No one is a bigger sub than an authoritarian conservative. All they want is to have their strongman step on their neck.

Corporate media and conservatives and neo-liberals are so desperate to frame every discussion around Mamdani as Islamic antisemitism because they know if they talk about his policies he and his ideas would only get more popular.

Vaccines are instructions to kill the virus. Without them the body needs to resort to extreme measures. Like suicide bomb cells that kill both infected cells and healthy cells. Or a prolonged vicious battle that can kill people. Silver bullet and instruction manual vs blowing up the whole building.

The problem is that the way RFK operates he constantly defunds limits access to medicines and vaccines to people. Their war on science at best makes medicine unaffordable. Even if they don’t outright ban it. Which they might.

Think of it like this. You are in a horror movie. In one scenario you have a book that tells you what the monster is and how to kill it. In the other you don’t and must struggle trial and error to kill it hopefully before it kills you. One way is much risker and painful than the e other.

So victims need to fumble through the class action lawsuit scenario, keep winning over and over and over.

But the feds only need to win once and that's it.

Kicker is they cited law from the monarchy era saying courts couldn't put injunctions on the kings of England. So that is where we are.

It takes time, expertise, and money to do a class action lawsuit.

The point of this is that if the people lose a class action lawsuit that is binding. They can't relitigate. That's it. Binding forever.

Trump admin's position on the other hand is they can relitigate it as much as they want.

So the supreme court hearings happened today. Trump's solicitor general made some insane claims.

Basically they want to destroy the entire court system's ability to put injunctions on the admin's criminal behavior.

Instead they want each victim to file a class action lawsuit. Which is harder.

I think a lot of countries are in denial about how bad it is in the US to respond appropriately. Hard to focus on taking advantage when you are praying that the global super power with the back up currency for the world does a sudden turn around and doesn't risk a new dark age.

That gulag is prison labor plus the added benefit of anyone who is sent there is beyond the reach of journalists and lawyers. Dark times ahead for all of us.

You know the people in Elden ring who scream “Let chaos take the world!” And shoot yellow lasers out of their eyes while going insane?

I get them now.

They are the eggs. Also there is no omelette. Just cracked eggs.

Yep. Trump just personally caused a recession. It happened specifically because of him.

Hello Reuters? Yes this is THE JOHN BLOOMBERG. And the markets are let me see here... *flips a coin* Great right now. I'll call back later with an update in 15 minutes.

So apparently a big jump in the market today was Reuters posting fake news from a random tweet claiming tariffs are paused just because the account had the name Bloomberg. So I guess we all need to call into Reuters claiming to be Bloomberg and we can cause trillion dollar swings for fun.

Hey conservatives you doing alright?

"I sleep to the sounds of chains and children weeping."

Stephen Miller was talking about making a private “red state” army to enforce Trump policy on blue cities and states. Just saying.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Its real footage yet it looks AI generated.

"Common sense" is a red flag term for me now. Its what these types call answers they pulled out of their ass.

It should absolutely factor into parole hearings and open opportunities for life after incarceration.

LA fires are being fought with prison labor who are paid pathetic wages.

They should be paid proper wages. Low wage firefighters is incentive to imprison people. There should never be monetary incentive to put people in prison. its there to protect society and rehabilitate people. Not cut costs.

Mike Luckovich gets it right as he always does

James Wood: "I HOPE THERE IS NO CEASEFIRE!"

Monkey paw finger curls, unceasing fire consumes his home.

Billionaires and corporations that rake in endless profit with things like stock buybacks just absorb all the wealth from everything around them until it all collapses.

They are the social and economic equivalent to tumors. Its societal cancer that grows until the host can't support it and dies.

A meme of Luigi Mangione: looking away & shunning a sign that reads “United Healthcare” And smiling & pointing to a sign that reads “Universal Healthcare”

UHC is not a healtheare company. Its purpose is to profit from denying care and pocketing the premium, thereby contributing to mass suffering & DEATH, not health.

So make sure to label it accordingly: It is DEATHCARE

Healthcare insurance companies kill more people than you average terrorist org or warlord.
