    Trump has said he wants Californians dead. He has withheld disaster aid, a step likely to result in the deaths of Californians. I think it&#39;s reasonable to conclude that he in fact wants to kill Californians.

    I wrote about Trump&#39;s 9/11 lies. He&#39;s been spewing this nonsense for decades. He lies out of entitlement &amp; self aggrandizement and &quot;believes&quot; his own lies for the same reason. His cognitive failure is a result of moral failure, not the other way around. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/trumps-911... Trump’s 9/11 Lies Are A Moral ...

    Hinojosa is benefiting from being the one brave enough to take on Abbott. A lot of higher profile people (with bigger fundraising potential, perhaps) passed on it RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:wjvc76fsrmfqqtx5vuia7lrf/post/3ms756rkwkk2h

    people often respond to trump&#39;s low polls with disbelief that he has any support. I wrote about this here. Trump has support for 2 reasons: 1. fascism has a constituency 2. partisanship is powerful. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/why-isnt-t... Why Isn’t Trump (Even) Less Po...

    I cannot emphasize enough that Musk lies absolutely all the time, and he is lying here. Harris overperformed compared to incumbent parties globally; overperformed in swing states where campaigns were active. If Musk did anything, he reduced Trump&#39;s margins and made him almost lose. 1 RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:cgr5t5olvdjtunrf6gzcs5os/post/3mrdl66ord22x

    Musk did not just decide not to provide people with life saving aid. He *broke the law* in order to *deny promised aid*. 1

    this is an excellent piece, though I think the repeated insistence that Trump is much less destructive than Hitler is not really taking into account the USAID catastrophe, which is where the current admin is in fact putting up Hitler like death counts. www.programmablemutter.com/p/gooning-to... &quot;Gooning Towards the Führer&quot; a...

    I wrote about why D primary voters are choosing candidates critical of Israel and AIPAC. It&#39;s because Israel has strongly aligned itself with Trump and D primary voters loathe trump.

    the core problem is that Ds (rightly) think that Israel&#39;s current policies are immoral and evil, that the Netanyahu govt is an enemy of Democrats (which it is), and that (as Pritzker says) AIPAC is a MAGA front. 1 RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:uo2fna47c4v6zcnklxfhcvjb/post/3moyxb2q6x22f

    the reason these kinds of articles are so possible is because it&#39;s seen as an acceptable way to do gross misogyny. RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:2n4hrjv7fhqzps2ii45gsq3l/post/3mqjnezbzco2v

    it&#39;s pretty nuts to be making this argument right now, literally the day after they shot a random person to death in the street in her state just to show they could. RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:uo2fna47c4v6zcnklxfhcvjb/post/3mqnnxdrtq22k

    wrote about why ICE keeps killing people. it&#39;s because they&#39;re part of a pretty explicitly genocidal project. trump wants them to kill people, and so they do. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/ices-missi... ICE’s Mission Is Murder

  • View post

    yeah; the media tends to treat Trump&#39;s wildly racist and genocidal statements as one embarrassing thing over here, and ICE murders as a more serious thing over there. 1 RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:u6ajzyiqzkzbppp2x2y7fpfu/post/3mqmk5uh4as2g

    has anyone pointed out that the claim that haitian immigrants are eating pets is a form of blood libel?

  • View post

    trump seemed to be trying to dial down both ICE violence and the war in Iran in order to maybe improve GOP approval before midterms. but of course he has no patience or ability to strategize, so we&#39;re ramping both up right as we come into the midterm general election campaign.

    oh looks like David Costello is running too. he&#39;s also someone I like, though hard to see him getting the party nod. www.cbsnews.com/news/maine-d... Here&#39;s who&#39;s vying to replace ...

    I guess I should be explicit. I like David and have learned a lot from him. He was not the worst platner booster, but he did in fact boost platner long after he should have known better, and now he&#39;s whining and moaning about how they&#39;re choosing the replacement. 1 RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:nztbvvo2gl4227zuxjf7gog3/post/3mq6bmvxwtk2i

    obligatory reminder that Columbus chopped off people&#39;s hands because they wouldn&#39;t give him enough gold and set dogs to attack children. Italians should no more venerate him than Germans venerate Hitler. RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:2rrp7amblhg3xoly5n5huiqv/post/3mqcjtr6dpk22

    Mehdi&#39;s failure to say anything about Platner and Zeteo&#39;s role in defending him is really disappointing.

    if you want to know why Dore/Kasparian/Taibbi/Cenk/Stoller/Greenwald get worse and worse and worse, it&#39;s because they&#39;re all basically trying to be Rush Limbaugh and to be Rush Limbaugh you need to be Rush Limbaugh.

    notably also the posts where he attacked survivors of sexual assault were a problem before we found out about the sexual assaults. RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:6hit5rjdbmlnscmuk4bbtmuc/post/3mq3wweak3c2z
