No, Graham Platner is not relatable. He's not like most guys. Most guys don't have the skeletons in their closets that he does.
Stop letting politics make you psycho.
NY's last big "moratorium" was on fracking. The "study" took 4 years. It was originally about the (considerable) water use. The moratorium turned into a ban.
When the industry came up with a waterless method, Albany banned that too.
These people are simply broken.
No, Evan, physical violence towards your significant other is not a common everyday experience.
These people are revealing far more about their own messed up relationships than they are about public opinion.
@evanwch What? Maybe I dont understand progressives but uh, no most of us in fact have not locked our significant others in a room until they "calmed down"
Either: A) Graham Platner is lying (again!)
or B) Graham Platner was the last person on earth to find out what his own tattoo meant and everybody saying he knew what it was is a liar
Tough call
Lots of pro russian Irish people telling me to ‘go to the front lines & leave Ireland’
I’ve just come here from Nikopol. The press armour is still in my bag. I watched Russian drones hunt civilians with my own eyes. That’s why the indifference here is so despicable, especially while Ireland still supplies alumina to Russias war machine.
I’m not going anywhere. This investigation continues
The Covid-19 pandemic started at a wet market that "just happened" to be close to not one but two Chinese state-run laboratories doing research on coronaviruses found in bats.
President Biden's schedule only had events between 10 am and 4 pm on weekdays, which "just happened" to make it appear that he was succumbing to old age, and he "just happened" to have an unprecedented bad night during his lone debate in 2024.
The sleazy guy who keeps blaming oligarchs and AIPAC for everything "just happened" to "accidentally" get a tattoo of the Nazi SS.
Most of my professional work in this decade has involved dispelling this absolute BS gaslighting from people who think that the general public is stupid and gullible.
Thomas Massie: “There is zero evidence that Iran was trying to build a nuclear weapon, Netanyahu is warmongering.”
The Deputy Speaker of the Iranian Parliament: “We tried to develop nuclear weapons, but couldn't keep it secret.”
When your brother was head of CBS News he fired Scott Pelley as nightly news anchor and cleared out his office while he was away on assignment for 60 Minutes.
"It's not the correct way to treat the face of CBS News." https://t.co/ESDmp6Q9MA
“Internal polling suggests Paxton could lose in November. The Enterprise has seen those numbers. And they have reached the only conclusion they are capable of reaching: if Paxton loses, it will be because something nefarious happened, not because they backed a candidate facing federal securities fraud charges whose approval rating has cratered, not because they chose the wrong horse. Something nefarious.”
Exactly what Trump wanted: someone to give him an excuse for not finishing the job. Iran never had any incentive to sign a deal or negotiate in good faith—but now, they will pile on maximum humiliation, and make Trump grovel.
Usually, it takes a while for the mistakes of a superpower to really surface. But the scale of this disastrous, totally self-inflicted shitshow is in another category.
Citizens United is a red herring. It was plainly correct and that it was 5-4 was genuinely stunning.
Leave Citizens United alone. Repeal McCain-Feingold instead. That’s something Congress can actually do.
Tom Steyer keeps running around saying that it’s unfair that billionaires like him can buy our democracy, then spending hundreds of millions dollars to do just that, then failing to get elected, and then repeating all the same lines the next time around. It’s extremely funny.
