Moved over from X. Mid-westerner. Slava Ukraina! Life-long Dem. Until we fix the right-wing propaganda hold on the populace, things will get rapidly worse.

  1. Y’all out here complaining about Jizzlane Maxwell’s cushy camp cupcake prison digs & work release perks need to remember FL GOP AG’s let Jeffrey Epstein OUT of jail every day so he could go back to his mansion in Palm Beach and molest schoolgirls. Not a joke.

  2. US BUDGET DEFICIT SOARS

    The deficit jumped 19% to $291B in July. This is despite $21B collected from Americans due to higher import taxes, which led to higher costs on goods like furniture, footwear, and auto parts.

    The deficit for 2025 is already $1.63 trillion, up 7% from the last year.

  3. When Hasan Piker bought a $2.7 million house in LA for him and his family to live in, critics said he wasn’t a real socialist because it’s too expensive. When Zohran Mamdani rents a $2,300 a month apartment in NYC, critics say it’s too cheap for him and he’s not a real socialist. It’s all bad faith

  4. Zohran figuratively beating Cuomo to death with his own shoes when he’s like 20 points ahead is how you establish a Fiorello La Guardia level legacy in New York and everyone in politics should be taking notes.

  6. For the record, our division commander BANNED things called “presence patrols” in Iraq.

    “If you don’t have a specific task & purpose, your ‘presence’ doesn’t do anything.”

    National Guard stating they are now doing presence patrols in DC.

    A complete waste of soldier’s time & effort.

  7. I think it’s important to acknowledge that sometimes, the sense of impeding doom is caused by doom that is actually impeding.

    Like I’m tired of people saying it’s an overreaction, there’s fucking Gestapo in the streets:
