they should invent an election where you watch the results and don’t want to kiII yourself

[Jaime Harrison @harrisonjaime]

Damn! Has anyone over there ever taken a political science course or at the very least just used Google?!

“Since enactment, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 has been reauthorized and amended five times with large, bipartisan majorities.” The reauthorization/amendment dates include: 1970, 1975, 1982, 1992, and 2006.

Guess which party is holding up the latest reauthorization?! Just guess.

@RightWingCope Never surrender! Here’s a picture of me literally surrendering to the state of Georgia.

Dusty does a good deed. Good thing Jason Ravnsborg wasn’t driving past.

if you drop a chicken cutlet on the floor it absorbs all kinds of dirt & particles that make it undesirable. Thats sort of how AI works

49th in the nation in teacher pay, and she uses our tax dollars to put her face on a car…twice. Embarrassing.

[A.R. Moxon 🦋 @JuliusGoat]

If your opponent is willing to break convention, rules, decorum, and laws to capture a branch of government and you do not oppose them, they will win cheaply and learn that those tactics are effective, while others will believe that those tactics must be normal.

Good thing they took the blue checks away from the serious journalists and gave them to the angry virgins with eight dollars

[regular steve albini @electricalWSOP]

Indulging the "DEBATE ME!" shitheels does nothing to further the truth. It is exhausting because its purpose is to exhaust you and no credible person should do it.

[A.R. Moxon 🦋 @JuliusGoat]

The invitation to explain yourself to somebody who has demonstrated a clear unwillingness to understand is not as attractive a proposition as many seem to think.

It’s an expression of contempt, and need not be honored or even acknowledged.

Folks should take the time to read Gorsesch concurrence which ends with this banger - big proud day for America here

[Matthew Gertz @MattGertz]

Republicans spent years in a scenario in which the best thing for each of them individually was to support Trump's most reprehensible behavior, even as the best thing for the party as a whole was to get rid of him, and now here we are...

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

I honestly think Gorsuch deserves a lot of credit for his righteous defense of Indian Tribal Sovereignty. He's the best justice, maybe in history, on this issue.

I just wish, so deeply, that he thought women and black people deserved the same respect.

[Will Saletan @saletan]

Republicans in Congress, 2017-2021: No, I won't comment on Trump's tweet, because I haven't read it.

Republicans in Congress, 2023: Yes, I'll comment on the Trump indictment—it's outrageous—even though I haven't read it.

People of all ages cherish the notion that the right way to do things is or was how things were done when they were feeling most in the ascendant. Or in some imaginary time when everything actually worked.
