If we can get anything positive out of the tragic shooting of guardsmen in DC, let it be the final word on why “good guys with guns everywhere” will not prevent gun violence.

We can't and shouldn't go back to normal - so what's the plan? - Democratic Underground Forums

The conversation we’re having is woefully inadequate. There’s no going back. We need to be talking about a positive version of forward.

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

The people who insist on what defines a woman are sure as hell ambiguous about what defines a war.

A LOT of shit flooding the zone between “Trump Gaza” and “Trump Gold Cards”

It’s a distraction. Look for what is being buried.

I came to your feed to get the unsanewashed Trump Gold Card quote and found this. New heights in AI obscenity.
WHAT ARE WE BEING DISTRACTED FROM THIS WEEK?

Remind me how many FAA employees got fired yesterday again?

President’s Day is now President Teump Day. Say it right or we’ll ban you from the press room.

And they have proven themselves incapable of the most basic data security protocols required of government contractors.

Feel free to copy and post wherever you find it useful.

To our friends posting "We voted for this": If you want to eliminate birthright citizenship, pass a constitutional amendment. If you want Congress to no longer fund an agency, pass a law through Congress. THIS IS A NATION OF LAWS. WE DO NOT HAVE A KING. Just because you knowingly elected a felon doesn't mean he can ignore all the laws. We know you voted for this. We know you like that he emptied the prisons of 1500 convicted criminals. We know you like acting like there are no more laws for people that agree with you. The rest of us fight for Law and Order. AMERICA: LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT

Elon Musk’s complete disregard for data security should have all of his company’s government contracts cancelled in perpetuity. He’s not even close to meeting the lowest of the standards.

Also Egypt and Jordan wil happily take in all the Palestinians. 🙄

BAM!

I expected at least some takes on how Trump’s Palestine genocide nonsense included “Immigration for thee, not for me.” WRT Egypt & Jordan.

I guess it’s not hypocrisy if you’re consistently racist.

Can we get a supercut of coverage of project 2025 from before the election, and the news from today. Bonus points for usage of the cartoonish book skits from the DLC or Harris herself

We pledge allegiance to a nation with liberty and justice for all. The current regime and its supporters are by definition are un-American by kindergarten standards.
4/4

And now half the country loudly celebrates the fact that one criminal will never see justice. Loudly proclaiming that is is patriotic to deny liberty to others, with no process and no justice. To release criminals who were convicted. They are proud of it, and they dare call themselves patriots.

Over the last 50-100 years, through significant sacrifice and struggle from the preceding generations we have made incremental progress. More justice. More liberty. Miles to go.

My whole life black, queer, and other “othered” kids (and yes, all females) have been standing next to white male kids having to say they pledge allegiance to a “nation with liberty and justice for all” knowing full well that these words were aspirational at best, and a cruel lie at worst.

This is truly awful, in a hilarious can't-look-away car crash kind of way. It is not the WORST Christmas recording ever. There are many worse ones. It's for sure a real bomb to drop in your randomizer, and that's why it's a favorite in our household. www.youtube.com/watch?v=txpd...
