mes cathos sûrs à regarder l'esthétique mobilisée par ce groupe :

In its latest act of sacrilege, the nationalist group Catholics for Catholics is presenting U.S. border czar Tom Homan with the "Protector of America Award."
Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask:
"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"
It’s a well-established fact that at more than one time in his life Shapiro has been an agent of the Israeli state. Asking whether he is now is the tamest imaginable follow-up. Because that history alone is disqualifying. (FWIW I don’t think Dem primary voters will tolerate the Zionist victim card)
