Telling folks not to talk about politics at Jesse Jackson’s funeral is like telling players not to talk about football at John Madden’s funeral.

"We are the 'normal people' and we oppose the small minority of 'abnormal people' never goes well."

It’s right there in the plain text of Project 2025.

“We want it to make it illegal to expose children to pornography, and by that we mean anything at all to do with trans people.”

Now, of course, they’re trying to do that.

If you didn’t think that was a good enough reason to vote D, I hate you.

Yes I’m vote shaming you. Your vote was shameful.

May you suffer.

"Working class" and "anti-establishment" is an aesthetic, not a coherent political movement. Platner fits it and Newsom doesn't.

That's all there is to it.

Also, the overlap between people on here saying, "I'll never vote for Gavin Newsom as a candidate, ever," and then turning right around and saying, "Yeah, Platner has a Nazi tattoo, but he supports M4A and opposes Israel*, and that's all that matters" is pretty noticeable.

So much online conservatism these days is just "I miss being a kid"

If elected, PLATNER. *WILL.* BE. THE. NEW. FETTERMAN.

MARK THIS POST.

The year is 2029. The Democrats FINALLY have the White House and 60 Senate seats, but they're STILL not quiiiiite filibuster-proof because Platner keeps voting with the Republicans. All the leftists who endorsed Platner blame Schumer.

Seriously, mark this post. I've rarely been more confident.

The Berniebros gave us Tulsi, Fetterman, and now Platner.

Some days, the only small bit of comfort I take is the knowledge that even though Trump will most likely evade serious consequence, he will 100% let every last monster he has enabled get crushed under the bus.

It'll be the J6 arrests all over again, and this time he won't be able to pardon them.

A federal judge in DC rules that Kari Lake was not lawfully appointed and that actions she took as the claimed head of USAGM "shall have no force or effect," including last August's RIFs at the Voice of America.

And when all these publications dissolve, Google will have nothing to scrape for new information.

Killing jobs and killing industries that will eventually lead to their own demise.

Tomorrow Never Dies at 9: The villain is just a reporter who wants to cause chaos for ratings? Weak.

Tomorrow Never Dies at 38: Holy shit, this movie was prophetic.

Trump now blocking terror threat warnings because it makes him look bad.

“They don’t want anything getting out that says what they’re doing in Iran is raising the threat level at home.”

You know what actually delays necessary changes? Self-righteous "progressives" helping Republicans take power because Democrats don't fix everything instantaneously.

Kamala Harris gets to say, “I’m not saying ‘I told you so,’ but I told you so” as often as she wants, for as long as she lives.

In other words please please please please PLEASE everyone stop voting like 14-year-olds who hate their parents.

Is it just me or does she look like AOC?

They treat the "system" like Satan. A vague, all-encompassing evil that allows them to avoid complicated, nuanced analysis of actual problems.

Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

Ah so he is standard dem, run on big plans then bend over backwards the minute trump says so 101 28 ..• Skuzy @skuzy15/2.bsky.social • 44m No he's a dsa leftist populist grifter. Like many people warned so don't fucking blame democrats for that mess. People don't like Dems cause they refuse to over promise shit they know they can't accomplish, so stupid ass Americans get upset and vote for grifters who LiE to them thinking someone Skuzy @skuzy1572.bsky.social Saying all the right things will be better than the dem telling them the truth...that shit takes time and can only happen when enough people do THEIR part and vote for enough democratic leaders to make things happen. But white people are too dumb selfish and lazy to get the fucking message.

Mamdani fans are losing their shit over what he can’t accomplish from his over promises. He was pushed onto us by white leftists and the gentrifying class in New York City. Black women warned yall he was over promising and he was lying. And now yall are once again blaming democrats.

They are the left wing, secular equivalent of televangelists.

A conversation with an old friend from college crystallized one of my hopes for the post-Trump era: That we will no longer treat populist criticisms of “the system” or “the powerful” or “elites” as inherently valid, but instead interrogate the motives and ends of populist figures and movements.

Condoleezza Rice spotted going to the White House: report Condoleezza Rice, who served as a state secretary under former President George W. Bush, was seen going to the White House on Friday, according to reports.

And now this is happening.

Leftists can't organize effectively because they can't accept the reality that getting large numbers of people to work together requires compromise.

...

You see why I always vote blue and encourage people to understand why, now?!!!

Like, what kind of person talks like this about children getting bombed?!!!

BUT KAMALA TALKED TO LIZ CHENEY!!!!!
