OK, I'm off to where the skies are bluer. I'm bhurt42 over there if anyone cares. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I should have done this a while ago.

It sounds brutal because it is- but I'm hoping the lesson this time will be incredibly painful. Because we don't seem to be able to learn any other way. I'm just sorry that so many are going to be hurt or killed in teaching the lesson.

They're the military people who are going to die invading Iran or Panama or Greenland or (god help me, I can't believe I have to say this, but that movie was a JOKE god damn it) Canada.

Democrats handed Trump this TikTok win on a platter by picking up right-wing arguments and running with them. It’s the same thing they’re doing on immigration right now. It turns out that moving right legitimizes and helps the right!

No - Israel does not get to choose who leads Palestinians or governs any part of Palestine.

I hate to say it, but if Trump's henchmen within DOJ wanted to destroy a record, they would not be concerned about the law that makes it illegal to dispose of a record that had been requested under FOIA. Trump and his crew have not been deterred by any other laws so far.

"Vote blue no matter who" really means "vote oligarchy no matter who"- but it also means "vote lose no matter who".

But this gets back to the oligarchy problem. The oligarchy doesn't want us to spend money on non-oligarchs. The oligarchy supports the war in Gaza (because of all the money oligarchs are going to make getting Gaza land for pennies on the dollar).

But you won't hear Chris Hayes say jack about any of this.

Why? Ask this question: who owns MSNBC?

Right.

[Brian Hurt @bhurt42]

Rant on. OK, the A block of Chris Hayes last night on Biden's farewell address and oligarchy has me seeing red. The Oligarchy- in Chris's telling, anyways- is the tech bros. Musk, Bezos, etc.

[Brian Hurt @bhurt42]

For example, I see that admist all the people saying (however sotto-voice) "Bernie may have been right", that the Democrats are trying to purge AOC again.
