Feels impossible that the refs missed the pass interference call here.

Very few school shooters have gotten the death penalty. Yet the U.S. is trying to charge Luigi Mangione so he gets the death penalty for killing one man. You can kill dozens of kids and get a lesser sentence because their lives don’t matter as much as a CEO’s. That’s America.

Only in a year where #GiselePélicot holds 50 men who raped her to account does a rapist President get named Person of the Year (for the second time). The message is clear: misogyny rewards power, while survivors like Gisele fight to ensure #ShameMustChangeSides.

Candidly folks, you can point fingers all you want, but @JoeTrippi is right here: this defeat has been decades in the making because of the inability - or refusal - of Democrats to seriously try and counter this disciplined rage maching of the other side

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Bill is exactly right.

There are plenty of micro-explanations and micro-excuses for what happened in the presidential election of 2024. And on the margins, any number of them—indeed, almost certainly, a combination of them—made the difference. But their impact was only on the margins. Don’t get me wrong—small margins and the factors that move them do matter, a lot, in elections—particularly in America in the 21st century. They deserve careful analysis, but only to a point.

For the bottom line is that these considerations are not what we must focus on first and foremost today. What deserves the lion’s share of our attention are the facts that a major political party could have even considered nominating Trump despite his manifest criminality, moral depravity, psychological derangement, and cognitive deficiencies and deterioration—and that nearly half the country would have voted for him no matter what he did or said and no matter whom he had run against. That was the ultimate problem in this election, and remains so.

We suffer from a deep sickness in our national polity. Far above all else, before it’s too late, thoughtful Americans of good faith must work together to confront, to better comprehend, and to ultimately address that grave and metastasizing ailment if our great experiment in self-governance is to survive. Scapegoating and blame-assigning about anything else serves no end but to diminish our chances of overcoming our profound national moral crisis.

Would love to dig into “ostracized” at some point. Not being lured via fighting sports, cryptocurrency, betting markets, misogyny and machismo isn’t the same thing as being ostracized.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

He’s not going to make life better for the bulk of the people who voted for him.
Groceries are going to get more expensive, healthcare coverage will be harder to get, their jobs will be less equitable and lower paying, their medications will be impossible to afford, the air they breathe, water they drink and food they eat will be less safe, and their kids will have less access to public education, if they can access it at all.
The women who voted for him will face losing even more rights, the Latinos who voted for him will face deportation, and the blue collar workers who voted for him will face lower wages and more hours for less pay, in unsafe conditions, without overtime.
But so long as they get to hate who they hate, or pull the ladder up behind them, or blame some innocent immigrant for all that ails them… they don’t care. Even if they can’t afford eggs under him either, which by the way, they won’t…

They still won’t care.

If you don't understand why your gay friend is scared right now, then you don't have a gay friend.
You just know a gay person.
