“Yeah, I like the fact that the nuclear program is buried under a mountain of rubble,” Watters countered.

“You understand that, like, nuclear material doesn’t just go away because you buried it under a mountain of rubble?” El-Sayed asked back. “You understand they can still go back and bury it out, right?”

Watters said the U.S. was “watching it from Space Force” and that if anyone digs up any nuclear material it will go “kaboom.”

I swear every Fox host with this evening talking head slot just gets dumber and dumber. “Watching it from Space Force”…not “Watching it from Space” or “Space Force will be watching it”… On top of his points being stupid, his grammar is awful.

His supporters would be so mad if they could read

“Our formula is the right formula,” From insisted. […] "Our platform was for the 1990s, not for the 2030s, but the principles are the same.

This man thinks that his Clinton neoliberal ideas are only not selling because of communication issues. Absolutely delusional.

“The democratic socialists want a different system. They don’t want to further democratic values. You look at their platform: they want to get rid of the Senate, the presidency, the supreme court; they want ownership of business; they want to get rid of police; they don’t want to fund the military.”

A quick list of things that are undemocratic:

• The Senate
• The Supreme Court

Another quick list of things that are clearly broken and problematic:

• The presidency (has he looked around lately?)
• The police (I’m sure those protesters are just crisis actors)
• Military spending (as if it weren’t bad enough now we’re staring down the barrel of a 1.5T$ defense budget??)

Oh look, all of the things that he says are bastions of democracy are either inherently undemocratic or in major need of reforms.

“That isn’t the historic Democratic party. It’s not the party of Roosevelt that saved capitalism and saved democracy in the world in World War II. It’s a different ideology, it’s a different party.”

I don’t want to save capitalism. It sucks to be living in this unfettered capitalist hellscape, even if it is better that like…Sudan right now. Israel is supported because it’s a “bastion of democracy (read: capitalism) in the Middle East”, and look what’s happening because of it.

1. “Look at how much money the GOP has on hand and how little the DNC has!”
2. “Well yes, we’re spending it by sending it to the state organizations. You know, because it’s an election year with only state-level offices.”
3. Goto 1

The person is still getting searched. The AG just wants transgender people sexually humiliated while getting searched too.

My favorite are the ones who have been like “He hasn’t said a single word about Palestine since the election!” that I was seeing a few months ago. Even more hilarious with his recent very public statements.

They’ve been TRYING to do show trials the whole time. Comey, fuckin sandwich guy, they just can’t get them to actually stick.*

*(At the federal level, the Texas case is a miscarriage of justice)

Mike Waltz*, aka the same dipshit that added a reporter to a Signal chat about bombing Iran (the first time)

Some More News did a whole episode about how he’s always been like this

Tell me you never have been to CT without telling me you’ve never been to CT, especially outside of Fairfield county.

Mass, NH, CT, Maine, and Vermont (at #1) make up literally half of the top ten. New England is a quality of life powerhouse. I think it’s hilarious that RI didn’t make the list, since everyone forgets about them anyway. I can’t find the full list (only top and bottom 10, so I wonder if they got #11 or 12 and got bumped just off the top 10.

Welcome to CT! It’s nice here.

They can oust the speaker with a very small number of defections that would achieve a majority. There’s no motivation for the minority factions within the majority to do so though - the only chance they have of passing their hardline agenda is by refusing to give the majority the ability to do anything. This isn’t a problem if you have a much larger majority but they’re barely holding onto the title right now.

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

Oh also, fuck you.

A Song of ICE and Fascists

Can’t wait to see Mamdani get pissed about how far the run back to Ornstein and Smough is

This is more than the average fossil car owner pays in gas taxes

I try to drive my ICE car less these days since we have a short-range EV I can use for local runs, but when I was having to fill up my car about once a week, I’d be filling up about 10 gallons, and in CT the gas tax is 25¢/gallon, which works out to exactly $130 annually. Unfortunately that’s state tax and not the federal 18.4¢/gallon, which works out to just under $100 annually.

He originally said it would cost $200M. The cost has already doubled once…

Holy shit my rep Larson actually actively doing something (that yes, will go nowhere, but there should be like 200 impeachment submissions by now for all the things he’s done that are actually impeachable, not to mention the stuff that’s just abhorrent)
