@The_Icarian

Yale is not sending us their best. At least Harvard is trying to make up for it a little.

Looks like hundreds of peaceful (but very loud) #protestors showed up outside the Shillbilly House, aka Shady Vance’s house, in #DC today—chanting, drumming, and embarrassing Shady
Sorry, JD, but no amount of bootlicking or bad takes will silence the sound of #democracy rising

@GottaLaff

so we have Sec of Def randomly texting classified info over an unsecured device and DHS Sec losing her credentials at a restaurant.

seems like that signal group all need to be hauled in for hearings and lose all clearance access right now...

definitely feels like this is just the tip of a security incompetence iceberg and our national security is playing the titanic in this scenario.

@deborahh I'll put it on the list. Priority is the new season of Brokenwood that finally dropped.

@blogdiva

The problem with the #left is so many judgments out there are absolute

But the only way to get #progress in this world is to be relative:

Is someone moving in a good direction, regardless of where they are starting from?

Then you applaud that

That is true #morality

Absolutism is just ego masturbation. It doesn't change the world

So I mourn the passing of #PopeFrancis

I recognize the good he did in the confines he operated in, on issues dear to the left

And so should you

#RIP

@blogdiva I worry that the next one will take the Vatican back 100 years.

Breaking: Pete Hegseth accidentally added journalist to Signal chat discussing JD Vance’s plans to kill the Pope.

@robbienorlyn I can't imagine how I would react to a large group of people dragging a cross past my house and calling me a babykiller as I sit here in my peaceful dotage eating the last of my fucking matzo.

How weird and malignant is that shit?

I've got zero problems with anti-war protests. I've been in many. And I don't have any issue with protesting the Israeli government. All governments are fair game.

Right up until it's not about the Israeli government and it's clear that it's about any physically close enough Jews to harass. Like this shit.

🚨”Trump’s preparing an EO to end ALL African activity & diplomacy in the State Dept, & close ALL embassies on the cont +the dept will end its contract with Howard U, a historically Black inst, to recruit candidates for fellowships, which are to be terminated. The goal of those fellowships has been to help students from underrepresented groups get a chance at entering the Foreign Svc soon after grad-.”

The #Trump regime wants to erase black ppl.

@GreenFire @AlliFlowers And in case their pocket constitution isn't just a collection of blank papers, "Republicans" are doing their job as constitutional cherry pickers.

Ideally, the most clueless person in the world and the President of the United States of America would be two different persons.
