In another outrageous act of corporate socialism, Trump's bailout of shitty, money-losing Spirit Airlines with $500 million of American tax dollars should piss off everybody. Not a fucking day goes by that the loathsome piece of shit is not stealing from working class Americans.
This, combined with Lindsey Graham posting about a great call he had with POTUS about Iran five hours ago makes me really nervous.
Todd Blanche is the personification of the banality of evil.
I get the funny feeling the Supreme Court is not eager to take up President Trump's appeal in the E. Jean Carroll case. www.supremecourt.gov/search.aspx...
Greg Sargent notes that the NY Times accepts the bogus "everyone loves their own gerrymandering" idea when Democrats have tried for years to end *all* gerrymandering. Republicans have blocked reform, leaving Dems with the options of gerrymandering or unilaterally disarming, i.e surrendering.
1) shocked, shocked to see that matt stoller is a vicious misogynist
2) it is no surprise that a guy who thinks we should organize the economy around the petit bourgeoisie is a bone deep reactionary
3) he is mostly already sidelined by people who matter because he is a gaping asshole
Even when this dark chapter finally ends, I will never forget the immorality, the criminality, and the pure cruelty we’ve seen in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.
Trump to Fox News: There is no timeline for the war and no need to rush
Living in a high trust society is good, actually
This is insane, tinpot authoritarian shit.

Every single Republican voted against it.
Any "extraordinarily brilliant person" would know his presidency is in free-fall after his disastrous decision to enter another endless war-of-choice in the Middle East & that on November 3rd accountability is coming for the most corrupt criminal Administration in U.S. History.
tick...tick...tick
AOC: “People are getting denied surgeries, medicines, prescriptions are super expensive — and this administration is responsible for it and rewarding them for it — we have to bring it to a stop”

Numerous countries are responding to Trump's skyrocketing energy prices by accelerating the rollout of clean energy infrastructure. South Korea, the Philippines, the European Union, and the U.K. to name a few. Renewables are being implemented at a record pace not despite but because of stupid DJT.
Speedy gun boats….
There is a complete discord between US news and the rest of the world. 3 different international news agencies report that Iran will not entertain any negotiations until the blockade of Iranian ports is lifted.
Do not believe anything the regime in the US is telling you.
This is loser behavior.
Trump more or less never getting challenged on hilarious lies to his face for 10 straight years is completely fucking intolerable
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.
We are now in a war that doesn't seem to have a purpose or end.
Prices are higher than ever.
We are sending jackbooted agents to arrest some of our own citizens.
The media is controlled by oligarchs.
Open racism is now commonplace.
Tell me again how this makes us "Great" again?
republicans will yowl and piss and moan and that to my mind is all the reason to do it
So are we getting an opinion on the birthright case today? bsky.app/profile/atru...
For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.
“To say that President Trump is corrupt is to somehow understate the size, scope and magnitude of his corruption.
It is as if you were to describe a modern thermonuclear device as a ‘bomb.’ That is true enough, but it is not quite the truth. It does not capture the nature of the thing in full.”
My hometown of Nashville -- a blue city which went about two-thirds for Harris-Walz in 2024 -- was gerrymandered by the TN GOP into three different districts all represented by Republicans now, so please get in line to complain about how unfair this all is, Virginia Republicans

The WaPo editorial board when Republicans gerrymander in Texas versus when Democrats gerrymander in Virginia.
