  Somebody tried to torch the Governor of Pennsylvania's home while he and his family were in it and how that isn't the top story today along with I don't know, a question to Trump as to why he hasn't deployed the FBI to investigate (or called the Governor to check on him) is beyond me. A scratched Tesla is terrorism. The attempted murder of a Democrat, just fine it seems. Suspect arrested after arson at Pennsylvania governor’s house forced Shapiro and family to e...

  Folks not being able to get their meds is the next chapter. Imposing major tariffs on pharmaceuticals particularly those manufactured in or sourced from China would be nothing short of catastrophic for the United States. The American pharmaceutical supply chain is deeply dependent on China for raw materials, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and even finished drugs. Catastrophic. But hey, libs were owned.

  It's really important that every single Republican who refuses to act to stop this wanton destruction of the American economy be held responsible. They could make this stop tomorrow if they had any semblance of care or love for our country. They're destroying our country for Trump. The next round of Trump’s tariffs could hurt even more.

  I mean, I haven’t talked to everyone because that would obviously take awhile but I feel pretty sure no one thinks egg prices are getting too low except maybe some price gougers.

  The amount of MAGA followers that aimlessly believe every single reduction in government workforce is a necessary elimination of wasteful spending kills me. To be clear, kills me less literally than the way these decisions are likely to affect the lives of millions of Americans. And this will be one of the justifications for other countries not importing U.S. produce, dairy, or meat.

  Senator Chris Van Hollen acted with strength. He showed respect for the government of El Salvador, worked with the embassy, and used local press and social media to document his work. He used international law relevant to the case. May this be a lesson for do something folks. It takes politicking for politics. It takes patience and wisdom to be effective. We should want people like him to work for us. US Senator Van Hollen meets wrongly deported man in El Salvador | https://www.reuters.com/wo...

  Nearly two dozen states are suing the Trump administration over its cancellation of a $7 billion grant program created by President Biden to expand solar energy in low-income communities but people on this app will still try and tell you electing Trump or Biden would have been the same.

  A couple of people are still confused about how right wing judges got where they are so here’s Rep. Ocasio-Cortez explaining it from over the weekend. It’s only 30 seconds long but if you’re too busy, I’ll summarize: Republicans did it.

  The only source for the incorrect initial report was Hamas. People have spent days shouting the wrong information on TV and social media. Some did more than shout. Some rioted outside Israeli embassies. Someone tried to burn down a synagogue in Berlin. Someone did burn down a synagogue in Tunisia. The truth is important. It’s not a situational thing.

  This is great news. This ban covers 221,898 acres of federal land that provides wildlife habitat and cleaner air and water for surrounding communities. The Biden-Harris administration has enacted a very large number of environmental and climate protection measures. It’s important that we reelect them to preserve and further this kind of progress.

  @Tengrain If a person can’t fill out a piece of paper to try and help stop all this, their claim to “moral superiority” is less than zero.

  @liferstate Dumbassery is the only thing I can come up with. If either Joe Biden or Kamala Harris were President, we would not be waking up every other day to news of the U.S. carrying out unauthorized, illegal bombings and wars and no amount of smugness from some wacko can change that fact.

  @Tengrain If you did something stupid like try and depress the vote for Harris, at least own up to it. But these idiots have no morality. Just the superiority part, unearned.

  @Tengrain “What I want won’t ever be possible and I will never vote for you but I also want you to completely capitulate to every demand and will attack and demand power over everyone who doesn’t agree with me. Also, I’m not a tankie authoritarian. I just want to be in charge of everything and not compromise and use violence against everyone who disagrees.”

  Once again, I sure wish people would have figured this out before they let him back in, but 9-0 is a victory margin I can live with.

  There are two very wrong, very dangerous claims being made in my mentions right now. One is that nothing ever happens on gun safety. The other is that Democrats have done nothing on the issue. There’s even an odd third one claiming Democrats haven’t been bipartisan enough on it. These claims are not only wrong but dangerous to efforts to elect people to office who will bring more change. They’re dangerous to efforts to save more lives. Don’t spread such things if you care about helping. 1/3

  As I wake up to news of Trump bombing Iran by the side of Netanyahu, fuck you to every single person who voted for Trump or couldn’t bother to vote for Kamala Harris, the other only option who could win and who wouldn’t be doing any of this and you know it.
