And by “different” you mean incorrect, inaccurate, batshittery”??

Alan Dershowitz's defection to the Republican Party could have a chilling effect on Democrats' ability to recruit authoritarian pro-Netanyahu pedophiles who continually go on Fox News to praise Donald Trump.

Not a penny to make life more affordable for American families, but $70 BILLION for ICE to terrorize our communities.

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement. Someone keeps making perfectly-timed bets right before the President speaks. The victims are your pension, your 401(k), and the country I took an oath to defend.

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

I am once again saying that letting fascists back into society when they pretend to be repentant like this will lead to the rise of fascism again. They are upset because Trump has made them look like the fascists they are. This does not mean they are on the side of morality and human rights suddenly

Imagine a California where families and workers don't just survive, they flourish. That’s the roadmap. 

Better schools, housing that’s affordable, cleaner air, and a health care system that sees you as a human being first.

Let’s make it happen.

Not yet, apparently

Amen

The media blackout of Jared Kushner’s historic, ongoing corruption scandal As Trump's son-in-law returns to Pakistan for more talks with Iran, major news outlets are largely ignoring an egregious conflict of interest.

1. As Jared Kushner heads to Pakistan to represent the United States in critical talks with Iran, the media is ignoring a historic corruption scandal.

Kushner is serving in this role while on the payroll of the Saudi government.

Let's look at the data.

Gave me a great big smile. Kind, decent people who enjoy children. I miss that.

Oh yeah

"When Trump says, *look at me, I might be like the late great Jesus, even better. He rose on the third day, I could have done it in two*, they're like, well, you know, it's a little out there, but I do like that he's edgy."

@jvl.bsky.social joins @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social on The Focus Group:

Ross Douthat's complicit mind President Trump attacked the Pope for opposing war. The NYT's in-house Catholic intellectual responded says that, actually, this is all very complicated.

I could not help myself and I wrote about why Ross Douthat compares (poorly) with a Catholic intellectual who sold his soul to literal Stalinists.

A small cohort of ("prominent"?) law professors are trying to portray John Eastman as some kind of innocent victim of viewpoint discrimination, and his disbarment as some kind of assault on the First Amendment.

That's complete and utter bollocks. As usual, @gabrielmalor.bsky.social brings receipts:

Great book

The Founders Were Not Who They're Telling You They Were Christian nationalists keep rewriting the founding. The historical record keeps disagreeing.

“The Constitution does not invoke Jesus. It does not establish prayer. It protects conscience. The republic they built was not a Christian nation. It was something rarer and harder…”

conservative free speech is when they speak and you listen or suffer the consequences

These guys really think their whole job is to do their special, evil projects. They have no interest in actually governing.

Where’s Pam Bondi?

Talking about Donald Trump having dementia just gives a sympathetic excuse for inexcusable preexisting conditions. Donald has *always* been a mean, self-centered, incoherent fool who says stupid and ignorant things.

I am proud to say that Democracy Docket does not publish on Substack. www.democracydocket.com

Peter Magyar confirmed that Szijjarto, Orbán's FM, has barricaded himself with some of his closest colleagues and is shredding documents related to the sanctions on Russia any other evidence of treason.

TRUMP WANTS TO SPEND $1.5 TRILLION ON THE PENTAGON WHILE CUTTING FUNDING FOR: * CANCER RESEARCH * INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL * ENERGY ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS * PRESCHOOL DEVELOPMENT * FOOD FOR BABIES AND CHILDREN * SMALL BUSINESSES * HIGHER EDUCATION * K-12 SCHOOLS * NASA

Our federal budget is a statement of our values.

What's in Donald Trump's budget?

Cuts to cancer research and food for little babies.

And $1.5 TRILLION to the Pentagon to be sucked up by defense contractors and Trump's forever wars.

Made me laugh out loud

Cardinal Cupich: "We're dehumanizing the victims of war by turning the suffering of people & killing of children & our own soldiers into entertainment. To splice together movie cuts w/ actual bombings & targeting of people for purposes of entertainment is sickening. This is not who we are."

zackeryatlas 12h The degradation of society: 1. Celebrating the k!lling of a CEO 2. Cheering on warehouse arsons 3. Making heroes out of people who attempt political violence You can be outraged at the system and still not glorify violence. These aren't wins. This is a society losing its moral compass. [Coming from a liberal btw]

I don’t know how people keep forgetting that workers rights were entirely written in blood and the capital class had to be threatened with violence before they agreed to things like 8 hour working days and 2 day weekends.

Same. My kids tried to persuade me. No go.

This must hit so hard if you’re incredibly stupid.
