@Dumfukdetector I know you for one welcome two more years of unfettered MAGATrumpism, but spare me the moralistic BS, bud. You're invested in helping Collins win and MAGA keeping the Senate. Who's paying you?
@emkenobi I got a whole lot to say about fucking Keith Kidwell since I live in NC.
Here’s the background of this whole ass thing..
This isn’t Keith Kidwell’s first proposed bill for limiting abortion access to women and suggesting the death penalty for it.
Republicans in North Carolina just proposed a bill that says if a woman is caught with an IUD or attempts to get an abortion then men are allowed to use DEADLY FORCE to try and stop her. They are proposing a bill that will allow men to kill women for using birth control. It’s House Bill 1232. Keith Kidwell is the Republican who proposed the bill. He claims it counts as self defense to use deadly force to stop abortion. This is a man who claims to be pro life. Feel free to give his office a call and let him know how you feel about his opinion.
And for anyone who says “obviously this will never get passed” that’s not the point. The point is it’s fucking insanity that a government official would even try to make a law like this. It’s insanity that there are men out there who are trying to make it legal to kill women for making decisions for their own bodies. This is real and it’s happening right now in front of our eyes.
@saikatc@Mtclai@gilduran76@MLNow When you want to run a candidate and they need a job fast, get them an emergency teaching credential. When you want to run a candidate and you need street cred fast, move them to a district. Move fast, run people. It’s inorganic community organization but it’s highly calculated.
@saikatc@Mtclai@gilduran76@MLNow Saikat will not be able to provide a good answer to why he donated to Michael Lai (esp. over Chyanne Chen) because there is no good answer. If he answers he wasn’t informed, was misinformed, or was naive, well, that’s disqualifying, too. That’s the way it is. It’s pretty simple.
@saikatc@Mtclai@gilduran76@MLNow I’ve been diligently and consistently warning about the Network State since 2023 and I’m saying as loud as I possibly can now that @saikatc’s 2024 campaign contributions to @Mtclai are wholly disqualifying and inexcusable. The Network State wants sovereignty.
@saikatc@Mtclai@gilduran76@MLNow On November 15, 2024, I noted Accelerate SF (who turned into DOGE) had morphed into Accelerate X, “a modern OS for the US government,” and they were talking about integrating AI to reduce bottlenecks. ⬇️
@saikatc@Mtclai@gilduran76@MLNow On November of 2024, @mtclai, who moved to D11 in February 2024, lost the supervisor race to Chyanne Chen. And on November 14th, 2024, he went off about election bottlenecks.
@saikatc@Mtclai@gilduran76@MLNow Near the end of Lai’s thread on Bottlenecks, his “elegant” redesigns are: Reducing vote by mail, pressuring USPS, using AI instead of manual signature matching, increasing the threshold to place props on the ballot, changing city hiring, and using the “Billy Graham” Auditorium.
So let me get this straight.
Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.
Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.
Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.
Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.
And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”
Please.
Secretary Mullin crashes out, accuses Rep. Green of calling him a racist, while Green tells him repeatedly to "shut up."
Like many Americans, Rep. Green does not have the patience for Mullin's nonsense.
@SonnyBunch You and your fellow Republicans at duh Bulwark are a bunch of Puritan anti-Platner scolds who are tut-tutting about his supposed lack of moral character, so it takes a prude to know a prude, Prudence! 🤣🤣
If you don’t live in SF you didn’t pay attention when people like Elon Musk, Garry Tan, and Saikat dumped enormous sums of tech money into a local supervisor’s race to remove a tenants’ rights attorney from the board, but as a renter in that district I will never forget.
All 100% accurate Robert. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
"So, by the time the candidate ran for president of the United States, not a single human being had ever come to a presidential candidacy with more experience and more first-class qualifications in all of American history.
The candidate ran against the least qualified candidate in the history of the United States. Not only had this unqualified candidate never held any elective office of any kind, he was also a bigot, a fool, a sleazy draft dodger and a tinhorn conman. Above all, he was a psychopathic criminal.
And our candidate lost to him. Why did our candidate lose, you ask? I’ll tell you.
It was because our candidate belonged to the one group of human beings more discriminated against than any other. You’ll notice I said “group” and not “minority.”
It’s because the candidate was a woman, and women comprise more than 50% of the population of the United States of America.
The candidate was Hillary Rodham Clinton, of course.
It is a sad reality, and a towering indictment of the misogynist bigots in the United States that had Hillary Clinton been a man she would have kicked Trump’s ass. All the Comey letters, Benghazis and emails on earth couldn’t have stopped a male Hillary Clinton from kicking Trump’s ass.
Trump beat two brilliant and highly qualified women in two separate presidential races. The only person to hand Trump a loss was an old white guy who, though well qualified himself, was a little past his prime.
Forgive me, sisters and brothers, if I briefly dive down into what Heather Cox Richardson calls a rabbit hole. I am heartily sick and tired of all the historically revisionistic Biden bashing crap that has gone on of late in the progressive media.
They constantly apologize for the man when there was absolutely nothing to apologize for. Joe Biden was an extraordinary President, and he and Kamala Harris made an extraordinary team. End of rabbit hole."

@burgessev Platner is being crucified by leftnuts for imagined affronts to civil society and an apparent lack of adequate contrition (newsflash: none of you will be satisfied by anything short of forcing him out), none of which hold up to scrutiny; they want their Trump and their MAGA.
